Abstract

Person-environment (P-E) congruence and its relation to study
satisfaction and academic achievement were examined. Two
interest measures and one self-efficacy measure were used
to represent RIASEC personality types. The Croatian version
of Personal Globe Inventory was administrated on a sample
of 630 university students. The congruence indices have
shown that students' future occupations are almost equally
related to their interests as to their self-efficacy beliefs. P-E
congruence shares less than 1% of common variance with
study satisfaction and academic achievement, regardless of
the RIASEC personality measures used to estimate the
congruence.
