  • Title: Identifying work preferences among individuals with severe multiple disabilities prior to beginning supported work.
    Author: Reid DH, Parsons MB, Green CW.
    Journal: J Appl Behav Anal; 1998; 31(2):281-5. PubMed ID: 9652103.
    Abstract:
    We evaluated a prework assessment for predicting work-task preferences among workers with severe multiple disabilities prior to beginning supported work. The assessment involved comparing worker selections from pairs of work tasks drawn from their future job duties. Results of workers' choices once they began their jobs in a publishing company indicated that the assessment predicted tasks that the workers preferred to work on during their job routines. Results are discussed regarding other possible means of determining preferred types of supported work.
