One hundred and sixty-four were employed by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and 101 were employed by the community of Urbana-Champaign. Three spouses held two positions, one in the University and the other in the community. Subjects were identified through the University and through community organizations. Subjects were surveyed using mailed questionnaires. A return rate of 60.03% was obtained from the total possible sample. Data analyses included split-plot factorial analyses, discriminant analyses, hierarchical multiple regression analyses, canonical analyses, Pearson correlations and descriptive statistics.Results indicated that there were no significant differences among Fully-Employed, Mixed Employed and Unclassified couples on Career Satisfaction/Dissatisfaction. There was only one Underemployed couple, therefore it was not included in the analysis for couples. There were no significant differences among Fully-Employed, Underemployed and Unclassified spouses on Career Satisfaction/Dissatisfaction.All (i.e., with and without children) Fully-Employed Spouses, Underemployed, Fully-Employed with children and Underemployed spouses with children were especially characterized by Chronological Age and by Spouse (i.e., sex). All Unclassified spouses and Unclassified spouses with children were more similar in their characteristics to both groups of the Fully-Employed and the Underemployed spouses.Results revealed that across all Employment Statuses and Unclassified spouses, the psychological factors were more significant contributors to Career Satisfaction/Dissatisfaction than the socioeconomic and background factors.Discussion emphasized that a theory and further studies are needed, and that these should consider an expanded model and some different or revised measures.U of I OnlyRestricted to the U of I community idenfinitely during batch ingest of legacy ETD

Subjects were surveyed using mailed questionnaires. A return rate of 60.03% was obtained from the total number of subjects who were mailed questionnaires. There were no significant differences among Fully Employed and Underemployed (i.e., positions requiring less education than that obtained) spouses or couples on job satisfaction; across all employment statuses, only the psychological factors (i.e., self-esteem, career salience, and home salience) were significant (p < .05) contributors to job satisfaction. The discussion emphasizes that an expanded theory and further studies are needed, and that these should consider some measurement changes to increase the sensitivity of the employment status variable.

Parental bereavement is a normal reactive process to an abnormal event. The duration of grief is lifelong with varying intensity. It requires readjustment to a new reality. This process of readjustment is considered from both the bereaved parent's and from the outside observer's perspectives. Readjustment entails a constant interpretation of the grief experienced. It involves changes in perception of self and changes in the relationships with the living family. Readjustment also occurs through the grief that is expressed in emotions, behaviors, coping strategies, and influences on health. ,The process moves from the attachment to the deceased child to an emergence of a new self/identity and may continue to progress to the discovery of new meaning in life. Counselors can help parents with the process of reconnecting them to life and assist them in functioning in a productive and nondestructive manner.

In the present study cultural adjustment is conceptualized similarly to Mendoza and Martinez's Model of Acculturation (1981). It is suggested that cultural adjustment is a process of multiple interacting factors distinguished by different behavioral, cognitive, affective and demographic attributes and by different levels, varying from cultural assimilation to cultural transmutation. A total of 159 students, 92 international and 67 U.S. students, responded to mailed questionnaires. The main findings suggest that cultural adjustment is simultaneously affected by employment level, language spoken at home, having both American and native friends, internal decision making, and work value. The study supports a native-extinction, host-association model of cultural adjustment.
