I would greatly appreciate your help. Below is the student invitation to participate in the study. Please forward this invitation to the practicum coordinator and/or students taking practicum this semester. This research project has obtained permission to gain access to the NCRE membership for purposes of furthering the mission of the association. Thank you, Dawn Lorenz _________________ Dear Student: You are part of a small group of people who have been asked to participate in a research study that explores how clinical supervision influences the development of counseling self-efficacy for counselors- in-training. Very little research exists that explores the impact of clinical supervision on counselor self-efficacy. Your responses to the questionnaires will lead to a better understanding of supervision and its relationship to counselors and their development. A better understanding of this will eventually contribute to better training for supervisors and counselors that will lead to better client outcomes. Participation in this study will take approximately 15 minutes at three different intervals. You will be asked to complete an online survey at the beginning, middle, and end of the semester in which you are enrolled in practicum. The questions will focus on your relationship and perception of your current supervisor and your confidence in your own counseling ability. In order to participate, please go https://www.psychdata.com/s.asp?SID=127651 and enter password CSIC09. Survey instructions will be provided on the website. Confidentiality will be maintained to the extent permitted by the website. Every attempt will be made to protect third party access. The data is encrypted as soon as it is submitted and is immediately stored on the PsychData website. If you do not have access to the Internet or prefer to complete a paper copy of the survey, please contact me at the telephone number or e-mail address listed below. Please note that this study as been approved by the Office for Research Protections at Penn State University as well as the Research Committee of the National Council on Rehabilitation Education. Participation in this study is voluntary. Participants who participate in all three parts of the study are eligible for entry into a drawing for a $100 Visa Gift Card. One winner per 25 participants will be selected. If you have questions about this study please contact me at dcb232 at psu.edu or by telephone at (814) 441-9511.
