Book excerpt: This report describes the validation of an Air Force vocational interest inventory in the enlisted force. The Vocational Interest-Career Examination (VOICE) was administered to 18,000 recruits during basic military training. After approximately one year on the job, they were surveyed to determine the extent to which they were satisfied with their respective occupational assignments. Individual aptitude variables from the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) served as control measures. Multiple regression analyses were used to characterize relationships between entry-level interests and eventual job satisfaction and to explore moderating effects due to sex and aptitude scores. Results of analyses indicated that the VOICE subscale provided reliable and significant prediction of job satisfaction for both males and females. Recommendations for operational implementation of the procedure were discussed. (Author).
