Multicultural Training Experiences as Predictors of Multicultural Competencies: Students' Perspectives
Dickson, Ginger L.; Jepsen, David A.
Counselor Education and Supervision, v47 n2 p76-95 Dec 2007
The authors surveyed a national sample of master's-level counseling students regarding their multicultural training experiences and their multicultural counseling competencies. A series of hierarchical regression models tested the prediction of inventoried competencies from measures of selected training experiences: (a) program cultural ambience or learning environment, (b) multicultural instructional strategies, and (c) multicultural clinical experiences. Perceptions of program cultural ambience or learning environment predicted all multicultural competencies: knowledge, skills, awareness, and relationship. Additional findings support the importance of clinical training experiences in the context of effective multicultural training.
