| Abstract: | Conducted a longitudinal study of 100 college students who had sought counseling and 100 who had not, 7 yrs subsequent to an earlier study and 4 yrs after graduation (or the time when graduation would have been expected). Results indicate that several differences between the 2 groups in the original study were largely attenuated with the passage of time. Ss who had sought counseling had significantly improved their former status on several measures. Implications are made concerning both student development research and the impact of counseling.
