Effects of Handicap and Job Characteristics on Selection Evaluations.
Rose, Gerald L.; Brief, Arthur P.
Personnel Psychology, v32 n2 p385-92 Sum 1979
Business administration students evaluated a hypothetical job applicant who was either an amputee, an epileptic, or "normal." The hypothetical job openings varied as to levels of supervisory responsibility and public contact. With some noted exceptions, the handicapped applicants were evaluated no differently than the normal applicants. (Author/SJL)
