The research part of the thesis describes the qualitative research aimed at identifying and describing the benefits of Job Clubs for individuals with physical and combined disabilities in improving their employability. The research was carried out in o. s. Asistence from December 2007 to April 2008 using the structured interview methodology. Two groups of respondents were interviewed.

Today, the concurrent and retrospective verbal reports are considered to be the main source of data about cognitive processes of subject. They became the standard research method also in many fields of applied psychology. Thinking aloud is distinguished from verbal explanation of particular steps of problem solving. Effects of verbalization, problem of completeness of verbal reports, inferences from verbal data, Ericsson's and Simon's model of verbalization, methods and techniques of protocol analysis are dealt with. Verbal reports are rich source of data that can be combined effectively with other data and can be of great value for acquiring knowledge about more than cognitive processes and structures. Practical recommendations for gaining different types of verbal reports under standard conditions are presented that can be analysed by the means of protocol analysis.
