Abstract
Fifty-two male and sixty-three female students answered a counselor preference questionnaire. Based on the relative importance of the counselor gender preference, 92 of the 115 subjects listened to one of four audio tapes of counseling sessions. The tapes varied the sex of the counselor and the response styles of counselor behavior (reflective or directive styles). The results of the preference questionnaire indicated (a) the total sample and the female subjects most preferred the amount of counseling experience, (b) the male portion of the sample most preferred the age of the counselor, and (c) the modal response for counselor gender preference was “no preference”, and the modal responses of those who preferred the gender of the counselor was the same sex as the respondents. The analysis of the ratings of counselor behavior across counselor style and sex preference variables revealed (a) no differences in the rating of counselor stated sex preferences to no stated sex preferences, (b) significant differences between the two counselor style variables and (c) the active counselor was rated higher than the reflective counselor on the expertness measure of the Counseling Rating form and Overall Performance rating.
