This file contains the Content Model Interest data associated with each O*NET-SOC occupation.

Interest ratings are presented as two scales: OI reports the RIASEC level of each interest and IH presents “high-point codes”, the numbers of the RIASEC scales for the first, second and/or third highest ratings. To better understand the scales, refer to the report: The Second Generation Occupational Interest Profiles for the O*NET System: Summary, on the O*NET Resource Center site (http://www.onetcenter.org/reports/SecondOIP_Summary.html).

The high-point values represent the following elements:

	0.00 = No high point available
	1.00 = Realistic
	2.00 = Investigative
	3.00 = Artistic
	4.00 = Social
	5.00 = Enterprising
	6.00 = Conventional

The file is displayed in 9 tab delimited fields with the columns named O*NET-SOC Code, Title, Element ID, Element Name, Scale ID, Scale Name, Data Value, Date, and Domain Source. The 9 fields are represented by one row. There are a total of 8,766 rows of data in this file.
