Predictors of Employment Outcomes for State-Federal Vocational Rehabilitation Consumers with HIV/AIDS
Jung, Youngoh; Schaller, James; Bellini, James
Rehabilitation Counseling Bulletin, v53 n3 p175-185 2010
In this study, the authors investigated the effects of demographic, medical, and vocational rehabilitation service variables on employment outcomes of persons living with HIV/AIDS. Binary logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine predictors of employment outcomes using two groups drawn from Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA-911) data. Only service variables were found to be significantly related to employment outcomes in both groups. Job placement assistance and on-the-job supports were found to be significant predictors of a successful employment outcome at closure. Whereas higher case service expenditures increased the likelihood of achieving employment at closure, longer length of time in rehabilitation decreased the likelihood of employment at closure.
