In this prospective study, 46 adult seizure outpatients with suspected brain impairment were referred for vocational services at the University of Washington Regional Epilepsy Center and counseled for job placement. Among the demographic, intellectual, neuropsychological, and psychosocial variables considered, the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) Digit Symbol subtest and the name-writing procedure from the neuropsychological battery by Dodrill (1978) were the best discriminators of later employability. Using discriminant function analysis, these two tests correctly classified 75.0% of the group which ultimately became employed (n = 22) and 73.9% of the group which did not attain employment (n = 26). Implications of these findings are discussed in relation to rehabilitation planning.
在这项前瞻性研究中,46名疑似脑损伤的成年癫痫门诊患者被转介到华盛顿大学区域癫痫中心接受职业服务,并接受就业安置咨询。在考虑的人口统计学、智力、神经心理学和社会心理变量中,韦氏成人智力量表(WAIS)数字符号分测验以及多德里尔(1978年)神经心理成套测验中的姓名书写程序是后来就业能力的最佳判别指标。使用判别函数分析,这两项测试正确地将最终就业的群体(n = 22)中的75.0%和未就业的群体(n = 26)中的73.9%进行了分类。结合康复计划讨论了这些发现的意义。
