Young, J. Scott; Wiggins-Frame, Marsha; Cashwell, Craig S.
Journal of Counseling & Development, v85 n1 p47-52 Win 2007
A random sample of 505 American Counseling Association (ACA) members completed a questionnaire that evaluated respondents' ratings of the importance of 9 competencies developed at the Summit on Spirituality (G. Miller, 1999; "Summit Results," 1995) meetings to effectively address spiritual and religious issues in counseling practice. Results suggest that, in general, ACA members strongly support the importance of the competencies for effective counseling practice.
