The Psycho-Social Impact of a CBRN Threat or Attack on an Australian Community: Pilot Survey Results

The findings of the research may provide useful information for emergency agencies on how they may prepare and respond to public responses to emergencies, as understanding how the public will react to such events is an important part of realistic planning. On a broader scale, the findings from this research may help emergency agencies to communicate, educate or heighten awareness of radiological and nuclear issues in the wider community

Career compromise: A test of Gottfredson's (1981) theory using a policy-capturing procedure

Thirty-seven participants rated the attractiveness of 27 hypothetical jobs created through the factorial combination of each of the 3 levels of sextype, prestige, and interests. The unique percentage of variance accounted for by each factor for each respondent was calculated and these data were subjected to a 3 x 2 repeated measures analysis of variance. No support was found for Gottfredson's compromise model. Sex-type was not the most resistant to compromise nor were interests most easily compromised. Results are discussed in light of the difficulties encountered in testing Gottfredson's compromise model. The comparative advantages of process-oriented but content-free theories such as those outlined by Gati (1986) are highlighted. 8 IWO Academic press, IIIC. From a psychological perspective, individuals' vocational behavior has been conceptualized via theories which span a continuum: from specific career choice (e.g., Holland, 1985) at one end to lifespan career development (e.g., Super, 1980) at the other. Gottfredson's (1981) circumscription and compromise formulation is one of the few in vocational psychology that attempts to integrate these two poles of the theoretical spectrum. Furthermore, despite the considerable empirical support for the influence of sociological factors such as prestige and sex-type on
