Professional School Counselors and the Practice of Group Work
Steen, Sam; Bauman, Sheri; Smith, Julie
Professional School Counseling, v11 n2 p72-80 Dec 2007
An online survey about the use of small groups by school counselors was completed by 802 members of the American School Counseling Association. The vast majority of respondents offered groups in their schools, but were most influenced in that decision by time constraints. Qualitative analysis of comment data provided more depth and insight about school counselors' practice of group work. Implications and recommendations are discussed. (Contains 4 tables and 1 figure.)
