Abstract | In Milwaukee, 122 handicapped clients from social service agencies participated in a research and demonstration project in avocational counseling over an 8-month period, with followup interviews conducted 1-6 months later with 72 of the Ss. Six avocational interest inventories were reviewed and compared, and five new avocational choice instruments were developed: the Avocational Title Card Sort, the Avocational Picture Card Sort, the Slide Projected Picture Sort, the Magazine Picture Card Sort, and the Avocational Plaque Sort. Twelve audio cassette tapes of interviews with enthusiastic activity participants were recorded. The Milwaukee Avocational Satisfaction Questionnaire was developed by adapting items from the Minnesota (job) Satisfaction Questionnaire. Results indicated that the most important dimensions in attaining satisfaction were degree of competence in the activity and interpersonal relationships. Only 8% of the Ss were not satisfied with their activities, according to followup studies. (Recruitment form letters are appended. Video tapes of avocational counseling were prepared which are available for a rental fee.) (Author/IM) |
