Dependable Strengths Articulation Process (DSAP) is a self-development process designed to facilitate positive self-constructions and improved personal functioning. This study examined the effectiveness of DSAP interventions. Participants (N=30) were college graduates who had expressed a desire to improve their educational and career planning and decision-making skills. Participants completed the Adjective Check List (ACL) before and after the DSAP workshops. Results showed significant changes in the expected direction for all but one of the ACL scales. The second evaluation included career exploration clients (N=17) of students enrolled in a graduate career counseling course who completed a modified version of the DSAP. Four of seven ACL scales completed showed changes in the expected direction. The third evaluation included federal government employees (N=27) who particpated in a career planning workshop based on DSAP concepts. Participants described themselves as having more self-confidence. The fourth evaluation included teachers (N=22) enrolled in a summer course based on DSAP concepts designed to help them improve the motivation to achieve and the self-esteem of their students. Results showed teachers used a higher proportion of favorable adjectives and a lower proportion of unfavorable adjectives to describe themselves at the end of the course than at the beginning. In the final evaluation a comparison group of university students (N=33) in a course for prospective teachers completed the ACL on two occasions; the comparison group did not show significant changes in ACL scores.
