摘要

本研究以1998年至2004年選修「諮商理論與技術」課程的248名大學生爲問卷調查樣本。受試在課程結束之前，自選至少碩士層級之諮商師，接受至少一小時的心理諮商，並填寫研究者自編問卷一份。問卷內容包括：諮商師任職機構、晤談時間、是否說明基本架構、諮商費、總結受輔經驗、總結受輔效果、是否會再去諮商、是否會推薦受輔作業、從預約到諮商的等候天數、晤談次數，以及受試的基本資料等。受試選擇受輔的機構包括：大學學輔中心(50.4%)、大學健康中心(21.0%)，以及社區諮商機構(26.6%)。主要研究結果：1.七成五受試的心理諮商經驗是正面的，兩成是正負參半的，九成受試認爲心理諮商是有幫助的，有八成的受試將來會繼續求助心理諮商師，有九成的受試會推薦這項受輔作業；2.社區諮商機構比學校諮商機構每次提供的諮商時間會久一點、等候諮商的天數會短一點，以及個案的晤談次數會少一點；3.三組諮商機構的受試對於受輔經驗的評價並沒有顯著的差異。最後並討論研究結果的含意，以及對心理諮商師教育提出建議。

The purpose of the study was to investigate the personal therapy experience of 248 counseling major and minor students who attended the class of Theories and practices of counseling taught by the researcher between 1998 and 2004. The subjects were required by the course to have a personal therapy at least one hour from a qualified counselor at their own choice. About half (50.4%) of the subjects went to a university counseling center for personal therapy, 21.0% went to a university health center, and 26.6% went to community counseling services. They were instructed to complete a questionnaire before the end of the semester. The questionnaire items included basic information about the counselor and the subject, length of each counseling session, counseling structure, fee, personal view on the counseling outcomes, willingness to return for future counseling, willingness to recommend personal counseling to future students, days elapsed before seen by the counselor, and total number of counseling sessions.
The main findings were summarized as follows: 1. About three quarters (73.4%) of the subjects received personal counseling with a session lasted from 50 to 60 minute; 2. About half (48.8%) of the subjects were not provided information regarding counseling structure; 3. About three quarters (76.2%) of the subjects viewed their personal therapy as a positive experience while 18.5% had mixed views; 4. Among the subjects, 29.0% viewed their personal therapy experiences most helpful and 60.5% some helpful; 5. Majority (84.7%) of the subjects would return for future counseling as needed; 6. Great majority (93.1%) of the subjects recommended personal therapy to future students in counseling program; 7. About half (48.0%) of the subjects were seen by a counselor within 7 days, 29.0% within 14 days, and 22.2% more than 14 days. Implications and future suggestions of the study were also discussed.
