  • Title: [Vocational rehabilitation in young mentally retarded adults].
    Author: Hennig H, Dober B.
    Journal: Psychiatr Neurol Med Psychol (Leipz); 1981 Mar; 33(3):182-8. PubMed ID: 7244043.
    Abstract:
    Most of the 151 young feeble-minded adults examined by us prove to be successful at their work-places. In most cases, these work-places require a relatively low degree of qualification. The mentally disabled male persons gain on an average a higher income; often they do heavy physical work and show a higher accident risk than the female persons questioned by us. In a considerable part of the feeble-minded test persons our questioning revealed great differences between the subjective appraisal of their social recognition and the objective appraisal of the social value made by the enterprise. These divergences decrease with increasing age of the test persons. The majority of the oligophrenic young adults are not doing any social work.
