Socially Validating the Vocational Gains of a Visually Impaired Student in a Technological Work Setting.

Storey, Keith; Sacks, Sharon Zell

Education of the Visually Handicapped, v19 n2 p46-52 Sum 1987

A visually-impaired 17-year-old was videotaped in a work setting before and after vocational training. The videotape was shown to 35 graduate students and student teachers, whose ratings of the student's vocational competence validated behavior changes (e.g., job task accuracy) resulting from the training as being clinically important.
