Most schools staff counselors who can attend to these children in a time of need through death of a family member or even a traumatic experience in the school. Counselors deal with students who can handle students with behavioral problems or who will just sit and listen to a student going through a tough divorce in the family. Students with emotional and behavioral problems tend to not do so well academically.

...Effects of the Distributed-Counseling Model in 7th Grade Hispanic Middle School Students’ Self-Efficacy Skills and Motivation \ Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of the distributed counseling model on twenty-four 7th grade Hispanic middle school students’ self-efficacy skills and motivation. This study focuses on measuring the various skills that Hispanic middle school children need to be successful at both the high school and collegiate level through the use of a self-efficacy and motivation instrument. In determining the effects of the distributed counseling model one can identify the effectiveness of this model in aiding with student success amongst Hispanic adolescents. It is noted that self-efficacy, amount of intrinsic as opposed to extrinsic motivation an individual possesses, and overall self-management skills are strong predictors of student success. Introduction Alonso-Zaldivar and Tompson (2010) found that Hispanics are at a point where, “Eighty-seven percent said a college education is extremely or very important, compared with 78% of the overall U.S. population.” However, “Census figures show that only 13% of Hispanics have a college degree or higher, compared with 30% among Americans overall.” This figure alone is astonishing in the sense that Hispanics understand the importance of an education, yet somehow seem to get caught up in the process of actually motivating and self-regulating themselves to achieve these educational...

...CNED 602 Counseling Theories 9 October 2012 SUMMARY In the article Does Psychotherapy Help Some Students, Eder and Whitson (2006) provided an overview of 75 studies of outcome research on the effects of psychotherapy on children. Eder and Whitson (2006) discussed the dilemma of students unable to learn because of emotional or behavioral issues while “No Child Left Behind {is} requiring that all children succeed academically” (Eder and Whitson, 2006, pp. 337). While the American School Counselor Association National Model lists the responsibilities of a school counselor as “promoting the academic, career, and personal/social development of all students,” a study reviewed in this article indicated 17% to 22% of school-age youth have developmental, emotional, or behavioral issues (Eder and Whitson, 2006, pp. 337). The authors’ intent was to research the effectiveness of psychotherapeutic interventions on adolescents and youth to determine, for school counselors and school administration, if school counselors should increase these types of interventions in a school setting or refer more students for appropriate treatment. The compilation of data from the research outcome studies typically used a control group and a treatment group of children ranging in age between 3 and 15 years old with a wide range of clinical issues. Eder and Whitson (2006) detailed the multiples studies areas of positive and negative effects with emphasis on client factors, counselor...

Green The Chicago School of Professional Psychology Evidence-Based Counseling 2 Abstract Parental divorce has become increasingly common for large numbers of families in schools (Lamden, King, & Goldman, 2002).
