Abstract

An increasing number of occupational and educational planning aids (such as the Self-Directed Search) are relying on self-estimates of aptitudes rather than on objective measures of abilities. A preliminary examination of the accuracy of self-estimated aptitudes in a relatively small sample of high school seniors suggests that unsubstantiated self-estimates may lead to decisions based on unrealistic self-knowledge. Differential skills in self-estimating were also explored according to sex and scholastic ability.
