We examined the effectiveness of an integrated supported employment (ISE) program, which augments Individual Placement & Support (IPS) with social skills training (SST) in helping individuals with SMI achieve and maintain employment. A total of 163 participants were randomly assigned to three vocational rehabilitation programs: ISE, IPS, and traditional vocational rehabilitation (TVR). After fifteen months of services, ISE participants had significantly higher employment rates (78.8%) and longer job tenures (23.84 weeks) when compared with IPS and TVR participants. IPS participants demonstrated better vocational outcomes than TVR participants. The findings suggested that ISE enhances the outcomes of supported employment, endorsing the value of SST in vocational rehabilitation.
我们考察了一项综合支持性就业(ISE)项目的有效性,该项目通过社交技能培训(SST)强化个人安置与支持(IPS),以帮助患有严重精神疾病(SMI)的个体实现并维持就业。共有163名参与者被随机分配到三个职业康复项目中:ISE、IPS和传统职业康复(TVR)。在接受十五个月的服务后,与IPS和TVR参与者相比,ISE参与者的就业率显著更高(78.8%),工作任期更长(23.84周)。IPS参与者的职业成果比TVR参与者更好。研究结果表明,ISE改善了支持性就业的成果,支持了SST在职业康复中的价值。
