本研究旨在探讨谘商师的立场一致性对来访者知觉谘商师共情程度的影响。具体来说,它试图确定是否是镜像一致的手臂和腿的位置的客户端的顾问将显着增加客户端的感知水平的共情的水平的顾问的感知时,顾问没有镜像一致的手臂和腿的位置。80名青少年单独与顾问会面15分钟,讨论职业规划。本研究控制了三个变量:辅导员的直接身体取向、辅导员头部的位置和辅导员言语反应的移情水平。因变量为Barrett-Lennard关系量表的共情分量表。在2 × 2 × 2方差分析的结果,如预测的那样,客户会评价咨询师有一个显着更大的共情水平在一致的条件下比在不一致的条件。最后讨论本研究在辅导员培训中的应用,并提出未来研究的建议。
This study investigated the effects of counselor postural congruence on client perception of the counselor's level of empathy. Specifically, it sought to determine whether a counselor who was mirror imaging a congruent arm and leg position of a client would significantly increase the client's perception of the counselor's level of empathy over the level of the client's perception when the counselor did not mirror image congruent arm and leg position. Eighty adolescents met individually with a counselor for 15 minutes to discuss career plans. Three variables were controlled for in this investigation: counselor's direct body orientation, position of counselor's head, and the empathy level of the counselor's verbal responses. The dependent variable was the Empathy subscale of the Barrett-Lennard Relationship Inventory. In a 2 X 2 X 2 analysis of variance the results were, as predicted, that the clients would rate the counselor as having a significantly greater level of empathy in the congruent condition than in the noncongruent condition. Application to counselor training and suggestions for further research are discussed.
