[Comparative evaluation of the usefulness of the methods of studying binocular vision for purposes of vocational guidance].

The deficiency of binocular vision calls for an absolute contraindication to perform a number of occupations. It is not easy to evaluate the binocular vision disturbance, especially in young people. Therefore it was decided to check the binocular vision by six methods and compare the results. Among 199 pupils of the seventh form of primary schools, the following binocular vision disturbances have been found: in 18% of subjects on stereometer, in 15% on a projector with polarizing glasses, in 14% lack of protective reflexes, in 13% on stereoscope, in 11,6% on synoptophore and lack of ambiopia after using the prism in 9% of subjects. All the tests yielded negative findings in 5,5% of subjects. The obtained data suggest that it is not enough to use just one method for a thorough determination of binocular vision.

[A team approach in unemployed persons with psychosomatic disorders].

A survey was conducted among persons with the health disorders considered to be aggravating factors in finding employment, who were on the list of the unemployed registered with a regional employment bureau. In 1994/1995 forty persons were selected and examined by a vocational guidance team. The team included a psychologist, a pedagogue, an occupational health specialist, a legal advisor and the employment bureau officer. The criteria were based on the health disorders that are contraindicative for an occupation, on the length of unemployment, time of onset of disease or disability, social status, satisfactory residual work capacity for another occupation, job opportunity and on the person's motivation for work, retraining, earning additional qualifications or for schooling. Results demonstrate that investing in vocational guidance is justified if negative selection as well as a futile loss of time, money and effort spent on schooling are to be avoided. The programme of retraining, additional training and finding an occupation in accordance with one's residual work capacity continues to be applicable only in the case of a newly diagnosed disease, newly inflicted injury or wound as well as a useful and humane method in the work of employment bureaus and vocational guidance teams.
