About our research

VocFit.com is a  decision support tool  that aids transition teams engaged in the customized employment process. It provides detailed information regarding: 
  1. Job seeker interests, skills, strengths and needs 
  2. Workplace needs, requirements and demands 
Researchers at Colorado State University and Ohio State University are conducting research to help improve the Vocational Fit Assessment and its use for individuals with intellectual disabilities. We are currently recruiting for research that is funded by the National Institutes of Health and offer a choice of cash or gift card incentives. 

What will I be asked to do?

Participant dyads will: 
  • Provide background information on the adult with intellectual disability 
  • Talk about what they are good at or interested in 
How long will it take? 
  • Each interview will take approximately 2 hours. 
  • There will be 4 interviews: now, in 2-4 weeks, in 6-12 months, and in 12-24 months 
  • We may invite you to complete a fifth interview at or around 2 years after the first interview. 
  • Upon request, questions canbe given to participant dyads ahead of time to allow more time for reading and preparation. 
Will I be compensated?
  • We will pay each member of the dyad $40 for each interview (administered on 4 occasions so each member of the dyad can expect to receive $180) 
  • ​If you complete a fifth interview, you can expect to be paid $200 total.
