Considering evidences of theoretical and empirical relationships between vocational interests and personality traits, this study aimed to investigate correlations between "Berufsbilder Test" (BBT) and "BateriaFatorial de Personalidade" (BFP). 906 college students, both sexes, aged 23 years old on average (SD = 5.18) participated in the study. Significant correlations were found: Z interests correlated with Interests for new ideas (facet of Openness) and Openness; V interests correlated with Competence (facet of Conscientiousness); G interestscorrelated with Interests for new ideas (facet of Openness); O interestscorrelated with Communication, Dynamism (facets of Extraversion) and Extraversion factor. The results are in agreement with the theoretical assumptions of BBT-Br, as well as with scientific literature addressing interests and personality.

Palabras clave : vocational interests; personality traits; vocational guidance; college students.
