Halim Othman&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“ Counseling for the well being of mankind is an attempt to look at the counseling service from the historical perspectives leading towards the development to the present situation, where with rapid social development and progress, our well being is somewhat affected, as reflected by a host of social problems”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the introduction of counseling and guidance for more than three decades there is now an increasing awareness that the service becomes more systematically and orderly through the appointment of fulltime counselors. This development is in keeping with current needs and demands. The problem now arises because the training of counselors is yet inadequate to qualify them as professionals needed for the service entrusted upon them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apart from upgrading training programs, professional counseling must also focus on research, publications and commitment to a high standard of ethics and practice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The counseling service has the potential to be a professional service in Malaysia, with the necessary support and infrastructure available and in the foreseeable future, specialized service will emerge in order to deal with varied and complex problems confronting humanity. Through such developments, counseling in Malaysia will be more prepared to enhance the wellbeing of mankind.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-7724515674576897174?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/7724515674576897174/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=7724515674576897174' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7724515674576897174'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7724515674576897174'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2010/04/counseling-for-wellbeing-of-humankind.html' title='Counseling for the Wellbeing of Humankind'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-3269950864640326242</id><published>2008-11-07T14:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-07T15:25:15.334-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Syarahan Perdana Profesor'/><title type='text'>Syarahan PErdana Profesor Dr. Rohany Nasir</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SRTNndKEOzI/AAAAAAAAAok/BWmrptuuQkM/s1600-h/olympus+oktober+040.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SRTNndKEOzI/AAAAAAAAAok/BWmrptuuQkM/s400/olympus+oktober+040.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266059942028393266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Syarahan Perdana Profesor Dr. Rohany Nasir yang bertemakan Kaunseling Kerjaya : Anjakan daripada Konvensionalisme telah di adakan di bilik senat, bangunan canselori Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia pada 7 hb November 2008 bermula jam 8.30 pagi hingga 10.30 pagi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Naib Canselor UKM, telah memperkenalkan Prof. Dr. Rohany Nasir bagi syarahan perdana pada pagi itu.

On certain years, mid-year workshops had also been held. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Association’s founding members are from India, Indonesia, Hongkong, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and the Philipines. They were later joined by counsellors from Brunei, Thailand and Sri Lanka. Because of consistent presence, counsellors from Australia were then allowed to become members, hence, extending the originally Asia organization to the Pacific.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a marvel that from the initial meeting of about forty people in 1976, the Association has reached its 32nd year of existence with several Lifetime Members and Fellows.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-7594708671817735721?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/7594708671817735721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=7594708671817735721' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7594708671817735721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7594708671817735721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/09/apeca-bali-conference.html' title='APECA Bali Conference'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4488536503627713681</id><published>2008-09-04T15:35:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:42:56.777-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Penyalahgunaan Dadah'/><title type='text'>Bantu Pencegahan Semula</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBklFvIaOI/AAAAAAAAAQg/GuC3nWr--2A/s1600-h/2247994273_1c2c15b1d8.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBklFvIaOI/AAAAAAAAAQg/GuC3nWr--2A/s320/2247994273_1c2c15b1d8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242300554617055458" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masyarakat mesti bantu cegah penagihan semula -26/2/2000 Utusan &lt;br /&gt;Oleh: DR. MAHMOOD NAZAR MOHAMED, DR. MD. SHUAIB CHE DIN dan MUHAMMAD DZAHIR KASA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ISTILAH penagihan semula atau relapse digunakan untuk memperihalkan keadaan seseorang penagih yang ketagih semula kepada dadah walaupun setelah ia menerima rawatan penagihan dari pusat-pusat pemulihan dadah.&lt;br /&gt;Lazimnya, apabila penagih mengalami relapse, ia akan ketagih kepada dadah dengan keadaan yang lebih serius lagi. Ia boleh disamaertikan dengan seorang yang cuba berhenti merokok, tetapi akhirnya beliau kembali merokok dengan kadar lebih banyak lagi.&lt;br /&gt;Masalah relapse ini adalah amat nyata sekali. Satu kajian yang diusahakan oleh penyelidik UUM baru-baru ini ke atas 2,416 orang penghuni serenti mendapati sebilangan signifikan menggunakan semula pada tiga bulan pertama setelah mereka keluar dari pusat-pusat pemulihan.&lt;br /&gt;Jikalau ditinjau sebab-sebab bekas penagih menagih semula, kita akan dapati bahawa adalah agak sukar tugas dan beban untuk merawat dan memulihkan mereka hanya diletak di atas bahu Agensi Dadah Kebangsaan sahaja. &lt;br /&gt;Sebaliknya ia haruslah diusahakan oleh segenap lapisan masyarakat.&lt;br /&gt;Kita lihat kepada satu contoh. Seandainya satu epidemik penyakit berlaku dalam sesuatu negara, pihak kerajaan lazimnya akan menyediakan ubat-ubatan serta vaksin; mereka yang sakit pula akan dirawat supaya orang yang sihat tidak dijangkiti penyakit; anggota masyarakat juga sama-sama berusaha menghapuskan vektor yang menyebabkan merebaknya penyakit ini dengan membersihkan kawasan tempat tinggal; pelbagai kempen dilakukan oleh pihak NGO dan swasta agar semua pihak menjaga kebersihan; dan akhir sekali usaha semua pihak ini pula akan dikoordinasi oleh sesebuah agensi kerajaan supaya epidemik dapat dibendung.&lt;br /&gt;Apa bezanya dengan masalah dadah? Kita anggaplah penagihan sebagai sejenis penyakit. Jikalau ia tidak dirawat, ia akan menjadi lebih teruk. Penagih akan menjadi bertambah ramai, curi-mencuri akan menjadi-jadi, anak-anak kecil melihat contoh-contoh yang tidak wajar, dan masyarakat akan terus hidup dalam suasana porak-peranda.&lt;br /&gt;Kajian UUM mendapati bahawa faktor utama yang mendorong kepada penagihan semula di kalangan bekas penghuni Pusat Serenti ialah pengaruh rakan sebaya.&lt;br /&gt;Sejumlah 39.7% penagih mengaku bahawa mereka menggunakan semula dadah kerana dipengaruhi oleh rakan-rakan.&lt;br /&gt;Apabila ditinjau mengapa perkara ini belaku, sebilangan yang signifikan menjawab bahawa mereka tiada pilihan lain kecuali untuk kembali ke tempat tinggal yang sama.&lt;br /&gt;Mereka masih terus disisih oleh keluarga dan masyarakat, dan dalam keadaan di mana mereka perlukan sokongan, hanya kawan-kawan lama sahaja yang menghulurkan bantuan.&lt;br /&gt;Sehubungan dengan itu, dua sebab utama yang diakui oleh bekas penagih sendiri sebagai faktor yang membantu mereka untuk tidak menggunakan semula dadah ialah bantuan keluarga dan sokongan masyarakat. Sejumlah 26% daripada bekas penagih yang belum menagih semula mengatakan keluarga adalah faktor penting yang membantu mereka bebas dari dadah, dan 20% lagi mengatakan sebab dorongan agama dan masyarakat.&lt;br /&gt;Seterusnya, jikalau ditinjau sebab kedua yang mendorong penagih yang telah dirawat untuk menagih semula ialah kurang sokongan moral (22.4%) dan dengan itu, mereka terpaksa tunduk semula kepada kekuatan dadah.&lt;br /&gt;Apabila dikaji dengan lebih teliti lagi sebab disebaliknya, penagih mengatakan bahawa seandainya masyarakat sekeliling faham akan keadaan mereka yang sedang 'berperang' dengan perasaan rindu kepada dadah dengan memberi sokongan moral, ia mungkin tidak menyebabkan mereka merasa begitu tertekan dan terus mengaku kalah kepada dadah. Hujah ini disokong oleh 18.6% bekas penagih masih belum relapse, yang mengatakan bahawa sokongan moral daripada masyarakat sekeliling membantu untuk mendorong mereka menjauhi dadah.&lt;br /&gt;Oleh itu, boleh disimpulkan bahawa seandainya penagih yang sudah dirawat tidak disambut baik, tidak diterima dengan hati terbuka atau tidak diberi sokongan oleh keluarga sendiri, nyata sekali mereka ini sudah mula bergerak ke arah penagihan semula. Tambahan pula, jikalau mereka terus disisih, dicaci dan dikutuk oleh masyarakat setempat, mereka akan melihat usaha pemulihan yang diikuti selama ini sebagai sia-sia sahaja.&lt;br /&gt;Jadi, di manakah tempat untuk mereka mencari perlindungan? Lazimnya, kawan-kawan lama yang memberikan perlindungan. Apabila bekas penagih bergaul semula dengan rakan-rakan yang masih menagih, mereka jarang sekali dapat bertahan lama dan akan terus relapse.&lt;br /&gt;Dengan berlandaskan fakta ini, kita mungkin boleh mengkaji bagaimanakah anggota masyarakat dapat membantu bekas-bekas penagih untuk meneruskan kehidupan yang bebas dari dadah.&lt;br /&gt;Pertama, stigma penagih dadah harus digugurkan. Janganlah melabel bekas penagih dengan merujuk kepada masalah lampau mereka (penagihan). Berikan mereka peluang untuk buktikan diri mereka.&lt;br /&gt;Kedua, bertegur sapa dengan bekas penagih seperti juga kita melayan rakan-rakan kita yang lain. Ini akan bantu meningkatkan harga diri bekas penagih di samping memupuk keyakinan diri bahawa mereka boleh menjauhi dadah dan menjadi anggota masyarakat yang baik.&lt;br /&gt;Ketiga, kita layan bekas penagih seperti salah seorang anggota masyarakat yang bertanggungjawab. Ini akan memberi tekanan positif kepada "bekas penagih" untuk terus membuktikan bahawa mereka boleh menjadi anggota masyarakat yang produktif.&lt;br /&gt;Keempat, kita boleh berikan sokongan dengan menerima mereka sebagai pekerja. Bekas penagih yang sibuk dengan pekerjaan sudah tidak banyak masa untuk memikirkan tentang dadah, ataupun perasaan rindu terhadap bahan berkenaan.&lt;br /&gt;Kelima, kita libatkan diri dengan badan-badan bukan kerajaan (NGO) yang menjalankan khidmat nasihat atau kaunseling dengan penagih dadah. Aktiviti sukarela seperti ini akan membuat kita lebih faham tentang betapa sukarnya untuk melawan pengaruh dadah, dan dengan itu akan menjadi lebih peka dengan masalah mereka.&lt;br /&gt;Penglibatan seperti yang digariskan di atas boleh membantu bekas penagih dengan beberapa cara, iaitu memberi peluang kepada mereka untuk membuktikan perubahan yang dialami, dan membantu mereka mengurangkan beban sampingan supaya usaha boleh terus ditumpukan ke arah pemulihan berpanjangan. Ingatlah bahawa usaha yang dilakukan oleh bekas-bekas penagih untuk menjauhi dadah ini adalah amat sukar dan amat mencabar.

Daripada satu soalan, dia akan bertanya soalan lain pula. Contoh, ibu kenapa mesti mandi? Kalau tak mandi jadi apa? Kenapa kucing tak mandi? Ibu mandi tak? Kadangkala, anda mungkin tergamam dengan pelbagai soalan yang diajukan anak anda itu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mengapa kanak-kanak bertanya banyak soalan?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kanak-kanak dalam dunia dewasa seperti orang dewasa berada di negara asing. Mereka perlukan maklumat setiap hari, kadangkala pertanyaan itu sebenarnya menunjukkan mereka keliru. Soalan yang konsisten menunjukkan tahap perkembangan mindanya. Selalunya soalan yang ditanya selari dengan usia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pada usia dua tahun, kanak-kanak biasanya akan bertanya ‘ayah, itu apa?’. Jawapan anda akan menambahkan tata bahasanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pada usia tiga tahun, otaknya sudah berkembang. Dia boleh bertanya ‘mengapa’. Misalnya, mengapa malam mesti gelap. Sedaya upaya sebagai ibu bapa, anda jawab soalan itu kerana jawapan anda akan membantu dia memahami apa yang dilihatnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kanak-kanak empat tahun ke atas selalunya akan menyedari ada dunia di luar pengalamannya. Ketika itu, dia akan mula bertanya dan contohnya seperti soalan ini “Ibu bagaimana kapal terbang boleh terbang?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagaimana jika anda tidak tahu jawapannya?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kadangkala anak anda akan bertanya soalan yang sukar anda menjawabnya. Bukan kerana anda tidak tahu tetapi anda tidak tahu bagaimana memulakannya. Anda mungkin ada idea tetapi tidak pasti jawapan yang anda beri itu betul atau sebaliknya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jangan mengambil jalan mudah dengan berbohong kepada anak anda jika anda tidak tahu jawapan kepada soalan yang dikemukakan. Jika anda tidak suka anak anda berbohong, anda harus memulakan dengan sikap anda sendiri.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Satu hari anak anda mungkin bertanya, “Ayah, bagaimana lampu boleh menyala?” Anda mungkin ada idea mengenai elektrik tetapi sukar untuk menjelaskannya. Anda mungkin akan berkata sains sebagai jawapannya. Mungkin anak anda akan berpuas hati, mungkin tidak. Jika dia masih ingin tahu, katakan dengan jujur sebenarnya anda pun tidak tahu. Bagaimanapun, berjanjilah untuk sama-sama mencari jawapan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Misalnya, bawa anak anda ke zoo jika dia ingin tahu bagaimana bunyi suara gajah atau jika kebetulan anda ada abang yang bekerja dengan Jabatan Perlindungan Hidupan Liar dan Taman Negara (Perhilitan), minta anak anda rujuk kepada bapa saudaranya itu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagaimana kalau soalan itu sukar dijawab?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apabila kanak-kanak makin membesar dia akan bertanya mengenai soalan membabitkan tubuh. Apatah lagi jika dia mempunyai adik berlainan jantina, selain mungkin dia pelik melihat wanita hamil. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anak anda tiba-tiba bertanya anda “Di mana ibu beli adik?” Mungkin anda tergamam dan terfikir apakah jawapan paling ideal untuk diberikan kepada anak anda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sebenarnya anda boleh menjelaskan keadaan sebenar walau berapa usia anak anda. Bagaimanapun, jelaskan serba ringkas dan sesuai dengan usia. Mungkin anda boleh katakan secara ringkas, adik datang daripada perut ibu seperti dia. Jelaskan kepadanya ibu akan bercerita lagi apabila dia meningkat dewasa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagaimana untuk membuat anak anda berhenti menyoal?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soalan anak anda mungkin bertalu-talu atau bersambung-sambung. Daripada jawapan yang anda beri, anak anda akan membina soalan lain pula. Walaupun kita cuba bersabar, ada kalanya kesabaran itu boleh hilang. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jangan cepat marah dan menyuruh anak anda meninggal anda. Mungkin anda boleh secara lembut memberitahunya, cukuplah setakat ini, soalan itu kita simpan esok. Anak biasanya akan cepat lupa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sebenarnya soalan bertalu begitu bermaksud dia memerlukan perhatian.

Setakat ini, belum lagi terdapat buku kepimpinan kelompok dalam bahasa Melayu yang boleh menjadi garis panduan yang lengkap bagi rujukan kaunselor dan bakal-bakal kaunselor kelompok di Malaysia. Oleh itu, buku ini dapat membantu semua kaunselor dan bakal kaunselor kelompok bagi menyelami, memahami dan mengamalkan kepimpinan kelompok dengan lebih berkesan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buku ini menumpukan khas kepada kepimpinan kelompok kaunseling. Memimpin kelompok kaunseling adalah satu seni dan beberapa komponen penting diperlukan bagi menghasilkan seorang pemimpin yang benar-benar layak memimpin kelompok kaunseling. Komponen-komponen tersebut adalah personaliti kaunselor, pengetahuan berkaitan teori dan dinamik, kemahiran praktikal dan pengalaman berasaskan pengalaman. Dengan mengambil kira semua komponen tersebut, 15 bab disediakan di dalam buku ini bagi membantu dan membimbing pembaca memantapkan diri sebagai pemimpin kelompok ataupun sekadar memahami proses kaunseling kelompok itu sendiri. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bab satu memperkenalkan pembaca kepada beberapa jenis kelompok yang biasa dilaksanakan dalam perhubungan membantu. Ia membekalkan pengetahuan am kepada pembaca berkaitan ciri-ciri unik setiap jenis kelompok dan perbezaan yang terdapat antara kelompok tersebut. Bab 2 dan Bab 3 pula menumpukan kepada aspek pemimpin kelompok sebagai individu. Antara yang dibicangkan adalah, ciri personaliti, fungsi, kelayakan yang diperlukan di kalangan pemimpin kelompok, serta gaya kepimpinan yang dapat digunakan semasa memimpin kelompok. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seterusnya bab empat menerangkan berkaitan peringkat-peringkat yang dilalui oleh sebuah kelompok kaunseling. Tumpuan diberi kepada ciri-ciri utama, tugas perkembangan ahli dan peranan pemimpin di setiap peringkat dalam proses kelompok tersebut. Bab lima dan bab enam pula memberi garis panduan kemahiran praktikal daripada segi kemahiran asas pemimpin kelompok dan kaedah-kaedah menangani konflik dalam kelompok. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pendekatan teori juga memainkan peranan penting dalam pelaksanaan kelompok yang berkesan. Oleh itu Bab 7 hingga 12 menumpukan kepada enam teori terpilih yang dapat digunakan semasa memimpin kelompok. Setiap teori diterangkan dengan terperinci merangkumi prinsip asasnya, matlamat kelompok, peranan pemimpin, proses kelompok dan teknik-teknik yang dapat dilaksanakan secara praktikal dalam kelompok. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Memimpin kelompok adalah satu tugas yang mencabar dan ada kalanya memerlukan gandingan dua orang kaunselor yang berpengalaman. Bab 13 mengenengahkan kaedah kepimpinan bersama bagi membantu kaunselor memimpin kelompok dengan lebih berkesan. Pembaca memahami kelebihan dan kekurangan mengendalikan kelompok secara bersama di samping diberi beberapa garis panduan bagi memastikan kejayaan kerjasama antara pemimpin. Seterusnya Bab 14 tidak melupakan aspek etika yang menjadi landasan perlaksanaan kaunseling yang profesional. Akhir sekali, Bab 15 memperkenalkan beberapa aktiviti menarik yang dapat dijadikan panduan kepada pemimpin kelompok terutamanya pemimpin baru agar sesi kelompok bukan sekadar perbincangan yang hambar, sebaliknya lebih bertenaga dan produktif.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secara peribadi, penulis tidak setuju jika kepakaran seseorang kaunselor kelompok hanya bergantung kepada pengetahuannya berkaitan dinamik dan teori semata-mata. Bagi menjadi pemimpin yang berkesan, pengetahuan yang diperolehi daripada buku ini mesti disusuli dengan pengalaman berasaskan pengalaman sama ada dengan menjadi ahli sesebuah kelompok ataupun mengendalikan kelompok itu sendiri. Ini kerana pengetahuan melalui pembacaan sahaja tidak akan menjamin seseorang itu layak menjadi pemimpin kelompok yang berketrampilan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Semoga usaha ini diberkati Tuhan kerana tujuan penulisan buku ini lahir dengan niat bagi melahirkan pemimpin kelompok yang berkesan agar dapat membantu lebih ramai individu melalui kaunseling kelompok. Buku seumpama ini dapat melengkapi latihan yang diperolehi oleh bakal-bakal kaunselor di IPT di Malaysia dan juga mampu dijadikan panduan oleh kaunselor yang sedia mengamalkan kaunseling kelompok. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buat pembaca sekalian, selamat menimba ilmu daripada buku ini.

