This book was released on 1970 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was designed to investigate the effects of group counseling on the self concept and academic achievement of high school sophomore health classes. Specific hypotheses to be examined were: 1. The experimental group will evidence more improvement in academic achievement score than will the control group. 2. The experimental group will evidence more improvement in self concept score than will the control group. A review of the literature in group counseling suggests that it can be a factor in increasing measured self concept and measured academic achievement. Within these two areas, however, there were also negative and inconclusive findings. The sample consisted of four tenth-grade required health classes at Corvallis. High School, Corvallis, Oregon. Fifty one individuals participated in the experimental group. They were exposed to group counseling for ten weeks. Complete testing data was obtained for 45 experimental subjects. Fifty individuals participated in the control group. They received ten lectures on health during the same time span as the experimental subjects. Complete testing data was obtained for 43 control subjects. Statistical treatment was applied to the data for 88 subjects. The Tennessee Self Concept Scale and a teacher constructed unit test were administered to subjects prior to the beginning of the research and at the conclusion of the project. Two separate scores on 88 individuals were tabulated. Analysis of variance of experimental variance gain was used comparing experimental and control groups on each instrument. Comparisons between experimental improvement and control improvement scores on the health test did not yield a difference significant at the .05 level, Comparisons on the Tennessee Self Concept scores between experimental and control groups did not yield a difference significant at the .05 level. The effect of group counseling and academic achievement was not determined by this study. Further analysis of the data was made using the orthogonal single degree of freedom analysis of variance. An F- ratio of 6.56, significant at the .015 level was found on the health test scores favoring experimental females and control males. Recommendations for further research in group counseling include: 1. Determination of the maximum effective group size, 2. Investigation with subjects at different age levels, 3. Participation based on specific criteria. 4. Utilization of group counseling in a planned, announced, voluntary course curriculum. 5. Investigation of the effect of group counseling on counselor's image. 6. Utilization of co-counselors in larger group settings. 7. Increasing number of sessions. 8. Investigation of sex variable on academic achievement. 9. Investigation of effect of the sex of group leader upon adolescents. 10. Evaluation using long-term follow up tests. 11. Investigation of instruments used in group counseling evaluation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential text unpacks major transformations in the study of learning and human development and provides evidence for how science can inform innovation in the design of settings, policies, practice, and research to enhance the life path, opportunity and prosperity of every child. The ideas presented provide researchers and educators with a rationale for focusing on the specific pathways and developmental patterns that may lead a specific child, with a specific family, school, and community, to prosper in school and in life. Expanding key published articles and expert commentary, the book explores a profound evolution in thinking that integrates findings from psychology with biology through sociology, education, law, and history with an emphasis on institutionalized inequities and disparate outcomes and how to address them. It points toward possible solutions through an understanding of and addressing the dynamic relations between a child and the contexts within which he or she lives, offering all researchers of human development and education a new way to understand and promote healthy development and learning for diverse, specific youth regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or history of adversity, challenge, or trauma. The book brings together scholars and practitioners from the biological/medical sciences, the social and behavioral sciences, educational science, and fields of law and social and educational policy. It provides an invaluable and unique resource for understanding the bases and status of the new science, and presents a roadmap for progress that will frame progress for at least the next decade and perhaps beyond.

This book was released on 1971 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose this study was to determine how group counseling influenced attitudes of low-income youth toward self, others, and society. The subjects, all high school age, were participants in an education program held on a college campus during the 1970 regular collegiate summer session. They lived in a residence hall and attended morning and afternoon classes. Two group counseling methods were employed. Group I was content oriented with subjects watching films dealing with human relationships. Counselor-led discussion was limited to the assumed intentions and behavior of the characters portrayed on film. In Group II the subjects and counselor interacted with respect to human relationships within the group. Group III, the control, had no counseling but met for group recreational activities. Three hypotheses were tested. 1. There will be a significant change in attitudes toward self, others, and society between the experimental content counseling group and the control group after 13 counseling sessions. 2. There will be a significant change in attitudes toward self, others, and society between the experimental process counseling group and the control group after 13 counseling sessions. 3. There will be no significant difference in attitudes toward self, others, and society between the content and process counseling groups after 13 counseling sessions. The sample consisted of 60 subjects who were randomly selected from the 93 students enrolled in the project. Two experimental groups and the control were formed from the sample. Complete pre-test and post-test results were obtained from 45 subjects. The Tennessee Self Concept Scale and a Semantic Differential were administered to the subjects. Group pre-test and post-test results for each instrument were analyzed by a fixed-two-way analysis of variance, as were differences among the three groups. Hypotheses one and two were not supported since no significant differences were found in the results. Hypothesis three was upheld, although without meaning since all three groups were not significantly different. All groups dropped significantly on the Semantic Differential concept, I AM. The effects of group counseling on the attitudes of economically disadvantaged youth was not determined by this study. Recommendations 1. Increase the number and length of counseling sessions. Perhaps include a weekend session away from the campus. 2. Include a follow-up study. 3. Add a second control group not part of the residential program. 4. Establish counselor effectiveness prior to another study. 5. Compare mean change of subjects counseled in a group with those counseled individually. 6. Counselees and counselor establish mutually agreed upon desired individual behavioral changes prior to counseling. 7. Find an instrument that measures more subtle changes in attitudes.
