A Dilemma Within Doctoral Supervision: Applying an Ethical Decision‐Making Model

Nancy Chae, David R. Gosling, Jeremy R. Goshorn, Shuhui Fan — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

This article is based on the second place–winning submission to the 2019 American Counseling Association Graduate Student Ethics Competition for Doctoral Degree Students. The fictional ethical dilemma presents three perspectives within doctoral supervision (i.e., a doctoral supervisor, supervisees, and faculty supervisor) related to grappling with master's-level school counseling supervisees. A selected ethical decision-making model is used to delineate the problems and dimensions of the dilemma and offer courses of action in response to the ethical dilemma. Implications for counselors, supervisors, and counselor educators are discussed.

Discerning Student Depression: Religious Coping and Social Support Mediating Attachment

Julia F. Klausli, Carrie Caudill — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

We assessed pathways linking attachment and depression in college students (N = 190) to investigate the interplay of mediators, namely, social support and simultaneous engagement in positive and negative religious coping. Moderated serial mediation models revealed directions in which attachment predicted perceptions of social support, which then predicted negative religious coping and depression. Positive religious coping partially buffered detrimental effects of negative religious coping but could not completely offset the link to depression. Counselor implications are identified.

Sacred Space: Student Supervisees' Experiences of Spiritual Issues

Christine D. Gonzales‐Wong, Janeé R. Avent Harris — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

In this phenomenological study, we explored student supervisees’ experiences of spiritual issues during practicum. Six participants from programs accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs completed a demographic questionnaire and a semistructured interview. Participants reported experiences of internal tension due to spiritual issues and expressed hesitation in discussing spiritual issues with supervisors, prior to seeking resolution through reflecting on their counselor training, engaging in discussion with their supervisor depending on the comfort level in the relationship, and seeking outside support. Recommendations for counselor educators and supervisors are provided.

Understanding Conflict Between Religious/Spiritual and Queer Identities: A Framework for Counselors

Thomas Killian, Kimery R. Levering, Lainey J. Brottem — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

All individuals possess multiple intersecting identities, both contextually determined and at various stages of development. Contradictory or incompatible societal expectations attached to differing identities may cause internal conflict. Simultaneous navigation of queer and religious/spiritual identities may result in experiencing lack of affirmation and negative messaging, affecting successful negotiation and integration of these two identities, potentially affecting mental health. Awareness of this potential intersectional conflict is important for counselors treating these individuals. Here we present counselors with a framework for understanding intersecting identities by applying self-categorization theory and exploring the continued influence effect.

The Ethics of Psychological Artificial Intelligence: Clinical Considerations

Russell Fulmer, Tonya Davis, Cori Costello, Angela Joerin — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

Psychological artificial intelligence has a growing research base but often overlooks ethical considerations. Drawing from a review of the literature, the experiences of three counselor educators, and an industry insider, this article names six issues relevant to psychological artificial intelligence. The clinical implications of each issue are discussed, some at the national level, some at the practice level. Suggestions for the counseling profession, with an emphasis on prevention, are offered.

Counseling and Values Metastudy: An Analysis of Publication Characteristics From 2000 to 2019

Candice Alder, Candice Yu, Gerta Bardhoshi, Bradley T. Erford — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

Articles published in Counseling and Values: Spirituality, Ethics, and Religion in Counseling (CVJ) from 2000 to 2019 were analyzed for trends over time related to author characteristics and article content. Women now (2015–2019) compose more than two thirds of lead authors, about 90% of first and all authors are primarily affiliated with universities, and 12% of first authors from 2015 to 2019 are domiciled internationally. CVJ significantly increased the proportion of research publications while maintaining consistent proportions across all coded research variables. Only about 10% of articles focused on ethics, whereas 28% focused on spiritual and religious topics.

Virtues as Correlates and Predictors of Posttraumatic Stress and Growth

Melissa Zeligman, Elizabeth K. Norris, Jamian Coleman, Andrew W. Wood — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

We examined the virtues of optimism, hope, and gratitude as potential correlates and predictors of posttraumatic stress (PTS) and posttraumatic growth (PTG) in a sample of trauma survivors (N = 151). Results indicated that each of these qualities significantly correlated with PTS and PTG. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that optimism, hope, and gratitude each significantly predicted PTS, with hope being the greatest predictor of PTG. Clinical implications for professional counselors are discussed.
