Differential use by male and female students of the Counselling Service of an Australian tertiary college: Implications for service design and counselling models

Abstract

In conclusion, the operation of systematic data gathering procedure in the RMIT Counselling Service has provided a body of data from a number of years, enabling analysis of sex differentials in utilization of the Service. Some differentials have been indicated and further lines of research suggested to ensure that the advertising strategies and counselling models employed by the Service are better matched to the gender characteristics of its client population.