Namun untuk pertama kalinya, imej bahagian otak yang mana diaktifkan - yang mereka jelaskan melalui imbasan - menunjukkan bagaimana manusia menilai keputusan moral seseorang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Penyelidikan yang diterbitkan dalam Journal Science edisi Jumaat lalu, adalah memecahkan tradisi, kata Jonathan Haidt, ahli psikologi sosial dan budaya di Universiti Virginia.&lt;br /&gt;``Kami tidak memahami sebenarnya bagaimana sebab moral dan penghakiman kita dilakukan,'' kata Haidt. Tetapi kata Haidt, kajian terbaru ini menyokong teorinya sebelum ini bahawa ``kita menghadapi kehidupan ini dengan sukar sebagaimana sukarnya kita menghakimi moral berdasarkan alasan yang diberikan.'' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kajian itu menggambarkan ``dua bahagian otak kita (emosi dan analitikal) menunjukkan tindak balas dan memain peranan dalam setiap keadaan tegang yang dihadapi,'' kata penulis bersama rencana tersebut, Dr. Jonathan Cohen, Pengarah Pusat Princeton bagi Kajian Otak, Fikiran dan Tingkah Laku.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Persefahaman yang lebih baik ialah bagaimana kita membuat pengadilan moral demi kepentingan masyarakat, kata Joshua Greene, pelajar ijazah falsafah di Princeton yang turut mengikuti kajian itu.  ``Kebanyakan isu utama sosial dan politik yang membahagi-bahagikan manusia sebenarnya ialah isu moral. Alasan moral berada pada peringkat paling tinggi dalam struktur otak kita. Jika kita ingin terus bersama di antara satu sama lain dan... kita dapati dunia mempunyai pelbagai warna moral, kita perlu memahami di mana asalnya gambaran dunia ini,'' kata Greene.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dilema moral peribadi seperti kes landasan kereta api; sama ada semasa perang, ia hampir-hampir kepada tindakan mendiamkan bayi yang menangis dengan apa cara sekalipun, asalkan penceroboh tidak menemui dan membunuh semua kumpulan orang ramai; juga seperti kes mencampakkan orang daripada bot penyelamat yang karam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dilema moral antara peribadi pula seperti adakah anda mempedulikan rayuan bantuan kewangan bagi menyelamatkan kanak-kanak daripada kebuluran, walaupun anda tidak menyedari kisah sebenarnya. Dan adakah anda akan menyimpan wang yang anda temui daripada dompet yang tercicir?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soalan bukan moral pula adalah seperti bagaimana memandu arah bagi menyempurnakan perjalanan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manusia menggunakan beberapa bahagian otak untuk berunding dengan emosi dalam menentukan soalan moral peribadi yang jauh lebih sukar daripada untuk mereka menentukan keputusan soalan antara peribadi dan bukan moral.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manusia juga menggunakan bahagian ingatan yang bekerja - untuk logik tenang - yang kurang aktif sebagaimana sukarelawan membahaskan soalan moral peribadi.&lt;br /&gt;Para penyelidik menemui jawapan, berapa lama masa diambil oleh para sukarelawan untuk membuat keputusan bagi setiap soalan. Sedikit sahaja di kalangan mereka yang memilih keputusan dengan membiarkan kereta api meneruskan perjalanannya daripada berhenti. Ini berbeza dengan masa yang lama diambil untuk membuat keputusan kes mencampakkan orang dari bot penyelamat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Penyelidikan ini mencadangkan bahawa emosi sebenar melakonkan tindakan dengan mengatakan,`Ya, menerima aspek moral, dengan mengorbankan kumpulan yang sedikit bagi kebaikan kumpulan yang lebih banyak, kata Cohen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Penyelidikan ini adalah sebahagian perkembangan kajian saraf (neurologi) dalam tindak balas antara emosi dan kognisi. Setakat ini, para saintis menemui bahawa kimia otak yang memikirkan emosi juga mempunyai peranan kognisi, yang penting untuk pembelajaran. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Penemuan ini turut memberi kesan kepada bidang lain, kata Cohen. Beliau merujuk pada tingkah laku ahli ekonomi yang mengkaji bagaimana emosi bertindak balas dalam membuat keputusan perbelanjaan bagi membangunkan model terbaik dalam bidang ekonomi.&lt;br /&gt;Kata Cohen, penemuan itu juga boleh memberi sinar baru kepada masyarakat, bagaimana reaksi digambarkan terhadap serangan pengganas ke atas Amerika pada Selasa minggu lalu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;``Marah adalah reaksi normal, tetapi bahagian kognitif otak pula boleh berlainan - mengimbanginya - itu emosi,'' kata Cohen. - AP&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-796447354776595335?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/796447354776595335/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=796447354776595335' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/796447354776595335'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/796447354776595335'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/08/emosi-dan-moral.html' title='Emosi dan Moral'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBs9eWpuRI/AAAAAAAAAQw/-xZGmeHdXuk/s72-c/2247994329_98ff64dbdc.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-6265682953879067850</id><published>2008-07-20T04:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:41:49.665-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Person Centered Therapy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>What is Client Centered Therapy? What Is Not</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Client-Centered Therapy - &lt;br /&gt;What Is It? What Is It Not?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barbara Temaner Brodley, August, 1986&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;Carl R. Rogers, the originator of client-centered therapy, did not intend to found a school of psychotherapy with a set practice. Instead, he worked with his clients, reflected on the therapy process and, at a certain point, he advanced a set of hypotheses (1957) about the causes of constructive personality change. He presented the theory so it could be tried out by others and so it could be used as a basis for further research on psychotherapy. &lt;br /&gt;Rogers thought his theory was an approximation to the truth about therapy. But he was, also, committed to protecting and encouraging a spirit of experimentation, discovery and creativity about psychotherapy. He did not want client-centered therapy to be "frozen" but, rather, to be a working hypothesis, a stimulus to further inquiry about the therapy process. &lt;br /&gt; Rogers always has been committed to promoting openness, growth and change in the pursuit of truth about therapeutic process. He has always encouraged and supported research projects and theorizing by others. And, very importantly, his presentation of the theory in terms of attitudinal conditions, not techniques, fostered openness to different ideas about therapeutic practice. His theory left it up to the practitioner to choose which behaviors or techniques could be used to communicate the therapeutic attitudinal conditions to the client. This development in client-centered theory opened the way for practitioners from many different therapeutic schools to incorporate the basic premise and thypothesesees of attitudinal conditions into their own therapy without abandoning their original orientations. It also set the stage for the creation of a variety of new therapeutic methods based on the fundamental principles of client-centered theory. &lt;br /&gt; It is my impression that there are many different therapy practices, and more therapies continually developing, which share the basic theory of client-centered therapy. This situation, of many evolving therapies which are often referred to as client-centered therapies, is confusing to students and confusing when one wishes to discuss differences in therapy practice with colleagues. &lt;br /&gt; I think it would clarify this situation to classify a therapy practice as a person-centered therapy whenever a therapist is trying to work from the basic hypotheses: the inherent growth principle and the major attitudinal conditions for constructive change. Once this classification is made, we can distinguish among the various person-centered therapies by their observable form, or their techniques, or by the additional principles, values or theoretical elements they encompass. &lt;br /&gt; I believe there are many evolving person-centered therapies and the practice of client-centered therapy is one of those. Client-centered therapy can be described in terms of the theory it shares with the other person-centered therapies and by its distinctive features. &lt;br /&gt;My view is that client-centered therapy is a distinctive and important practice and that it can be defined as a practice and its parameters clarified. I do not believe it would, by defining it in a delimiting way, become static or not evolve further. Rather, its evolution would be conceived within certain limits. Functioning therapeutically outside those limits would be considered, perhaps, a new and other person-centered therapy. Or someone might, also, be developing a practice outside the defined limits of the person-centered therapies. Certainly many of those already exist. The point is, this system of classification gets around the problem of freezing client-centered therapy but also permits distinctions in respect to the practices of therapy that are out there in the reality of therapeutic work. &lt;br /&gt; The differences distinguishable among person-centered therapies probably make substantial differences in the experience of therapy by both client and therapist and make differences in what is observable on tapes and films and, probably, make differences in the effects of the therapy on the lives of its clients. We can study and understand these different effects much better if we distinguish practices. But most important to me, the clarification and definition of client-centered therapy as distinguishable from other person-centered therapy practices can contribute to the presentation and evolution of this unique and extremely effective way of working with clients. I have felt, for some time, that client-centered therapy has been misunderstood, underestimated and underused, in part, because of its ambiguities as a practice and because of its confusion with other person-centered therapeutic practices. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The Person-Centered Approach&lt;br /&gt;Rogers has recently stated the basic hypothesis and the therapeutic conditions that distinguish the person-centered approach as follows: &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The central hypothesis of this approach can be briefly stated. It is that the individual has within him or her self vast resources for selfunderstanding, for altering her or his selfconcept, attitudes, and self-directed behavior--and that these resources can be tapped if only a definable climate of facilitative psychological attitudes can be provided. &lt;br /&gt; There are three conditions which constitute this growth-promoting climate, whether we are speaking of the relationship between therapist and client, parent and child, leader and group, teacher and student, or administrator and staff. The conditions apply, in fact, in any situation in which the development of the person is a goal. I have described these conditions at length in previous writings (Rogers, 1959, 1961). I present here a brief summary from the point of view of psychotherapy, but the description applies to all of the foregoing relationships. &lt;br /&gt; The first element has to do with genuineness, realness, or congruence. The more the therapist is him or herself in the relationship, putting up no professional front or personal facade, the greater is the likelihood that the client will change and grow in a constructive manner. . . . &lt;br /&gt; The second attitude of importance in creating a climate for change is acceptance, or caring or prizing--unconditional positive regard. It means that when the therapist is experiencing a positive, nonjudgmental, accepting attitude toward whatever the client is at that moment, therapeutic movement or change is more likely. . . . &lt;br /&gt; The third facilitative aspect of the relationship is empathic understanding. This means that the therapist senses accurately the feelings and personal meanings that are being experienced by the client and communicates this acceptant understanding to the client. (Rogers, 1986). &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Additional assumptions, beliefs and hypotheses that are central to the person-centered approach are the following: &lt;br /&gt;1. Belief that human nature is basically constructive. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;2. Belief that human nature is basically social. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;3. Belief that self-regard is a basic human need and that self-regard, autonomy and individual sensitivity are to be protected in helping relationships. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;4. Belief that persons are basically motivated to perceive realistically and to pursue the truth of situations. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;5. Belief that perceptions are a major determinant of personal experience and behavior and, thus, to understand a person one must attempt to understand them empathically. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;6. Belief that the individual person is the basic unit and that the individual should be addressed, (not groups, families, organizations, etc.), in situations intended to foster growth. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;7. Belief in the concept of the whole person. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;8. Belief that persons are realizing and protecting themselves as best they can at any given time and under the internal and external circumstances that exist at that time. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;9. Belief in abdication of the pursuit of control or authority over other persons and, instead, a commitment to strive to share power and control. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;10. A commitment to openmindedness and humility in respect to theory and practice. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The basic hypothesis, the theory of therapy and the additional beliefs stated above describe the person-centered approach. They are elements I believe are usually shared by the people practicing the various person-centered therapies including client-centered therapy. These shared elements do not, however, distinguish client-centered therapy from the other person-centered therapies. The following discussion is an attempt to define and discriminate the practice of client-centered therapy. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;Client-Centered Therapy - What is It?&lt;br /&gt;First, client-centered therapy is distinguishable by its form. The salient form of client-centered therapy is the empathic understanding response process (Temaner, 1977). The empathic understanding response process involves the therapist maintaining, with consistency and constancy the therapeutic attitudes in his/her experience and expressing him/herself to the client through empathic understanding responses. Please turn to the appendix of this presentation for four segments of therapy sessions which can serve as illustrations of empathic understanding response process. &lt;br /&gt; Empathic understanding responses are the observable responses which communicate empathic understanding to the client. They are responses intended to express and check the therapist's empathic understanding experience of the client. In a given empathic understanding response process between therapist and client many different types of empathic understanding responses may be involved. Examples of common types oempathic understandingng responses are the following: literal responses; restatements; summaries; statements which point toward the felt experience of the client but do not name or describe the experience; interpretive or inferential guesses concerning what the client is attempting to express; metaphors; questions that strive to express understandings of ambiguious experience of the client; gestures of the therapist's face, hands, body; vocal gestures, etc. &lt;br /&gt; What makes these types of response function as empathic understanding responses is that the therapist expresses them to the client with the intention to ask the client - 'is this what you are telling me?' or 'is this what you mean?', or 'is this what you are feeling?'. These types of response, and others, may be the vehicle for the expression of empathic understanding as long as their sole intended function is to help the therapist in his attempt to understand the client's internal frame of reference as the client is searching himself and communicates to the therapist. &lt;br /&gt; The empathic understanding response process can appear to be very different from therapist to therapist, and between therapies with different clients by the same therapist, depending upon the types of responses which are used by the therapist. The particular way the therapist expresses empathic understanding to the particular client does not matter, from the point of view of remaining within the client-centered framework, however, as long as the way communicates to the client the therapist's intention to understand and as long as the client feels understood by the therapist. &lt;br /&gt; Client-centered therapy is also distinguishable by the extreme emphasis the practice places on the non-directiveness of the therapist. In client-centered therapy the therapist is intensely mindful to respect and protect the autonomy and self-direction of the client. The client is viewed as the expert about himself and the therapist views himself as expert only in maintaining the attitudinal conditions in the relationship with the client, not as an expert on the client. &lt;br /&gt; The therapeutic relationship is inherently an unequal relation in which the client is self-defined as vulnerable and in need of help and the therapist is self-defined as one who can help. An element in the person/client-centered perspective is the belief that unequal relationships are naturally, to some extent, hurtful or harmful to the persons involved in them. &lt;br /&gt; Unequal relationships are sometimes necessary, for example the physician and patient or the teacher and student, because they offer desired benefits. But the person/client-centered perspective fosters the abdication of the pursuit of power and would argue for minimizing the hurt or harm by sharing the authority as much as possible. &lt;br /&gt; The client-centered therapist is particularly mindful of the harmful potential side-effect of the unequal therapeutic relation and tries to share his authority as much as possible. This awareness and effort influences all of his actions in relations to the client. Basically, the client centered therapist's view on this matter is - the authority for the client's experience is the client and the way the client uses the relationship is always left up to the client. &lt;br /&gt; This non-directive attitude has a significant influence on the way therapy is conducted, influencing what is done and what is not done. For example, the client-centered therapist answers client's questions. Obviously, if the therapist decides what questions it is appropriate to answer, or takes the view that certain questions are expression of a client's avoidance of something and the therapist interprets this to help the client get on the right track, or if the therapist takes the view that the client's question is an aspect of seeking dependence on the therapist and the therapist raises this interpretation, then the therapist is acting in ways that direct the client's process. From a client-centered viewpoint, the idea that the therapist should evaluate the desirability for the client of having his questions answered is paternalistic and an exercise of authority over the client. &lt;br /&gt; A client-centered therapist remains free to not answer a question asked by the client. But the reason for not answering would be explained to be a personal one - the therapist feels he does not know enough, or he feels uncomfortable in divulging the particular information, etc. - not as something that is good for the client. There are many, many implications for the way therapy is practiced when the client-centered therapist is acting from this strongly felt attitude that the client is his own best expert and that the therapist maintain non-directiveness. &lt;br /&gt; The non-directive character of client-centered therapy is not only for the purpose of protecting the client's autonomy and to enhance the client's self-direction. Client-centered therapy is a fundamentally non-directive therapy because being so contributes to the distinctive therapeutic quality of the relationship between therapist and client. This quality involves the fostering in the client of a combination of feelings - of freedom, of a positive sense of self, and of empowerment The therapist provides the basic therapeutic attitudes of congruence, acceptance and empathy. He combines these in his way of being, with non-directiveness - the absence of directive attitudes and behaviors that would determine the content of the client's expression, that would determine the form of the client's expression or determine the processes that take place in the client. This whole way of being produces a unique experience of an authority (the therapist, inherently an authority) consistently behaving in a non-authoritative manner. This abdication of the usual forms of authority carries meaning to most clients. It conveys that they are not being evaluated, not being supervised and not being controlled. That they are not being treated in these usual ways by an authority also carries the meaning that they are being treated with respect, are being trusted, and are free, to a great extent, in the relationship. As a consequence the relationship takes on the qualities referred to above, of freedom, of enhancement of the client's sense of self and sense of personal power. &lt;br /&gt; Client-centered therapy is a practice in which the hypothesis of the inherent growth principle is put into action. It is also a therapy wherein the theory of therapeutic attitudes as conditions for growth is taken as the basis for functioning with the client. It is also a therapy practice that is distinguishable by the form that it usually takes (or the form it reverts to if other forms come into play) - the empathic understanding response process. It is also a therapy which emphasizes non-directiveness and wherein this principle is maximized in the relation with the client. All together, these features distinguish client-centered therapy from other extant and possible person-centered therapies. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;Client-Centered Therapy - What is it not?&lt;br /&gt;In the world of psychotherapeutic practice client-centered therapy is not many things. The following list of things it is not will be limited, however, to those things it is sometimes thought to be by people who have a familiarity with the approach. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;1. Client-centered therapy is not the technique of "reflection of feeling" or making "empathic understanding responses". Any outward form of an art (and therapy is an art) may be looked at as a technique. It may be useful to look at the reflection or empathic understanding responses from the point of view of technique but this should be understood as an abstraction and contrary to the spirit of their actual production. Only if empathic understanding responses, (or any other types of response used in the context oclient centereded therapy), are used as expression of the therapist's genuine attitudes of congruence, acceptance and empathic understanding are they an expression of client-centered therapy. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;2. Client-centered therapy is not identical with the empathic understanding response process. This is so even though the process is the salient form of interaction in relationship of client and therapist and even though this form is one of the identifying features of client-centered therapy. Empathic understanding response process (EURP) is not identical with the total therapy for three main reasons. First, the functions of the therapist are more than the EURP. The therapist's adaptation to the individual client as a person in a concrete relationship situation requires the application of the hypothesis and the therapeutic conditions in many ways, including the set up of the therapy, the adjustments in language for the sake of mutual understanding, and the social aspects of the therapy situation. &lt;br /&gt; Second, the EURP is an optimal process, as a means to express empathic understanding and express the other therapeutic attitudes to the client, for most clients who choose to engage in therapy and wish to talk about themselves and their problems. But client-centered therapy is not limited to this population of clients. The realization of the theory of therapy with clients who do not choose therapy, or clients who are unable to talk about themselves, or clients whose illness or defects distort their relation to reality or to a relationship, may require forms of interaction which appear quite different from empathic understanding response process. &lt;br /&gt; Third, there are, in the usual therapy situation when EURP is the salient form, often other forms of interaction which occur in the practice. These forms, such as answering questions, giving explanations, shaping experiments for the client to try, etc., occur in and may be an integral part of a particular therapy relationship. These forms occur in client-centered therapy, however, only when they are requested by the client or when they become the way to be with the client that gets clarified out of expressed needs or desires of the client. If forms of interaction other than EURP occur in a particular client-centered relation, the way they are expressed or done is shaped by the belief in the growth principle, the presence of the therapeutic attitudes in the therapist and the non-directiveness of the therapist. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;3. Client-centered therapy is not based on a belief in any particular therapeutic process occurring in the client. Even if it were to be shown that the most therapeutic process in clients is a particular way of expressing the self, or a particular way of relating expression to inner experience, or particular feelings developing-toward the therapist, or a particular pattern of insights, or any other idea about how the client should act or feel or express - as the maximally therapeutic way - (and nothing of the sort has been shown so far), client-centered therapy would remain non-directive and open to the process that emerged in the client and would not involve trying to influence that process. &lt;br /&gt; It should be obvious, that to hold the view that a particular way of functioning by the client in the therapy relation is the way to make happen would necessarily involve some form of directiveness and be inconsistent with the basic conception of client-centered therapy. Given the premises of client-centered therapy, it is not possible to justify directiveness regardless of the advantages that might derive from directiveness in a particular instance. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;4. Client-centered therapy does not excessively restrict the therapist's resourcefulness as a helper. This is the case in two different ways. First, within the framework of client-centered therapy as defined above, it is possible for therapists, depending upon their talents and the psychotechnologies they have learned, and if they are so inclined, to utilize techniques identified with other types of therapy. Techniques of, for example, behavioral therapy, cognitive therapy, gestalt therapy, hypnosis, focusing, relaxation, meditation, etc., may be brought into the context of ongoing client-centered therapy. But - and this is a restriction the client-centered therapy would bring these in only at the request of the client or when the interaction brings out in the client an awareness of needs that might be met by such techniques. The client- entered therapist does not, as said before, have any convictions prior to the therapy about what process in the client, or what ways of helping, a client may need. These techniques and psychotechnologies may, then, be incorporated into a specific course of client centered therapy, as long as the therapist is not imposing them and the client is given control of the occasions and limits on their use. &lt;br /&gt; The second way the therapist is not restricted in the forms of help that may be given to the client is that the client-centered therapist may serve as a source of information about other therapies or treatments and as the person who helps the client utilize the therapies or treatments provided by others. Sometimes helping the client utilize other therapies means minimizing their damage to the client that takes place as they are benefiting him. Until other helpers - physicians, psychological and behavioral therapists, psychopharmacologists, etc., are, themselves, person-centered it remains the case that many of these experts violate the self-regard or the autonomy of their patients and clients. &lt;br /&gt; The client-centered therapist performs a crucial service in maintaining the basic client-centered therapeutic relation while his client goes through various treatments and therapies. These treatments may, in their specifics, be helpful to the client - even necessary - for his well-being. But without the grounding in the client-centered relation the client may be totally unable to use the services of these experts, or may be hurt or damaged in the process. &lt;br /&gt; In the same way that the nature of client-centered therapy, in providing optimal conditions for growth and change, facilitates the client's constructive experience of, and way of relating to, his world, it also facilitates the client's strength, confidence and good judgement in utilizing the resources of the world, including its myriad therapies, treatments and educational and remedial resources. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;5. Client-centered therapy is not inhibiting or restrictive to the natural personality of the therapist. It is true that the person who has strong tendencies to control others or to dominate others is not likely to take on client centered therapy as his way of working But if the basic person-centered values feel right to the therapist, the development of its disciplines will tend to feel self-realizing, not self-restricting~ Also, within the framework of client centered therapy there is great freedom for individual personalities. The therapeutic attitudinal condition of congruence the realness of the therapist, the avoidance of a role fosters the development of individuality (and the client's perception of that individuality) in the therapist's presence with the client. &lt;br /&gt; There is a marked similarity among client-centered therapists in their shared values and in the salient form of the therapeutic relation - the empathic understanding response process. Within that form, however, the unique mind and experience of a therapist shapes his empathic grasp of the client's presented experience and shapes the specific responses that are expressed to the client. &lt;br /&gt; Individuality is also expressed in the extent of personal openness and the qualities brought out in self-disclosures when they are in answer to personal questions by the client or when they are an expression of congruence. &lt;br /&gt; The natural personality of the therapist is generally enhanced and developed by the practice of client-centered therapy itself. The practice requires the development of the attitudinal conditions in relation to clients. In this development, for that context, the client-centered therapist tends to develop those qualities towards himself and is, thereby self-therapeutic and self-fostering of his own individuality. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;6. Client-centered therapy is not based simply on what works. It is based on what works within the parameters of what expresses and maintains the client's experience of the attitudinal conditions and of the therapist's non-directiveness and does not contradict the presence of these conditions. If what works also jeopardizes the client's sense of safety and freedom, or undermines the client's self-regard, his feelings of confidence in himself, or his sense of autonomy, then what works in those cases is not sufficient to justify employing it. &lt;br /&gt; The achievement of insights, or the reduction of specific symptoms, in client-centered therapy, is only considered therapeutic if it is in the context of the larger perspective of preserving the therapeutic attitudinal qualities of the relationship perceived by the client. [2] &lt;br /&gt; Client-centered therapy stems from ethical values and beliefs, even though they are held with the reservation that they are hypotheses. These values assert respect for the individual person and the belief that unconditional caring for the person is constructive for the person and also for the social milieu of the person. Whatever scientific support there may be for the client-centered theory of therapy - and there is considerable support for it (Patterson, 1984), the science is not the start of the practice for the practitioner. It simply gives support for where we place our faith. Because no-one knows the truth about therapy and no-one knows what is right. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;[2] This statement is from the perspective of the client-centered therapist not the client. The client is the judge, for himself, of whether or not any therapy or treatment or technique is therapeutic for him, and of whether or not the benefits he has received outweigh what he may have suffered. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Presented at the First Annual Meeting of the Association for the Development of the Person-Centered Approach which met in Chicago, Illinois at International House on the University of Chicago Campus September 3 - 7, 1986.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-6265682953879067850?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/6265682953879067850/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=6265682953879067850' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/6265682953879067850'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/6265682953879067850'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/what-is-client-centered-therapy-what-is.html' title='What is Client Centered Therapy?

