Dependable Strengths Articulation Process (DSAP) is a self-development process designed to facilitate positive self-constructions and improved personal functioning through a systematic intervention that enables participants to recognize, articulate, communicate and use their Dependable Strengths. Because it is a peer-assisted process, each participant experiences a degree of interdependency. In a seminar or workshop, short exercises are given to illuminate some ways in which research, technology and financial changes impact each person's life. Participants recall experiences which have come close to being self-actualizing and which are named "good experiences." Good experiences are prioritized for top importance. In support teams, while one participant describes how he/she went about making the good experiences happen, the others write down strengths they hear the person describing. Participants write reports describing how they operate at their best, what strengths are used, and how they combine in career developing activities. In shorter exercises, participants study past achievements and accomplishments. The outcomes of DSAP indicate that it is at least as effective and less costly to individualize such counseling in groups. Perhaps a new time has arrived for career and life planning. (An appendix provides a guide for an intervention process which teaches students to appreciate their Dependable Strengths and the potential value of this knowledge for their future development. Seven stages are described.) (ABL)
