RFVII-3: Reading-Free Vocational Interest Inventory, Third Edition

Description:

The RFVII-3: Reading-Free Vocational Interest Inventory, Third Edition is a nonverbal measure of vocational interests of users from Grade 5 through adult. It uses illustrations of individuals engaged in different occupations to measure the vocational likes and dislikes of students and adults who have intellectual disabilities or learning disabilities, are struggling readers, or anyone who prefers a pictorial display. No reading or writing is required.

The RFVII-3 is easy to administer and score. Although there is no time limit, it can be administered in 15 to 30 minutes to groups or individuals, with options for paper or online administration with online scoring. For each of the 80 items, examinees select the one illustration out of three that they find most interesting. The RFVII-3 displays a wide range of occupations from those requiring little to no training to those for which considerable training is needed.

After completing the survey, users are shown vivid, on-screen results aligning their interests with the 16 Career Clusters defined by the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Labor and People/Data/Things classifications. The 16 Career Clusters, a framework used by schools and state agencies to organize jobs and career information to make it more accessible to consumers, counselors, and others exploring jobs and occupations, can then be compared and explored based on the examinee’s interests.
