The present study aimed at developing a Chinese version of Vocational Interests Scale for Senior High School Students in Japan proposed by Wakabayashi and Munekata (2000). Sixty items prepared through the back-translation procedure were administered to 512 participants in five senior high schools in China. Procrustes rotation of principal component weights using Japanese data as the target replicated four components: (a) educational, medical and welfare (b) professional and clerical (c) technical and skilled (d) art, media and service industry, which justified the use of four subscales in original version for Chinese students. The reliability of each subscale evaluated on Cronbach's a was sufficiently high, and medium high correlations were found between all the subscales as were in Japanese data. Both female and male students showed generally high scores on "professional and clerical" subscale, which was interpreted that they put high values on occupations giving financial success and high prestige. Scores of female students were higher than male on "educational, medical, and welfare" and "art, media and service" subscales, while male students obtained higher scores than females on a "technical and skilled" subscale. These results were considered as evidences for validity of the scale.
