| Summary: | This research identifies the student-helper factors related to help-seeking behavior of Taiwanese adolescents. The subjects were 280 high school male students from Taiwan in the Republic of China. They were selected through random sampling. Instruments used in this study were the (1) Students' Needs Inventory, (2) Pasao Self-Concept Rating Scale, and (3) Questionnaire on Help-Seeking Behavior. The results of the study showed that the most prevalent problem/need of the students was academic. The result also showed that most students chose to solve their problems by themselves. The most preferred helper was the teacher while the most preferred quality of a helper was on having concern for others. The most preferred age of the helper was between 21-30 years old. The preferred educational attainment was a college degree. A significant relationship was found between help-seeking behavior and helpers' qualities, age, and education. It was concluded that help-seeking behavior was a function of the helper rather than that of the student factor. It is recommended that the significant helper factors be considered in the selection of the counselor for adolescent counselees. |
