The researchers of this study investigated how frequently a set of 17 non-academic behavioral indicators were used to determine impairment of master’s-level counseling students that resulted in remediation and termination. Thirty-five academic unit leaders of the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) participated in a telephone survey, and information about 86 cases of impaired students were collected and analyzed using descriptive methods. Of the 17 impairment indicators, 15 were cited by participants as reasons for remediation of impaired students in their programs. All 17 were cited as reasons for termination of impaired students in their programs. ACCESS FULL MANUSCRIPT HERE: http://cnx.org/content/m17376/latest/
