Because issues in counseling are often complex, it is difficult for counselors to accurately understand their clients' needs. A counselor's understanding is limited by his or her ability to recognize relevant client variables and comprehend their interactional impact on the client's overall needs (Blocher, 1983). This process is complicated, and requires advanced cognitive complexity.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Because issues in counseling are often complex, it is difficult for counselors to accurately understand their clients' needs. A counselor's understanding is limited by his or her ability to recognize relevant client variables and comprehend their interactional impact on the client's overall needs (Blocher, 1983). This process is complicated, and requires advanced cognitive complexity.
520 $a Counselor cognitive complexity has been linked with multiple aspects of counselor effectiveness (e.g., Borders, 1989; Fong, Borders, Ethington, & Pitts, 1997; Holloway & Wolleat, 1980). In fact, researchers have found support for the assumption that cognitive complexity increases during supervised counseling practice (e.g., Duys & Hedstrom, 2000). To date, however, these results primarily have been based in general measures of a counselor's cognitive complexity, despite evidence that level of complexity is domain specific (Crockett, 1965). Crockett (1965) reported that an individual's level of cognitive complexity can vary from topic to topic. Because of the domain-specific nature of cognitive complexity, a counseling-specific measure of cognitions is needed before researchers can fully understand counselor cognitive development.
520 $a As such, the Counselor Cognitions Questionnaire was developed to fill the void in available instruments. It measures the complexity of counselors' cognitions about their clients. Development of the instrument and initial validation results will be described. Preliminary findings about the impact of general cognitive complexity on client-specific cognitive complexity and factors in counselor cognitive complexity will be explained.
