Title: Statistics and economics of educational counselling in one university
Author: Wankowski, Janek
Appeared in: British journal of guidance & counselling
Paging: Volume 7 (1979) nr. 1 pages 31-41
Year: 1979-01-01
Contents: An attempt is made to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of educational counselling, based on a study of a sample of 603 students attending counselling sessions in the University of Birmingham. The difficulties of finding criteria to judge the efficacy of counselling, and of controlling for other influences, are discussed. The analysis shows that 56% of the students who came for help to the educational counselling service (mostly as an 'end-of-the-road' referral, or through self-referral) have subsequently obtained degree qualifications. The current cost of 'rescuing' one student is estimated as being in the region of 29.
