摘要：

Because it focuses on the interactions between students and their environments, Holland's theory of vocational choice provides a powerful framework for studying college experiences. The present study assessed the relative merits of psychological and sociological interpretations of Holland's theory by examining the relationships among students' expectations about college, their personality types, and their intended academic majors. Results indicated that both the psychological and sociological aspects of Holland's theory aid in understanding students' college expectations.