Berbanding dengan pelajar perempuan, pelajar lelaki tidak berminat menemui kaunselor kerana mereka tidak boleh menerima hakikat mereka lemah dan mempunyai masalah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Ego mereka tinggi walaupun pada hakikatnya mereka takut mengakui kelemahan, berbanding pelajar perempuan yang berani berkongsi masalah,'' tegasnya. Sehubungan dengan itu, menurut beliau pelajar lelaki kini perlu diberi keutamaan untuk mendapatkan kaunseling kerana mereka menghadapi banyak cabaran sama ada semasa di bangku sekolah atau di IPT. "Banyak kajian yang dijalankan menunjukkan prestasi pelajar lelaki lemah sejak di sekolah menengah berbanding pelajar perempuan,'' katanya. Ini kerana katanya, pelajar lelaki mempunyai banyak 'cabang' yang diceburi semasa di sekolah seperti kegiatan sukan dan rakan-rakan di luar waktu sekolah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Walaupun kegiatan bersukan itu baik tetapi mereka tidak pandai menyeimbangkan kegiatan tersebut dengan akademik masing-masing,'' katanya. Itulah sebabnya menurut Dr. Abdul Halim perlunya pelajar berkenaan berbincang bagi mencari keseimbangan dalam kedua-dua bidang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Selain rakan sebaya, guru kaunseling atau kaunselor yang diiktiraf boleh menolong mereka,'' katanya. Dalam pada itu katanya, masalah tidak mempercayai kaunselor memang wujud di kalangan pelajar namun perkara tersebut dapat diatasi apabila diberi keyakinan oleh pihak sekolah, kaunselor dan rakan yang pernah melaluinya. Beliau menegaskan, mana-mana kaunselor terikat dengan kod etika termasuklah kerahsiaan maklumat. Justeru itu, para pelajar tidak perlu bimbang kerana masalah mereka hanya dikongsi antara pelajar dengan kaunselor sahaja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artikel ini dipetik daripda Utusan Malaysia Online.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-866956725585114252?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/866956725585114252/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=866956725585114252' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/866956725585114252'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/866956725585114252'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/ego-pelajar-lelaki-tebal.html' title='EGO PELAJAR LELAKI TEBAL'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SIMdoUHE2lI/AAAAAAAAAJw/596hysQN2so/s72-c/gambar+sony+erikson+367.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-850627669508806412</id><published>2008-07-18T05:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:49:45.053-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Drug Counseling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Penyalahgunaan Dadah'/><title type='text'>CHASING THE HIGH</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SL4qNtwOYtI/AAAAAAAAAQY/mB5fjzp6AKU/s1600-h/Picture+093.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SL4qNtwOYtI/AAAAAAAAAQY/mB5fjzp6AKU/s320/Picture+093.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241673431414366930" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chasing the High: A Firsthand Account of One Young Person's Experience with Substance Abuse.

From a harrowing night on a rooftop, gravely ill and in withdrawal, Keegan tracks back through his young-adult years spent addicted to drugs, primarily heroin. Now clean and sober in his early thirties, Keegan remembers with dark honesty his slide from experimentation to addiction. This title is more than just a memoir, however. Coauthored with a psychiatrist and produced in conjunction with the Adolescent Mental Health Initiative, the book provides a wealth of up-to-date information about the neurobiology of addiction and explains why teens are at a higher risk for drug abuse than are adults. Detailed descriptions of rehab and recovery approaches and lists of resources for further help are also included, while short excerpts from other addiction memoirs add to Keegan's wrenching story. Teens struggling with addiction are directly addressed, but the publisher is marketing the book to the adults in their lives who are trying to help them. -Gillian Engberg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YA/S: Teens who suffer from addiction will find inspiration and resources here.

Di peringkat permulaan, kemungkinan kaunselor berasa gugup sekiranya mangsa terdiri daripada gender yang berlainan.&lt;br /&gt;Kedudukan umur kaunselor dengan klien serta taraf perkahwinan juga akan memberi kesan kepada proses rawatan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katanya, kaunseling terhadap mangsa salah laku seksual merupakan satu bidang khusus yang memerlukan latihan dan kemahiran tambahan. Sekiranya boleh, kaunselor sendiri telah berumah tangga dan matang dalam perkara seks dalam rumah tangga. ``Bidang kaunseling penting terutamanya pada hari ini kerana jumlah kes salah laku yang semakin meningkat dan kaunselor sendiri tidak dapat mengelakkan diri daripada berhadapan dengan kes seperti itu,'' katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sementara itu, Fatimah mengakui, salah laku seks sukar untuk ditakrifkan. &lt;br /&gt;``Antara perkara-perkara yang boleh dianggap sebagai salah laku seks ialah sentuhan yang berniat serong dan berkecenderungan mencapai maksud seks terutama di tempat sulit. ``Ini termasuklah sentuhan daripada ibu bapa sendiri atau keluarga terdekat atau orang yang tinggal serumah,'' jelasnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turut dikategorikan ialah perbuatan memaksa melakukan sesuatu untuk mencapai kehendak seks, melakukan hubungan seksual dengan pasangan yang sah di luar norma kehidupan.Manakala jenis salah laku seksual yang berlaku pula melibatkan seks sadis, rogol, rogol bagi mereka telah berkahwin dan exploitasi seksual. Salah laku seksual dalam keluarga katanya, boleh berlaku antara pasangan suami isteri, antara anak-anak dalam satu keluarga atau yang menetap dalam satu rumah dan antara ketua keluarga dengan ahli keluarga termasuk anak sendiri.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beberapa faktor telah dikenalpasti penyebab salah laku seks di kalangan masyarakat.&lt;br /&gt;Ini termasuklah pengaruh personaliti terutama mereka yang mempunyai perasaan rendah diri, dendam dan marah yang telah lama tersimpan terhadap ibu bapa, pengaruh budaya seks dan nilai hidup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Menurut Dr. Fatimah mangsa tidak hanya menghadapi kesan dalam jangka masa pendek tetapi juga boleh membawa kesan berpanjangan dalam kehidupan. ``Mangsa biasanya sentiasa berada dalam ketakutan, marah dan berdendam malah mendorong mereka melibatkan diri dengan penyalahgunaan dadah dan sebagainya,'' ujarnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katanya, selain pengetahuan asas mengenai tingkah laku seksiologi, pengetahuan dan kemahiran mengendalikan kes trauma juga diperlukan oleh kaunselor&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-4259912134117990034?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/4259912134117990034/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=4259912134117990034' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4259912134117990034'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4259912134117990034'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/kaunseling-perlu-dibudayakan-dalam.html' title='Kaunseling perlu dibudayakan dalam masyarakat'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-5693814349970616161</id><published>2008-07-17T17:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:50:16.717-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Person Centered Therapy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>The Narcisistic Mistakes</title><content type='html'>T h e   N a r c i s s i s t i c   M i s t a k e ©&lt;br /&gt;L o v e   I t   a n d   L e a v e   I t&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ernest E.

We heard  “Do your own thing.”  “If it feels good, do it.”  We read the Gestalt prayer by Fritz Perls, “I do my thing, you do yours, if we meet it is wonderful, if not, it can’t be helped.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The representative rubric of this “me-ism” was “Here’s what I want, to Hell with what you want.”  There was a reaction against this error.  It was seen as destructive and anti-community.  Actually it could have been a building block for a new kind of community.  It was not recognized as such.  It was seen as a threat.  As a result, there was a massive retreat to what was before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Old Paradigm [European]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What was before?  There existed a social paradigm, which we inherited from Europe.  Jean Jacques Rousseau wrote of a Social Contract in which the individual gave up something of him or herself in exchange for the protections of society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hegel in his dialectic wrote of his “syntheses” in which the fullest expression of the self was service to the state.  A lie.  We all saw what happened to the individual in such an epistemology.  You can imagine the delight of Hitler and Lenin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The representative rubric was “I will give up what I want for the good of others.”  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Paradigm&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a new paradigm, one that is built on narcissism and goes beyond it.  Its rubric is  “Here’s what I want, what do you want?”  -Or- What do you want?  here’s what I want.”  This model asks the individual to come, not with diminished capacity from giving up of the self, but with full functionality.  The gifts available from such fully functioning people are of a higher order, and they are free.  They don’t need something in return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soren Kierkegaard describes such a concept of such a self in counterpoint to Hegel’s dialectic.  SK denies a synthesis, a harmonious resolution of eternally hostile opposites.  For example, Eternal vs. Temporal,  Infinite vs. Finite,  Possible vs. Necessary.  His famous quote is, “The self is a relation (to both of the eternally hostile opposites) which relates to itself and to that which established it.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Full functionality is also addressed by Carl Rogers.  The skills of Person Centered Approach are necessary and sufficient for the conduct of healthy relationships in this new social paradigm.  When persons use these skills, at will, on their own behalf, this community develops naturally.  When persons do not use these skills, this community does not develop.  When people are encouraged, maybe urged, to use these skills, then an oppressive community develops.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As most people experimented with and retreated from narcissism as too threatening, the potential exists to grow this anomaly into a more satisfying social group, large or small.   One of the measures of success of a group is the satisfaction of the members.  In the old paradigm, the group is seen as responsible.  In the new, the individual eagerly seeks this responsibility.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-5693814349970616161?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/5693814349970616161/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=5693814349970616161' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/5693814349970616161'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/5693814349970616161'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/narcisistic-mistakes.html' title='The Narcisistic Mistakes'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4490272388915756402</id><published>2008-07-17T08:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-17T08:49:04.477-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Book Abstract'/><title type='text'>Ulasan Buku Psikologi Industri dan Organisasi</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SNEmOx72RYI/AAAAAAAAAVw/ClJKzurPU30/s1600-h/psiko+industri+2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SNEmOx72RYI/AAAAAAAAAVw/ClJKzurPU30/s400/psiko+industri+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247017076227720578" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Psikologi Industri &amp; Organisasi Jilid Kedua&lt;br /&gt;Pengarang: Ishak bin Mad Shah&lt;br /&gt;o 2004 &lt;br /&gt;o ISBN 983-52-0336-9 &lt;br /&gt;o 244 muka surat &lt;br /&gt;o RM 35.00 &lt;br /&gt;o Penerbit UTM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sinopsis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buku ini adalah lanjutan daripada buku Pengenalan Psikologi Industri &amp; Organisasi.

