| Abstract | The scope of the paper is to review the two major interest inventories, exploring the nuances and complexities of the technical aspects in their development, their item sampling, norming, scoring, reporting of results, and changing patterns of interests in relation to the differential treatment of sexes; and to suggest guidelines to eliminate or alleviate any potential sex biasing factors. Using the operational definition of sex bias as any factor that may influence a person to limit career opportunities solely on the basis of gender, these areas are explored and the following recommendations, among others, made: Interest inventories should not have separate forms of the instrument for males and females, and the same set of items should be used for both, with care that an item is not inherently more applicable to one gender than the other; in the development of externally based scales, every effort should be made to collect adequate samples of males and females for each occupation represented on the inventory's reporting of results; and caution should be exercised against differentially including items that represent non-valid sex differences.
