The effectiveness of a realistic counselling programme to develop taking-responsibility among hearing-impaired students
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aimed at identifying the effectiveness of a realistic counselling programme for developing taking responsibility among a sample of hearing-impaired students. The sample consisted of 26 hearing-impaired students. To verify the effectiveness of the programme, the participants were randomised equally into two groups: the experimental group 13 male and female students who underwent the realistic programme and 13 students within the control group who were not subjected to the counselling programme. The researchers developed a valid and reliable scale to measure taking responsibility to achieve the purposes of this study. The findings indicated that the level of taking responsibility for the hearing-impaired students expected to graduate from the Jordanian universities was moderate, and there were significant differences between the post-test performance mean scores of the participants in the experimental and control groups in taking responsibility in favour of the experimental group due to the counselling programme.