HIV menyerang dan melemahkan sistem pertahanan semula jadi badan terhadap semua jenis jangkitan yang membawa kepada penyakit AIDS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Menurut kaunselor dan pensyarah Jabatan Kaunseling, Fakulti Pendidikan, Universiti Malaya, Dr. Haslee Sharil Lim Abdullah, seseorang pesakit akan melalui saat sukar bermula daripada ujian HIV dan persediaan psikologinya dalam menerima keputusan ujian tersebut.“Sebaik sahaja sah dijangkiti virus ini, pelbagai persoalan serta kebuntuan akan melanda diri pesakit.“Antara kesan psikologi yang akan dialami oleh pesakit ialah ketakutan tentang pelbagai perkara terutamanya penerimaan keluarga dan masyarakat,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagi seseorang yang menghidap AIDS, perkara utama yang paling ditakuti ialah menghadapi kematian, takut mati dalam keadaan berseorangan dan tidak dipedulikan, serta mati dalam keadaan yang menyakitkan. Beliau memberitahu, secara logiknya pesakit tidak akan mampu berdepan dengan kejutan berita yang diterima daripada doktor jika tidak membuat persediaan psikologi yang sebaiknya“Pesakit juga akan berhadapan dengan kebuntuan dan pelbagai persoalan seperti kerjaya, pandangan masyarakat dan perancangan kehidupan.“Selain itu, pesakit juga akan mengalami perasaan seperti kehilangan daya tarikan fizikal, perhubungan seksual, kehilangan cita-cita, status dalam masyarakat, kestabilan kewangan dan kehilangan kasih sayang orang-orang yang disayangi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Di samping itu, mereka juga hilang kawalan dalam kehidupan peribadi, hilang keyakinan diri dan terpaksa bergantung kepada orang lain. Mereka juga akan meratapi segala kehilangan tersebut.“Akan wujud juga perasaan bersalah kerana ada kemungkinan mereka telah menjangkiti orang lain. Selain itu, timbul perasaan insaf terhadap perbuatan salah yang telah dilakukan,” ujarnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ini seterusnya akan menyebabkan pesakit berasa bersalah kerana menyebabkan orang lain bersedih atas apa yang berlaku terutama kepada isteri dan anak-anak.Dr. Haslee memberitahu, kesan psikologi lain adalah seperti berasa tertekan. Selain itu, ada juga pesakit yang menafikan hakikat dia telah dijangkiti virus HIV. Pada peringkat awal diagnosis, kegelisahan juga akan melanda diri pesakit kerana pelbagai perkara perlu difikirkan dan banyak perubahan juga perlu dilakukan.Kemarahan juga akan wujud dan ia merupakan salah satu kesan psikologi yang dialami oleh pesakit sebaik sahaja dijangkiti HIV/AIDS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ia adalah sebagai helah bela diri pesakit daripada menyalahkan diri sendiri dan melepaskan kemarahan kepada orang lain.“Akibat daripada pemikiran dan perasaan pesakit, mereka adakalanya akan bertindak di luar batasan.“Ada juga yang akan cuba membunuh diri atau terfikir untuk membunuh diri kerana tidak mahu menanggung malu jika orang lain tahu mengenainya,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beliau menjelaskan, penghargaan kendiri atau keyakinan diri pesakit juga rendah apabila mengenangkan penyisihan oleh keluarga dan masyarakat.“Sehingga satu tahap, pesakit akan mengalami situasi dinamakan hypocondria. “Seringkali pesakit ini memikirkan mengenai kehilangan, kesepian dan perasaan berdosa di atas segala apa yang telah dilakukan menyebabkan mereka kurang menitik beratkan langkah-langkah penjagaan kesihatan dan kerohanian mereka,” ujarnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Disinilah perkhidmatan kaunseling memainkan peranan yang penting dalam membantu klien HIV/ AIDS agar tabah mengharungi kehidupan setelah disahkan positif.“Dalam program ini, kaunselor memberi maklumat tentang kesan HIV/AIDS, pemindahan virus dan langkah-langkah pencegahan yang perlu diambil untuk mengelakkan jangkitan.“Mereka juga diberi panduan yang jelas tentang cara-cara penggunaan kondom yang betul serta diadakan sesi main peranan untuk menerangkan langkah-langkah pencegahan,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Melihat kepada praktik kaunselor terlatih di Barat, kaunselor tidak boleh segan silu dan hanya bercakap secara teori sahaja.Namun begitu, memandangkan di dalam masyarakat negara ini di mana perkara yang berkaitan dengan perhubungan suami isteri tidak dibincangkan secara terbuka, maka langkah ini agak sukar untuk dijalankan.“Dalam perhubungan suami isteri, kaunseling keluarga akan disarankan kepada pasangan tersebut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Selain itu, kaunselor yang berhadapan dengan pesakit yang mempunyai penyakit serius perlu mempunyai pengetahuan yang luas tentang penyakit tersebut, prosedur merawat, kaedah mengendalikan kesan psikologi yang dialami oleh pesakit dan juga mampu membantu pesakit dengan seikhlas hati,” jelasnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalam manual yang disediakan oleh Kementerian Kesihatan berkaitan kaunseling HIV/AIDS, dinyatakan bahawa kaunseling tersebut adalah satu proses komunikasi dan dialog antara kaunselor terlatih dan klien yang menghadapi masalah berkaitan dengannya. Ia juga satu proses membantu klien mengadaptasikan diri dengan masalah tersebut. Sementara itu, menurut Dr. Haslee, tahap pertama praujian kaunseling yang selalu dijalankan ialah ujian HIV/AIDS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Dinyatakan dalam urusan pengujian dan makluman keputusan kepada pesakit, kaunselor juga berperanan penting.“Ini kerana HIV dan AIDS akan memberikan satu kesan psikologi sosial kepada pesakit, keluarganya dan masyarakat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Tahap kedua bagi pesakit HIV ialah menjalankan sesi ‘selepas ujian kaunseling’ yang dijalankan oleh kaunselor yang sama menjalankan ‘praujian kaunseling’.“Dalam sesi ini, klien akan diberi kefahaman tentang keputusan ujian, ruang untuk meluahkan perasaan seperti marah, penafian, putus asa, kebisuan dan sebagainya,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;Tambahnya, kaunseling untuk pesakit AIDS agak berbeza dengan pesakit HIV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Kaunseling untuk klien AIDS lebih kepada membuat persiapan diri klien dalam proses menghadapi kematian serta beberapa unfinished business antara pesakit dan keluarganya.“Ini bermakna pesakit akan dibimbing dan digalakkan untuk menyelesaikan kes-kes yang belum selesai semasa hayatnya.“Dalam beberapa kes juga memerlukan kaunselor berjumpa dengan penjaga kepada pesakit AIDS dalam usaha membantu mereka menghadapi sisa-sisa kehidupan dengan lebih berkualiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Terapi kaunseling penting untuk memastikan mereka dapat menjalankan aktiviti seperti orang lain kerana ada jangka hayat hidup pembawa HIV mungkin akan panjang,” katanya.Dalam erti kata lain, kaunseling dapat membawa pesakit makna kehidupan dan tujuan hidup dapat dibincang untuk membantu meningkatkan harga diri serta meredakan tekanan pesakit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Begitu juga mereka yang menghidap AIDS dan bakal melalui saat-saat akhir hidupnya, mereka dibantu mendekati Tuhan, reda atas apa yang ditakdirkan, memastikan keluarga menerima pesakit dan pesakit dapat meninggal dunia dalam keadaan yang tenang,” jelasnya.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-3037843944942405196?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/3037843944942405196/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=3037843944942405196' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/3037843944942405196'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/3037843944942405196'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/kaunseling-hiv.html' title='Kaunseling HIV'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4746505521895591639</id><published>2008-07-14T20:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:50:52.417-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>Perbezaan Psikologi Kaunseling dan Klinikal</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKT9yySLSfI/AAAAAAAAAMw/YAVdEJsgEak/s1600-h/gambar+konvo+ukm+048.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKT9yySLSfI/AAAAAAAAAMw/YAVdEJsgEak/s200/gambar+konvo+ukm+048.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234587715844655602" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Psikologi Klinikal dan Psikologi Kaunseling.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Majoriti pelajar-pelajar bidang psikologi yang memohon memasuki pusat pengajian siswazah (ijazah kedoktoran) di universiti-universiti di Amerika Syarikat amat berminat dengan kerja-kerja klinikal. Dan adalah dianggarkan hampir separuh daripada ijazah lanjutan dalam bidang psikologi yang di anugerahkan adalah dalam sub bidang klinikal dan kaunseling. (Mayne, Norcross, Sayette, 2000). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Persoalan utama yang sering timbul adalah “ apakah perbezaan antara bidang psikologi klinikal dan juga psikologi kaunseling?”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artikel ini akan cuba menyingkap persamaan dan perbezaan yang wujud di antara kedua-dua bidang tersebut berdasarkan kajian-kajian yang telah dilakukan. Artikel ini juga diharapkan dapat merungkai persoalan-persoalan yang berkaitan melalui pilihan maklumat-maklumat yang disediakan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Apakah Persamaan yang wujud antara kedua-dua bidang ini?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perbezaan yang wujud antara bidang psikologi klinikal dan psikologi kaunseling semakin berkurangan sejak akhir-akhir ini. Ini menjurus kepada cadangan bahawa kedua-kedua bidang ini seharusnya digabungkan.  Di Amerika Syarikat, graduan kedoktoran dalam bidang klinikal dan kaunseling mempunyai faedah professional yang sama. Misalnya dalam mendapatkan pelesenan, praktis persendirian, dan juga kemudahan insurans. APA American Psychological Association pula menggunapakai senarai internships bagi kedua-dua sub bidang psikologi klinikal dan juga kaunseling kepada pelatih-pelatihnya. Hanya terdapat beberapa perbezaan yang minor di antara kedua-dua nya. (Gaddy, Charlotte-Swilley, Nelson &amp; Reich, 1995).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Perbezaan –perbezaan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terdapat beberapa perbezaan yang dikategorikan sperti berikut:&lt;br /&gt;Program-program kedoktoran dalam sub bidang psikologi klinikal yang ditawarkan di universiti di Amerika Syarikat adalah jauh melebihi sub bidang psikologi kaunseling. Dalam tahun 1999, terdapat hampir 194 program kedoktoran dalam bidang psikologi klinikal yang diakreditasikan oleh APA (American Psychological Association) berbanding dengan hanya 64 program kedoktoran dalam sub bidang psikologi kaunseling yang telah di akreditasikan oleh APA.  Program klinikal mengeluarkan hampir 2000 ijazah kedoktoran setahun berbanding psoikologi kaunseling hanya 500 ijazah di peringkat kedoktoran yang dikeluarkan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lokasi &lt;br /&gt;Dari segi lokasi, program psikologi klinikal ditawarkan di fakulti dan jabatan-jabatan psikologi manakala program kaunseling ditawarkan di pelbagai fakulti dan jabatan yang berasaingan di universiti-universiti di Amerika Syarikat. DAlam sebuah tinjauan yang dilakukan oleh APA mendapati 18% daripada program-program psikologi kaunseling ditawarkan di fakulti sains dan sastera, 75% ditawarkan di fakulti pendidikan dan hanya 6% ditawarkan di jabatan-jabatan yang berasingan. (Woerheide, 1996). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aktiviti profesional  &lt;br /&gt;Aktiviti seharian ahli psikologi klinikal dan psikologi kaunseling juga adalah serupa. Mereka menghabiskan hamper keselurahan masa dengan melakukan psikoterapi, melatih, menjalankan penyelidikan dan melakukan penyeliaan. (Mayne et al., 2000). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Orientasi teoretikal&lt;br /&gt;Dalam sebuah kajian yang dilakukan oleh Bechtoldt (2000), terhadap orientasi teoretikal yang digunapakai dan juga seting pekerjaan berdasarkan divisyen APA iaitu Div. 12 (klinikal) dan Div. 17 (kaunseling), dapat dirumuskan bahawa 29% daripada kedua-dua divisyen menggunapakai orientasi intergratif dan eklektik, dan 26% menggunakan orientasi kognitif dalam rawatan terhadap klien mereka. Walaubagaimanapun kajian juga mendapati bahawa ahli klinikal seringkali menggunakan pendekatan ketingkahlakuan (behaviorial) dan juga psikoanalitik, manakala ahli psikologi kaunseling menggunakan pendekatan humanistik dan juga pemusatan klien (client –centered). (Norcross, 2000).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bidang-bidang kajian&lt;br /&gt;Bidang-bidang kajian yang seringkali di lakukan oleh kedua-dua sub idang psikologi klinikal dan juga kaunseling juga adalah hamper sama. Sebagai contoh kajian mengenai ketingkahlakuan / psikologi kesihatan, kajian-kajian mengenai golongan minority dan silang budaya, proses dan hasilan psikoterapi, terapi dan penyelidikan keluarga, kanak-kanak, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, eating disorders. Secara terperincinya, program penyelidikan dalam program psikologi kaunseling lebih menumpukan terhadap bidang-bidang seperti perbezaan gender, homoseksualiti, kajian wanita, golongan minority / silang budaya, dan juga isu-isu professional seperti etika dan latihan professional. Manakala kajian-kajian yang srring dilakukan oleh ahli klinikal pula lebih menumpukan terhadap bidang-bidang psikopatologi seperti ADHD(attention deficit hyperactivity disorders), autisme, kecelaruan afektif, kecelaruan persoanliti, PTSD, skizofrenia dan lain-lain. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Implikasi &lt;br /&gt;Kedua-dua bidang ini adalah merupakan bidang yang paling popular dalam psikologi. Ahli psikologi klinikal dan ahli psikologi kaunseling berurusan dengan aspek-aspek sebab dan akibat (cause and effect), pencegahan (prevention), diagnosis, dan rawatan terhadap individu yang mempunyai masalah psikologikal. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aktiviti-aktiviti ahli psikologi kaunseling sering bertindanan dengan ahli klinikal psikologi. Secara tradisinya, ahli psikologi kaunseling memberikan perkhidmatan kepada klien yang normal ataupun klien yang mengalami gangguan penyesuaian yang kurang berat. Terapi yang sering digunakan adalah melalui pendekatan kelompok dan juga individu. Kaedah penaksiran yang digunakan adalah melalui temuduga, dan juga melalui ujian-ujian, seperti penaksiran kebolehan, ujian personaliti, ujian minat kerjaya dan ujian-ujian bakat. Secara tradisinya ahli psikologi kaunseling terlibat menyediakan perkhidmatan kaunseling dalam pendidikan dan juga kerjaya.   Tetapi kini, ramai pula yang mula menggunakan pendekatan kognitif dan juga biofeedback dalam terapi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kerjaya ahli psikologi kaunseling secara tradisinya banyak didapati di setting pendidikan terutamanya di kolej-kolej dan universiti. Walaubagaimanapun, ahli psikologi kaunseling seperti juga ahli klinikal kaunseling bekerja di seting kesihatan seperti hospital, pusat pemulihan, klinik kesihatan mental dan juga di sektor perindustrian. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secara umumnya, ahli psikologi kaunseling melakukan aktiviti-aktiviti berikut:&lt;br /&gt;a. Rawatan pencegahan&lt;br /&gt;b. Perundingan / konsultasi&lt;br /&gt;c. Pembangunan program-program outreach&lt;br /&gt;d. Kaunseling kerjaya / vokasional&lt;br /&gt;e. Kaunseling motivasi &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walaubagaimanapun, kini kaunselor dan ahli psikologi kaunseling lebih memberikan perkhidmatan psikoterapi yang secara tradisinya adalah dalam bidang kuasa ahli psikologi klinikal. Mereka kurang berminat memberikan khidmat kaunseling kerjaya dan vokasional. (Fitzgerald &amp; Osipow). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walaupun terdapat banyak persamaan di antara bidang kaunseling dan klinikal psikologi, terdapat juga perbezaan yang ketara di antara kedua-dua bidang ini. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clinical Psychologists&lt;br /&gt;Bagi mereka yang melibatkan diri dalam bidang psikologi klinikal pula, mereka perlu menilai dan merawat pesakit yang mengalami masalah psikologi.&lt;br /&gt;Mereka menggunakan pelbagai kaedah berkaitan ilmu psikologi dengan memberi kaunseling dan terapi.&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu, ahli psikologi klinikal sentiasa bekerjasama dengan doktor, ahli psikiatri dan kakitangan perubatan dalam menangani masalah pesakit.&lt;br /&gt;Secara tipikalnya, ahli klinikal merawat klien atau individu yang mengalami gangguan kecelaruan yang lebih tinggi berbanding dengan ahli psikologi kaunseling. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rumusan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perbezaan di antara psikologi klinikal dan psikologi kaunseling semakin berkurangan dari semasa ke semasa sejak tahun-tahun kebelakangan ini. Ada juga yang berpendapat bahawa kedua-dua bidang ini harus bergabung. Graduan diperingkat pasca siswazah dalam kedua bidang tersebut mempunyai kepentingan yang hampir sama seperti mendapatkan pelesenan, praktis persendirian, dan juga kemudahan insuran.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Aktiviti- harian yang dijalankan oleh kedua-dua professional ini juga hampir serupa. Mereka menghabiskan hampir keseluruhan masa dengan memberikan psikoterapi, pendidikan, penyelidikan, dan juga penyeliaan ( Mayne et. Al, 2000). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Namun begitu, perbezaan ketara antara kedua-dua profesion ini dilihat dari segi jenis klien yang dihadapi, pendekatan-pendekatan dan teori yang digunapakai. Ahli klinikal bekerja dengan indidivu yang mempunyai masalah psikopatologi dan kebanyakan daripada mereka ini dilatih untuk menggunakan kaedah penaksiran individu melalui teknik-teknik projektif. Ahli psikologi kaunseling pula bekerja dengan individu atau masyarakat yang lebih waras dan matang. Mereka ini banyak memberikan perkhidmatan penaksiran dalam kerjaya dan vokasional individu. (Brems &amp; Johnsons).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daripada kajian-kajian lepas yang dilakukan di Amerika Syarikat, dapatan kajian yang diperolehi menggambarkan bahawa ahli klinikal dan ahli psikologi kaunseling berkerja di seting pekerjaan yang sama seperti di pusat-pusat pemulihan, perkhidmatan perundingan, dan juga praktis persendirian. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Program –program psikologi kaunseling lebih sesuai kepada mereka yang berminat dengan proses-proses kerjaya dan vokasional, kepelbagaian etnik, dan latihan professional.   Manakala program klinikal pula lebih sesuai kepada mereka yang berminat dalam psikopatologi dan juga tingkahlaku kesihatan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Artikel ini diterjemahkan dari Karya Asal oleh Norcross J.C (2000) Clinical versus Counseling Psychology: Whats the Difference?. &lt;br /&gt;oleh Abd.

