“…Quality and type of supervision have been linked to counselling self-efficacy with extensive literature on the supervisory working alliance (e.g. Marmarosh et al , 2013; Mehr et al , 2015; Tsai, 2016; Williams, 2017); a stronger alliance predicts higher self-efficacy. Task-oriented supervision style (structured, goal-oriented and evaluative) has been linked to higher counselling self-efficacy (Fernando and Hulse-Killacky, 2005) as has “live” supervision (Durham, 2003) among substance abuse counsellors in the US navy, particularly in the domain of intervention skills.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a professional self-efficacy scale for counsellors and psychologists encompassing identified competencies within professional standards from national and related international frameworks for psychologists and counsellors. Design/methodology/approach An initial opportune sample of postgraduate psychology and counselling students (n=199) completed a ten-minute self-report survey. A subsequent independent sample (n=213) was recruited for cross-validation. Findings A series of exploratory analyses, consolidated through confirmatory factor analyses and Rasch analysis, identified a well-functioning scale composed of 31 items and five factors (research, ethics, legal matters, assessment and measurement, intervention). Originality/value The Psychologist and Counsellor Self-Efficacy Scale (PCES) appears a promising measure, with potential applications for reflective learning and practice, clinical supervision and professional development, and research studies involving psychologists’ and counsellors’ self-perceived competencies. It is unique in being ecologically grounded in national competency frameworks, and extending previous work on self-efficacy for particular competencies to the set of specified attributes outlined in Australian national competency documents. The PCES has potential utility in a variety of applications, including research about training efficacy and clinical supervision, and could be used as one component of a multi-method approach to formative and summative competence assessment for psychologists and counsellors. The scale may be used to assess students’ perceived competencies relative to actual competency growth against national standards, and to identify trainees’ and practitioners’ self-perceived knowledge deficits and target areas for additional training.

“…There was no significant difference found in the other sub-dimensions and total scores of counseling self-efficacy. Tsai (2015) found in his study that gender was not significantly related to counseling self-efficacy. Similarly, Öztürk (2014) concluded that the gender of psychological counseling candidates did not significantly differentiate their levels of counseling self-efficacy.…”

This research investigates the relationship between students' attitudes towards providing psychological counseling help, counseling self-efficacy, and personality traits. The study focuses on 4th-grade education students in the Department of Psychological Counseling and Guidance during the 2020-2021 academic year. A total of 481 participants, including 380 girls and 101 boys, completed surveys online, including a Personal Information Form, an Attitude Scale Towards Giving Psychological Counseling Help, a Psychological Counseling Self-Efficacy Scale, and The Adjective-Based Personality Scale. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 23.00, encompassing Pearson correlation, independent sample t-tests, and stepwise regression. The findings reveal significant connections between the positive and behavioral dimensions of attitudes towards giving counseling help and all personality sub-dimensions. The negative dimension is only linked to conscientiousness. In summary, this study provides valuable insights into the relationships among personality, counseling self-efficacy, and attitudes towards providing counseling help.

“…Mindfulness can promote CSE by enhancing the ability to remain present and self‐aware (Campbell & Christopher, 2012; Fulton & Cashwell, 2015). This is because counseling students with higher mindfulness are constructivist agents who may more effectively use self‐regulation and feedback to reduce the negative impact of stress and anxiety on CSE (Daniels & Larson, 2001; Tsai, 2015). In other words, enhanced mindfulness can help counseling students to set attainable goals, to view stress as challenging (rather than debilitating), and to engage in self‐aiding thoughts as they learn to become professional counselors.…”

The authors explored how mindfulness influenced the relationship between perceived stress and counseling self‐efficacy (CSE) among 187 counseling students. Results suggest mindfulness mediated the relationship, diminishing the negative impact of stress on CSE. Implications address how counselor educators can promote mindfulness as an avenue to enhance counselor development by increasing CSE and reducing stress in counseling students.
