Allen, Amanda H.; Jones, Gabrielle D.; Baker, Stanley B.; Martinez, Robert R.
Professional School Counseling, v23 n1 2019
An elementary school counselor and intern delivered a six-session curriculum unit designed to enhance career and college readiness self-efficacy to 47 fourth-grade students. The intervention effect was compared with 48 other fourth-grade students. Ninety percent of the variance was due to ethnicity differences. White students had higher self-efficacy scores at the outset and after the intervention, while Black and Hispanic students in the treatment achieved higher self-efficacy scores than those in the control condition.
