Preparing Counselors for Work with Older People
Authors: MYERS JANE E. , BLAKE RICHARD H.
Published: December 2011

Several indicators suggest that older persons have been accepted as one of the special populations in U.S. society with whom counselors may appropriately work and for whom counselors need special preparation. Various approaches to providing such preparation are identified, including the integrated, separate course, concentration, and interdisciplinary models. Advantages and limitations of each model are discussed. The basic competencies described in the Accreditation Manual of the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (1982) are proposed as an appropriate guide for the content of gerontological counseling curricula. Examples of how gerontological counseling topics can relate to the basic competencies are provided.
The Great Therapists Program: Computerized Learning of Counseling Theories
Authors: HALPAIN DALE R. , DIXON DAVID N. , GLOVER JOHN A.
Published: December 2011

The authors examine the effectiveness and subjective enjoyment of a computer‐assisted instruction program to teach neophyte counselors classic methods of psychotherapy. Software was developed that called for beginning counseling students to simulate dialogue with a client via the computer's keyboard. Students were able to compare their responses with those of classic therapists. Provisions for a printed record of the session were made. Questionnaires, knowledge tests, and students' choices of counseling styles provided investigators with feedback on learning and level of positive response to the teaching method. As with most computer‐assisted instruction studies, no evidence supporting increases in learning was obtained; however, free responses and ratings indicated that the students positively evaluated the program as a learning experience.
Toward a Developmental Counseling Curriculum
Authors: IVEY ALLEN E. , GONCALVES OSCAR F.
Published: December 2011

Extensive attention has been given by ACES and AACD to the unique role of the counseling profession. It is suggested that the definition of the profession lies in the association name: American Association for Counseling and Development. Counselors must integrate developmental theory systematically into the practice of counseling. Several alternative developmental models are summarized in this article, along with their implications for the future. Special attention is given to the soul of counseling, which is defined as a professional commitment to development. Counseling is not psychology, it is a specialized profession with a unique role in society.

Moral Development and Empathy in Counseling
Authors: BOWMAN JAMES T. , REEVES T. GLEN
Published: December 2011

Of interest to counselor educators are variables associated with helper empathy. The authors investigated the relationship between empathy and moral development. Students enrolled in a facilitative skills development course completed a measure of moral development before making their first counseling audiotape. After approximately 12 weeks of skills training, they were subsequently rated for their demonstration of empathic understanding to client statements on an analog videotape and on a counseling audiotape made for their course evaluation. Empathy ratings of their responses to the analog videotape correlated .61 (p < .001) with moral development scores and .35 (p < .05) with supervisory empathy ratings of their final audiotape and moral development scores. Implications for counselor education are discussed.
Experiential Learning Theory as a Guide for Effective Teaching
Authors: MURRELL PATRICIA H. , CLAXTON CHARLES S.
Published: December 2011

David Kolb's experiential learning theory involves a framework that can be helpful in designing courses that meet the needs of diverse learners. Kolb described learning as made up of two dimensions, prehending or grasping information, and transforming or processing that information. The prehending dimension ranges from concrete experience to abstract conceptualization. The transforming dimension ranges from reflective observation to active experimentation. Kolb suggested that learning occurs as the individual moves through a cycle of concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. The cycle is then repeated at more complex levels. A course design that provides systematic activities in all four of these modes (concrete experience, reflective observations, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation) will be sensitive to the students' learning styles while at the same time challenging them to develop competence in other ways of learning as well. Students are thus encouraged to master the information with which the course deals and to develop skills in processing and applying that information. They are therefore engaged in learning how to learn, a competence that is critically important for effective adult functioning.
Inclusion of Biological Foundations of Human Behavior in Counselor Education
Authors: PANTHER EDWARD E.
Published: December 2011

Biological factors, including those that are genetically based, often affect human behavior profoundly. A lack of knowledge and awareness of these factors by counselors may result in failure to provide or ensure adequate help for their clients. Despite recommendations that information on biological foundations be included in counselor education programs, current textbooks and counseling approaches studied by prospective counselors largely omit this area. Through case study examples, the significance of biological factors is explored. The author recommends that counselor educators understand the biological foundations of behavior and begin to incorporate such information into their instruction.
The Results of the Implementation of a Professional Supervision Model on Counselor Trainee Behavior
Authors: MARTIN G. ERIC , McBRIOE MARTHA C.
Published: December 2011

This article presents the results of the application of a professional model for practicum supervision using co‐equal supervisors. This study found that beginning practicum students (a) learned to use a counseling theory in a professional manner with clients, (b) were rated by an expert rater as having skills equal to or higher than a comparison group of interns, graduate students, and employed agency counselors, and (c) rated the professional supervision practicum higher than did those under the usual apprenticeship supervision model. The authors suggest that counselor educators and supervisors can train students in less time to respond at a more complex skill level than has been previously reported in the literature.

