Perceptions of Usefulness: Using the Holland Code Theory, Multiple Intelligences Theory, and Role Model Identification to Determine a Career Niche in the Fashion Industry for First-Quarter Fashion Students.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This action research study investigated the perceptions that student participants had on the development of a career exploration model and a career exploration project.The Holland code theory was the primary assessment used for this research study, in addition to the Multiple Intelligences theory and the identification of a role model for the purpose of identifying a career niche in the fashion industry.Twelve student participants took part in this research study as they researched and collaborated in groups and individually to understand the various careers in the fashion industry and how some of those careers can provide a congruent working environment based on their Holland codes and their personality, skills, and interests.The student participants were first quarter-fashion students at The Art Institute of Charlotte in North Carolina and they presented their findings in class, for both the career exploration project the career exploration model which included an optional individual consultation.The presentation for the career exploration model was titled a Dream Job and student participants also had an opportunity to select their favorite book or magazine and favorite television program as a means of connecting or confirming their career niche.A semantic differential survey was used to assist in determining participants' perception of usefulness for this career exploration model.Overall student participants found the career exploration model useful, all student participants (100%) were able to select careers which reflected their Holland code, all student participants (100%) were able to make a connection with their MI strength(s), all student participants (100%) selected dream jobs which reflected their personalities, skills, and interests, 75% of the student participants were able to make a connection with their role model, finally there was a measurable awareness of various positions in the fashion industry after the career exploration project and based on the post-career test results, student participants identified an average of 14.4 more fashion careers indicating a 332% increase.iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I give thanks to God.There were a few occasions when I did not think I would complete this research project, but through Him ALL things are possible.Next, my deepest and sincerest gratitude goes to all who supported me through this long journey.To my

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
