        GUIDE TO COUNSELING MATERIALS

Selected WMC Publications Useful to School and Adult Counselors

INTRODUCTION

   The War Manpower Commission issues many publications aimed to assist its employment counselors and placement officers in helping applicants to secure employment. Since there is obviously a close relationship between the work of these officials and counselors in other capacities, certain occupational and labor market publications issued are significant in general counseling situations.
   In order that professional workers responsible for guidance programs in States, cities, schools, and adult centers may become familiar with the materials originating at the headquarters office of the War Manpower Commission in Washington, D. C., an annotated summary of materials available is presented herewith. Other publications of this kind originating in local USES offices and in the area, State, and regional offices of the WMC may also have significance to workers in the field of counseling, but information about these must be obtained by writing directly to such offices in the various States.
   General usefulness of publications. Most publications mentioned in the pages that follow are important in the administration of city and State guidance programs, and useful to State supervisors of occupational information and guidance; counselor-trainers, whether in higher institutions or engaged in in-service training; city and county directors of guidance; and others who supervise the work of counselors, whether they work in schools or serve in adult counseling centers. Many of these publications should be on the shelves of public libraries and of school and college libraries.
Starred (?) publications. Certain publications are starred (*) to indicate those especially useful to counselors of in-school youth. Such publications are in general those that describe or define

many occupations and give information that may be used in guidance programs, occupations classes, occupational files, and individual guidance service.

(1) Free publications: Single copies are furnished free upon request to the War Manpower Commission, Washington 25, D. C.

     How to order. By purchase only. Send check or money order to Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D. C.
* * *
 *  1. Parti . . . Definitions of Titles. June 1939. 1,287 pp. $2.00.
      Defines occupations and supplies uniform names for basic occupations in agriculture, trades and services, industry, professions, and crafts. It identifies each job through the assignment of an occupationally significant code number. The Dictionary is a source book for counselors and identifies 17,452 jobs with their code numbers; and more than 29,000 titles are listed alphabetically. More than 55,000 copies of the Dictionary are now in use by the U. S. Employment Service, schools, libraries, Armed Forces, Selective Service, and other agencies of government and industry.
 *  2. Part II . . . Group Arrangement of Occupational Titles and Codes. June 1939. 330 pp. $1.00.
     Presents the structure of the U. S. Employment Service occupational classification. Titles defined in Part I are listed here in numerical order according to the assigned code numbers. They are arranged into defined major groups, divisions, and subdivisions which bring together jobs that are related because of similar skills, knowledge, and abilities required.
 *  3. Supplement . . . Dictionary of Occupational Titles Supplement, Edition II. July 1943. 525 pp. 60^.
     An extension of Parts I and II of the Dictionary. Defines more than 4,000 additional basic jobs in activities important to production.

 *  4. Part IV . . . Entry Occupational Classification. Revised October 1944. 242 pp. 35^. Offers techniques and a structure for the classification of job applicants who must find employment on some basis other than prior work experience or fully qualifying training. Example of such applicants are schoolleavers, veterans without prior work experience, or the physically handicapped. Classifications are assigned in such instances on the basis of interests, aptitudes, leisure time activities, casual work experience, or vocational training offered by the applicant. The structure is also useful because it defines fields of work and lists occupations in the field which are open to beginning workers.
National Job Descriptions. For 16 major industries, the following bound volumes contain occupational information describing work performed, equipment used, and the customary upgrading and transfer job-relationships. Occu-' pations in more than half of the normal industrial activities of the country are covered. Job descriptions are based upon analysis of each job in a number of establishments, and show important variations in the jobs. Descriptions for each major occupation include what the worker does on that job, how he does it, why he does it, and the skills required. Thus data are provided for such personnel administration functions as the selection and training of workers, upgrading, the determination of the physical requirements of jobs, and the establishment of a job evaluation system. An index to the hundreds of occupations covered is provided, but is available only at the local, State, and regional offices of the USES and WMC. For illustration, see Fig. 4. As an example of the contents of these columns, take No. 5—Bakery Products Industry. The introduction describes the baking industry and bakery processes in general, after which follows job descriptions beginning with “batter mixer.” Shows work performed, equipment used, working conditions, relation to other jobs, and specialized qualifications. Among the jobs covered are: Mixing jobs, product forming and shaping jobs, oven jobs, finishing and icing jobs

*32. National Physical Demands Information Series: Number I—Apprenticeable Occupations. November 1944. 112 pp. Free.
     First of a series. Provides physical demands information which is typical of apprenticeable occupations. A companion volume to “Selective Placement for the Handicapped, Revised.” (See No. 40.) Occupations included are those in which persons with handicaps are generally found to be serving formal apprenticeships. Others in the series will be released from time to time based upon occupations in specific industries. For illustration, see Figs. 13 and 14. Prepared in cooperation with the Apprentice-Training Service, Bureau of Training.
        Use. This publication is intended primarily for the use of school and adult counselors, apprenticeship supervisors, apprenticeship committeemen, and others who counsel youth and adults contemplating training under formal apprenticeship programs.
        How to order. Single copy may be obtained free from the Division of Occupational Analysis, Bureau of Manpower Utilization, War Manpower Commission, Washington 25, D. C.

Testing Materials

  Local United States Employment Service offices in many towns administer tests to applicants. Aptitude and trade tests are among the tools that are in use to help applicants choose vocations.
  Aptitude test batteries. Aptitude test batteries have been developed for use by local United States Employment Service offices by the Division of Occupational Analysis, but these are not generally available to agencies outside of the War Manpower Commission. The local counselor, however, may learn what tests, if any, are administered locally by consulting with the local manager of the nearest United States Employment Service office.
  A number of tests standardized on employed workers are made up into aptitude test batteries. These batteries are used to predict the worker’s ability to learn a new job and to perform it successfully. They help to determine whether the aptitudes of the applicant are similar t^ those of employed workers in a specific occupation. Test batteries have been made up and standardized for many occupations within the following fields of work:


    Agriculture
    Aircraft manufacturing
    Air transportation
    Ammunition and related products
    Boot and shoe industry
    Clerical and kindred occupations
    Confectionery Construction Electrical equipment Foundry Garment Hardware
    Heating apparatus
    Hosiery Jewelry Knit goods Machine shop Optical goods Pottery and porcelain ware Printing and publising
   * Professional and kindred Radio manufacturing Rayon and allied products Refrigerator and refrigerating equipment Retail trade Sheet metal work
    Ship and boat building and repairing
    Telephone and telegraph
    Textile bags Textiles
   General counseling battery. There is being developed a general counseling battery which can be scored for fields or groups of occupations. Thus one series of tests will yield information about the individual’s chances of success or failure in the whole range of occupations.
   Trade tests. Because trade tests are never released, this description is for informational purposes only. As administered to applicants, trade tests serve as a check on the worker’s statement of his experience and training, and help the interviewer to determine the applicant’s skill. Trade tests are designed to measure a man’s knowledge of a job, the processes and operations of a job, or his skill in performing the duties of a job. Several kinds of trade tests are in use: One applicant might be asked to read a blueprint, another might be tested on an actual sample of job duties, as in the case of typing and dictation tests. Oral trade questions have been standardized for more than 200 occupations. The questions and answers are suggested by the skilled workers themselves and are phrased in the language and even the slang of the trade. Questions selected for the tests are those more often answered correctly by skilled persons than by those not skilled in the trade.
