摘要:

This study was performed to resolve the question of comparability of manual dexterity scores obtained on wooden and plastic versions of the USES pegboard. Three types of boards (new wooden, worn wooden, and plastic) were used in testing 456 individuals, 152 with each type. The results showed that there were no significant differences in mean scores on either Part 9 or Part 10 of the USES pegboard. Therefore, we concluded that currently authorized equipment, either plastic or wooden, may be used with the confidence that scores are not affected by the type of equipment used. Users of plastic equipment should make certain that only the newer hard plastic pegs are used, however.

摘要:

A survey using two sample groups examined the differences between older and younger employees in the levels of satisfaction derived from an “enriched” job. The findings of the second sample tend to refute popular stereotypes that suggest that older employees place more importance on extrinsic rewards (that is, high pay and job security) than do younger employ

摘要:

Although the feminist movement has expanded job opportunities for women, there are many psychological and cultural barriers that prevent many women job seekers from taking advantage of these opportunities. A review of the recent literature on the counseling needs of women points out the role conflicts, cultural hostility, and institutional bias that keep some women out of the labor market and cause job‐seeking and job adjustment problems for others. Awareness of these factors on the part of employment counselors will aid the smooth transition from home to career for women applicant

摘要:

Women's place as a permanent part of the work force has been established, but the question now is whether women will continue to be the majority of low‐skilled, low‐paid workers or will share equally in opportunities in all fields of employment. The economic needs of most women workers are approximately the same as those of male workers. With 6.6 million women heads of families in 1973, nearly one out of three such families was poor according to Department of Labor criteria. Professional job counselors have a responsibility to support women who make nontraditional career choices. Counselors and others must also be aware of the rights and resources available to each woman in pursuing her career go

摘要:

This article describes the use of drama as a technique for facilitating group discussion and understanding. The play “It's a Man's World” reverses the typical male and female roles in the business world to dramatize the sometimes discriminatory employment practices that women face in the business world today. The play follows applicant George Ford through a series of frustrating interviews until he finally becomes aware of the “correct” answers. The correct response comes too late, however, and ba

摘要:

Progress is being made in improving employers' attitudes toward women accountants. A few years ago, most organizations did not actively recruit women accountants. Recently, however, accounting firms have become aware of the increasing number of women accounting graduates and are sending women recruiters to college campuses to recruit prospective women applicants.To analyze the progress in employment opportunities available to women during the past five years, a follow‐up of a survey was conducted. Chi‐square contingency tests were used to analyze some of the results. The survey showed that most accounting firms are either actively trying to solve the problem of discrimination or are at least interested in seeking solutions. Some companies indicated that they would hire more women college graduates if they were qualified accountants.Women need better career planning and counseling. They should be encouraged to study job market forecasts in view of their personal abilities and goals. Many women either have not been aware of job opportunities in accounting or have been interested in the field but discouraged by the attitudes of parents, professors, or guidance counselors, or overt discrimination by employers. In the past, such attitudes may have caused many capable women to select the more traditional “feminine” professions