Ia sikap yang tidak baik dan jika dibiarkan boleh terbawa-bawa hingga dewasa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ada banyak perkara menyebabkan kanak-kanak menipu. Misalnya, dia melakukan perkara yang tidak disukai ibu bapa. Justeru, bagi mengelak dimarahi, kanak-kanak lebih rela menipu. Kanak-kanak membentuk sikap dan peribadinya menerusi pemerhatian. Kadangkala kanak-kanak menipu kerana pengaruh kawasan atau suasana dia dibesarkan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pensyarah Kanan, Jabatan Psikologi Pendidikan dan Kaunseling, Fakulti Pendidikan Universiti Malaya (UM), Dr Mariani Md Noor, berkata sikap ibu bapa yang banyak memberi jawapan ‘tidak’ kepada setiap permintaan anak tanpa memberi alasan logik menyebabkan kanak-kanak suka menipu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Mungkin mereka tidak faham mengapa ibu bapa menolak permintaan mereka. Justeru, mereka lebih teruja untuk terus melakukan perkara yang dilarang,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagaimanapun, katanya kadangkala ibu bapa memberi alasan yang mudah, misalnya jangan makan ais krim nanti demam. Jawapan itu terlalu mudah dan tidak jelas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Mungkin ibu bapa boleh kata, tidak boleh makan ais krim kerana proses membuatnya kotor atau tidak menggunakan air yang dimasak,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Mariani berkata, setiap alasan itu mesti rasional dan berdasarkan kefahaman kanak-kanak selain keupayaan dia berfikir. Jangan memberi alasan yang dia tidak faham.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu, arahan ibu bapa yang tidak konsisten juga menyebabkan kanak-kanak menipu. Misalnya, ibu bapa melarang dia merokok atau menonton televisyen hingga larut malam, sebaliknya ibu bapa pula yang merokok. Dalam konteks ini anak mudah keliru.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Mariani berkata, anak juga memerhati sikap adik beradik yang lebih tua. Mungkin abang dan kakaknya dapat mencapai sesuatu tanpa pengetahuan ibu bapa. Jadi dia pun turut terpengaruh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contoh mudah, ibu bapa mungkin tidak membenarkan anak bermain di jalan raya tetapi apabila ibu bapa keluar bekerja, mereka bermain juga di jalan raya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Pada kanak-kanak, menipu bukan sesuatu yang salah, sebaliknya mereka merasakan ia sebagai cara untuk memenuhi keinginan,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Mariani berkata, selain suasana di rumah, persekitaran di sekolah juga menggalakkan kanak-kanak menipu kerana terikut-ikut dengan kawan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Kanak-kanak belajar daripada proses peniruan. Mereka memiliki ‘absorb mind’, apa yang dilihatnya waktu kecil dan sepanjang proses pembesarannya. Ada sebahagian memori itu kekal dalam ingatannya untuk tempoh panjang. Pada waktu dan konteks yang sesuai, kanak-kanak akan menggunakannya,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beliau berkata, menipu harus dibezakan dengan berdalih. Berdalih atau beralasan selalunya membabitkan perkara yang munasabah dan boleh diterima akal. Bagaimanapun, menipu bermaksud mengatakan sesuatu yang tidak masuk akal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Sebagai ibu bapa, anda perlu dekati dan kenal pasti punca anak suka berbohong. Bagaimanapun, jangan dekati anak dengan cara yang keras jauh sekali mengugut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Mungkin anda terlalu marah dan menengking anak anda. Beri tahu mama kenapa abang tipu? Anak tidak akan memberitahu anda apa-apa. Bila anda ugut, cakap cepat kalau tidak ayah rotan, anak langsung tidak akan memberitahu anda apa-apapun,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Justeru, Dr Mariani berkata, dekati anak dengan lembut dan cuba cungkil rahsianya dengan cara bercerita mengapa dia menipu. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Kanak-kanak suka bercerita. Melalui cerita dia mudah meluahkan perasaannya. Dalam konteks ini, ibu bapa sepatutnya bersikap ‘autoritatif’ bukan ‘autoritarian,’,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagaimanapun, jika sikap anak yang suka menipu itu terbawa-bawa hingga awal remaja dan keterlaluan, dia perlu dirujuk kepada kaunselor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ibu bapa perlu peka pada perubahan anak. Jangan hanya memberi keperluan material saja sebaliknya psikologi dan sikap ambil tahu amat penting. Sikap suka menipu mesti dibendung kerana jika tidak ditegur kanak-kanak akan berasa dia betul,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katanya, secara umum, kanak-kanak mula menipu apabila usianya menjangkau lima tahun. Ketika itu, dia sudah boleh berfikir secara simbolik dan logik. Kadangkala ada juga kanak-kanak menipu apabila mula bersekolah dan bergaul dengan rakan sebaya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Mariani berkata, proses perkembangan kanak-kanak boleh dibahagikan kepada tiga peringkat. Daripada kosong hingga dua tahun (zaman awal kanak-kanak), dua hingga enam tahun (zaman kanak-kanak pertengahan) dan daripada enam hingga 11 tahun (zaman kanak-kanak akhir).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pada setiap peringkat usia, banyak pengalaman dan pemerhatian yang dikutip dan disimpan. Pada peringkat awal kanak-kanak, mereka banyak belajar daripada pemerhatian dan mula berinisiatif sendiri.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pada zaman kanak-kanak pertengahan, mereka mula menunjukkan sikap suka bersaing antara rakan sebaya dan selalu mahu menang. Justeru, jika kalah, dia mula berasa rendah diri dan akan berbuat sesuatu yang lebih baik untuk menang sekali gus mungkin menipu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sebagai contoh mungkin anda pernah mendengar perbualan kanak-kanak yang membanding-bandingkan siapa lebih hebat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Misalnya, saya ada banyak kereta mainan. Dibalas pula oleh kawannya saya lagi banyak. Bagaimanapun, kadangkala anak itu tiada kereta mainan pun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ibu bapa mungkin hanya kenal anaknya sebagai anak tetapi tidak mengenalinya sebagai rakan atau remaja. Justeru, ibu bapa perlu mengambil tahu mengenai perkembangan anak. Jika anak suka menipu tanya diri sendiri di mana silapnya didikan yang diberikan. Mungkin ibu bapa terlalu garang atau terlalu berlembut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Atau jika bukan ibu bapa puncanya, ambil tahu kawan-kawannya. Mungkin pergaulan dengan kawan-kawan seusia yang membuat dia menipu,” katanya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Mariani berkata, ibu bapa boleh mengetahui sama ada anak menipu tidak menerusi gerak gerinya. Apabila menipu, sikapnya akan berubah. Misalnya, dia kerap meminta wang membeli alat tulis tetapi alat tulisnya sentiasa ada dan anda membeli stok yang banyak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FAAKTA: Mengenai Menipu&lt;br /&gt;•  Kanak-kanak kecil tidak faham apa itu menipu.&lt;br /&gt;•  Apabila mula bersekolah, mereka mula memahami konsep betul dan salah atau adil.&lt;br /&gt;•  Kanak-kanak menipu kerana mahu sentiasa menang.&lt;br /&gt;•  Selalunya apabila semakin dewasa, dia akan meninggalkan tabiat menipu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mengapa kanak-kanak menipu?&lt;br /&gt;•  Untuk mendapat perhatian ibu bapa&lt;br /&gt;•  Kurang komunikasi&lt;br /&gt;•  Kurang kasih sayang&lt;br /&gt;•  Kurang pengiktirafan daripada ibu bapa&lt;br /&gt;•  Kurang penghargaan&lt;br /&gt;•  Kurang belaian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mengapa kemenangan sentiasa penting pada kanak-kanak?&lt;br /&gt;•  Kemenangan membuatkan mereka sentiasa ‘penting’ dan paling bagus antara rakan sebayanya. &lt;br /&gt;•  Ada kala kanak-kanak sukar untuk berdepan dengan kekalahan.&lt;br /&gt;•  Jika kanak-kanak tiada jati diri atau tertekan kerana apa saja sebab, kemenangan menyebabkan mereka berasa selesa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apa yang ibu bapa boleh buat jika anak menipu&lt;br /&gt;•  Beritahu dia apa yang dimaksudkan dengan menipu. Kanak-kanak kecil tidak faham dan tidak tahu menipu itu satu kesalahan. Bagaimanapun, apabila dia mula bersekolah, dia akan lebih mengetahui konsep betul, salah dan adil. Justeru, dia lebih memahami mengapa menipu itu satu kesalahan.&lt;br /&gt;•  Cari punca mengapa dia menipu. Mungkin ada perkara yang membuat dia tertekan hingga terpaksa menipu.&lt;br /&gt;•  Kanak-kanak bukanlah jahat jika dia menipu sebaliknya beritahu dia anda kecewa dengan sikapnya itu tetapi masih sayangkan dia. Bagaimanapun, anda masih di sisinya untuk membantu.&lt;br /&gt;•  Berikan contoh terbaik. Jika mendidik anak menonton televisyen hingga larut malam itu tidak elok, anda juga jangan lakukan.&lt;br /&gt;•  Bincang dengannya tekanan yang dihadapi sesama rakan sebaya. Mungkin persaingan sesama mereka membuatkan dia tertekan dan menipu.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-542594855105072896?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/542594855105072896/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=542594855105072896' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/542594855105072896'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/542594855105072896'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/bendung-anak-suka-menipu.html' title='Bendung Anak Suka Menipu'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SJ5BhzeDFYI/AAAAAAAAAKo/7MF3PRLn7YI/s72-c/gambar+sony+erikson+198.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4555954148668299306</id><published>2008-06-26T23:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:41.981-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Umum'/><title type='text'>PHD Registration</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SGSRUkZUfEI/AAAAAAAAAIs/NCNKV4idCr0/s1600-h/Picture+056.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216454050955164738" style="WIDTH: 341px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" height="240" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SGSRUkZUfEI/AAAAAAAAAIs/NCNKV4idCr0/s320/Picture+056.jpg" width="517" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pada 25 Jun yang lepas saya telah selamat mendaftar diri dalam program Pasca Siswazah Kdoktoran dalam bidang PSikologi Di UKM. Walaupun terpaksa menunggu lama dan beratur panjang kerana ramai yang datang pada hari tersebut, namun saya merasakan amat lega kerana kini saya bergelar calon Kedoktoron Psikologi. Sebenarnya dah lama saya mengimpikan peluang ini, namun alhamdulillah syukur ke hadrat illahi kerana saya akhirnya berjaya menamtkan Sarjana dan menyambung peringkat Phd Pula. Semua ini adalah berkat kesabaran dan dorongan dari Abah dan Mak serta Isteri dan anak yang disayangi. Insyaalah saya akan berusaha untuk bergelar Doktor (falsafah) sebelum mencecah umur 40'an. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Words Of Wisdom " There is no Royal Road To Success" &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-4555954148668299306?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/4555954148668299306/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=4555954148668299306' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4555954148668299306'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4555954148668299306'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/06/phd-registration.html' title='PHD Registration'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SGSRUkZUfEI/AAAAAAAAAIs/NCNKV4idCr0/s72-c/Picture+056.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-1053212811652719410</id><published>2008-06-19T21:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:42.069-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Umum'/><title type='text'>Balik Kampung Trip</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SFs0_I5vrbI/AAAAAAAAAIU/Y8ARtFkhf_k/s1600-h/airport.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213819252937567666" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SFs0_I5vrbI/AAAAAAAAAIU/Y8ARtFkhf_k/s320/airport.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Minggu lepas saya telah melawat keluarga isteri saya di Cilacap, jawa tengah. ketibaan saya di kampung halaman menyingkap kembali suasana yang dilalui oleh saya semasa kecil di kampung arwah nenek di kepala batas, kedah. Suasana begini telah lama saya idamkan dimana kehadiran orang jauh (kami sekeluagra) begitu dinantikan. Perjalanan dari Kota Jogjakarta ke Cilacap mengambil masa hampir 4 jam lamanya, dan keluarga sanggup berhimpit dalam kereta Avanza yang agak sarat dengan sepupu-sepupu iqbal dan makciknya. tetapi meeka tidak keluh memandangkan peluang untuk ke Jogjakarta bukanlah satu peluahg yang mudah dicari. Apa yang lebih mengharukan, ketibaan saya disana dismbut dengan penuh meriah. Yang lebih gembira adalah anak saya Muhd. iqbal kerana ramai kawan-kawan yang sebaya. Suasana kampung seperti itu adalah satu pengalaman yang tidak mungkin akan dilalui di Malaysia, kita di Malaysia telah kehilangan nilai-nilai kekeluargaan yang akrab seperti itu, masing-masing sibuk dengan tugas sehinggakan kita tidak mempunyai masa untuk keluarga. keadaan ini amat berbeza sekali di Cilacap, dimana, ramai kaum keluarga isteri saya bertandang ke rumah untuk berjumpa dengan "Orang Malaysia", walaupun singkat, saya merasakan "hospitality" yang diberikan amat "terkesan" sekali. Insyaalah jika berkesampatan saya ingin selalu pulang ke kampung halaman isteri jika ada rezeki. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Saya teringat zaman semasa saya kanak-kanak dimana pengalaman kembali ke kampung di kedah selalu ditunggu-tunggu walaupun setahun sekali. perjalananan pun ambil masa sehingga 7 atau 8 jam. tetapi keletihan itu semacam hilang apabila kita dapat berjumpa dengan sepupu dan nenek dan keluarga lain di kampung. layanan yang mesra membuatkan kedatangan kita dihargai. inilah yang dikatakan semangat kekeluargaan yang mungkin semakin kehilangan pada generasi kini. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-1053212811652719410?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/1053212811652719410/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=1053212811652719410' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1053212811652719410'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1053212811652719410'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/06/balik-kampung-trip.html' title='Balik Kampung Trip'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SFs0_I5vrbI/AAAAAAAAAIU/Y8ARtFkhf_k/s72-c/airport.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4567025758232378934</id><published>2008-06-17T08:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-17T08:51:56.592-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ulasan Buku Bimbingan dan Kerjaya: Konsep dan Amalan Kontemporari</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SNEnff0GWLI/AAAAAAAAAV4/So6KruAmqiA/s1600-h/bimbingan+da+kerjaya.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SNEnff0GWLI/AAAAAAAAAV4/So6KruAmqiA/s400/bimbingan+da+kerjaya.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247018462932785330" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bimbingan dan Kerjaya: Konsep dan Amalan Kontemporari&lt;br /&gt;Pengarang: Mohamed Sharif Mustaffa, Roslee Ahmad&lt;br /&gt;o 2006 &lt;br /&gt;o ISBN 983-52-0410-1 &lt;br /&gt;o 125 muka surat &lt;br /&gt;o RM 29.00 &lt;br /&gt;o Penerbit UTM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sinopsis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ekonomi dan pekerjaan adalah dua bidang yang saling berkaitan dalam era pasca millinneum. Menyedari kepentingan bidang kaunseling kerjaya dapat menolong pelajar dalam memilih dan menentu hala tuju kerjaya pada era pasca millinneum, maka penulis mengetengahkan pemikiran dan amalan kaunseling supaya dapat dijadikan panduan kepada masyarakat umum. Terdapat enam bab ditulis secara komprehensif, iaitu Pengenalan dan Perkembangan Kerjaya di Luar Negeri dan Malaysia, Teori–teori Kaunseling Kerjaya, Sumber Maklumat Kerjaya, Kaunseling Kerjaya Individu Dewasa, Kerjaya Perspektif Islam, dan Isu–isu Bimbingan dan Kerjaya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seiring dengan tuntutan Islam Hadhari oleh Perdana Menteri supaya amalan pekerjaan perlu dilakukan dengan amanah, jujur dan akauntabiliti, maka penulis membicarakan kerjaya daripada perspektif Islam. Buku ini sesuai sebagai rujukan kepada pendidik, ahli psikologi, pengamal kaunseling, pelajar psikologi dan kaunseling di institusi pengajian tinggi dan individu yang berminat menambahkan pengetahuan dalam bidang kaunseling kerjaya.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-4567025758232378934?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/4567025758232378934/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=4567025758232378934' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4567025758232378934'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4567025758232378934'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/06/ulasan-buku-bimbingan-dan-kerjaya.html' title='Ulasan Buku Bimbingan dan Kerjaya: Konsep dan Amalan Kontemporari'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SNEnff0GWLI/AAAAAAAAAV4/So6KruAmqiA/s72-c/bimbingan+da+kerjaya.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-8261050910938014559</id><published>2008-06-16T21:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:42.942-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Berita PERKAMA'/><title type='text'>Dinner PERKAMA bersama Ikatan Bimbingan dan Kaunseling Indonesia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SHg79nKq--I/AAAAAAAAAJU/zYJ04OU2HDI/s1600-h/abah.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221989697607891938" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SHg79nKq--I/AAAAAAAAAJU/zYJ04OU2HDI/s320/abah.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ikatan Bimbingan dan Kaunseling Indonesia dari Sumatera Utara telah melakukan kunjungan balas terhadap negara Malaysia dimana PERKAMA menjadi tuan rumah.

