Author: George, Serena D.

Type: Journal Articles
Subjects: Homeless People,Foreign Countries,Personal Narratives,Youth,Young Adults,Trauma,Coping,Well Being,Inquiry,Runaways,Classification,Parent Influence,Conflict,Sexual Abuse,Victims of Crime,Counseling

This research explored the experiences of 8 street-involved youth (4 male, 4 female) between the ages of 20 and 27 living in north-central British Columbia. The analysis was carried out in 3 phases based on the narrative approach developed by Lieblich, Tuval-Mashiach, and Zilber (1998). The narratives represented the holistic experiences of the youth and the meanings they attached to their experiences. The 26 themes that emerged from the data were organized into 5 main categories representing the participants' experiences prior to street life, the challenges associated with being on the streets, supports, personal qualities, and moving on. Three overarching metathemes were interpreted from the youths' narratives: trauma, coping, and the essence of living. (Contains 1 table.)
Preservice Teacher Perceptions of School Counsellor Responsibilities
Author: Joy, Rhonda M.

Type: Journal Articles
Subjects: Preservice Teachers,Foreign Countries,Faculty Development,Student Attitudes,Surveys,School Psychology,Counselor Role,Preservice Teacher Education,School Counselors

Teachers have tremendous impact on school counselling service utilization in terms of teacher-counsellor consultation and student referral. Thus, ensuring that teachers understand the roles and responsibilities of school counsellors is critical. As teachers' understanding of the school counselling role can be impacted during preservice teacher training and little has been published on preservice teachers' views of school counselling, the authors of the current study opted to explore preservice teachers' perceptions of school counsellor responsibilities. Ninety preservice teachers from Newfoundland and Labrador completed the survey. Results suggested that although preservice teachers appear to have a moderate degree of knowledge regarding a subset of school counsellor responsibilities, more effort is needed to systematically inform preservice teachers about the responsibilities of the school counsellor role. Implications for training and for school counsellor practice are discussed.
An Interpretive Account of Counsellor Development

Type: Journal Articles
Subjects: Counselor Training,Educational Practices,Professional Development,Inquiry,Foreign Countries,Masters Degrees

Using a hermeneutic approach to inquiry, the author interviewed 8 counsellors in training to gain an understanding of the question, &quot;How do counsellors in training develop, and how do they make sense of what they are doing/what is happening to them?&quot; Their accounts were integrated into a single emerging story that captures their experience and the meaning they attached to their counsellor education experiences. Organized temporally, this story of counsellor development was divided into four phases: foreshadowings, opening chapters, denouement, and final chapter (conclusions). Finally, implications for counsellor education practice are discussed. (Contains 1 table and 2 figures.)

The Constitution protects the freedom of religious exercise and against the establishment of religion by the government or its agents. Common issues faced by student affairs professionals include those associated with prayer on campus as well as the official recognition of student religious groups and their access to university resources.

Date: 2004-00-00
Type: Journal Articles
Subjects: College Seniors,Religious Factors,Counselors,Career Counseling,Gender Differences,Career Development,Correlation,Spiritual Development,Work Attitudes,Internet,Surveys,Measures (Individuals),Consciousness Raising

This study explored the relationship between spirituality and work values among graduating college seniors at a large public mid-Atlantic Research-Extensive institution. Gender differences in this relationship were also examined. Via an online survey, 429 participants completed Super's (1968) Work Values Inventory and Wheat's (1991) Human Spirituality Scale. The results revealed a low, but statistically significant relationship between spirituality and intrinsic work values (r=0.40). Between spirituality and extrinsic work values, an even lower, but statistically significant relationship existed (r=0.15), with men exhibiting higher degrees of relationship than women. These findings inform the practice of career counselors by raising awareness of gender influences on spirituality and career development. (Contains 3 tables.)

This article describes the development of an instrument to measure the multiple dimensions of student-faculty interactions. The sample consisted of 318 students (114 males, 203 females; 58% White, 16% African American, 9% Hispanic Americans) who completed the Student-Professor Interaction Scale (SPIS). Eight dimensions were identified, with Cronbach alphas ranging from 0.51 to 0.92. Dimensions of student-faculty interactions were related to academic motivation and academic self-concept for the majority White sample, but only academic self-concept for the ethnic minority sample. African American and Hispanic American students reported feeling less connected with professors, perceived their experiences with faculty as more negative, and perceived faculty as less respectful when compared to White students. Implications for student affairs research and practice are discussed. (Contains 4 tables.)

Using members of professional associations who are a part of the Council for the Advancement of Standards in Higher Education (CAS) consortia as a sample, this study investigated who uses CAS Standards, how and why they are used, and whether CAS Standards are associated with enhanced student learning. Using a quantitative analysis, this study found that 61% of the sample had heard of CAS, vice presidents were significantly more likely to have heard of CAS than those with other job titles, and CAS materials are used more as guides than for self assessment. Only 24% of the sample indicated that they measure learning outcomes, and of those 41% stated that there is a connection between student learning and CAS Standards. (Contains 3 tables and 1 figure.)
