JOB DEVELOPMENT FOR THE MENTALLY RESTORED PSYCHIATRIC PATIENT1
Authors: Searls Donald J. , Sternberg Alan L. , Wilson Lowell T. , Miskimins R. W. 
Published: December 2011

ABSTRACTThe experiences of the placement department of the Mental Health and Manpower Project have demonstrated that an effective team can be created to develop job opportunities for the mentally restored psychiatric patient. Composed of a vocational counselor and a placement counselor, the team is effective in securing meaningful employment and developing re‐education programs in the community. While the vocational counselor provides the clinical information concerning the restored patient‐client, the placement counselor serves as a more personnel oriented individual in finding the appropriate kind of employment position. The team points to the potential that the mental health center possesses in involving the general community in its programs.
PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED BY EMPLOYMENT SERVICE COUNSELING SUPERVISORS
Authors: Gladstein Gerald A. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractData from 24 counseling supervisors in the New York State Employment Service were obtained as part of an on‐going training program. Small groups through spontaneous discussion presented problems that they wanted to solve. The data were classified and tabulated according to common content. The findings show that these supervisors were bothered primarily by organizational and interpersonal difficulties. Although also concerned with “job‐task” problems, these represented a smaller proportion of their time involvement. Implications for management and training were discussed.
ADMINISTRATION EFFECTS ON THE S‐329 OF THE GATB USING THREE EXPERIMENTAL TREATMENTS
Authors: Bookout Dwayne V. T. , Hosford Ray E. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractDoes the administrator of a test have an effect on the results of a group taking a test? If so, does a warm positive administrator have a different effect than a cold aloof examiner? Is there a difference in the effect of a male and female administrator? These are the questions that this study was designed to investigate. One hundred forty females 22 years or over taking the clerical battery of the GATB as part of a civil service examination were randomly assigned to one of three test administrators: (1) a warm, positive administrator, (2) a neutral administrator and (3) a negative, aloof and unhelpful administrator. One male and one female employed each of the experimental treatments resulting in six treatment groups.Findings: (1) Subjects taking the test administered by males did not achieve significantly different scores from those taking the test administered by females; (2) Warm positive administrator behavior produced significantly higher scores than negative administrator behavior; (3) Neutral administrator behavior produced significantly higher scores than negative administrator behavior; (4) Neutral and positive administrator behaviors were on the average equally effective in promoting high scores.

THE USE OF ADVOCACY AND CONFRONTATION COUNSELING THE DISADVANTAGED
Authors: Coffman David 
Published: December 2011

AbstractMiddle‐class counselors and disadvantaged clients appear to be alienated due to a basic difference in values. This alienation can be overcome by the counselor assuming the role of “social advocate.” Several examples are given to illustrate how social advocacy might be utilized. As the counseling relationship develops, and the client's trust and confidence strengthen, the counselor can begin to assert himself and confront the client concerning the unsolvable problems he presents as reasons for his unemployment and failure. Some differences exist as to counseling needs on the basis of sex and ethnic background. The confrontation program described would seem to be more effective with disadvantaged men than with disadvantaged women.
A COMPARISON OF THE MANIFEST PSYCHOLOGICAL NEEDS OF EMPLOYMENT SERVICE COUNSELING AND OFFICE MANAGERS
Authors: Hand Robert , Gade Eldon , Apostal Robert 
Published: December 2011

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to determine if there are significant differences in manifest psychological needs between office managers and counselors employed by the Minnesota Department of Employment Security.A sample of 21 office managers and 21 counselors were paired according to the agency office they worked in. The Edwards Personal Preference Schedule was used to measure manifest needs and results were analyzed by use of the paired t test statistic.The results indicated that seven of the fifteen variables showed a significant difference between the two groups. Counselors had a significantly higher mean average for autonomy, change, and heterosexuality while their office managers had significantly higher mean needs for deference, order, abasement, and endurance. The continued study of manifest need hierarchies was proposed as a basis for understanding, in part, the dynamics of the role interplay of various agency positions.
USE OF THE GATB “G” SCORE FOR PREDICTING ACHIEVEMENT ON THE GED
Authors: Klein Freda , Trione Verdun 
Published: December 2011

