β¦ Synopsis
The authors completed an exploratory factor analysis of the scores of 248 counselorsβinβtraining on the Counselor Skills Personal Development Rating Form (CSPDβRF; M. B. Wilbur, 1991). Participants' counseling program was accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs at a midsize western university. The authors of the CSPDβRF hypothesized that the CSPDβRF measured 2 factors: (a) personal development and (b) skills development. Factor analysis yielded 4 factors (Emotional Sensitivity, Basic Listening Skills, Multicultural Skills, and Influencing Skills), accounting for 58.4% of the total variance, thus providing some support for the construct validity of the CSPDβRF.
