One aspect of my research is highly quantitative, based on the construction and analysis of psychometric instruments, and another relies on the qualitative data obtained from the interview process. I look upon both psychometric and interview-derived data in terms of a broader meaning-making perspective. Both the interpretation of sophisticated psychological testing and the self-assessment interview process are concerned with the elicitation of images that become the basis for the building of career and life narratives and the enactment of those narratives.
