与一般人口相比，被诊断患有严重精神疾病的人的失业率高得多。对这种情况的解释包括：关注与这些疾病相关的症状，关注缺乏针对这一人群的有效职业康复方案，以及最近关注雇主歧视和各种公共政策中对就业的财政抑制因素。这篇手稿的作者回顾了与严重精神疾病患者的劳动力市场经历有关的思想演变，并提出了一组应考虑的额外因素，即该人群与经历类似就业历史的无残疾人共享的劳动力市场负债。作者的结论是，在我们对严重精神疾病患者在竞争激烈的劳动力市场上面临的问题的理解中纳入这些因素可能会导致项目和政策发展的进一步演变。版权所有（C）2002约翰威利父子有限公司
Persons diagnosed with a serious mental illness experience significantly high rates of unemployment compared with the general population. The explanations for this situation have included a focus on the symptoms associated with these disorders, a focus on the lack of effective vocational rehabilitation programs for this population, and, most recently, a focus on employer discrimination and the financial disincentives to employment in various public policies. The authors of this manuscript review the evolution in thought pertaining to the labor market experiences of persons with a serious mental illness and propose as an additional set of factors that should be considered, those labor market liabilities that this population shares with others without disabilities who experience similar employment histories. The authors conclude that the inclusion of these factors in our understanding of issues that persons with serious mental illness face in the competitive labor market will likely lead to a further evolution in program and policy development.
