“…A script is a story that is intended to achieve some form of narrative sense, and therefore it is necessary that the story occurs in a certain sequence. Each person is a role player (Honderich & Heyward, 2019). Generally, 'the greater the number of roles in our repertoire, the better able we are to meet our needs and function successfully, as long as we are able to utilize the roles effectively' (Baim, Brookes, & Mountfors, 2002, p. 20, para.…”

Everyone encounters challenges and hardships. Some problems are easily handled, while others may never be resolved, causing serious issues later in life. Therapeutic healing in psychology refers to achieving relief or cure through specific psychological processes. Some therapies used to deal with unresolved issues and managing setbacks centre around experience-sharing in group settings. Therapeutic healing does not happen randomly. There are recognizable stages in the process of integrating experiences and gaining insights from group therapy. This study explored the stages in the therapeutic process of the mirror effect as experienced by students who observed group therapy in a group counselling class. Thirty registered social workers, each of whom had taken the counselling course, voluntarily participated in a semi-structured interview. Thematic analysis was used to identify and analyse themes within the qualitative data. Results showed that students who observed group therapy experienced the therapeutic impacts of the mirror effect, helping them understand how the effect works. Students reported undergoing five-stages in the process: exploration, retrospection, imagination, reconversion, and significance. The research confirmed that mirror effects take place during counselling education, and students may experience self-healing through the witnessing of the counselling process, giving them direct experience with a technique they can use for others. The implications are that observers of group therapy experience mutuality in the healing experience. This phenomenon has never been thoroughly examined, and our work suggests future studies involving student observers may provide insights into healing processes and benefits of experience-based education for counsellors.

Undergraduate students showed an increase in moral reasoning (DIT) after a semester-long course covering topics of advertising ethics, completing a new advertising ethics training program (CEAE), and engaging in activities that allowed for reflection. Students placed more importance on postconventional stages of moral reasoning over personal interest despite the suggestion that emerging adults are self-focused. Students agreed or strongly agreed that studying ethics is important to developing moral awareness and moral reasoning and found the professional training relevant to their critical thinking skills and moral awareness. Advertising education should continue to use reflection and role-taking activities and consider incorporating professional training and future research should continue to explore the role of moral motivation in moral reasoning.
