| Abstract: | 60 male college students were divided into 3 groups: 20 received vocational counseling individually, 20 received counseling in groups, 20 received no counseling. All Ss indicated their tentative vocational choices, how certain they were of them, and how satisfied they were with them both before and after the experimental period. With original scores held constant, both group and individual counsellees were significantly more certain of their choices, more satisfied with them, and probably more realistic in them than the controls. "The time-saving quality of the group program, together with its demonstrated effectiveness, argues for the institution of group programs in vocational guidance."
