Status of Independence as Variables in Microcounseling Training of Adolescents

Kloba, Joseph A., Jr.; Zimpfer, David G.

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 23, 5, 458-463, Sep 76

High school sophomores (N=104) aspiring to be peer counselors were studied to determine whether trainees, blocked on variables of dependency-independency, would learn helping skills of open-ended comments more effectively from microcounseling using a high-status model or one in which no special status was attributed to the model. Results are discussed. (Author)
