This study classified the differences between scores based on female norms (same-sex scores) and scores based on male norms (other-sex scores) on 12 Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory Occupational Scales in a sample of 87 college women. The same- and other-sex score differences were classified as interpretable (of practical use in guidance) if one score indicated interests similar to those of persons working in the occupation and the other score indicated interests dissimilar to those persons' interests. The score differences were classified as noninterpretable if both scores indicated similar interests or both scores indicated dissimilar interests. There were 224 interpretable score differences on the 12 scales and 820 noninterpretable score differences. These findings were related to the practice of interpreting other-sex scores on Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory Occupational Scales
