THIS STUDY EXAMINES A PROCEDURE FOR USING THE WRITTEN CASE RECORD AS A CRITERION FOR EVALUATING REHABILITATION COUNSELOR PERFORMANCE IN STATE "DVR" (STATE-FEDERAL GENERAL VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM) AGENCIES. THE RESEARCHERS OUTLINE CERTAIN OBJECTIVES (TECHNICAL, AGENCY SERVICES, AND STAFF DEVELOPMENT) AS DESIRABLE IN THE EVALUATION PROCEDURES OF SUCH AGENCIES. BASED UPON EARLIER WORK DESCRIBING CRITICAL REQUIREMENTS IN REHABILITATION, THE STRUCTURED CASE REVIEW BLANK (SCRB) WAS DEVELOPED. SUPERVISORS WERE TRAINED TO USE THIS BLANK WHICH ASSESSED NINE AREAS OF COUNSELOR PERFORMANCE AND FOUR ADDITIONAL ASPECTS OF CLERICAL COMPETENCE. RATINGS OBTAINED FROM 26 SUPERVISORS OF 143 COUNSELORS WERE INTERCORRELATED WITH EACH OTHER AND WITH OTHER CRITERIA. RATINGS OF CASE RECORDS ARE ABOUT AS RELIABLE AS OTHER TYPES OF RATINGS USED TO EVALUATE COUNSELOR PERFORMANCE. BECAUSE AN ANALYSIS OF RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN THE SCRB HAS SHOWN RATHER HIGH INTERCORRELATIONS AMONG THE DIMENSIONS, GROUPS, AND TOTAL SCORES OF THE BLANK, SCRB RATINGS HAVE BEEN REJECTED IN THE DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS OF COUNSELOR PERFORMANCE.