AbstractThe present study investigates the relationship of the GATB “G” with the GED. Practical and theoretical implications are involved.Making use of samples from the Las Vegas, Nevada population, the study compares scores of individuals administered the GED and GATB. A substantial correlation for prediction purposes was devised to illustrate the use of the GATB “G” to predict, by interval, an individual's position on the GED. The expectancy table helps guide the Vocational Counselor with a constructive tool whereby he advises the next steps of action for an educationally deficient or proficient client.The study recommends further replications to determine if such studies could guide agency policies whereby vocational counseling practice is improved and agency testing costs reduced.
THE TRAINING‐EMPLOYMENT VACUUM CYCLE
Authors: Hansen Carl E. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractThe training‐employment vacuum cycle program suggests: (1) Take the underemployed, non‐skilled worker, who has a feel for upward job mobility, and offer him the opportunities of our current job training programs. (2) Fill the job vacuum he creates by filling his job with a hard core unemployed individual. This will allow the unemployed individual immediate job gratification, fulfill his economic need and allow him to view work at an entry level position so he can judge from this vantage point the merits of further training. (3) After the unemployed individual has worked for a period of time the cycle would start over. He would then be offered training and another unemployed individual would be drawn into the vacated position.

WOMEN GOING BACK TO WORK: PRELIMINARY PROBLEMS1
Authors: Farley Jennie 
Published: December 2011

AbstractAnalysis of 422 applications submitted to an employment agency by married women suggests that some professional women who seek to reenter the labor force lack confidence, skill in presenting their credentials, and enough self‐assurance to present themselves in their own names. In this sample of women, the individual whose self‐image as an independent professional allowed her to defy Emily Post was more likely to get a job than was the individual who used her husband's name.
TRAINING AND COUNSELING OF THE OLDER WORKER1
Authors: Britton Jean O. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractMature workers are and will continue to be an important source of labor in the economy. By 1975 approximately one‐half of the labor force will be over 45 years of age. Problems of training, re‐training, and counseling these workers are examined in this paper in terms of some of their characteristics, such as slower work habits, decreased physical strength, adaptability, and lack of self‐confidence. Ways to alleviate or compensate for possible handicaps of older employees through training and counseling programs are suggested.

Authors: Altbaum Carole A. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractResearch has shown that behavior can be successfully modified if behavioral goals are specified and the behavior is broken down into small workable units. The counselor and counselee can work together to state the desired outcome of the counseling process. This report presents a case study in which the method of successive approximations was used with a young male client to develop public speaking ability.
THE CHALLENGE OF WELFARE DEPENDENCY TO REHABILITATION1
Authors: Kunce Joseph T. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractThe relationship of welfare status and socioeconomic status (SES) to employment outcomes following prevocational programs for mentally retarded young adults was investigated. About three‐fourths of the clients who were neither on welfare nor from the lower SES were successful, about half of the clients who were either on welfare or from the lower SES were rehabilitated, and only about one‐fourth of the clients who were both on welfare and from the lower SES were rehabilitated. The findings suggest the need for continual improvement in strategies for overcoming the vocational deficiencies of highly “dependent” clients.
EMPIRICAL COMPARISONS OF COUNSELOR ORIENTATIONS
Authors: Akridge R. L. , Bergeron W. L. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate counselor behaviors related to being “counseling oriented” in one's interaction with clients as opposed to being “placement oriented.” The levels of therapeutic conditions (accurate empathy, self congruence, unconditional positive regard, and intensity and intimacy of interpersonal contact) were all positively correlated with being counseling oriented (p<.01). The multiple correlation of the therapeutic conditions with being counseling oriented was .74 with accurate empathy accounting for the major portion of the variance. Further analysis of the frequency of specific counselor responses revealed that counselors who provide high therapeutic conditions, or those who are counseling oriented: (a) manifest a distinctly different pattern of responses; and, (b) are more active in the counseling relationship in terms of total responses.
