Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the Rehabilitation Science field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Rehabilitation Science majors need many skills, but most especially Social Perceptiveness. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that Rehabilitation Science majors need more than the average amount of Social Perceptiveness, Service Orientation, Operations Analysis, Monitoring, Learning Strategies, Persuasion, Coordination, Systems Analysis, Systems Evaluation, Negotiation, Active Listening, Speaking, Writing, Management of Personnel Resources, Instructing, Reading Comprehension, Critical Thinking, Judgment and Decision Making, Time Management, Complex Problem Solving, Active Learning, Science, Technology Design, Mathematics, Programming, Management of Financial Resources, Operation Monitoring, Management of Material Resources, Quality Control Analysis, Operation and Control, Equipment Selection, Installation, Equipment Maintenance, Troubleshooting, and Repairing.
These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for Rehabilitation Science majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average. The longer the bar or the closer the line comes to the circumference of the circle, the more important that skill is. The importance of Social Perceptiveness is very distinctive for majors, but the Social Perceptiveness, Active Listening, Speaking, Service Orientation, Monitoring, Reading Comprehension, Writing, Critical Thinking, Coordination, Judgment and Decision Making, Learning Strategies, Persuasion, Complex Problem Solving, Systems Analysis, Systems Evaluation, Active Learning, Time Management, Negotiation, Instructing, Operations Analysis, Management of Personnel Resources, Science, Mathematics, Operation Monitoring, Technology Design, Management of Financial Resources, Programming, Management of Material Resources, Quality Control Analysis, Operation and Control, Equipment Selection, Installation, Equipment Maintenance, Troubleshooting, and Repairing are the three most important skills for people in the field.
