Abstract

The development and integration of values such as spirituality, religiosity, and multicultural competency have been mushrooming in a number of counselling field research areas such as career, family, and ethics. These values are viewed and accepted as important aspect in enhancing various dimensions of counselling practices. Spirituality is the sense of inter-connectedness with the Supreme Being and religiosity is defined as community and cultural beliefs that involves practices, rituals, and validation from a group of people. Multicultural competency is one’s awareness, knowledge, and skills about various cultures. The purpose of this study will be to examine the influence of spirituality, religiosity, and multicultural counselling on counsellors’ self-efficacy in dealing with legal and ethical dilemmas. The respondents will be registered counsellors or trainee counsellors who will need to answer a set of questionnaires consisting of five components: demographic background, perceived spirituality, perceived religiosity, perceived multicultural competency, and self-efficacy in dealing with ethical issues. This study will use descriptive statistics to provide basic information retrieved from the data as well as Pearson Correlation to examine the relationship between the values and finally to determine the values that influence self-efficacy of counsellors in dealing with ethical issues. The variable that has greatest influence on counsellors’ self-efficacy will be identified at the end of data analysis.
