The main concepts of career guidance
For effective work on career guidance, it is often important to detect in time the psychological characteristics of a person on which to justify his professional choice. Usually, interest is considered as an emotional desire of an individual to carry out a specific type of professional activity. Out of interest arises a propensity in which this interest can be realized. Interest is aimed at obtaining new knowledge, and the inclination is towards specific actions.
Interest usually means attentive attitude, curiosity about the subject, concentration, caring attitude, purposeful behavior, knowledge about the subject, desire. Tendency often implies an endless focus on action. Usually the inclination is given to a person from birth.
On these concepts and reliesYovaishi career guidance.
Filling out the test-questionnaire
According to the method of Yovaishi, the sphere of professional preferences of students is determined. You must give preference to one of the two answers. You cannot choose both sub-items, so even if both answers are interesting, you still need to figure out which one is still preferable. The decision should be written next to the option that is preferred. Your choice is evaluated by points that range from 0 to 3. If you agree with the first provision, you must write the number 3 next to it, and 0 must be assigned to the second option. If you agree with the second option, everything is done the other way around. If you prefer a position with a very small advantage, then you need to indicate the number 2 near it, and 1 near the other subparagraph. Or vice versa, if the second option is slightly preferred.
Question content
Questions according to the Yovaishi method are asked on different topics. It is asked about the preferences that are given to this or that quality in a person, about what is interesting at the exhibition; about the areas in which you want to succeed; about preference in school circles; about what attracts reading books; what lectures do you want to listen to, etc. Thirty questions in total. You must answer honestly and thoughtfully. Personality tests are different in that they have no right or wrong answers, and everything is measured by truthfulness.
Calculating the result
When the answer sheetis filled, it is necessary to calculate the total amount of points in each of them. Under each of these columns, the overall result is written.
The first column refers to the field of art. If below it is the maximum number of points, then this area is most interesting for the respondent.
The second column indicates interest in technology. The third indicates the area of mental work. Physical work is reflected in the fifth column. And in the sixth - the interests of a material nature.
It is necessary to highlight those columns that scored the highest number of points. They indicate the areas that the test taker will prefer. Keys are given for this test, which indicate which sub-items for each item belong to a particular column. This is the Yovaishi method.
Interpretation
Professional inclinations according to the method of Yovaishi L. are divided into six areas:

Those who are suitable for this type of profession are sociable, easily find a common language with everyone, understand the psychology and qualities of individuals.
2) Mental labor. It is associated with research in the field of various sciences. Persons working in this field need a high development of intelligence, the ability to analyze, the ability to think outside the box. Usually these individuals are not engaged in the implementation of the issue in practice, but in thinking about the existing problem, that is, they are, as a rule, theorists.
3)technical interests. This work is related to such areas as statistics, programming, electrical engineering, etc. This is done by those people who like to work with machines, various materials, can control vehicles or other technical devices.
4) Aesthetics and art. Such personalities are engaged in design, cosmetology, make-up artists, directors, model clothes. The creative warehouse of the individual allows him to be original. Often such a person looks detached from the outside world, because he is not interested in everyday life.
5) Physical and mobile labor. These are professions that are constantly moving, requiring mobility and the ability to respond quickly. A person must be resilient. Athletes must be physically fit, and the same is required for cashiers and bartenders, for warehouse workers, of course, for police officers.
6) Material interests. These jobs are related to management, commerce, advertising, etc. Here you need to be able to count, analyze, sit still for a long time, and do everything very carefully. You need the ability to approach problems concretely and definitely.
