Counselor education doctoral students' levels of Research Self-Efficacy, Interest in Research, and Research Mentoring: A cross-sectional investigation
- Date Issued:
- 2012
- Abstract/Description:
- ABSTRACTDoctoral counselor education programs are charged to develop effective researchers; however, limited investigations have examined research constructs in counselor educators-in-training. Therefore, this study will investigate a national sample of doctoral counselor education students' levels of research self-efficacy (Research Self-Efficacy Scale; Greeley, et. al 1989), interest in research (Interest in Research Questionnaire; Bishop (&) Bieschke, 1994), and research mentoring (Research Mentoring Experiences Scale; Hollingsworth (&) Fassinger, 2002). A cross-sectional, correlational research design will be used to test if doctoral counselor education students' year of preparation (1st, 2nd, or 3rd year) predicts their research self-efficacy, interest in research, and research mentoring scores. In addition, the study will investigate if doctoral students' research practices, (e.g., publishing refereed journal articles, presenting papers at national conferences) correlates with their levels of the three research constructs. Limitations and implications for the study will be discussed.
