Predicting vocational rehabilitation acceptance based on race, education, work status, and source of support at application

The relationship of vocational rehabilitation (VR) acceptance to race, education, work status, and primary source of support at application was examined using logistic regression. Using a stepwise entry method, the categories of primary source of support at application and race were statistically significant. Moreover, within the variable of primary source of support at application, customer earnings were significant. As customer earnings increased, the likelihood of being accepted for VR decreased. As the type of primary support at application changed, the likelihood of being accepted for VR changed. Finally, European Americans were more likely than African Americans to be accepted for VR services.
