The American Occupational Therapy Association's certification instruments, the Certification Examination for Occupational Therapists Registered and the Field Work Performance Report, were examined in terms of their ability to predict future job performance and satisfaction of occupational therapists. A job satisfaction questionnaire was administered to 208 occupational therapists, and their supervisors rated them on a job performance instrument. The resulting correlations between these work adjustment variables and the previously administered certification instruments failed to reveal any predictive ability. Some plausible reasons for these negative results and possible directions for further research into this professional screening process were explored.
对美国职业治疗协会的认证工具——注册职业治疗师认证考试和实地工作表现报告，就其预测职业治疗师未来工作表现和满意度的能力进行了研究。对208名职业治疗师进行了工作满意度问卷调查，并且他们的主管根据一份工作表现工具对他们进行了评级。这些工作适应变量与之前实施的认证工具之间的相关性结果未能显示出任何预测能力。探讨了这些负面结果的一些合理原因以及对这一专业筛选过程进行进一步研究的可能方向。
