Abstract	A survey was conducted in 1973-74 to assess career and occupational development among young Americans. The more than 100,000 individuals who participated nationally were divided into the four following age categories: nine-year-olds, thirteen-year-olds, seventeen-year-olds, and young adults ages twenty-six to thirty-five. Each group completed a group of exercises designed to assess knowledge or skills generally useful in the world of work, knowledge about jobs, self-appraisal skills, work-related experiences, and work-related values. The variables assessed were (1) region of the country and size and type of community; (2) educational level of parents and self, which included parental education, the relationship between grade and age, and the participant's own education and continuing education; and (3) sex, race, and socioeconomics, which included home environment and family income. (The results are presented in bar graphs, and the appendixes provide probability levels of differences between reporting groups within variables and estimates of percentages of blacks, whites, other races, and nations for the young adult participants.)
