abstract: 'Background: Young adulthood is an important transitional life phase that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
can determine a person''s career trajectory. To date, little research has
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
examined the influence of arthritis on early work experiences.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Objectives: This literature review aims at examining the impact of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
arthritis on the early career phase of young adults and identifying the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
barriers to employment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Methods: Two independent reviewers searched bibliographic databases for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
arthritis conditions and a series of employment-related keywords and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
subject headings. Information on authors, publication year; study
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
design, sample characteristics (e.g., number of participants, age,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender, arthritis type); work outcomes measured; and specific barriers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to employment was recorded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results: Nine studies were uncovered in the review. All studies examined
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
young people with juvenile arthritis (9 of 9 studies) and consisted of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sample sizes with less then 150 participants (6 of 9 studies) who were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
primarily recruited from clinics (7 of 9 studies). All were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cross-sectional designs. Employment status was primarily examined and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ranged from 11\% to 71\%. Although not always statistically significant,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
young adults with arthritis were less likely to be employed when
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared to their healthy peers. Greater disease severity, less
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
educational attainment and being female were related to not
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participating in paid work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusion: This review brings to light the paucity of studies examining
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the early employment experiences of young adults with arthritis. There
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is a need to expand research to contribute to recommendations for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sustained and productive employment across the working life course. (C)
