Abstract

Since man has been curious and concerned about anything probably he has been curious and concerned about man. It seems logical that man's ability to speculate, question and reason would be turned toward the understanding of himself and others. It further seems logical that since modern man is a creature of work, man has sought to understand the aspect of his being which is associated with work. Current literature reflects the opinion that an individual's personality is a key consideration in his job success. The conclusions of recent studies have been that a theory of occupational choice must account for an individual's “style of life” (Armatas and Collister, 1962, Adams, 1969, and Sherman, 1972). The results of these studies indicated that there is a subtle relationship between emotional adjustment and vocational behavior and the individual's resultant relative feeling of well-being.