Justeru secara sedar atau pun tidak setiap warga dunia perlu menyesuaikan diri dan bergerak seiring dengan arus perubahan yang dibawa oleh fenomena tersebut.&lt;br /&gt;Terdapat banyak anjakan paradigma yang harus dimulakan dalam minda setiap individu yang mahu terus hidup termasuk di dalam institusi kekeluargaan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Benarkah keengganan masyarakat menerima perubahan dengan menyesuaikan diri dengan persekitaran akan menyumbang ke arah gejala sosial yang lebih memuncak.&lt;br /&gt;Isunya, apakah punca yang menjadi masalah kepada institusi keluarga di era globalisasi dan bagaimana menghadapinya mengikut landasan Islam dan benarkah keluarga di era 50-an dahulu lebih ideal daripada zaman generasi hari ini.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Umum sedia maklum apabila isu gejala sosial diketengahkan, tidak dapat tidak masyarakat akan terus dihimpit dengan masalah-masalah seperti perceraian, keganasan rumah tangga, kehamilan luar nikah, zina, sumbang mahram, penderaan anak dan sebagainya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peranan Keluarga&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Asas keluarga termasuk melanjutkan zuriat keturunan manusia, memupuk dan menyemai kasih sayang serta memperkukuhkan tanggungjawab dan amanah kepimpinan. Sudut unit asas keluarga dahulu merupakan keluarga meluas (extended family) iaitu terdiri daripada ibu bapa, datuk, nenek, ibu dan bapa saudara serta saudara-mara. Mereka ini berperanan menegur perbuatan yang tidak baik berlaku di kalangan ahli keluarga dan menyebabkan generasi muda segan dan bimbang melakukannya. Sebaliknya beliau berkata, keluarga hari ini adalah keluarga nuklear iaitu terdiri daripada anak-anak dan ibu bapa. Kebetulan pula keduanya bekerja dan masa bersama begitu terbatas menyebabkan ada masalah anak-anak yang terlepas pandang atau tidak mahu dikongsi bersama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Harlina (Utusan, 14/12/2006) menyambung, dari segi pembahagian tugas, dahulu suami bekerja dan menyara keluarga sementara isteri menguruskan rumah tangga. Namun pada hari ini, suami dan isteri mempunyai pekerjaan dan pendapatan sendiri dan sekali gus peranan suami sebagai pembuat keputusan dalam keluarga turut berubah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalam keluarga era globalisasi pasangan mendapat persetujuan bersama dalam banyak perkara. Walaupun dari satu sudut, perkongsian itu akan menghasilkan keputusan yang lebih adil, namun kebanyakan pasangan gagal menangani melalui proses yang betul menyebabkan banyak berlaku kepincangan.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-462908893325315116?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/462908893325315116/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=462908893325315116' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/462908893325315116'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/462908893325315116'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/05/kaunseling-dan-keluarga.html' title='Kaunseling dan Keluarga'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-2262085239392497980</id><published>2008-05-03T21:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:05.399-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>Counseling R&amp;D</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Research and Development  of Counselling in Malaysia: A historical overview.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ever since counseling was first established in Malaysia in the sixties, much progress has made especially in the professional areas. Training and professional competencies were attained especially in terms of standards for training and licensing. Yet little was achieved in research. There has been some questions raised with respect to the results of what a counselor achieves when he conducts counseling. Such questions need to be addressed immediately, in order for counseling to gain public confidence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A counselor trained at the diploma and first degree levels must be ones who are able to understand research articles. At the master’s level, he needs to both understand and able to conduct research at an elementary level. At the doctorate level, he is a specialist and able to understand and conduct advanced research  and thereby able to make comparisons between the various research designs  and conduct writing accordingly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There seems to be a scarcity of research in such areas as history and philosophy, case studies,  aspects of theoretical and comparative aspects of counseling. Counseling in Malaysia must be addressed according to the various races and ethnic groups. Such being the case, cross-cultural and multi-cultural counseling is appropriate. The application of  client centered theory, gestalt, behavioral, cognitive, transactional, psychoanalytic  …….must be evaluated in terms of  types of clients and  the contexts where counseling is conducted. Here  theories  and models of research  is of paramount importance. The history of counseling in Malaysia is necessary, while the application of counseling in various cultural contexts, for instance in Malay clients, the context of an Islamic religion where the Holy Quran is applied, is important in evaluating the counseling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moreover, the context of counseling among various strata of society need also to be addressed. People in the lower socio-economic groups generally  preferred the traditional modes of helping. What are the traditional modes? To what extent such modes are successful, and what are the contexts  considered important.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These areas of research must be urgently considered in order for counseling to be relevant in the context of the Malaysian society. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Prof. Emeritus Dato’ Dr. Abd Halim Othman&lt;br /&gt;Fellow Member PERKAMA, PSIMA and APECA.&lt;br /&gt;22-4-2008&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-2262085239392497980?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/2262085239392497980/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=2262085239392497980' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2262085239392497980'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2262085239392497980'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/05/counseling-r.html' title='Counseling R&amp;D'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-1438912691776937974</id><published>2008-05-03T21:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:05.399-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><title type='text'>Psychological Therapies</title><content type='html'>Psychological therapy, or psychotherapy, is an emotionally charged, confiding interaction between a trained therapist and someone suffering from psychological difficulties. The major psychotherapies derive from the familiar psychoanalytic, humanistic, behavioral, and cognitive perspectives on psychology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Psychoanalysis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those influenced by the psychoanalytic perspective try to help people gain insight into the unconscious origins of their disorders and to work through the accompanying feelings. To do so, an analyst may draw on techniques such as free association and dream analysis, and interpret resistance and the transference to the therapist of long-repressed feelings.&lt;br /&gt;Traditional psychoanalysis, which is no longer practiced widely, is criticized for assuming repression, for after-the-fact interpretations, and for being time-consuming and costly. The more common psychodynamic therapy is influenced by the psychoanalytic perspective’s concern for providing insight into childhood experiences and defense mechanisms. But it offers a briefer treatment form and often incorporates other techniques into the therapy sessions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Humanistic Therapies&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unlike psychoanalysts, humanistic therapists focus on clients’ current conscious feelings and on their taking responsibility for their own growth. Carl Rogers, in his client-centered therapy, used active listening to express genuineness, acceptance, and empathy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Behavior Therapies&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Behavior therapists do not attempt to explain the origin of problem behaviors or to promote self-awareness. Instead, they attempt to modify the problem behaviors themselves. Thus, they may countercondition behaviors through systematic desensitization or aversive conditioning. Or they may apply operant conditioning principles with behavior modification techniques, such as token economies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cognitive Therapies&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cognitive therapies, such as Aaron Beck’s cognitive therapy for depression, aim to change self-defeating thinking by training people to look at themselves in new, more positive ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Group and Family Therapies&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many therapeutic techniques can also be applied in a group context. Self-help and support groups, such as AA, engage many millions of people. Family therapy treats the family as an interactive system from which problems may arise.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-1438912691776937974?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/1438912691776937974/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=1438912691776937974' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1438912691776937974'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1438912691776937974'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/05/psychological-therapies.html' title='Psychological Therapies'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-2529643553260130185</id><published>2008-05-02T04:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:53:07.843-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Person Centered Therapy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>What is Client Centered Therapy? What Is Not</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Client-Centered Therapy - &lt;br /&gt;What Is It? What Is It Not?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barbara Temaner Brodley, August, 1986&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carl R. Rogers, the originator of client-centered therapy, did not intend to found a school of psychotherapy with a set practice. Instead, he worked with his clients, reflected on the therapy process and, at a certain point, he advanced a set of hypotheses (1957) about the causes of constructive personality change. He presented the theory so it could be tried out by others and so it could be used as a basis for further research on psychotherapy. &lt;br /&gt;Rogers thought his theory was an approximation to the truth about therapy. But he was, also, committed to protecting and encouraging a spirit of experimentation, discovery and creativity about psychotherapy. He did not want client-centered therapy to be "frozen" but, rather, to be a working hypothesis, a stimulus to further inquiry about the therapy process. &lt;br /&gt; Rogers always has been committed to promoting openness, growth and change in the pursuit of truth about therapeutic process. He has always encouraged and supported research projects and theorizing by others. And, very importantly, his presentation of the theory in terms of attitudinal conditions, not techniques, fostered openness to different ideas about therapeutic practice. His theory left it up to the practitioner to choose which behaviors or techniques could be used to communicate the therapeutic attitudinal conditions to the client. This development in client-centered theory opened the way for practitioners from many different therapeutic schools to incorporate the basic premise and thypothesesees of attitudinal conditions into their own therapy without abandoning their original orientations. It also set the stage for the creation of a variety of new therapeutic methods based on the fundamental principles of client-centered theory. &lt;br /&gt; It is my impression that there are many different therapy practices, and more therapies continually developing, which share the basic theory of client-centered therapy. This situation, of many evolving therapies which are often referred to as client-centered therapies, is confusing to students and confusing when one wishes to discuss differences in therapy practice with colleagues. &lt;br /&gt; I think it would clarify this situation to classify a therapy practice as a person-centered therapy whenever a therapist is trying to work from the basic hypotheses: the inherent growth principle and the major attitudinal conditions for constructive change. Once this classification is made, we can distinguish among the various person-centered therapies by their observable form, or their techniques, or by the additional principles, values or theoretical elements they encompass. &lt;br /&gt; I believe there are many evolving person-centered therapies and the practice of client-centered therapy is one of those. Client-centered therapy can be described in terms of the theory it shares with the other person-centered therapies and by its distinctive features. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My view is that client-centered therapy is a distinctive and important practice and that it can be defined as a practice and its parameters clarified. I do not believe it would, by defining it in a delimiting way, become static or not evolve further. Rather, its evolution would be conceived within certain limits. Functioning therapeutically outside those limits would be considered, perhaps, a new and other person-centered therapy. Or someone might, also, be developing a practice outside the defined limits of the person-centered therapies. Certainly many of those already exist. The point is, this system of classification gets around the problem of freezing client-centered therapy but also permits distinctions in respect to the practices of therapy that are out there in the reality of therapeutic work. &lt;br /&gt; The differences distinguishable among person-centered therapies probably make substantial differences in the experience of therapy by both client and therapist and make differences in what is observable on tapes and films and, probably, make differences in the effects of the therapy on the lives of its clients. We can study and understand these different effects much better if we distinguish practices. But most important to me, the clarification and definition of client-centered therapy as distinguishable from other person-centered therapy practices can contribute to the presentation and evolution of this unique and extremely effective way of working with clients. I have felt, for some time, that client-centered therapy has been misunderstood, underestimated and underused, in part, because of its ambiguities as a practice and because of its confusion with other person-centered therapeutic practices. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The Person-Centered Approach&lt;br /&gt;Rogers has recently stated the basic hypothesis and the therapeutic conditions that distinguish the person-centered approach as follows: &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The central hypothesis of this approach can be briefly stated. It is that the individual has within him or her self vast resources for selfunderstanding, for altering her or his selfconcept, attitudes, and self-directed behavior--and that these resources can be tapped if only a definable climate of facilitative psychological attitudes can be provided. &lt;br /&gt; There are three conditions which constitute this growth-promoting climate, whether we are speaking of the relationship between therapist and client, parent and child, leader and group, teacher and student, or administrator and staff. The conditions apply, in fact, in any situation in which the development of the person is a goal. I have described these conditions at length in previous writings (Rogers, 1959, 1961). I present here a brief summary from the point of view of psychotherapy, but the description applies to all of the foregoing relationships. &lt;br /&gt; The first element has to do with genuineness, realness, or congruence. The more the therapist is him or herself in the relationship, putting up no professional front or personal facade, the greater is the likelihood that the client will change and grow in a constructive manner. . . . &lt;br /&gt; The second attitude of importance in creating a climate for change is acceptance, or caring or prizing--unconditional positive regard. It means that when the therapist is experiencing a positive, nonjudgmental, accepting attitude toward whatever the client is at that moment, therapeutic movement or change is more likely. . . . &lt;br /&gt; The third facilitative aspect of the relationship is empathic understanding. This means that the therapist senses accurately the feelings and personal meanings that are being experienced by the client and communicates this acceptant understanding to the client. (Rogers, 1986). &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Additional assumptions, beliefs and hypotheses that are central to the person-centered approach are the following: &lt;br /&gt;1. Belief that human nature is basically constructive. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;2. Belief that human nature is basically social. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;3. Belief that self-regard is a basic human need and that self-regard, autonomy and individual sensitivity are to be protected in helping relationships. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;4. Belief that persons are basically motivated to perceive realistically and to pursue the truth of situations. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;5. Belief that perceptions are a major determinant of personal experience and behavior and, thus, to understand a person one must attempt to understand them empathically. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;6. Belief that the individual person is the basic unit and that the individual should be addressed, (not groups, families, organizations, etc.), in situations intended to foster growth. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;7. Belief in the concept of the whole person. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;8. Belief that persons are realizing and protecting themselves as best they can at any given time and under the internal and external circumstances that exist at that time. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;9. Belief in abdication of the pursuit of control or authority over other persons and, instead, a commitment to strive to share power and control. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;10. A commitment to openmindedness and humility in respect to theory and practice. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The basic hypothesis, the theory of therapy and the additional beliefs stated above describe the person-centered approach. They are elements I believe are usually shared by the people practicing the various person-centered therapies including client-centered therapy. These shared elements do not, however, distinguish client-centered therapy from the other person-centered therapies. The following discussion is an attempt to define and discriminate the practice of client-centered therapy. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Client-Centered Therapy - What is It?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, client-centered therapy is distinguishable by its form. The salient form of client-centered therapy is the empathic understanding response process (Temaner, 1977). The empathic understanding response process involves the therapist maintaining, with consistency and constancy the therapeutic attitudes in his/her experience and expressing him/herself to the client through empathic understanding responses. Please turn to the appendix of this presentation for four segments of therapy sessions which can serve as illustrations of empathic understanding response process. &lt;br /&gt; Empathic understanding responses are the observable responses which communicate empathic understanding to the client. They are responses intended to express and check the therapist's empathic understanding experience of the client. In a given empathic understanding response process between therapist and client many different types of empathic understanding responses may be involved. Examples of common types oempathic understandingng responses are the following: literal responses; restatements; summaries; statements which point toward the felt experience of the client but do not name or describe the experience; interpretive or inferential guesses concerning what the client is attempting to express; metaphors; questions that strive to express understandings of ambiguious experience of the client; gestures of the therapist's face, hands, body; vocal gestures, etc. &lt;br /&gt; What makes these types of response function as empathic understanding responses is that the therapist expresses them to the client with the intention to ask the client - 'is this what you are telling me?' or 'is this what you mean?', or 'is this what you are feeling?'. These types of response, and others, may be the vehicle for the expression of empathic understanding as long as their sole intended function is to help the therapist in his attempt to understand the client's internal frame of reference as the client is searching himself and communicates to the therapist. &lt;br /&gt; The empathic understanding response process can appear to be very different from therapist to therapist, and between therapies with different clients by the same therapist, depending upon the types of responses which are used by the therapist. The particular way the therapist expresses empathic understanding to the particular client does not matter, from the point of view of remaining within the client-centered framework, however, as long as the way communicates to the client the therapist's intention to understand and as long as the client feels understood by the therapist. &lt;br /&gt; Client-centered therapy is also distinguishable by the extreme emphasis the practice places on the non-directiveness of the therapist. In client-centered therapy the therapist is intensely mindful to respect and protect the autonomy and self-direction of the client. The client is viewed as the expert about himself and the therapist views himself as expert only in maintaining the attitudinal conditions in the relationship with the client, not as an expert on the client. &lt;br /&gt; The therapeutic relationship is inherently an unequal relation in which the client is self-defined as vulnerable and in need of help and the therapist is self-defined as one who can help. An element in the person/client-centered perspective is the belief that unequal relationships are naturally, to some extent, hurtful or harmful to the persons involved in them. &lt;br /&gt; Unequal relationships are sometimes necessary, for example the physician and patient or the teacher and student, because they offer desired benefits. But the person/client-centered perspective fosters the abdication of the pursuit of power and would argue for minimizing the hurt or harm by sharing the authority as much as possible. &lt;br /&gt; The client-centered therapist is particularly mindful of the harmful potential side-effect of the unequal therapeutic relation and tries to share his authority as much as possible. This awareness and effort influences all of his actions in relations to the client. Basically, the client centered therapist's view on this matter is - the authority for the client's experience is the client and the way the client uses the relationship is always left up to the client. &lt;br /&gt; This non-directive attitude has a significant influence on the way therapy is conducted, influencing what is done and what is not done. For example, the client-centered therapist answers client's questions. Obviously, if the therapist decides what questions it is appropriate to answer, or takes the view that certain questions are expression of a client's avoidance of something and the therapist interprets this to help the client get on the right track, or if the therapist takes the view that the client's question is an aspect of seeking dependence on the therapist and the therapist raises this interpretation, then the therapist is acting in ways that direct the client's process. From a client-centered viewpoint, the idea that the therapist should evaluate the desirability for the client of having his questions answered is paternalistic and an exercise of authority over the client. &lt;br /&gt; A client-centered therapist remains free to not answer a question asked by the client. But the reason for not answering would be explained to be a personal one - the therapist feels he does not know enough, or he feels uncomfortable in divulging the particular information, etc. - not as something that is good for the client. There are many, many implications for the way therapy is practiced when the client-centered therapist is acting from this strongly felt attitude that the client is his own best expert and that the therapist maintain non-directiveness. &lt;br /&gt; The non-directive character of client-centered therapy is not only for the purpose of protecting the client's autonomy and to enhance the client's self-direction. Client-centered therapy is a fundamentally non-directive therapy because being so contributes to the distinctive therapeutic quality of the relationship between therapist and client. This quality involves the fostering in the client of a combination of feelings - of freedom, of a positive sense of self, and of empowerment The therapist provides the basic therapeutic attitudes of congruence, acceptance and empathy. He combines these in his way of being, with non-directiveness - the absence of directive attitudes and behaviors that would determine the content of the client's expression, that would determine the form of the client's expression or determine the processes that take place in the client. This whole way of being produces a unique experience of an authority (the therapist, inherently an authority) consistently behaving in a non-authoritative manner. This abdication of the usual forms of authority carries meaning to most clients. It conveys that they are not being evaluated, not being supervised and not being controlled. That they are not being treated in these usual ways by an authority also carries the meaning that they are being treated with respect, are being trusted, and are free, to a great extent, in the relationship. As a consequence the relationship takes on the qualities referred to above, of freedom, of enhancement of the client's sense of self and sense of personal power. Client-centered therapy is a practice in which the hypothesis of the inherent growth principle is put into action. It is also a therapy wherein the theory of therapeutic attitudes as conditions for growth is taken as the basis for functioning with the client. It is also a therapy practice that is distinguishable by the form that it usually takes (or the form it reverts to if other forms come into play) - the empathic understanding response process. It is also a therapy which emphasizes non-directiveness and wherein this principle is maximized in the relation with the client. All together, these features distinguish client-centered therapy from other extant and possible person-centered therapies. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Client-Centered Therapy - What is it not?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the world of psychotherapeutic practice client-centered therapy is not many things. The following list of things it is not will be limited, however, to those things it is sometimes thought to be by people who have a familiarity with the approach. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;1. Client-centered therapy is not the technique of "reflection of feeling" or making "empathic understanding responses". Any outward form of an art (and therapy is an art) may be looked at as a technique. It may be useful to look at the reflection or empathic understanding responses from the point of view of technique but this should be understood as an abstraction and contrary to the spirit of their actual production. Only if empathic understanding responses, (or any other types of response used in the context oclient centereded therapy), are used as expression of the therapist's genuine attitudes of congruence, acceptance and empathic understanding are they an expression of client-centered therapy. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;2. Client-centered therapy is not identical with the empathic understanding response process. This is so even though the process is the salient form of interaction in relationship of client and therapist and even though this form is one of the identifying features of client-centered therapy. Empathic understanding response process (EURP) is not identical with the total therapy for three main reasons. First, the functions of the therapist are more than the EURP. The therapist's adaptation to the individual client as a person in a concrete relationship situation requires the application of the hypothesis and the therapeutic conditions in many ways, including the set up of the therapy, the adjustments in language for the sake of mutual understanding, and the social aspects of the therapy situation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, the EURP is an optimal process, as a means to express empathic understanding and express the other therapeutic attitudes to the client, for most clients who choose to engage in therapy and wish to talk about themselves and their problems. But client-centered therapy is not limited to this population of clients. The realization of the theory of therapy with clients who do not choose therapy, or clients who are unable to talk about themselves, or clients whose illness or defects distort their relation to reality or to a relationship, may require forms of interaction which appear quite different from empathic understanding response process. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Third, there are, in the usual therapy situation when EURP is the salient form, often other forms of interaction which occur in the practice. These forms, such as answering questions, giving explanations, shaping experiments for the client to try, etc., occur in and may be an integral part of a particular therapy relationship. These forms occur in client-centered therapy, however, only when they are requested by the client or when they become the way to be with the client that gets clarified out of expressed needs or desires of the client. If forms of interaction other than EURP occur in a particular client-centered relation, the way they are expressed or done is shaped by the belief in the growth principle, the presence of the therapeutic attitudes in the therapist and the non-directiveness of the therapist. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;3. Client-centered therapy is not based on a belief in any particular therapeutic process occurring in the client. Even if it were to be shown that the most therapeutic process in clients is a particular way of expressing the self, or a particular way of relating expression to inner experience, or particular feelings developing-toward the therapist, or a particular pattern of insights, or any other idea about how the client should act or feel or express - as the maximally therapeutic way - (and nothing of the sort has been shown so far), client-centered therapy would remain non-directive and open to the process that emerged in the client and would not involve trying to influence that process. &lt;br /&gt; It should be obvious, that to hold the view that a particular way of functioning by the client in the therapy relation is the way to make happen would necessarily involve some form of directiveness and be inconsistent with the basic conception of client-centered therapy. Given the premises of client-centered therapy, it is not possible to justify directiveness regardless of the advantages that might derive from directiveness in a particular instance. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;4. Client-centered therapy does not excessively restrict the therapist's resourcefulness as a helper. This is the case in two different ways. First, within the framework of client-centered therapy as defined above, it is possible for therapists, depending upon their talents and the psychotechnologies they have learned, and if they are so inclined, to utilize techniques identified with other types of therapy. Techniques of, for example, behavioral therapy, cognitive therapy, gestalt therapy, hypnosis, focusing, relaxation, meditation, etc., may be brought into the context of ongoing client-centered therapy. But - and this is a restriction the client-centered therapy would bring these in only at the request of the client or when the interaction brings out in the client an awareness of needs that might be met by such techniques. The client- entered therapist does not, as said before, have any convictions prior to the therapy about what process in the client, or what ways of helping, a client may need. These techniques and psychotechnologies may, then, be incorporated into a specific course of client centered therapy, as long as the therapist is not imposing them and the client is given control of the occasions and limits on their use. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second way the therapist is not restricted in the forms of help that may be given to the client is that the client-centered therapist may serve as a source of information about other therapies or treatments and as the person who helps the client utilize the therapies or treatments provided by others. Sometimes helping the client utilize other therapies means minimizing their damage to the client that takes place as they are benefiting him. Until other helpers - physicians, psychological and behavioral therapists, psychopharmacologists, etc., are, themselves, person-centered it remains the case that many of these experts violate the self-regard or the autonomy of their patients and clients. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The client-centered therapist performs a crucial service in maintaining the basic client-centered therapeutic relation while his client goes through various treatments and therapies. These treatments may, in their specifics, be helpful to the client - even necessary - for his well-being. But without the grounding in the client-centered relation the client may be totally unable to use the services of these experts, or may be hurt or damaged in the process. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the same way that the nature of client-centered therapy, in providing optimal conditions for growth and change, facilitates the client's constructive experience of, and way of relating to, his world, it also facilitates the client's strength, confidence and good judgement in utilizing the resources of the world, including its myriad therapies, treatments and educational and remedial resources. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;5. Client-centered therapy is not inhibiting or restrictive to the natural personality of the therapist. It is true that the person who has strong tendencies to control others or to dominate others is not likely to take on client centered therapy as his way of working But if the basic person-centered values feel right to the therapist, the development of its disciplines will tend to feel self-realizing, not self-restricting~ Also, within the framework of client centered therapy there is great freedom for individual personalities. The therapeutic attitudinal condition of congruence the realness of the therapist, the avoidance of a role fosters the development of individuality (and the client's perception of that individuality) in the therapist's presence with the client. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a marked similarity among client-centered therapists in their shared values and in the salient form of the therapeutic relation - the empathic understanding response process. Within that form, however, the unique mind and experience of a therapist shapes his empathic grasp of the client's presented experience and shapes the specific responses that are expressed to the client. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Individuality is also expressed in the extent of personal openness and the qualities brought out in self-disclosures when they are in answer to personal questions by the client or when they are an expression of congruence. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The natural personality of the therapist is generally enhanced and developed by the practice of client-centered therapy itself. The practice requires the development of the attitudinal conditions in relation to clients. In this development, for that context, the client-centered therapist tends to develop those qualities towards himself and is, thereby self-therapeutic and self-fostering of his own individuality. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;6. Client-centered therapy is not based simply on what works. It is based on what works within the parameters of what expresses and maintains the client's experience of the attitudinal conditions and of the therapist's non-directiveness and does not contradict the presence of these conditions. If what works also jeopardizes the client's sense of safety and freedom, or undermines the client's self-regard, his feelings of confidence in himself, or his sense of autonomy, then what works in those cases is not sufficient to justify employing it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The achievement of insights, or the reduction of specific symptoms, in client-centered therapy, is only considered therapeutic if it is in the context of the larger perspective of preserving the therapeutic attitudinal qualities of the relationship perceived by the client. [2] &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Client-centered therapy stems from ethical values and beliefs, even though they are held with the reservation that they are hypotheses. These values assert respect for the individual person and the belief that unconditional caring for the person is constructive for the person and also for the social milieu of the person. Whatever scientific support there may be for the client-centered theory of therapy - and there is considerable support for it (Patterson, 1984), the science is not the start of the practice for the practitioner. It simply gives support for where we place our faith. Because no-one knows the truth about therapy and no-one knows what is right. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;[2] This statement is from the perspective of the client-centered therapist not the client. The client is the judge, for himself, of whether or not any therapy or treatment or technique is therapeutic for him, and of whether or not the benefits he has received outweigh what he may have suffered. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Presented at the First Annual Meeting of the Association for the Development of the Person-Centered Approach which met in Chicago, Illinois at International House on the University of Chicago Campus September 3 - 7, 1986.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-2529643553260130185?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/2529643553260130185/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=2529643553260130185' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2529643553260130185'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2529643553260130185'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/05/what-is-client-centered-therapy-what-is.html' title='What is Client Centered Therapy?

