This study tried to reveal the relation among the necessary and sufficient conditions of human relation, which is the core concept of human-centered counseling. The relation of these three conditions are quite different according to what we take as the main content of authenticity. If we take congruence as its content, as Rogers did in his early academic years, three conditions are equal in their importance as instruments which counselor can use. But, if we take presence as its content, as Rogers did in his later academic years, authenticity possesses central position while using empathy and unconditional positive regard as its instruments. In this relation, we can say authenticity is a continuous growing process of self realization. And it also can be sad that the three necessary and sufficient conditions compose productive counseling relation inviting both counselor and client to the self realizing process.

A call center is a place that an enterprise contacts with clients through information and communication technologies. It is, therefore, the integrated situation room that a consultant gives expert advice to clients using tele-marketing functions and communication technologies. Recently, the tendency of the enterprise is toward newly designing and improving the office layout in consideration of the psychology and the aesthetic intention of the personnel for a performance of the enterprise. In this paper, we study on the influence of a consultant seating arrangement on job satisfaction and immersion in order to maximize the job efficiency of the call center. Human-oriented office layout lead the consultants to be immersed in their job, to reduce stress, and to increasing the job efficiency.

The purpose of this study is to conduct the Korean translation and validity of the Unconditional Positive Self-Regard Scale(UPSR) that Patterson and Joseph(2006) originally developed based on the Rogerian person-centered theory. K-UPSR was adapted, modified and validated from the UPSR Scale. This study verified reliability and validity, and factor structure of K-UPSR. The preliminary study was proceeded with twelve adapted questions to 131 undergraduate and graduate students. As a result, three questions were deleted for the low reliability. The exploratory factor analysis of the nine questions showed two sub factors. The internal consistency reliability of nine questions with two sub factors was .89 in this study. The study was conducted by 419 male and female adults and verified confirmatory factor analysis and the validity. The study data was evaluated for the suitability of convergent and discriminant validity of K-UPSR. Through the correlation analysis of other five scales, the result was mostly corresponded to the preliminary study.

This study wanted to see if there was a difference in the development of counselors before and after sandplay education analysis and verbal education analysis. Ten people were selected for the sandplay education analysis and the level of counselor development before and after receiving the verbal education analysis, divided into three groups that received the verbal education analysis, and the three groups that received the language education analysis. A nonparametric test, Kruskal-Wallis test, was conducted to identify differences in the results of the pre-parametric test, and a nonparametric test, Wilcoxon signed tank test was conducted to identify differences in the pre-post test results. Studies have shown that there is a statistically significant difference in the overall development of counselors and in case of case, in the whole of sandplay education analysis groups, while those that received verbal education analysis and those that did not receive education analysis do not have a statistically significant difference in the level of counselors development. This study is meaningful as it proves that sand play education analysis is effective in the development of counselors.

Philosophical counseling, established by Achenbach in 1981, began as "philosophical practice" and emerged only recently as a new field of philosophy in its own right. It attempts, by recasting the philosopher as a counselor, to bring philosophy back from academia and recover the ancient notion of "doing philosophy," in a real-life context. Furthermore, it allows clients who are at a critical moment in their life a chance to revive their authentic selves and empowers them to pursue their own path. By engaging with philosophical counseling, clients are more likely to realize their hopes for their lives by examining their lives thoroughly and facing them anew. This paper first attempts to investigate philosophical counseling services for Korean women and to outline a new model of counseling based on the combination of two models of counseling, philosophical counseling and feminist counseling. In the second chapter, it seeks to introduce the history and characteristics of philosophical counseling and in the third chapter, the history and characteristics of feminist counseling are investigated, focusing on a counseling-activity entitled "Telephone for Women." Finally, in the fourth chapter, a comparative study is made by identifying the common aspects of each counseling type, in order to promote the shared outlooks of both counseling models. Although these two models of counseling emerged from different historical, social, and cultural contexts, they were founded according to four common beliefs, which are as follows: first, a focus on the importance of "practice," second, the establishment of an equal relationship between the counselor and the client, third, the importance of counselors listening attentively to the client and opening themselves up, fourth, the encouragement of clients becoming truly themselves and self-educated. Therefore, the writer believes that these two models of counseling are both aiming at the realization of an authentic "human life." It is hoped that philosophical counseling will give Korean women an opportunity to maintain a dialogue that will improve their "well-being" in the future.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the current status and problems of the social service delivery system for women in Korea, and to suggest ways to improve its function. The current social service delivery system in the public sector contains a network of services connected with the Division of Women's Welfare in the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. This study focused on evaluating the function of the public service delivery system from the perspective of the service providers. A survey of 167 civil officers in charge of women's welfare services in the city.county.district administrations, and 202 women's welfare counselors around the country was conducted in order to evaluate their current duties, effectiveness of services, and problems of the current system Six criteria including integration, continuity, accessibility, adequacy, efforts and professionalism were used for evaluating the effectiveness of the social service delivery system for women. According to the survey, the civil officers and women's counselors gave relatively favorable ratings for their job effectiveness and job satisfaction. However, their duties involving guidance and counseling of prostitute women and operation of women's welfare councils received least favorable evaluation. Moreover, in terms for job satisfaction, these service providers were less satisfied with their working conditions than their relationships with clients or colleagues. In addition, budget and personnel shortages were the most serious problems facing the delivery system Further analysis showed that professionalism and accessibility of the service delivery system had positive impact on job effectiveness while efforts, integration, accessibility and adequacy had positive impact on job satisfaction of the service providers. These findings have potential implications for designing more effective social service delivery system for women.

This research presents the relationship building between the supervisor and supervisee through the supervision process in a narrative inquiry. The supervisory relationships of the supervisor A and supervisee B, and the effects they have on the relationship between the two are described in as factual terms as possible. The results imply that genuineness and openness are the core components of relationship. Especially, in the case of a highly hierarchical relationship, where it is often easy for the supervisor to employ hidden tactics, efforts on the part of the supervisor's endeavor to develop unconditional acceptance can be helpful in establishing a more open-minded attitude. As a result, the common view in the literature that attributes relationship hierarchy to cultural factors may need to be reexamined. This research provides evidence that in the case of supervision and training in counseling, establishing an environment of acceptance, trust and rapport can help advance the supervisory relationship to a less hierarchical form.
