Abstract

Investigated predictors of employment stability for 341 18-26 yr old male parolees and probationers. Moderate, significant correlations were found between stability (inferred from job referral records) and occupational consistency, job skill, socialization (California Psychological Inventory), prior job tenure, incarcerations, auto theft, and a base expectancy measure, but not parole agent ratings.
