content: In 1946, the U.S. Civil Service Commission began using the Trades Interest Questionnaire to determine the vocational interest of prospective apprentices. Subjects were to fill out the test before coming to the official Civil Service examination. This is the 1952 version of the test, developed for wider use in response to the outbreak of the Korean War. Subjects were to indicate their preferences by circling an L (for like), a D (for dislike), or and I (for indifferent). They also were to indicate a W or W* if they were well-informed on a matter, a S or S* if they had some information or ideas about a condition, and an N or N* of they had no or little information about a task or condition.
