抄録

A useful paradigm of training for beginning counselors was explored. Particular attention was focused on the trainee's self-understanding throughout the interviews. Three pairs of graduate and underdraguate students participated in this program. The pairs of subjects took on the roles of both counselor and client. The 30-minute interview was repeated five times for each client. In the first 4 sessions, the client explored his or her past life history from birth to the present. The final session was used for the client to integrate his or her life history. For the counselor, the standard questions for each session were prepared. The client rated his or her own level of attainment of the developmental tasks in his or her life. The results showed that the method which focused on a particular period for each session helped the client remember things in that particular period. It was inferred from the subjects' comments on the program that the subject could profoundly understand his or her own past through each session by integrating the important past events into each stage. The behavioral patterns which were found by the client were rated by three judges on the basis of Weinstein-Alschuler's self-knowledge stages. All of the subjects stayed in the situational or pattern stage of the Weinstein-Alschuler stages. The program was discussed in terms of theoretical and methodological implications. Some variants of the model were suggested for future studies.
