Abstract

<p>In career guidance, using the results of occupational aptitude tests is essential for searching occupational information. The Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare (MHLW) launched the Japanese version of Occupational-Network website (hereafter J-O-net) for jobseekers in 2020, where they published occupational database of around 500 occupations. The authors were requested to develop a module of ability test on the J-O-net for searching occupational information matching test takers’ aptitude. 3 subtests (Spatial, Verbal, and Numerical) of the General Aptitude Test Battery (GATB) were selected for developing the online module. The authors examined the test-retest reliability and confirmed some evidences of validity by examining the correlation of the subtests between the web version and the original one. A new matching mechanism for connecting the test scores and related occupational groups was investigated by attempting cluster analysis of numerical information database of the J-O-net, and resulted in the establishment of 8 occupational groups. Some challenges for the future development were examined.</p>
