Summary: "Vocational Psychology: Its Problems and Methods" by H. L. Hollingworth is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This volume delves into the applications of psychology in vocational guidance and selection, focusing on the assessment of individual differences that affect career choices. It seeks to provide a systematic evaluation of vocational psychology, offering insights for students, parents, and professionals involved in helping individuals navigate their career paths.
