“…However, any distinctive merits of multiple counseling are still inconclusive in comparison with the more-generally-accepted individual approach. Relatively few experimental studies have reported this comparison as their purpose (Bailey, 1955;Baymur & Patterson, 1960;Bilovsky, et al, 1953;Froehlich, 1958;Hewer, 1959). Hoyt (1955), and Hoyt and Moore (1960) support a belief in the potential of multiple counseling, but indicate the need for further comparisons of the group process with individual counseling in different settings and for various purposes.…”

“…S TUDms attempting to determine the efficacy of group counseling have yielded diverse results depending upon the variables investigated, the subjects counseled, and the procedures utilized. Some (Bilovsky, McMasters, Shorr, & Singer, 1953;Froehlich, 1958;Hoyt, 1955) report group counseling to be of value equal to individual counseling while others (Hewer, 1959;Biersdorf, 1957) report the process to be no better than an absence of treatment. Few have evaluated small group counseling alone and found positive results.…”

One hundred‐eighty college‐bound high school seniors were studied to determine whether small group counseling would affect their anxiety level. 60 students comprised the experimental group and 60 students each the 2 control groups. 6 small group counseling sessions were conducted during the spring just prior to high school graduation and 6 more in the fall, following college enrollment. Comparison of anxiety levels was made at the conclusion of each series of counseling sessions. The students of the experimental group showed significantly lower anxiety scores than did those of the control groups, both in the spring and in the fall. The conclusion was drawn that experience in small group counseling was followed by significantly lower levels of anxiety in transitional adolescents.

“…Froehlich (14) also contrasted multiple counseling and individual counseling, using 42 high-school seniors as subjects, 17 of whom were individually counseled and 25 of whom received multiple counseling. By means of a criterion of increase in accuracy of self-ratings, he found that, in two of three types of statistical comparisons made, multiple counseling produced significant increases, whereas individual counseling failed to do so.…”
