The authors examined the cumulative effects of work on symptoms, quality of life, and self-esteem for
149 unemployed clients with severe mental illness receiving vocational rehabilitation. Nonvocational
measures were assessed at 6-month intervals throughout the 18-month study period, and vocational
activity was tracked continuously. On the basis of their predominant work activity over the study period,
participants were classified into 4 groups: competitive work, sheltered work, minimal work, and no work.
The groups did not differ at baseline on any of the nonvocational measures. Using mixed effects
regression analysis to examine rates of change over time, the authors found that the competitive work
group showed higher rates of improvement in symptoms; in satisfaction with vocational services, leisure,
and finances; and in self-esteem than did participants in a combined minimal work-no work group. The
sheltered work group showed no such advantage.

of schizophrenia, we know change often occurs in small increments (Strauss & Carpenter, 1977). Although obtaining a job may
provide an immediate boost in morale, a larger impact may be
realized after a sustained period of employment. Thus, we hypothesize that the effects of employment are cumulative, such that the
effects will be stronger the longer a person is working.
Two randomized controlled trials of supported employment
have examined nonvocational outcomes at multiple follow-up
points for working and nonworking clients. One found that clients
who were working had fewer psychiatric symptoms than those
who were not working at each follow-up assessment (McFarlane et
al., 2000). The supported employment model implemented in this
study, however, required that clients be clinically stable before
they entered competitive employment, so the findings may reflect
a selective delay of entry into competitive employment for more
symptomatic clients. No such restrictive criteria were used in a
New Hampshire study comparing two supported employment approaches (Drake, McHugo, Becker, Anthony, & Clark, 1996). In a
secondary analysis of this study, Mueser et al. (1997) examined the
relationship of work to nonvocational outcomes over an 18-month
period for 143 clients with SMI. At follow-up, clients who were
working had lower rates of psychiatric symptoms, higher selfesteem, and greater satisfaction with finances and vocational services than unemployed clients did, even after controlling for baseline levels of functioning.
The current article is a partial replication of the analysis conducted by Mueser et al. (1997). It is a secondary data analysis of
a second randomized study of the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model of supported employment, conducted in Washington, DC (Drake et al., 1999). Like the earlier New Hampshire
study, the DC study showed substantially better competitive employment outcomes for clients assigned to IPS, compared with a
control group receiving traditional vocational rehabilitation services. Although the goal of both conditions was to help participants obtain competitive employment in community settings, the
control condition offered participants an array of sheltered workshop and work adjustment experiences as a first step toward
competitive employment. Thus, the current study afforded an
opportunity to examine the differential effects of sheltered and
competitive work experiences on nonvocational outcomes.
We hypothesized that among baseline characteristics, both work
history and severity of symptoms would predict employment outcomes over the follow-up period. However, on the basis of the
weak findings for these factors in the literature, we hypothesized
that the size of these effects would be small. We did not expect to
find differences on other client background variables.
Our main hypothesis concerned the effects of work on nonvocational outcomes. We hypothesized that the cumulative effects of
competitive employment would have a positive effect on nonvocational outcomes. Specifically, positive effects should be found
only for those who achieve a sustained period of working competitively, rather than for those who work minimally or not at all.
We predicted no differences between those working minimally and
those working not at all. We had two secondary hypotheses regarding sheltered employment: (a) that sustained participation in
sheltered work would result in better nonvocational outcomes than
would minimal work or not working at all and (b) that competitive
work would result in better nonvocational outcomes than would
sheltered work. In other words, we presumed that sheltered work
Study Participants
Study participants were recruited at Community Connections, an intensive case management agency serving clients with SMI in southeast Washington, DC. Participants met the following inclusion criteria: SMI (i.e., a
major mental illness, such as schizophrenia or bipolar or depressive disorder, and 2 years of major role dysfunction), unemployed at time of study
admission, willingness to give informed consent, lack of medical or cognitive problems that would interfere with completing research interviews,
and attendance at four informational groups. All clients at the agency were
encouraged to attend informational groups explaining the study procedures
and the two vocational approaches (Bebout, Becker, & Drake, 1998). Of
the 309 clients receiving case management at the study site during the
study enrollment period, 152 (49%) participated in the study. Two participants with incomplete vocational data and 1 participant who could not be
classified on his pattern of employment (explained below) were excluded
from the current analyses. Characteristics of the final sample of 149
participants are shown in Table 1.

