Book Description
The basic problem of this investigation was to determine if peer counselors could be effective as group counselors for Educational Opportunity Program (EOP), freshman students. This effectiveness would be demonstrated by changes in self concept and academic adjustment for those students who participated in the group counseling process. This investigation was designed to examine students with peers as group counselors (Group I), students with an EOP staff counselor as the leader of the group counseling process (Group II) and students who did not participate in either group counseling procedure (Group III). The sample of the study consisted of 29 freshman students who entered Oregon State University through the Office of Educational Opportunity during the fall term of the 1973 school year. These students were divided among three groups in such a way as to insure a balance according to sex and ethnic group membership. The Tennessee Self Concept Scale (TSCS) served as a measure of change in self concept and the College Inventory of Academic Adjustment (CIAA) was used to measure changes in adjustment. The Group Behavior Rating Scale (GBRS) was used with the experimental groups only and served to measure changes in group behavior. These instruments were administered under pre and posttest conditions during the fall quarter. The total scores were used for testing the statistical hypotheses. Seven hypotheses related to the effects of group counseling and peers on self concept and academic adjustment were tested, using a t test, analysis of variance and covariance and a test for correlation. Hypotheses were designed to compare pre and post-test mean scores for each group in order to determine if significant changes occurred within groups. Comparisons were made between. groups I and II to examine whether changes occurred more fres, . quently with peers or staff counselors as the group fagilitators. Further comparisons were made between the Treatments (Groups I and II) and Controls (Group III) to examine the effects of the group counseling procedure. The group participants (Groups I and II) changed positively though not significantly on all subscores on the TSCS while the group of individuals who did not participate in the group procedure did not show such changes. There were, significant differences on certain subscores of the instruments used. These subscores were Identity on the TSCS, Personal Relations on the CIAA, and Self Confidence and Cooperation on the GBRS. However, the general hypotheses were rejected in terms of total scores.

Book Description
Fifteen years ago, Jeffrey Jensen Arnett proposed emerging adulthood as a new life stage at ages 18-29, one distinct from both the adolescence that precedes it and the young adulthood that eventually follows. Rather than marrying and becoming parents in their early 20s, most people in developed countries now postpone these transitions until at least their late 20s, spending these years in self-focused explorations as they try out different possibilities in their education, careers, and relationships. Since Arnett proposed his theory of emerging adulthood in 2000, it has turned into a full-fledged academic field, and the ideas have been applied in practical areas as well, such as mental health and education. The Oxford Handbook of Emerging Adulthood brings together for the first time the wealth of theory and research that has developed in this new and burgeoning field. It includes chapters by many prominent scholars on a wide range of topics, such as brain development, relations with friends, relations with parents, expectations for marriage, sexual relationships, media use, substance use and abuse, and resilience. The chapters both summarize the existing research and point the way to new prospects for research in the years to come.
