Abstract

This study categorized the responses of 77 undergraduate men to questions of why they would or would not seek career counseling. Common reasons cited for seeking career counseling included receiving advice, obtaining general career assistance, learning about job opportunities and increasing or exploring career options. Common reasons cited for not seeking career counseling included inconvenience/lack of time, preferences to solve problems alone, a lack of need for career-related assistance, and concerns about career counselors' competence. Results are discussed in terms of related literature on men's underutilization of psychological support services and ideas for increasing the appeal of career counseling to a greater range of male help-seekers.
