description |
This study was designed to develop a new inventory to measure vocational intelligenceof Malaysian adolescents. The Design and Development Research (DDR) model wasadopted as a main research design in this study and three phases were involved. Phaseone was the need analysis phase - involving the modified Delphi study and focus groupdiscussion where the importance of identifying students vocational intelligence andtheir attributes were identified. Six attributes of vocational intelligence were identified- background, interest, personality, ability, skill, and creativity. Phase two was thedesign and development phase where an inventory to determine students vocationalintelligence, named MyVQ, was developed using the attributes found in phase one. Theverification and evaluation of MyVQ were carried out in phase three - theimplementation and evaluation phase. The Cronbachs alpha values of each section ofthe instrument demonstrated that all items in each section have acceptable internalconsistency. MyVQ was tested to 400 Year-Six students in five zones of peninsularMalaysia, selected using stratified random sampling. Three different types of primaryschools were selected from each zone. MyVQ scores were analysed descriptivelyaccording to attributes and total scores as well as to obtain norms for Malaysianadolescents. Using MyVQ, the samples can be categorized into four different levels ofvocational intelligence: gifted (2.3%), high (18.5%), moderate (69.5%) and low (9.8%).Students who were in the gifted and high levels (20.8%) are proposed to chooseTechnical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) educational pathways.Hence, MyVQ is a valid and reliable new instrument to measure vocational intelligencethat could be used to map vocational intelligence among adolescents. In implication,MyVQ can be used as a diagnostic and screening tool to place students in appropriateeducational and training institutions in order to produce future quality human resourcesto achieve sustainable economic development. |
