Abstract Details

2017, Doctor of Philosophy, University of Toledo, Counselor Education.
Counseling researchers increasingly emphasize researcher and community collaborations (Bryan, 2009; Guiffraida et al., 2011; Ratts el al., 2016). One approach researchers across fields are employing to build researcher-community partnerships is community based-participatory research (CBPR) (National Institute of Health, 2010). CBPR can be described as a shared endeavor between researchers, institutions, and communities that fosters partnerships throughout each phase of the research process (Viswanathan et al, 2004). Given the recent attention to the researcher-practitioner gap in counseling (Guiffraida et al., 2011), this study suggests that the CBPR framework could serve as an additional tool for translating research findings into practical interventions for communities, particularly practitioners (Horowitz et al., 2009). Partnerships between researchers and practitioners will further improve treatment for our clients (Techman et al., 2012). Competencies are significant for the field since they establish best practice, guidelines of service, and professional trainings (Toporek et al., 2010). A standardized approach for a training guideline will improve consistency and reduce disparities in training future counseling researchers (Golde & Walker, 2006). The purpose of this study is to develop a list of competencies (knowledge, skills, attitudes, and actions) that will provide the foundations for a comprehensive competence training guideline in CBPR. This study intends to obtain and integrate expert input in the development of these competencies through the Delphi method using both quantitative descriptive and qualitative content analysis.