Data were analyzed for patterns of response across groups. Size and type of program and reasons central to program decisions concerning accreditation provided focus for the study. Implications of the findings are discussed.

Case Type, Anchoring Errors, and Counselor Education
Authors: PAIN MICHELLE D. , SHARPLEY CHRISTOPHER F.
Published: December 2011

The presence of anchoring errors within a counseling education student sample was investigated using three sets of case material. After reading information that was “good,” “bad,” and “neutral,” participants were asked to rate the mental health of the three hypothetical clients varying in severity. Case type and order of presentation of the pieces of information were randomized across participants. Results indicated that anchoring errors were present for all three cases regardless of severity, but that the presence of anchoring errors was restricted to those made as a result of reading “bad” material. Implications for alerting students in counselor educator programs to the presence of anchoring errors and the need to avoid them are discussed.

Emergence of the Cultural Dimension: The Roles and Impact of Culture on Counseling Supervision
Authors: LEONG FREDERICK T. L.
Published: December 2011

No man ever looks at the world with pristine eyes. He sees it edited by a definite set of customs and institutions and ways of thinking. Even in his philosophical probings he cannot go behind these stereotypes; his very concepts of the true and the false will still have reference to his particular traditional customs. … From the moment of his birth the customs into which he is born shape his experience and behaviour. By the time he can talk, he is the little creature of his culture, and by the time he is grown and able to take part in its activities, its habits are his habits, its beliefs his beliefs, its impossibilities his impossibilities. Every child that is born into his group will share them with him, and no child born into one on the opposite side of the globe can ever achieve the thousandth part. There is no social problem it is more incumbent upon us to understand than this of the role of custom. Until we are intelligent as to its laws and varieties, the main complicating facts of human life must remain unintelligible. (pp. 2–3)

Authors: LUMADUE CHRISTINE A. , DUFFEY THELMA H.

This article reviews the ethical and legal mandates relevant to developing and implementing a gatekeeping model. It presents a model endorsed, in principle, by the Texas Association of Counselor Educators that uses a behaviorally specific student evaluation instrument developed in accordance with competencies outlined in the American Counseling Association (1995) Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice.

Authors: ZIMMICK RENEE , SMABY MARLOWE H. , MADDUX CLEBORNE D.
Published: December 2011

This study tested the Skilled Group Counseling Training Model (SGCTM) and a related instrument, the Skilled Group Counseling Scale. Retraining of raters and later rescoring of data from a previous study resulted in an improvement of interrater reliability; a factor‐analytic study of the scale revealed a single, global factor; and students in a group counseling class who were trained in the model used at least 80% of the SGCTM skills during three videotaped, simulated group counseling sessions. During these sessions, the students adhered to one of three counseling theories (Person‐Centered, Gestalt, and Rational‐Emotive Behavioral Therapy).

Authors: McKee Lynne M. , Levinson Edward M.
Published: December 2011

This article discusses general issues and concerns relative to the adaptation of paper‐pencil assessment instruments to computerized formats. The computerized form of the Self‐Directed Search is described and evaluated. Strengths and weaknesses of the SDS‐CV are presented and recommendations regarding its use are discussed. In that additional research is needed regarding the reliability and validity of scores attained on the computerized SDS, we concluded that information from this version of the instrument should be interpreted cautiously. The computerized SDS, however, has the potential of becoming a useful instrument in the career counseling field.

Alignment of Family and Work Roles
Authors: Zimmerman Jill , Cochran Larry
Published: December 2011

This study investigated the similarity of family members and co‐workers. A total of 75 human service workers each rated up to four positive and four negative family members, and four positive and four negative co‐workers on six dimensions drawn from Holland's (1985) six vocational types. The results indicated that positive family members were significantly more similar to positive co‐workers than were negative co‐workers. Negative family members were significantly more similar to negative co‐workers than were positive co‐workers. These results were interpreted to support the general proposition that individuals re‐enact family dramas in work, suggesting that a major way that a family drama is established in work involves casting co‐workers in customary roles.

Sociopolitical Development and Vocational Expectations Among Lower Socioeconomic Status Adolescents of Color
Authors: Diemer Matthew A. , Hsieh Chueh‐An
Published: December 2011

The well‐documented aspiration‐expectation gap refers to lower socioeconomic status (SES) adolescents of color expecting to attain occupations with lower pay and status than the occupations to which they aspire. Sociopolitical inequity, such as structural racism and asymmetrical access to resources, may explain this gap. This article examines the capacity to cope with sociopolitical inequity (i.e., sociopolitical development) and its relationship to vocational expectations among this population. Analyses revealed that sociopolitical development was associated with higher vocational expectations and may contribute to reducing the vocational aspiration‐expectation gap among lower SES adolescents of color. Furthermore, career counseling, guidance, and psychosocial interventions may be augmented by incorporating sociopolitical development.
