Peer Counseling Programs For Hearing Impaired Persons, Michael Strong, Carol Day-Drummer

JADARA

Peer counselors and program directors from eight agencies in Northern and Southern California were interviewed in order to determine how their programs differed from other services for

hearing impaired persons, and how these programs compared with peer counseling programs in other settings. It was concluded that peer counselors provide a unique service by meeting a wide variety of needs in a supportive setting characterized by a shared background with the client. It was also apparent that the programs surveyed here had some features that were startlingly unlike peer counseling programs in other settings while in other ways they were similar. …

Principles Of Group Counseling And Their Applications For Deaf Clients, Margery Silberman Miller, Donald F. Moores

JADARA

According to a model developed by Cavanagh (1982), counseling may be perceived as a unique relationship by which the counselor helps others learn to relate to themselves and others in growth producing ways. The effective counselor fosters growth by creating an environment and a relationship that is significantly different from any presently experienced by the client or clients. Underlying principles and goals of individual and group counseling are identified and discussed. One goal of counseling is to help individuals understand that most of their difficulties emanate from within themselves and not from external circumstances. The basic purposes of a therapeutic …

An Empirical Demonstration Of The Case-Management Approach To Rehabilitation Of Multiply Sensorially Disabled Clients, Joel D. Ziev, Pearl I. Johnson, Jerome D. Schein, David Peikoff

JADARA

In one year, five Case Managers provided a wide range of rehabilitation services directly to 133 multiply sensorially disabled clients (the target group) and indirectly to 212 other target clients. The Case Managers encouraged 70 agencies to become interested in, and in some cases to initiate services to, target clients. In addition to providing a considerable amount of direct services, the project staff laid the foundation for continuing improvement in target clients' welfare, by disseminating knowledge other service providers and encouraging them to raise their expectations of rehabilitation outcomes for the target group. Although long-term benefits cannot be assessed in …

Deafness Mental Health Needs Assessment: A Model, Peter C. Myers, Marita M. Danek

JADARA

The success of any new program often depends on an accurate needs assessment of the population to be served. Program planning is particularly difficult for low incidence disabilities, such as deafness. This paper presents a model to assist practitioners in community mental health program planning for deaf adults. The model is applied to a large metropolitan community in the southwestern part of the United States. Several issues emerge as a result of applying this model and we make recommendations for more effective mental health service provision based on these issues.

Pre-Commitment To Moral Values, Nicholas R. Herzog, Justin F. Landy, Emma E. Levine

Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches and Lectures

When faced with reoccurring tradeoffs between moral values, people can address them by considering the specifics of each case or by setting policies that predetermine how they will address similar cases. Previous research on moral judgment has often focused on isolated tradeoffs, and therefore, it is unclear which decision strategies are preferred in contexts with reoccurring tradeoffs. Across our studies, participants judged people who precommitted to always prioritizing one value more positively than people who adjusted their priorities based on the specifics of each case. Our findings have important implications for understanding public perceptions of complex policies.

The Social Consequences Of Absolute Moral Proclamations, Elizabeth Huppert, Nicholas R. Herzog, Justin F. Landy, Emma E. Levine

Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches and Lectures

Across six studies (N = 3348), we find that people prefer targets who make absolute proclamations (i.e. "It is never okay for people to lie" ) over targets who make ambiguous proclamations ("It is sometimes okay for people to lie" ), even when both targets tell equivalent lies. Preferences for absolutism stem from the belief that moral proclamations send a true signal about moral character--they are not cheap talk. Therefore, absolute proclamations signal moral character, despite also signaling hypocrisy. This research sheds light on the consequences of absolute proclamations and identifies circumstances in which hypocrisy is preferred over consistency.
