Correlations between psychiatric disabilities and vocational outcome.

Eighty-nine subjects were recruited from inpatient and community psychiatric treatment programs in the Los Angeles area to participate in the Brentwood Job Finding Club. They were trained in job-seeking skills and were given logistical support during their job search. Thirty-six percent either obtained a job or entered a job training program. Persons with good work histories, good job interviewing skills, and nonpsychotic diagnoses were more likely to find employment. Persons with psychotic diagnoses and poor work histories and those receiving Supplemental Security Income were the least successful.

Simulated and in situ vocational social skills training for youths with learning disabilities.

Social skills training for youth with learning disabilities in transition from school to work is of substantial importance. To examine the generalization of such training to real employment settings, this study used a multiple-baseline design to investigate the effects of 12 measured behaviors (3 behaviors per student) on four high school seniors. An initial simulated social skills package delivered at school led to generalization in 8 of 12 behaviors. Subsequently, in situ training at the work site produced generalization in 4 of 6 behaviors. This two-phase model appears to be a powerful way to promote generalization of behavioral skills.
