Q1Match the counselling approach with the theorist most commonly associated with it.
Williamson is associated with directive counselling, Carl Rogers with non-directive or client-centred counselling, and F. C. Thorne with eclectic counselling. Parsons, Super and Ginzberg are relevant to vocational guidance or career development, not to this threefold counselling classification.
Q2Consider the following statements about career-development theories: I. Parsons's trait-and-factor approach emphasises matching personal traits with occupational requirements. II. Super's theory gives central importance to self-concept and life stages. III. Ginzberg's stages of occupational choice are realistic, fantasy and tentative. Which statements are correct?
Statements I and II correctly identify Parsons's trait-and-factor approach and Super's self-concept or life-stage theory. Statement III is false because Ginzberg's occupational-choice stages are fantasy, tentative and realistic.
Q3Arrange Eli Ginzberg's stages of occupational choice in the correct developmental order.
Ginzberg described occupational choice through the stages of fantasy, tentative and realistic choice. Placing realistic before tentative or beginning with tentative misorders the developmental sequence.
Q4Assertion: In vocational guidance, interest inventories such as Strong and Kuder are testing techniques. Reason: They are used to assess vocational interests rather than to prepare a narrative record of a single observed behaviour.
The assertion is true because interest inventories such as the Strong Vocational Interest Blank and the Kuder Preference Record are testing techniques used in vocational guidance. The reason correctly separates them from anecdotal records, which are non-testing notes of specific observed behaviour incidents.
Q5Which statement about occupational information as a school guidance service is incorrect?
Occupational information supplies facts about occupations and requirements and is a standard school guidance service. It is not the same as counselling, which is a confidential and individualized helping relationship.
