Abstract
This article reports the results of a study in which 102 American Indian 11th and 12th grade high school students rated 7 dimensions of perceived counselor credibility and utility. Results indicated that Indian counselors were perceived as more effective than non‐Indian counselors and that the non‐directive, “facilitative” verbal response style was rated as less effective than either a directive or a cultural/experimental style.Keywords
