AbstractChildren from advantaged backgrounds tend to obtain more education and consequently have higher status occupations as adults. Researchers often conceptualize the transition from school to work as discrete and the influence of education on employment characteristics as unidirectional. The goal of this research is to identify whether jobs during college are part of the status attainment process. First, it describes characteristics of student employment by family background, number of years in college, and season. College students from the most advantaged backgrounds have higher status jobs. Regardless of family background, students who have been college-enrolled for more years have higher levels of occupational status. Second, the analyses investigate the association between occupational status and college persistence. In typical college student jobs, employment (especially extensive employment) is negatively associated with college persistence. This negative association between employment and college persistence reverses, however, and becomes positive as occupational status increases.

Abstract Linguistic interaction models suggest that interrelationships arise between structural language components and between structural and pragmatic components when language is used in social contexts. The linguist, David Crystal (1986, 1987), has proposed that these relationships are central, not peripheral, to achieving desired clinical outcomes. For individuals with severe communication challenges, erratic or unpredictable relationships between structural and pragmatic components can result in atypical patterns of interaction between them and members of their social communities, which may create a perception of disablement. This paper presents a case study of a woman with fluent, Wernicke's aphasia that illustrates how attention to patterns of linguistic interaction may enhance AAC intervention for adults with aphasia.
