PROBLEMS APPROPRIATE FOR DISCUSSION IN UNIVERSITY COUNSELING CENTERS - A REPLICATION

Investigated the extent to which 6 counselors at Canadian institutions rate problems of vocational choice, college routine, and adjustment to self and others as appropriate for discussion in counseling through a replication of R. E. Warman's study (see 36:1 and 36:5). As hypothesized, the results were consistent with those obtained by Warman in that significant differences were found among centers on the rated appropriateness of the 1st 2 problem areas. Contrary to the hypothesis, adjustment problems were not rated significantly different among the 21 centers employed in the study. This discrepant result is discussed in light of the relative smallness of Canadian institutions when compared with their United States counterparts.