Setelah melalui beberapa garis hidup yang menyedihkan, kini Sufiah didapati memperoleh pendapatan dengan menjadi pekerja seks. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pelbagai andaian dikaitkan dengan apa yang berlaku terhadap Sufiah. Namun, adalah juga sukar untuk menjelaskan apakah sebenarnya penyebab kepada tingkah laku Sufiah yang berubah daripada kanak-kanak yang bergambar bangga dengan topi graduan di luar Kolej St. Hilda yang berprestij kepada pekerjaannya sekarang. Hanya Sufiah yang mengetahuinya kerana beliaulah pelaku kepada tingkah lakunya. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dari sudut psikologi, ada yang mengaitkan dengan apa yang dialami semasa proses membesar. Ia dikaitkan dalam peringkat-peringkat perkembangan personaliti sepertimana yang dijelaskan dalam teori psikoanalitik oleh Sigmund Freud. Dalam penerangan mengenai pembentukan personaliti Anal Aggressive, Freud menjelaskan, sekiranya ibu bapa terlalu ketat kawalan dan rigid peraturannya maka kanak-kanak akan bertindak balas secara agresif dengan tidak mematuhi akan kehendak ibu bapanya.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tindak balas menentang ini akan menjadi asas bagi pembentukan personaliti yang melahirkan ciri-ciri seperti amarah dan tidak teratur yang ekstrem. Ramai yang kuat berpendapat bahawa bapanya yang menjadi segala punca kepada masalah yang dihadapi Sufiah.&lt;br /&gt;Mungkin juga tingkah laku Sufiah adalah dalam bentuk penyaluran (displacement) iaitu satu bentuk mekanisme untuk melepaskan desakan-desakan kepada sasaran lain yang lebih selamat. Misalnya, rasa marah terhadap bapanya disalurkan kepada bentuk tingkah lakunya.&lt;br /&gt;Bukan sahaja faktor ibu bapa Sufiah yang boleh dikaitkan dengan apa yang berlaku kepada dirinya. Mungkin juga ia berdasarkan prinsip keseronokan di mana segala tingkah laku didorong oleh kehendak untuk memperoleh keseronokan dan berusaha mengelak daripada pengalaman yang menyakitkan. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mungkin juga Sufiah melakukannya atas dasar untuk memperoleh keseronokan. Manusia melakukan satu tindakan adalah hasil daripada proses pelaziman dan mereka lebih cenderung mengulangi apa-apa aktiviti untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan kehidupan.&lt;br /&gt;- Apa yang ditulis di atas adalah hanya andaian-andaian kepada faktor yang menyumbang kepada tingkah laku Sufiah. Hanya Sufiah yang dapat memberi jawapan kepada segala persoalan dan permasalahan yang menimpa dirinya.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Namun bantuan dan bimbingan perlu diberikan kepada Sufiah untuk beliau dapat meneruskan kehidupan dengan baik. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-1218513334917621621?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/1218513334917621621/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=1218513334917621621' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1218513334917621621'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1218513334917621621'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/04/sudut-psikologi-sufiah.html' title='Sudut Psikologi - Sufiah'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SA1EbZYnFoI/AAAAAAAAAGg/3KTHqsXcOSU/s72-c/3003_maths_03.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-7845441175472972747</id><published>2008-04-21T18:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:05.401-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sufiah Yusof'/><title type='text'>Sufiah was beaten</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;"I was beaten," says Sufiah -10/3/2001&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LONDON March 9 2001- Child prodigy Sufiah Yusof, who enrolled at Oxford University at 13, for a maths degree and then disappeared under mysterious circumstances appeared on television here on Thursday night to say that all she wanted was freedom from her over-domineering father's unrelenting push for her to succeed.  Sufiah, born of a Pakistani father Farooq Yusof and Malaysian mother Halimahton, was admitted to Oxford University as one of the youngest to be enrolled for a degree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She equalled the record of another child prodigy, Ruth Lawrence, who enrolled at Oxbridge also to study mathematics at an age when her contemporaries were still grappling with the problems of teenage life.  Appearing in a pre-recorded interview in the "Tonight" programme on an independent channel here, Sufiah who has now discarded her hijab which she wore at university and appearing fleshier and fuller-faced, said that she did not want to see her `bullying' father again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She also claimed that her father also used harsh disciplinary methods which included beating and mental intimidation for her to excel academically as well as in sport.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Farooq, in an interview with Bernama today, strongly denied allegations of abuse and said of the programme - in which he and wife Halimahton saw Sufiah for the first time since her `disappearance' - that certain facts have emerged from it which he did not know before.&lt;br /&gt;Farooq, who had spent nearly 10 hours with representatives of Bournemouith Council in the High Court before the screening of the programme on Thursday night, said that the interview on television revealed to them more than what the programme-makers intended.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The programme was shown to the Family Division of the High Court here hours before it was aired, and before an injunction was denied to the Bournemouth Council which is in legal custody of Sufiah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Commenting on this, Farooq said it was ironic that he and Bournemouth Council which had taken charge of Sufiah without his consent were now on the same side to protect her interest.&lt;br /&gt;The "Today" programme, hosted by Trevor McDonald, ITV's star newscaster, with interviews by Martin Bashir who won fame when the late Princess Diana made her frank revelations about adultery in an interview with him, made no new revelations about Sufiah beyond that are already in the public domain. Sufiah disappeared to re-surface in the seaside town of Bournemouith where she was spotted by police in an internet cafe.&lt;br /&gt;From there she supposedly sent an e-mail to her younger sister accusing her parents of "physical and emotional" abuse. She read this e-mail out in the interview.&lt;br /&gt;Farooq is adamant that there is something mysterious about this sudden disappearance and accusation, contending that Martin Bashir did not ask the one crucial question of Sufiah: Did she send the e-mail herself?&lt;br /&gt;He said he is now in consultation with solicitors for further action against the programme makers and the people who are responsible for his daughter's disappearance.&lt;br /&gt;Regarding allegations made by Sufiah in the interview that her parents moved near to where she was studying so that they could continue exerting control, Farooq's reply was that she was then 13, an age when a child needed the supervision of her parents.&lt;br /&gt;Both Farooq and wife Halimahton are of the opinion that there are forces behind their daughter's disappearance who are intent on rubbishing their achievement and are also influencing Sufiah against her will.&lt;br /&gt;Sufiah's being put in the care of foster parents is also of wider concern to the Muslim community here who are unhappy with the idea of taking away a Muslim child by a state authority to be put in the care of non Muslim foster parents without access being given to community representatives or her natural parents.&lt;br /&gt;"There are people now - not just myself - who are keen to get into the real story of Sufiah Yusof and the circumstances of her disappearance. The reality is the complete opposite of what was presented on television," Farooq said.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-7845441175472972747?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/7845441175472972747/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=7845441175472972747' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7845441175472972747'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7845441175472972747'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/04/sufiah-was-beaten.html' title='Sufiah was beaten'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-1858204806868466170</id><published>2008-04-21T18:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:44.943-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sufiah Yusof'/><title type='text'>Sufiah Tak Mahu Balik -</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SA1Af5YnFnI/AAAAAAAAAGY/1Z6LMQAdrzw/s1600-h/sufiahDM3003_468x661.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191876862152218226" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SA1Af5YnFnI/AAAAAAAAAGY/1Z6LMQAdrzw/s320/sufiahDM3003_468x661.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Artikel ini dipetik daripada Utusan Malaysia keluaran tahun 2000&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Saya tidak akan pulang – Sufiah-7/7/2000&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;LONDON 6 Julai 2000- Pelajar pintar, Sufiah Yusuf yang merasa kecewa dan marah, berjanji tidak akan kembali kepada kehidupan yang penuh dengan tekanan dan penganiayaan dan berkata beliau merasa lega setiap kali berjauhan daripada keluarga semasa di kampus Universiti Oxford. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalam e-mel kepada kakaknya, Aishah, 17, pelajar pintar matematik berusia 15 tahun itu melepaskan kemarahannya terutama kepada bapanya, Farooq Yusuf, 44, seorang pakar matematik yang melepaskan jawatannya untuk mengajar lima orang anaknya di rumah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Kandungan e-mel itu mendedahkan kehidupan berbeza pelajar pintar itu yang mendapat tumpuan media utama sejak beliau diterima masuk ke universiti berprestij itu semasa berusia 13 tahun. Sufiah berkata beliau sudah cukup menderita secara 'fizikal dan emosi' selama 15 tahun. 'Saya dapati anda telah pergi ke akhbar-akhbar nasional dengan cerita mengenai bagaimana anak anda yang 'tidak bersalah dan lurus lari dari rumah yang bahagia dengan sebilangan sosialis dan teman lelaki,'' katanya dalam e-mel yang diedarkan kepada akhbar tabloid di Britain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;''Tidak pernahkah terlintas di fikiran anda sebab saya meninggal rumah adalah kerana saya sudah tidak tahan lagi dengan penganiayaan emosi dan fizikal selama 15 tahun?''&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;''Saya sudah cukup menderita kerana kehendak hati anda yang bodoh mengenai tenis, pelaburan, komputer, perbankan dan sebagainya" kata Sufiah dalam e-melnya. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Merujuk kepada adik beradiknya yang lain, Sufiah berkata 'anda' telah merugikan hidup abang kerana mahukan dia untuk mendapatkan banyak wang melalui kemenangan dalam kejohanan tenis. Saya, saya bernasib baik. Oxford lebih baik, sebahagian besarnya kerana saya kerap berada di luar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Sufiah meneruskan ancaman ke atas keluarganya supaya mendedahkan kepada media bahawa beliau selamat dan tinggal bersama saudara mara di sama ada di London atau Scotland.&lt;br /&gt;''Jika tidak saya akan pergi kepada akhbar dengan cerita sebelah pihak saya pula tengah hari esok. Saya benar-benar maksudkannya.''&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Inilah nada mesej itu yang mengukuhkan lagi kepercayaan Farooq bahawa Sufiah berada di tangan 'pihak ketiga'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;''Ia bukan Sufiah yang sebenar. Ini adalah permainan psikologi pihak ketiga ke atas keluarga kami,'' kata Farooq.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Menurutnya Sufiah sudah pasti ditahan bukan atas kehendaknya dan sebarang rujukan kepada latar belakang keluarga sudah pasti diperoleh daripadanya.

Traditionally counseling psychologist work with normal or moderately maladjusted individuals. Their work may involve group counseling or individuals. Their principal method of assessment  is usually the interview, but counseling psychologists also do testing – eg assessment of abilities, personality, interests and vocational aptitude. Historically they have done a great deal of educational and occupational counseling. More recently, many counseling psychologists have begun to employ cognitive behavioral techniques and even biofeedback.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Traditionally they most frequent employment arenas for counseling psychologist have been educational settings, especially colleges and universities. however, counseling psychologists. Like clinical psychologists also work with hospital, rehabilitation centers, mental health clinics and industry. A good example of the kind of work counseling psychologists conduct within educational settings is suggested in the heading that appeared above an article in a campus newsletter several years ago : “ Counseling Center responds to married students needs” the article went on to describe group counseling session designed to help students who are parents deal with the special problems that a marriage and children create for them in pursuing their academic goals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In general, counseling psychologists see themselves in the following activities:&lt;br /&gt;1. preventive treatment&lt;br /&gt;2. consultation&lt;br /&gt;3. development of outreach programs&lt;br /&gt;4. vocational counseling&lt;br /&gt;5. short term counseling / therapy of one to 15 session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However younger counselors seem more and more to view themselves as engaged in activities, such as psychotherapy that are traditionally in the clinical province. Today they are frequently less interested in vocational and career counseling (Fitzgerald &amp;amp; Osipow) and increasingly interested in private practice (Zook &amp;amp; Walton, 1989).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although there a similarities between counseling and clinical psychology, there are several distinguishing features as well. The field of clinical psychology is much larger, in terms of the number of doctoral level professional. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-8834069222600232826?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/8834069222600232826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=8834069222600232826' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/8834069222600232826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/8834069222600232826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/04/counseling-psychologists-vs-clinical.html' title='Counseling Psychologists VS Clinical Psychologists'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-7525951022058409338</id><published>2008-04-06T19:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:21.322-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><title type='text'>Professions in Psychology</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;School Psychologists&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Work with educators and others to promote the intellectual, social and emotional growth of school age children. Toward this end, they may help to  plan the learning environment, for eg they may generate programs to assist the development of children with special intellectual, emotional, or social needs. Often they evaluate such children and recommend special programs., treatment or placement if necessary. They also consult with teachers and school officials on issues of school policy or classroom management. Their work settings range from schools, nurseries, and daycare centers to hospitals, clinics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rehabilitation Psychologists&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The focus is on the people who are physically or cognitively disabled. The disability may result from birth defect or latter illness or injury. Rehab psychologists help individuals adjust to their disabilities and the physical, psychological, social and environmental barriers that often accompany them. Their most frequent places of employment are in rehabilitation institutes and hospitals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Health Psychologists&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contribute to the promotion and maintenance of good health. They are also involved in the prevention and treatment of illness. They may  design, execute, and study programs to help people stop smoking, manage stress, lose weight or stay fit.

For sad Sufiah the daily equation she has to solve is simply sex equals £130 as she sells her body to punters over the internet. The gifted girl with the winning smile had the world at her feet ten years ago and should be a rich woman by now—but last week she was busy subtracting her underwear for our undercover reporter in her dingy back street flat. "Would you like to start your half hour now?" said Sufiah, 23, as she danced on the bed, displaying her body for examination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then she listed all the sleazy plus points she would throw in for our man if he took up her offer.&lt;br /&gt;Calling herself Shilpa Lee, the former child prodigy still juggles with figures on a hookers' website, describing herself as a "very pretty size 8, 32D bust and 5'5" tall—available for booking every day from 11am to 8pm."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;She says she is a "sexy, smart student" who prefers "older gentlemen"— but a former pal who has witnessed her downfall told us: "It is all desperately heartbreaking. "With her amazing brain she should be able to make money any way she wants. But instead her life has spiralled completely out of control." Life has never quite added up for Sufiah. Her descent into prostitution in Salford, Manchester, is the latest in a long line of tragedies to have engulfed her since the sunny day when she posed with her university mortar board for the world's press outside prestigious St Hilda's College.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Our shock revelations today come in the week her domineering dad Farooq was jailed for sexually assaulting two 15-year-old girls as he home-tutored them in maths. And he was always at the root of all her troubles— even as she passed the further maths A-Level she needed for entry to Oxford at the age of 12. In those days Sufia was a strict Muslim child who prayed five times a day and was subjected to her father's famous Accelerated Learning Technique.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Her days involved stretching and breathing exercises in freezing rooms to keep her brain attentive. Sufiah would then study hard and be forced to play tennis with just as much intensity as fanatical Farooq drove her on. The routine was so effective Sufiah was seeded number eight in the country for under 21s. But three years into Oxford, the 15-year-old sparked a massive police hunt after running away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Abuse &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the time her father bizarrely claimed Sufiah had been kidnapped and brainwashed by an organisation seeking the key to her intelligence. But Sufiah sent an email to her family describing her life under her father as a "living hell". One message to her sister read: "I've finally had enough of 15 years of physical and emotional abuse. You know what I am talking about."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sufiah was missing for two weeks before being found in an internet café in Bournemouth where she had been working as a hotel waitress. She refused to go back to her parents and instead was taken into the care of social services. It was then revealed that Farooq had been jailed for three years in 1992 for his part in a £1.5m mortgage swindle. Before that—at the age of 19—he had been sent to borstal for his role in a conspiracy involving £100,000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Free from the spell of her father, Sufiah returned to Oxford to complete the final year of her Masters in Maths. But she was now more concerned with enjoying herself—and failed to finish the course after meeting trainee lawyer Jonathan Marshall. They were married in 2004 when Sufiah was just 19 and Jonathan 24. But the strains with her family were still there.&lt;br /&gt;Despite being invited, Sufiah's parents and four brothers and sisters failed to turn up to the wedding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Her dreams of a happy life with Jonathan were shattered when the couple divorced just a year later. Now, in her sad little flat, she uses her body to pay the rent. Sufiah met our man, posing as a punter, at the entrance to her building wearing a tiny skirt, leather boots and a tight t-shirt. She was carrying three mobile phones. She laughed and joked as she led him to her small apartment where a bed was already set out in the lounge. She told him it was £130 an hour and offered him a glass of water before putting some music on to a cheap portable stereo and nervously stripping down to her red lace bra and knickers. Sufiah then peeled off her underwear and danced on the bed. She told him she did full sex with a condom and oral sex without protection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;After our man had made his excuses, Sufiah kept him talking by telling him how she was studying for a Masters degree in Economics on a part-time two year course in London.&lt;br /&gt;The former prodigy added: "I've got exams coming up and I'm thinking ‘Oh my God!'"&lt;br /&gt;Once described by her parents as "naïve and unstreetwise", she works alone from her flat without any obvious physical security or protection. She even admitted to our reporter: "It's always a surprise who you are going to meet." Cheerful Sufiah gave no indication of any sadness at the jailing of her father the previous day. On Wednesday Farooq, 50, was sentenced to 18 months at Coventry Crown Court for touching two 15-year-old girls when he was home tutoring them at maths. The court heard how in May last year Farooq arrived at one of the victim's home for a maths lesson.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;He started whispering in her ear and kissing her hair and cheek. He also touched her breast and told her she was a genius and pretty before putting her hand on his upper thigh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Destroyed &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Farooq's defence lawyer Tim Hannam said: "He's been back in prison for over five months and knows there'll be no more teaching and any hope he had of gaining an income from the teaching method he had developed to a high degree of success is lost to him. His reputation is destroyed."&lt;br /&gt;Now it's clear the daughter who fled his strict regime has almost been destroyed too. Her friend said last night: "Sufiah has suffered so many knocks in her life. I just hope she can drag herself out this life she has got herself into. "She is a good person and deserves a much better life than this. Her gift really has been a curse."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/3003_hooker.shtml"&gt;http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/3003_hooker.shtml&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-114000785962178435?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/114000785962178435/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=114000785962178435' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/114000785962178435'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/114000785962178435'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/04/sufiah-yusof-maths-prodigy.html' title='sufiah yusof-maths prodigy'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R_H6jfugkQI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/uA9ijqS8TBY/s72-c/sufiah+gambag.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-5396695710030540896</id><published>2008-03-31T23:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:21.323-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><title type='text'>Indigenous Psychology</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;An Excerpt from Dato' Abdul Halim Othman's  Keynote Address at the Asian Social Psychology Conference (2007). &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A discussion of indigenous psychology is in line with the context of the establishment of UKM.  What is Indigenous psychology?. Taking a simplistic definition, it is, "A scientific study of human behaviour or mind that is native that is not transported from another region, that is designed for its people and our culture" (Uichol kim etc, l993). Abdul Halim Othman , ed. (l993) said  in the introduction to  Psikologi Melayu  (Malay Psychology) was the compendium which can be used by researchers and others to understand the Malay mind or psyche (xv).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abd. Halim Othman said in UKM " Psychology  Melayu or indigenous psychology will be the basis, with the study of Malay psychology  as the core...UKM have to fight for a curriculum, where others cannot enter the turf...the theses and research developed  are for future students to study as to the appropriateness of them..." However he commented the development of psychology in Malaysia in the last 40 years is not very promising...there is no continuation.  People like Ariffin, Aminuddin , Nordin were trained...back in the 70s. There need to be fresh blood to take over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aminuddin Yusof (2007), “agree with the idea that the history, philosophy and development of psychology in Malaysia – social work, development and counselling etc...Psychology programmes cater for science part, counseling, social work and human development  is technology part. Social work  must be given a new color a different perspective from the current practise in the world. It should be psychologically oriented with elements of counseling embedded in it, hence "psychological social work". In Malaysia, schools, communities and organisationas need this kind of social work, not the old sciological social work."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Psychology in Malaysia is always social in the sense that it is a study of human behaviour in the presence of others. Thousands of studies were conducted for graduation exercises, MA, and Ph.D theses, and most of them are about human behaviour in the presence of others. ‘’...no matter in which sub-discipline they were categorised into, even studies in organisational psychology are focussed on the social aspect of behaviour..... counseling studies were regarded as counseling just because supervisors are counseling specialists not because the area of the study is counseling, they are always social behavior. (Aminuddin,2007)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" The difference in psychology as contributed in UKM differs from UIAM, The psychology in UIAM does not step on the ground, in the context of a Malay world...(Mustafa, 2007) Others ‘’ agree with the suggestion that indigenous psychology in Malaysia, be given a place.." (Suzana, 2007). In fact some attention has been given in research by Wan Rafaei (1984,1994), Rosnah Ismail (2001, 2004 a, 2004 b) and others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abdul Rahman Embong (2007) also considered indigenous psychology in the context of the Malay world – Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Sabah, Sarawak, Southern Philipines, South Thailand, Singapore etc. with 100 plus ethnic (kaum) / communities and understanding a common language. There is an opportunity to test their know how i.e how they developed their religion, beliefs, culture, etc. through their philosophy, history in the context of the newer disciplines like cultural anthropology, ethnic studies, comparative religion, folklore etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 100 years there is the question of how these communities developed their psychology and how they are looked upon as an "all-embracing" and come up with the idea of a universal psychology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In sum, the Chairman of the seminar Sanggar Kerja (2007), Yahaya Mahmood said,  "We will discuss on the Malay and later on in the Nusantara context. Indigenous psychology, perhaps include orang asli, and nusantara communities. We need to gather all information written by psychologists in the areas studied.

