Abstract

This article presents a study of the extent to which group counseling enhanced the self-concept of congenitally visually impaired adolescents. The researchers developed a training method using group procedures to help visually impaired teenagers cultivate a well-rounded self-concept. Group sessions focused on such topics as self-perception, assertiveness, friendship, familial relationships, and independent living skills. Pretreatment posttreatment evaluations revealed that the experimental group members’ self-concept, attitudes toward blindness, and internality improved significantly because of group counseling.
