Significant Difference

An examination of differences in perceptions of self-efficacy between students in CORE-accredited rehabilitation counseling programs and students in CACREP -accredited clinical mental health counseling programs enrolled in practicum/internship classes is absent in the literature. Results indicated there was not a significant difference (p = .05) between the total self-efficacy scores between both treatment groups (CORE and CACREP). Further, there was not a significant difference between helping skills, session management, and counseling challenging situations scores for both treatment groups (CORE and CACREP). Predictors of self-efficacy for CACREP participants consisted of prior work experience in a field other than helping. Predictors of self-efficacy for CORE participants were gender.

Study Results

Higher education and research for socioeconomic development are well recognized in developed and developing countries. Studies have shown that a high participation rate in higher education with a high share of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education is critical for competitiveness in the global market. Nepal would not fulfill people’s aspirations for prosperity by perpetuating the status quo scenario of the education system. This study aimed at exploring and assessing the factors influencing science and technology education in Nepal and tried to assess the current status of science education and critically examine the factors affecting the development of science education in Nepal. The study used both primary and secondary data. The primary source of data is from interviews, observations, focused group discussions, and semistructured questionnaires. Secondary data were collected from National Examination Board, universities, colleges, and campuses. The study found a decreasing trend of student enrollment in science and technology (S&T) education in Nepal. In addition, the results revealed a decreasing trend of women students, so it should be taken as a matter of concern. Some key bottlenecks identified were insufficient and broken physical infrastructures (classrooms, laboratories, and libraries); inadequate and incapable human resources; and improper management practices. However, the study results show positive perceptions of society towards S&T education in Nepal. The study recommends developing modern infrastructures, building human resources, and improving management practices for better S&T education.

Introductory Course

The number and level of psychiatric counseling training programs in 47 CORE-accredited programs across the country was examined in this study. Approximately 85% of the programs surveyed thought that graduates should provide information to consumers about the psychiatric rehabilitation process. With respect to an introductory course in psychiatric rehabilitation, sample results indicated that 40% programs offered a course, 36% offered related partial course content, and 19% offered no course or content at all. Results of studies indicate a need for more psychiatric counseling content. Suggestions are given to enable the inclusion of psychiatric rehabilitation content into existing rehabilitation counseling programs.
