The occupational adjustment characteristics of a group of sexually promiscuous and venereally infected females

Abstract

A control group of 225 females was chosen from job applicants at the USES, while a second group of 225 was chosen from 500 promiscuous and infected females seen at the Midwestern Medical Center. Comparison of the groups was based upon the nature of the jobs or positions held and the length of service or job stability. The hospital patients had been infrequently employed in jobs requiring skill or training and never on the professional or managerial level, and the control group had remained in jobs twice as long. Job adjustment appeared to be a prime consideration in rehabilitation of the hospital group. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
