DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe purpose of this study was to measure post-secondary students' perceptions of roles and responsibilities of secondary school counselors. The setting for the investigation was a small suburban high school located in south central Pennsylvania. Two qualitative instruments were utilized for data collection: an electronic mail survey (n=62) and a personal interview (n=7). Data from these instruments were compared with indictors set forth by the American School Counselor Association ([ASCA], 2003). This triangulation of data provided reliability and validity for the study. Results indicated that the majority of subjects believe that school counselors performed most academic and career functions addressed in the study. Examples of these tasks include: (a) providing post-secondary information and planning, (b) assisting with course selection, and (c) providing career awareness activities, to name a few. To a much lesser extent, respondents perceived that counselors had performed personal/social functions. Examples of these duties include: (a) teaching problem-solving skills, (b) teaching conflict-resolution skills, and (c) assisting with personal growth and development. Overall, the vast majority of students identified academic, career, and personal/social fucntions as important services for counselors to provide.
