The Career Beliefs Inventory (CBI) is designed to help a counselor identify assumptions blocking a client's career progress. It measures domains untapped by other career assessment instruments and legitimizes discussions of important assumptions that are often overlooked and seldom examined. The 25 scales describe categories of beliefs found by prior research to have interfered with career decision making. Lower scores on a scale alert the counselor to explore specific beliefs in that category with the client and to examine their consequences.
