Barocas, Ralph; Vance, Forrest L.

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 21, 2, 96-100, Mar74

Counselors retrospectively rated the attractiveness of students seen for personal problems at a university counseling center. Counselors' retrospective ratings were related to interview performance, initial clinical status, and prognosis. Regardless of sex of counselor or client, attractiveness ratings by counselors were significantly related to prognosis, expecially for female clients. (Author)
