Abstract
Objective The Counseling Competencies Scale – Revised (CCS-R) measures counselor trainees’ therapeutic skills and dispositions and is a tool for counseling outcome research and evaluation. Prior research on the CCS-R has focused on supervisors’ ratings of counselors’ competencies. Our study evaluated the factor structure of CCS-R scores based on the counselors’ self-reports. Method The present study utilized confirmatory factor analysis to test if the factor structure of the CCS-R fits using self-reported scores on the measure. Results The data (N = 998) produced a good fit with the factor structure of the CCS-R. Conclusions The results demonstrated that the CCS-R model from prior research is consistent when the scale is used as a self-report measure. The results demonstrated evidence of construct validity when applying CCS-R as a supervisee self-report tool. Future research can look for additional ways to demonstrate the construct validity of the CCS-R across different supervisee groups.
