“…Eisdorfer and Batton (1972) surveyed public health nurses who had received consultation and constructed descriptions of successful and unsuccessful consultant characteristics. Norman and Forti (1972) and Mannino (1972) matched reports of both consultants and consultees on activities in the consultation process with ratings of the success of consultation. These studies provide an opportunity to examine more details of the consultation process as it is seen by its immediate consumers.…”

“…Data on the practicum portion of the program were collected by participants throughout their consultations using two instruments adapted from earlier studies: 1) a “Consultation Activity Check List” (Mannino, 1972), and 2) a “Consultation Data Sheet” (Norman & Forti, 1972). Participants used the Activity Check List to keep records of the focus and content of consultant interventions (i.e., case or program) as well as the method by which interventions were initiated and resolved in each consultation contact.…”

“…Despite the rationale and feasibility of consultation (Caplan, 1969;Caplan, 1970;Mannino, 1972;Norman & Forti, 1972), few publications describe its potential benefits to the administrators, staff, and residents of community care facilities (Peterson, 1979). The purpose of this paper is to give a brief description of the didactic portion of a program designed to train mental health professionals in consultation to community care facilities and to present a detailed evaluation of the practicum portion of that course.…”

A continuing education course designed to train mental health professionals in the principles and practice of consultation to community care facilities is presented as a model for education in urban communitybased services. A brief evaluation of the course in terms of knowledge gained by participants during the didactic instruction is included along with a detailed description of the content, process, and resolution of interventions during the supervised consultation practicum. The neglect of community care facilities as an important service partner in the continuum of care for the chronically mentally ill is addressed through the training and placement of mental health professionals as community care consultants.

“…Le premier objectif specifique de cette etude est de construire et d'etablir la validite de contenu de l'echelle d'attentes de consultation. La recension des echelles de mesure existant en consultation montre que seulement quelques-unes d'entre elles sont quelque peu liees au concept d'attente de consultation telles The Consultation Preference Scale (Babcock & Pryzwansky, 1983) et The Consultant Activity Check List (Norman & Forti, 1972).…”

The purpose of this study was to establish the reliability and construct validity of the Consultation Expectations Scale for caregivers of elderly persons on the basis of Gerald Caplan's mental health consultation model. The reliability was determined by the Cronbach alpha coefficient ranging from .89 to .95 and the item-total correlation varying between .63 and .75. The content validity was demonstrated by an intra-class coefficient of .92 on all items evaluated by the judges. The internal consistency was determined by the correlations between the global scale and the subscales ranging from .67 to .91. The convergent validity relied on the positive and moderate correlations between the consultation expectations on the one hand and the need for support and psychological distress on the other. This scale demonstrated good psychometric qualities. Its utilisation should permit the consultants to keep the caregivers' point of view in mind, which will enable them to become more effective in their work.