Analysis
The first step was to construct the typology, as just described. We then
examined differences in the four groups on background characteristics.
Analysis of variance and chi-square statistics were used to examine group
differences at baseline. In addition, baseline nonvocational measures and
work history measures were examined as predictors of vocational and
nonvocational outcomes at each follow-up period.
We examined each of our outcome measures separately, using univariate
two-tailed tests and p < .05 as alpha for each comparison. In the symptom
area, we stipulated a priori that we would examine the total symptom score,
and if it was significant, we would then examine subscales.
Our main analysis focused on the prediction of nonvocational outcomes
from employment status on the basis of the typology. Depending on the
distribution of our dependent measures, we used either a parametric statistical model (described below) for measures that roughly approximated a

Results
Typology
Of the 150 participants from the parent study (Drake et al,
1999), we used 149 (99%) in the current analysis. Of these, we
easily classified 140 using the work typology, because they either
had been employed in only one work category (sheltered or competitive), had earned less than the median income levels on both
wage categories, or had no paid employment during the follow-up
period. However, 10 individuals had worked both a competitive
and a sheltered job over the 18-month period and earned above the
median for at least one type of job. Of these, 8 were placed in the
competitive work category and 1 in the sheltered category because
earnings in their predominant job type consisted of 70% or greater

of their total earnings for the study period. One participant could
not be classified because of a 60-40% split in total earnings
between competitive and sheltered employment and was therefore
dropped from the analysis, as noted above.
This typology resulted in four subgroups: competitive work
(n = 31), with mean earnings of $5,799 (SD = $3,751); sheltered
work (n = 24), with mean earnings of $3,350 (SD = $2,764);
minimal work (n = 50), with mean earnings of $554 (SD = $417);
and no work (i.e., no paid work over follow-up; n = 44). Group
comparisons are shown in Table 2. Other indicators of duration of
employment were consistent with the typology. For example, the
competitive work group averaged 32 weeks of competitive employment over the 18-month follow-up period, compared with an
average of less than 5 weeks for any of the other groups. Conversely, mean earnings from sheltered employment were 10 times
greater for the sheltered work group than was the mean for any
other group. Therefore, the typology successfully classified participants into distinct groups.
The groups were similar on most background characteristics, as
shown in Table 1. However, GAS scores were significantly higher
for the competitive work group (M = 47.2) than for the minimal
(M = 41.0) or sheltered (M = 39.6) groups, F(3, 148) = 3.87, p =
.011. Also, in the 5 years prior to study intake, the groups differed
in months competitively employed, F(3, 148) = 5.93, p = .001.
Converting these data to an annualized rate, the competitive work
group averaged 11.8 weeks per year in competitive employment
over the preceding 5 years, compared with 7.6, 4.8, and 4.1 weeks
per year, respectively, for the sheltered, minimal, and no work
groups. Thus, most participants in all four groups were unemployed for a large proportion of time during the 5-year period prior
to the study.
We also examined whether the two conceptually distinct subgroups within the minimal work groupthose who worked minimally in competitive work and those who worked minimally in
sheltered workdiffered on background measures or on any nonvocational outcomes during follow-up. Our analyses (not shown)
indicated that they did not.
Inspection of the response distributions for the outcome measures at baseline suggested that the quality of life measures, the
symptom measures, and the self-esteem measure were reasonably
well behaved and that these were suited for parametric analyses.
However, five measures were highly skewed: those measuring
alcohol use, drug use, homelessness, psychiatric hospitalizations,
and time in jail. We therefore dichotomized each as either indicating the presence or the absence of the problem. We report the
findings for these dichotomized measures first.
Chi-Square Analyses
The baseline rates for the dichotomized variables were low, as
shown in Table 1. As we previously noted, the groups did not
differ at baseline on these variables. We then examined betweengroups differences in these rates at each of the three follow-up
periods, using 2 X 2 chi-square analyses, with group comparisons
constructed according to the study hypotheses. None of the 12
chi-squares was statistically significant. Overall, there was a slight
tendency for the competitive work group to function better on
these variables than the no work and minimal work groups did,
both at baseline and thereafter. For example, across the 18-month

