A Study to Determine the Effects of Facilitating Conditions and Action-Oriented Techniques in Cross-Cultural Counseling

The purpose of this study was to examine the preferences of subjects from three cultural groups for high and low facilitative and action-oriented counseling techniques. The study was conducted at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign during the Fall term of 1981. A total of 66 students volunteered to participate. Twenty-four were black, twenty-four were white, and eighteen were Mexican American. All of the students except the whites were randomly selected from the Educational Opportunity Program at the university. White students who volunteered were drawn from two undergraduate Educational Psychology classes and one dormitory. All participants, however, were undergraduates with less than 15 earned semester hours.
