Demir, Ilkay; Gazioglu, Esra Ismen
Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, v50 n1-2 p116-130 2017
The first aim of this study was to explore the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Theoretical Orientation Profile Scale-Revised, and the second aim was to understand the relative influence of personal and professional variables on the choice of a guiding theoretical orientation among Turkish counselor trainees. Results showed that in Turkey the preference for a particular theoretical orientation is associated strongly with professional variables, rather than personality.
