很少有研究从非洲裔美国人客户的角度来考察他们在咨询中的主观体验。本研究采用建构主义范式、扎根理论方法论和维度分析方法，构建了来访者在心理咨询中的主观体验模型。从客户的角度出发，该模型表明，参与这项研究的非裔美国人参与了一个持续的评估过程。最初，他们评估了客户-治疗师匹配，这受到3个因素的影响：黑人身份的突出度，法庭介入，以及客户和治疗师之间的意识形态相似性。然后，这些客户同时评估他们在治疗中的安全性和他们的顾问的有效性。反过来，客户使用从他们的评估过程中获得的信息来监控和管理他们的自我披露程度。该模型对今后的研究具有重要意义。
Few studies have examined African American clients' subjective experiences in counseling from their perspective. This study used a constructivist paradigm, grounded theory methodology, and dimensional analysis to develop a model of clients' subjective experiences in counseling. Derived from clients' perspectives, the model suggests that the African American participants in this study engaged in an ongoing assessing process. Initially, they assessed client-therapist match, which was influenced by 3 factors: salience of Black identity, court involvement, and ideology similarity between client and therapist. These clients then assessed their safety in therapy and their counselor's effectiveness simultaneously. Clients in turn used information obtained from their assessing process to monitor and manage their degree of self-disclosing along a continuum. The model has important implications for future research.
