Research Abstract |
It became clear from the result of this study that there is some possibility that e-mail counseling can answer another need of the students from that for usual (face-to-face) student counseling. It seems that it will be possible to set e-mail counseling as a new support system or channel in campus life of the students who are in trouble. On the other hand, the limits or the weak points of e-mail counseling also became clear. There were many difficulties of e-mail counseling, such as difficulties of exact assessments on clients only on the basis of their e-mails, taking counselors a great amount of loads for replying their e-mails suitably, difficulties of urgent intervention, easy discontinuation by clients, difficulties of following them after discontinuation, difficulties of introducing them to usual (face-to-face) student counseling and so on. It was suggested that it was one of the most important factors which made big difference of effectiveness of e-mail counseling was difference in abilities to read and write texts among the clients.
