This book was released on 2014 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public's perception of counselors has been a topic of concern for many researchers. However, research examining the attitudes towards seeking mental health services and the effect such perceptions have on the propensity of public use is in its prime. Such knowledge is necessary for the benefit of the consumer as well as concerned mental health professional organizations. Furthermore, the ability to discriminate consumer perception based on the professional identity of the mental health service provider will serve as a benchmark for a young profession- counseling- to understand its current status in the minds of the general public, in comparison to related mental health professions, and for counseling professional organizations to better allocate resources aimed at professional advocacy efforts. As potential consumers of mental health services, it is of great merit to understand college students' perceptions of mental health professionals' therapeutic competence, and their attitudes towards seeking services based on the identity of the mental health service provider; i.e. counselor, psychologist, or social worker. This study provided an overview of - three helping professions: counseling, psychology, and social work. Additionally, it expanded upon the circumstances surrounding the origination of each discipline and their governing bodies, current vocational opportunities and average salaries for members of each discipline, the rationale for conducting this study and the psychometric properties of the instrument- the Inventory of Attitudes toward Seeking Mental Health Services (IASMHS)- utilized by this study. The primary hypothesis which suggested a significant difference in student perception of the mental health professional's level of competence with respect to the identity of the professional was tested. Additionally, student attitudes towards seeking mental health services were measured and a comparison on the basis of the identity of the helper was drawn. The research was unable to find statistical significance regarding the previously posed hypotheses. However, a significant difference was noted between the sexes and their propensity to seek mental health services such that the females in this sample were more likely to seek mental health services than were the male participants. Furthermore, a statistically significant and moderate relationship existed between the number of courses taken in a helping discipline and participants' attitudes towards seeking professional mental health services such that as the number of courses completed increased, so did the positive manner in which participants viewed seeking mental health services. The researcher concluded the study by addressing its limitations and discussing future suggestions for researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research evidence suggests that counseling services have a positive impact on retention efforts in higher education (Sharkin, 2004). There is also research that supports the use of evaluation of centers for administrators to justify improving services. Although research supports the contribution of college counseling centers to retention, there is need for more assessment of overall counseling center services. This study explores student perceptions of a college counseling center's services and what influences those perceptions have. Many factors influence the decisions students make concerning whether to remain in school or leave. This study used an outcome survey given to students seen at a University of Alabama Counseling Center. It was given to every Counseling Center client who had been seen for at least 3 sessions. It was given during a 4-week period in the spring semester 2011. There was a significant relationship between satisfaction and importance of counseling center services. Students who thought services were important were also satisfied with services and vice versa. Males and females did not differ in their perception of the importance of the relationship with the counselor. Freshmen, sophomores, junior, seniors, and others did not differ in their perception of the importance of relationship with the counselor. Overall, students were satisfied with counseling services at The University of Alabama.

Book excerpt: The point of entry into higher education for approximately half of all students is America's community colleges. Community colleges provide access to higher education to students who are extremely diverse in their educational preparation and personal backgrounds. Student services administrators and counselors agree that today's students are more in need of counseling services than ever before. At the same time, counseling positions are being decreased or even eliminated in all sectors of education. Counselors are on the front lines of providing critical services to under prepared or high-risk students. If the current trend continues, many high-risk students may not receive the assistance they need to be successful in college. This qualitative, action research study was designed to investigate why community college counseling positions are being decreased or eliminated altogether. Presidents, student services administrators, and counselors from four Iowa community colleges were interviewed over a period of four months. The perceptions of research participants were gathered to gain a fuller understanding of the factors that have led to the decrease of counseling positions in Iowa and to determine what actions counselors and administrators can take to effectively resolve this problem. The research findings include participant perspectives regarding the current state of community college counseling and suggestions on how community college counselors can demonstrate their professional value on campus. The document also discusses how counselors and administrators can collaborate to utilize counselor skills and professional training to the fullest. Themes that emerged from the data include, but are not limited to, marketing counseling services, campus collaboration, and assessing and documenting the effectiveness of counseling services. Specific actions are suggested for counselors, as well as administrators, to move toward mutual understanding and support of the counseling function within the community college. Several recommendations for future research are also included in the document.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two-fold purpose of this study is (1) to determine differences in perception of counseling and guidance needs between community college bound high school seniors, community college counselors, and chief student services administrators, and (2) to establish the nature and priority of counseling and guidance needs of community college bound high school seniors. Three hundred ninety-nine subjects, representing three sample groups, participated in this study. The groups and the percentage of survey return are as follows: high school seniors (85%); community college counselors (82%); and chief student services administrators (95%). The responses of this total population to the 70 items on the Student Needs Assessment Survey provided the data for this study. An Analysis of Variance statistical design was used to determine the significance of the differences between the perceptions of the three groups. Within the limitations of the study the following major conclusions were drawn: 1. There is a significant difference in the perception of counseling and guidance needs between community college bound high school seniors and community college counselors. 2. There is a significant difference in the perception of counseling and guidance needs between community college bound high school seniors and community college chief student services administrators. 3. There is no significant difference in the perception of counseling and guidance needs between community college counselors and chief student services administrators. 4. There is no significant difference in the perception of counseling and guidance needs between community college bound high school seniors from rural, suburban, city, and metropolitan areas of Western Washington.
