Mank, David; Cioffi, Andrea; Yovanoff, Paul

Mental Retardation, v38 n6 p506-16 Dec 2000

This study investigated the possibility that high levels of direct support in supported employment programs are associated with less typicalness, integration, and wages. The study found that wage and integration outcomes can be increased, even if there is a high level of direct support, if there is coworker training. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
