Counseling Programs' Informed Consent Practices: A Survey of Student Preferences
Pease-Carter, Cheyenne; Minton, Casey A. Barrio
Counselor Education and Supervision, v51 n4 p308-319 Dec 2012
This study examined 115 master's-level counseling students' preferences for content, timing, and method of programmatic informed consent. Students rated the majority of items as moderately or extremely important to receive, and they indicated a desire for the informed consent to be facilitated through a combination of both oral and written methods throughout their programs of study. Results reinforce and go beyond the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (2009) and American Counseling Association (2005) expectations for informed consent. Implications for counselor education are discussed. (Contains 3 tables.)
