The first national survey of school counselors for deaf children was conducted by Marie Curtis in 1975. She found that deaf students needed counseling services and that existing services were poor to fair in meeting these students' needs. The purpose of the present study was to follow up on Curtis's study by seeking current information on the demography of school counselors as well as the present roles and skills of counselors working with deaf children. Survey respondents indicated that they spent most of their time providing individual and group counseling. A large majority of respondents said their communication skills with students were adequate or better. The three most frequently identified student problems seen were "problems with peer relations," "difficulty with decision making." and "poor self-esteem." Comparisons between the present study and the Curtis study indicate that counselor competence has improved in the intervening years. Specifically, survey respondents in the present study gave themselves much higher ratings in the areas of communication skills, training, and counseling skills.
1975年,玛丽·柯蒂斯开展了首次针对聋儿学校辅导员的全国性调查。她发现聋生需要辅导服务,而现有的服务在满足这些学生需求方面只能说是差强人意。本研究的目的是跟进柯蒂斯的研究,了解学校辅导员的最新人口统计学信息以及当前与聋儿打交道的辅导员的角色和技能。调查对象表示,他们大部分时间都在提供个别辅导和团体辅导。绝大多数受访者称,他们与学生的沟通能力足够或更好。最常被提及的学生问题有“同伴关系问题”“决策困难”和“自尊心低落”。本研究与柯蒂斯研究的对比表明,在这期间辅导员的能力有所提高。具体而言,本研究中的调查对象在沟通技巧、培训和辅导技能方面给自己的评分要高得多。
