Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine differences in employment concerns among three groups of Americans with multiple sclerosis (MS; n = 1,446): Caucasians, African Americans, and Latinas/os. Participants in this study responded to a national survey of the employment and community living concerns of people with MS. Multivariate analysis of variance revealed no statistically significant between-group differences on employment concerns related to fair treatment, but between-group differences were observed in response to employment concern items related to legal rights and personal/environmental resources. Implications for future research and clinical practice in rehabilitation counseling are discussed.
