  • Title: Transition of persons with developmental disability from extended sheltered employment to competitive employment.
    Author: Goldberg RT, McLean MM, LaVigne R, Fratolillo J, Sullivan FT.
    Journal: Ment Retard; 1990 Oct; 28(5):299-304. PubMed ID: 2255259.
    Abstract:
    The proposition was tested that persons with developmental disabilities randomly assigned to a supported work program would obtain more employment in the competitive labor market than would a randomly assigned group of control subjects receiving conventional workshop services. A measure of association (chi-square) conducted between the two groups and three categories of work showed that the experimental group obtained significantly more employment.