(ES = 2.24), whereas the ESs for the symptom subscales were
generally smaller: Affect (ES = 0.46), Thought Disorder
(ES = 0.27), Activation (ES = 0.00), and Disorganization
(ES = 0.59), with one ES in the direction of worsening symptoms,
Anergia (ES = 0.44). Averaging across the eight outcome measures listed in Table 3 (using only the BPRS total for the symptom
domain), the within-group ESs for the no work, minimal work,
sheltered work, and competitive work groups were 0.02, 0.01,
0.19, and 0.74, respectively.
Discussion
Clients with SMI who worked in competitive employment for
an extended period of time showed a greater rate of improvement
in several nonvocational outcomes, which partially replicated the
findings in Mueser et al. (1997), who found improvement in some
of the same nonvocational domains. Perhaps the most significant
area of convergence in the two studies was in reduction in psychiatric symptoms. Because of the lack of baseline differences and

the statistical model used, we believe the findings are not simply
a result of better functioning clients being more successful in
achieving and maintaining competitive work. Instead, we conclude
that this study offers preliminary support for the view that competitive employment nurtures positive personal changes outside
the work domain. However, this conclusion must be qualified. For
some of the findings, the improvement in the competitive work
group was significant, whereas in other cases, the statistical difference reflected deterioration in the minimal-nonworking group.
Studies have frequently not distinguished between these two scenarios. Accordingly, we recommend that future studies routinely
indicate whether differences are a result of the improvement with
working or of deterioration as a result of not working.
The current study also offers a refinement over most previous
research by suggesting that the impact of employment on nonvocational outcomes is evident only for an extended period of employment, not merely for exposure to work. Research should
examine whether longer periods of employment result in further
incremental gains in other life domains, as one would expect
intuitively.
As has been widely found in studies of people with SMI (Bond
et al., 1997), we found most competitively employed clients in the
current study worked part time, and some held a series of shortterm jobs. This pattern of partial employment is consistent with the
stress tolerance level for this population, as well as with strategies
clients use to avoid the disincentives of the disability benefits
system, which reduce benefits when earnings exceed specified
limits (Walls, Dowler, & Fullmer, 1990; Warner & Polak, 1995).
Regarding the widely held assumption among clinicians that
employment may cause stress and therefore lead to poorer nonvocational outcomes, there was no evidence that the competitive
work group, on average, deteriorated over time in any outcome
domain. The single exception was a slight increase in BPRS
Anergia. The major thrust of the findings, including those for
psychiatric hospitalization, substance use, and total symptoms, is
that working competitively generally does not adversely affect
people with severe mental illness.
Consistent with most prior research (Anthony & Jansen, 1984;
Bond, 1992; Mueser et al., 1997; Rogers et al., 1997), client
background characteristics mostly did not predict employment
outcomes in this study. The fact that symptoms at baseline did not
predict later employment outcomes is at variance with some of the
literature, although studies are not consistent on this point. We
speculate that symptoms are less of a barrier in programs that
assertively help clients find jobs, as was true for clients receiving
IPS services in this study. We also note that the study participants
were generally less symptomatic than clients in many of the
published studies examining this relationship. Given the mounting
evidence that negative symptoms are especially predictive of
poorer vocational functioning in people with schizophrenia (Hoffmann & Kupper, 1997; Lysaker & Bell, 1995), it is of interest that
the BPRS factor of Anergia (blunted affect, emotional withdrawal,
and motor retardation) did not predict employment outcome.
One set of comparisons not previously examined in prior research concerned the differential impact of competitive and sheltered work. In the parent study, Drake et al. (1999) found that the
experimental conditions participants had similar earnings from
employment, with the difference being that virtually all of the
employment outcomes for the IPS condition were in competitive
