| Abstract: | Examined the tenability of supplementing subjective clinical information concerning a patient's employability with more objective data for formulating specific placement procedures. Analysis revealed that 15 behavioral items differentiated placed successes, placed failures, and nonplaced patients on initial and replication studies of 87 and 129 psychiatric patients. Results indicate that the final items comprise an effective instrument for distinguishing the mentally restored individual who will experience failure in employment.
