The impact of school counseling on student educational outcomes in high schools: What can we learn about effectiveness from statewide evaluations of school counseling practice in Nebraska and Utah?

A critical factor in establishing public credibility and trust for a profession is the degree to which rigorous research indicates that the work of the profession has value and worth. Research evidence of this type in school counseling is difficult to find for several reasons. The outcomes of school counseling are somewhat less easily defined and measureable than those of other professions. Few rigorous, large-scale studies of the benefits of school counseling have been conducted, although these studies have typically found that school counseling is very beneficial to students (see Lapan, Gysbers, & Sun, 1997; Sink, Akos, Turnbull & Mvududu, 2008; Sink & Stroh, 2003). Good research is expensive and unfortunately few foundations or federal agencies have been interested in supporting research in school counseling.
