The Impact of CACREP Accreditation: A Multiway Frequency Analysis of Ethics Violations and Sanctions
Even, Trigg A.; Robinson, Chester R.
Journal of Counseling & Development, v91 n1 p26-34 Jan 2013
The impact of CACREP accreditation on counselor competency has received little empirical investigation. Differences in the frequency and type of ethical misconduct between graduates of CACREP-accredited and non-CACREP-accredited counselor education programs were investigated. Results of a multiway frequency analysis indicated that fully licensed graduates of CACREP-accredited programs were sanctioned for ethical misconduct significantly less frequently than were graduates of non-CACREP-accredited programs. Additionally, the accreditation factor was among the highest-ranking parameter estimates of expected cell frequencies. (Contains 3 tables.)
