Rehabilitation Research, Policy, and Education, v27 n4 p261-270 2013
Although research supports a relationship between work and psychological factors, one area not studied is the relationship between preferred career value and psychological factors. This study investigated the relationship between preferred career values and psychological problems for individuals with disabilities. Career values have been shown to have an important impact on vocational outcomes. The results indicated that a preference for Independence, Recognition, Achievement, and Relationships were associated with clinical levels of psychological problems. Implications for rehabilitation counselors are discussed.
