It is hypothesized that vocational clients who receive precounseling preparation adopt a role in counseling that is more realistic and effective than the role adopted by clients who do not receive such preparation. Twenty‐four Ss who were given a precounseling lecture‐discussion were compared to twenty‐three control Ss. The hypothesis was verified. Other implications of the study are discussed.