Di antara persoalan yang timbul, apakah bidang tugasnya juga melibatkan pemberian khidmat kaunseling selain daripada perkhidmatan psikologi yang lain. Kita sedia maklum bahawa bidang kaunseling mempunyai sub-bidangnya yang tertentu seperti psikologi kaunseling, kaunseling keluarga, kaunseling perkahwinan, kaunseling penagihan dadah, kaunseling sekolah, kaunseling organisasi, kerjaya, dll. Setiap bidang ini memerlukan kemahiran dan kelayakan yang tertentu sebelum seseorang itu layak memberikan khidmat. Seperti yang kita sedia maklum, Negara kita adalah merupakan antara Negara yang terawal di Asia dalam meluluskan Akta Kaunselor. Lesen perakuan amalan yang dikeluarkan oleh Lembaga Kaunselor mengiktiraf kemahiran kaunselor secara generic, persoalannya adakah pegawai psikologi yang ingin menjalankan kidmat kaunseling juga diwajibkan mendapatkan lesen perakuan amalan dari Lembaga Kaunselor?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Menurut Akta Kaunselor 1998, maka mereka juga adalah tertakluk kepada pendaftaran dan kelayakannya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terdapat pelbagai tanggapan berkenaan dengan isu ini iaitu tidak kira apakah nama yang diberikan kepada jawatan ini, apa yang penting adalah ia harus diwujudkan dengan segera. Dalam keghairahan kita mewujudkan jawatan-jawatan yang bersifat “specialize” ini kita tidak boleh terlepas pandang bahawa, nama profesion kaunseling itu haruslah di ambil kira. Persepsi masyarakat terhadap profesion juga haruslah ditangani dengan bijak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terdapat kekeliruan di kalangan orang awam berkenaan dengan khidmat psikologi dan kaunseling. Sejauhmanakah khidmat psikologi yang boleh ditawarkan kepada orang awam melalui jawatan tersebut. Tanpa satu Akta yang berkaitan dengan bidang Psikologi, maka perlindungan terhadap profesion dan juga masyarakat tidak dapat disediakan. Sekiranya pegawai psikologi menjalankan khidmat kaunseling kepada klien dan didapati pula ia menjalankan secara tidak beretika, apakah natijah yang bakal berlaku kepada profesion psikologi dan juga kaunseling secara amnya. ???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Akta Psikologi perlu diwujudkan segera bagi menjelaskan bidang tugas professional bidang psikologi. Akta Kerja Sosial sedang dalam perancangan, Akta Kesihatan Mental bernaung dibawah kementerian kesihatan, Akta Kaunselor bernaung di bawah kementerian pembangunan wanita , persoalannya dimanakah Akta Psikologi patut bernaung? Perlukah kirannya Akta Kaunselor 1998 digabungkan dengan Akta Psikologi? Dan sekiranya ia digabungkan apakah manfaat yang dapat diperolehi oleh kedua-kedua profesion tersebut?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seperti yang diketahui, sejarah penubuhan akta kaunselor bermula dengan sokongan kuat oleh menteri perpaduan ketika itu dan juga Persatuan Kaunseling Malaysia. Pada awalnya memang ia bertujuan menubuhkan akta psikologi, namun setelah beberapa kali pertemuan dan perbincangan oleh semua wakil persatuan, ngo, dan kementerian , usaha-usaha untuk menubuhkan akta kaunselor menjadi agenda utama dengan bertujuan untuk melindungi profesion dan masyarakat melalui pendaftaran kaunselor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kini, Institut Sosial Malaysia yang diterajui oleh Dr. FAdzil Che Din, sedang mengusahakan Akta Kerja Sosial. Persatuan Psikologi pula sedang mengusahakan Akta Psikologi. Satu Perkembangan yang positif terhadap perkembangan kedua-dua profesion ini. Kita tahu bahawa pakar2 dalam bidang masing-masing tidaklah sebegitu ramai di negara kita, dan ramai dari mereka mewakili hampir kesemua persatuan yang sama. Jadi untuk kebaikan masa depan semua pengguna,,,adalah diharapkan bahawa ia dapat memajukan lagi industri yang berkaitan dengan kesihatan mental.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dilemma?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Profesion psikologi merupakan sesuatu yang baru dinegara kita…bilangan graduan bidang psikologi mungkin juga masih sedikit brbanding dengan profesion kaunseling yang bertapak lebih awal di Negara kita sejak dari tahun 1940’an. Ia bermula dengan kaunseling di sector pendidikan (bimbingan).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Psikologi mula ditawarkan di Malaysia hanya pada tahun 1970’an dengan kewujudan jabatan Psikologi di UKM pada ketika itu. Kini ia telah berkembang dengan pesatnya dengan lulusan yang mencapai ribuan orang…Sekolah Psikologi dan Kerja Sosial pula mula ditawarkan di Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) pada tahun 1996. begitu juga dengan kolej swasta yang mempunyai graduan atau pelajar yang semakin ramai . OUM pula akan mula menawarkan Ijazah sarjana Muda psikologi yang dalam peringkat mendapatkan kelulusan dari LAN. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Persoalan yang timbul, dimanakah graduan-graduan ini berkhidmat sekarang? tidak terdapat jawatan khusus yang ditawarkan kepada mereka sebelum ini. Langkah JPA dilihat sebagai melindungi periuk nasi profesion tersebut, tetapi kita harus ingat bahawa tidak semua graduan psikologi yang dapat memberikan khidmat kaunseling dengan berkesan. melainkan mereka medapat latihan dalam bidang kaunseling.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Saranan-saranan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Akta Psikologi perlu diluluskan segera.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Akta Psikologi dan Kaunseling patut digabungkan menjadi Akta Psikologi dan Kaunseling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jawatan profesional di sektor awam haruslah di timbang sebelum mula ditawarkan. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jawatan kaunselor haruslah diperbanyakkan bagi mengelak kekeliruan rakyat berkaitan peranan dan bidang tugas profesion ini. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-5754394957923376681?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/5754394957923376681/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=5754394957923376681' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/5754394957923376681'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/5754394957923376681'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/03/akta-psikologi-dan-kaunseling.html' title='Akta Psikologi dan Kaunseling'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4894460987844366592</id><published>2008-03-22T17:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:45.396-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling Kelompok'/><title type='text'>Kemahiran Asas Ketua Kelompok</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R-Wq9fugkFI/AAAAAAAAAE0/3TZ_hmuy4HU/s1600-h/Photo+24.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180734919824937042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R-Wq9fugkFI/AAAAAAAAAE0/3TZ_hmuy4HU/s200/Photo+24.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ketua kelompok haruslah mempunyai beberapa kemahiran asas kaunseling sebelum memikirkan untuk memilih gaya kepimpinan yang jitu. Di antara kemahiran asas kaunseling yang dicadangkan adalah :&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Memulakan – (initiating). Ketua haruslah mempunyai kemahiran menggalakkan lagi penglibatan ahli dan memperkenalkan arah tujuan kelompok.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mendengar - ketua juga perlu berkemahiran dalam menyatakan kefahaman terhadap masalah ahli, bersikap tidak menghukum, menghormati ahli dan mempunyai kefahaman empatik terhadap bahasa lisan dan bahasa bukan lisan ahli-ahli kelompok.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Menyatakan semula – Memparafrasakan apa yang dicakapkan oleh ahli bagi menjelaskan lagi makna. Teknik ini bertujuan untuk melihat sejauhmanakah kefahaman ketua terhadap kenyataan klien dan sejauhmanakah kebenaran pernyataan klien terhadap isu yang dibincangkan. Corey (2004) menyatakan wujudnya keadaan di mana ketua yang tidak mempunyai kemahiran akan menyebabkan memburukkan lagi keadaan klien. Sebagai contoh ketua kelompok mengulang-ulang kenyataan klien. Egan (2007) pula menyatakan bahawa pita rakaman lebih efektif dalam melakukan perkara tersebut (parroting).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Penjelasan – ketua membuat penjelasan bagi mencari mesej-mesej tersirat yang berkaitan perasaan dan fikiran klien serta bagi memudahkan kenyataan klien dengan fokus terhadap mesej sebenar klien. Kenyataan ini turut dipersetujui oleh Abdul Halim Othman &amp;amp; Md. Shuaib Che Din (2002) dimana penjelasan dilakukan oleh ketua kelompok bagi mendapatkan mesej yang jelas dan menunjukkan implikasi dari sesuatu pendapat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Bertanya soalan – Bertanya soalan yang berbentuk terbuka dapat meneroka persoalan apa dan bagaimanakah sesuatu tingkahlaku berlaku. Ia juga bertujuan untuk menggalakkan lagi perbincangan dan mendapatkan maklumat daripada penerokaan klien. Corey (2004) mencadangkan beberapa soalan terbuka yang boleh diajukan kepada ahli seperti "Apakah yang sedang anda alami sekarang?, bagaimanakah anda berhadapan dengan perasaan ketakutan berada di dalam kelompok ini sekarang? Soalan-soalan yang terbuka dari ketua kelompok dapat menyediakan ahli meneroka lagi perasaan dan pengalamannya pada situasi kini dan sekarang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mentafsir – Menawarkan kemungkinan keterangan untuk sesuatu pemikiran, perasaan dan tingkahlaku.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Refleksi perasaan – merupakan satu bentuk komunikasi oleh ketua kelompok yang menggambarkan kefahamannya terhadap kandungan makna perasaan. Ia juga menunjukkan bahawa kaunselor benar-benar memahami perasaannya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sokongan - ketua juga digalakan untuk memberi sokongan dalam bentuk dorongan dan peneguhan. Ianya bertujuan untuk membina persekitaran yang menggalakkan ahli meneruskan tingkahlaku yang dikehendaki. Corey (2004) menyatakan bahawa sokongan juga haruslah dinilai dari segi kegunaannya, misalnya ada ketua yang terlalu awal memberikan sokongan, ada pula yang memberi sokongan berlebihan dan menyokong tanpa mencabar pemikiran klien. Jika ini berlaku, kemungkinan ahli-ahli menarik diri untuk meneroka perasaannya dengan lebih mendalam dan hilang potensi untuk memperolehi kesedaran kendiri yang mendalam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Empati – Mengidentifikasikan diri dengan klien dengan mengandaikan bahawa kaunselor atau ketua kelompok berada dalam kerangka rujukan klien.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Blocking – Ketua kelompok juga perlu kemahiran ini bagi menjamin keselamatan klien daripada ancaman-ancaman yang mungkin wujud. Perbincangan diantara ahli kelompok perlu berhati-hati supaya tidak terlalu bebas atau mengancam aspek psikologikal klien. Di antara situasi memerlukan blocking oleh ketua adalah seperti wujudnya ahli dalam kelompok yang memberikan terlalu banyak nasihat, storytelling, gosip, memberikan sokongan yang tidak bertujuan, menceroboh hak-hak individu dan lain-lain. Corey menyarankan kaunselor supaya menggunakan kemahiran blocking ini dengan cara yang penuh sensitif dan lembut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Kesenyapan – ketua perlu fahami kenapa berlaku kesenyapan, memahami kenapa ada ahli yang tidak dapat bercakap mengenai dirinya, dan menggunakan masa senyap ini untuk memerhati tingkahlaku ahli contohnya kebosanan, gelisah, cemas, ingin bercakap, takut dsbnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Konfrantasi – digunakan apabila ahli menghadapi pengelakan penerokaan diri atau ada percanggahan pendapat. Koinfrantasi hanya digunakan pada peringkat kejelekitan yang tinggi antara ahli-ahli kelompok.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Campurtangan – kaunselor mengalihkan kembali topik perbincangan kepada yang asal apabila berlaku lari tajuk atau topik.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Probing – Memandu ahli untuk melihat dengan lebih mendalam tentang masalah, perasaan dan tindakan ahli. Ketua juga perlu peka terhadap perasaan, fikiran dan diri ahli.&lt;br /&gt;Menilai – ketua juga perlu menilai atau menaksir proses perkembangan kelompok. Abd. Halim Othman dan Md. Shuaib (2002) menyatakan peranan ketua adalah membantu ahli menilai apa yang telah mereka pelajari dari kelompok kaunseling dan mengalakkan mereka menjadi lebih spesifik.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Maklumbalas – ketua memberikan reaksi yang konkrit dan spesifik terhadap tingkahlaku. Maklumbalas juga boleh diberikan oleh ahli-ahli. Corey (2004) menyatakan bahawa maklumbalas yang spesifik dan deskriptif adalah perlu diberikan berbanding dengan maklumbalas yang terlalu umum dan "judgemental" perlu dielakkan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Melindungi – ketua haruslah melindungi ahli dari ancaman atau risiko psikologikal yang mungkin berlaku. Contoh yang ketara adalah apabila ada antara ahli yang menyerang satu ahli dengan berterusan seperti yang dinyatakan oleh Wan Kader (1994) mengenai teknik kerusi panas (hot Seat) dimana ia boleh menjejaskan kesejahteraan psikologikal klien. Peranan ketua menurut Abd Halim Othman (2002) lagi adalah membentuk satu keadaan yang ahli boleh berasa selamat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pendedahan kendiri – Memperlihatkan diri dan berkongsi pengalaman diri dan juga ahli kelompok dalam situasi kini dan sekarang. Kejelekitan kelompok dapat berlaku dengan lebih tinggi. Yalom (1985) dlm Abdul Halim Othman &amp;amp; Md. Shuaib Che Din (2002) menyatakan bahawa kualiti ketua kelompok adalah meningkatkan stimulasi emosi ahli dengan mengadakan aktiviti, risk taking dan juga self disclosure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Modelling – Menunjukkan tingkahlaku dan juga pemikiran yang baik bagi ahli melihat dan memperkembangkan potensi diri.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Penamatan – ketua juga perlu menyediakan ahli tentang sesi penutup, supaya ahli dapat menerima, mengasimilasikan, menyatupadukan, dan mengaplikasikan pembelajaran dalam kelompok kepada kehidupan nyata. Corey (2004) menyebut tentang sokongan dan susulan seperti sesi individu dapat diperolehi selepas tamat sesi dan ia haruslah disediakan oleh ketua sekiranya keadaan memerlukan. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-4894460987844366592?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/4894460987844366592/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=4894460987844366592' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4894460987844366592'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4894460987844366592'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/03/kemahiran-asas-ketua-kelompok.html' title='Kemahiran Asas Ketua Kelompok'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R-Wq9fugkFI/AAAAAAAAAE0/3TZ_hmuy4HU/s72-c/Photo+24.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-4862704118812903862</id><published>2008-03-22T17:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:45.633-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling Kelompok'/><title type='text'>Peranan Ketua Kelompok</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R-WpyPugkEI/AAAAAAAAAEs/YGsStDidhPM/s1600-h/Corey.G.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180733627039780930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R-WpyPugkEI/AAAAAAAAAEs/YGsStDidhPM/s200/Corey.G.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peranan dan tanggungjawab am ketua kelompok &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jenis-jenis kepimpinan dalam kelompok terbahagi kepada 3 jenis iaitu Autoritarian, Demokrasi dan Laisez faire (Saedah, 2004). Peraturan kepimpinan bercorak autoritarian ditentukan oleh ketua sendiri, tugas pemilihan ahli kelompok juga ditentukan oleh ketua, Ketua kelompok memberikan teguran, memberi perhatian dan pujian kepada ahli kelompok. Kesan yang bakal diperolehi daripada corak kepimpinan ini adalah ahli kelompok mungkin kurang keyakinan diri, menarik diri, memberontak, pendiam takut dan kurang kreatif dan inovasi. Corak kepimpinan berbentuk demokrasi pula adalah peraturan ditentukan oleh ahli. Setiap langkah dalam kaunseling kelompok ditentukan dan dibincang bersama oleh ahli dan juga ketua, begitu juga dengan pemilihan ahli ditentukan oleh mereka sendiri, kesan yang diperolehi daripada corak kepimpinan ini adalah ahli menjadi lebih yakin, berdikari, matang, bertolak ansur, menghormati orang lain dan pandai menyesuaikan diri. Corak kepimpinan terakhir iaitu berbentuk laisez faire pula melambangkan ketua langsung tidak berfungsi sebagi pemimpin. Ahli sendiri yang memilih halatuju kelompok, ketua hanya berperanan sebagai ahli biasa, tiada penstrukturan dan prosidur tertentu yang dicadangkan pada peringkat awal kelompok. Kesannya kepada ahli adalah tidak berdisiplin, melanggar peraturan, menjadi agresif, sering bergaduh. cepat marah dan kurang kemampuan diri. Walau apa cadangan kepimpinan kelompok, yang pasti adalah gaya peribadi dan juga personality kaunselor itu sendiri lah yang banyak mempengaruhi gaya kepimpinan yang dipilih selain daripada konsep teoritikal atau model kelompok, dan juga tahap-tahap perkembangan kelompok yang dilalui oleh ketua. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-4862704118812903862?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/4862704118812903862/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=4862704118812903862' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4862704118812903862'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/4862704118812903862'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/03/peranan-ketua-kelompok.html' title='Peranan Ketua Kelompok'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R-WpyPugkEI/AAAAAAAAAEs/YGsStDidhPM/s72-c/Corey.G.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-7765239425335394225</id><published>2008-03-22T17:46:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-14T09:10:20.915-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling Kelompok'/><title type='text'>Teknik Kelompok Pelbagai Pendekatan</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Teknik-teknik kaunseling kelompok pelbagai pendekatan.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perbandingan antara teknik-teknik kelompok pelbagai pendekatan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Psikoanalitik&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interpretasi, analisis mimpi, asosiasi bebas, analisis resistance, transference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Adlerian&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Analisis dan penaksiran, penerokaan konstelasi keluarga, melaporkan "recollections" awal, Konfrantasi, interpretasi, penstrukturan kognitif, mencabar sistem kepercayaan klien, dan penerokaan terhadap dinamika sosial dan juga gaya hidup yang unik pada individu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pemusatan Insan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Penekanan terhadap sikap dan tingkahlaku ketua, kurang penstrukturan digunakan, teknik atau kemahiran asas adalah mendengar secara aktif, refleksi perasaan, penjelasan, sokongan dan "being there" bersama klien.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gestalt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Konfrantasi, kerusi kosong, permainan dialog, making the rounds, fantasi, prosidur peranan terbalik (reversal Roles), teknik raptai, memperbesarkan tingkahlaku, staying with feelings, dream work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tingkahlaku&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Disensitasi bersistematik, terapi implosif, latihan asertif, teknik aversif, metod pembelajaran operan, teknik bantu diri, peneguhan tingkahlaku, raptai tingkahlaku, coaching, modelling, maklumbalas, dan prosidur mencabar kognitif klien.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REBT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Teknik mengajar secara aktif.

Penggunaan pendekatan eklektif adalah melibatkan kesesuaian dengan matlamat terapi, peranan dan tanggungjawab ketua kelompok berdasarkan personalitinya, dan juga kesesuaian penggunaan pelbagai teknik-teknik kaunseling. Psikoterapi bergerak ke arah pendekatan intergratif sejak awal 1980'an. Pendekatan intergratif juga dikatakan sebagai menggabungkan yang terbaik pelbagai orientasi teori dan teknik-teknik yang bertujuan untuk merancang rawatan yang lebih sempurna kepada klien. (Corey G, 2005)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pendekatan Eklektik ini bukanlah bermaksud mengambil secara membuta-tuli sahaja teknik-teknik dari pelbagai pendekatan tanpa mengambilkira rasional teori-teori yang berkaitan. Mengambil teknik-teknik tanpa rasional yang jelas hanya akan menyebabkan berlakunya "syncretistic confusion". (Lazarus, 1986 dlm Corey G., 2005). Eklektik Teknikal memberi fokus utama terhadap pemilihan pelbagai teknik berdasarkan perbezaan pendekatan teori-teori tanpa menggunakan keseluruhan teori berkaitan. Kelly (1988) dan Lazarus (1996) dalam Corey (2005) menyatakan bahawa tujuan penggunaan pelbagai teknik dari pelbagai pendekatan teori ini adalah berpunca daripada kefahaman mereka bahawa tidak ada satu set teknik dari satu pendekatan teori yang boleh menjanjikan keberkesanan perawatan kepada kepelbagaian ragam dan tingkahlaku manusia. Arkowitz (1997) pula melihat pendekatan intergratif ini sebagai satu usaha awal untuk membina kerangka yang koheren bagi pemahaman atau meramalkan perubahan, dan juga dalam menentukan pilihan teknik-teknik yang bersesuaian dalam terapi. Lazarus, 1995 dalam Corey, 2005  menyatakan lagi bahawa dengan berpegang kepada teori yang konsisten tetapi menggunakan teknik eklektik, ketua kelompok dapat merancang strategi intervensi yang berkesan terhadap kepelbagaian masalah ahli-ahlinya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalam memilih teknik-teknik yang bersesuaian untuk di aplikasikan kepada klien yang mempunyai kepelbagaian masalah dan juga latarbelakang yang berbeza, kaunselor harus bertanya diri mereka beberapa persoalan berikut:&lt;br /&gt;Apa, kepada siapa dan situasi bagaimanakah teknik ini sesuai digunakan?&lt;br /&gt;Kenapa sesetengah prosidur itu membantu dan sesetengah lagi tidak membantu?&lt;br /&gt;Apakah yang boleh dilakukan bagi memastikan kejayaan jangka panjang?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Corey (2005) menyatakan dalam pemilihan teknik yang sesuai, seorang terapis yang efektif akan mengambilkira beberapa perkara seperti tujuan terapi, seting kelompok, gaya dan personaliti kaunselor, dan juga masalah yang dikenalpasti untuk tujuan intervensi. Beliau menambah lagi bahawa tidak kira model atau pendekatan apa  yang ingin digunakan, kaunselor haruslah memutuskan apakah jenis teknik, prosidur, atau metod intervensi yang ingin digunakan, bila ingin menggunakannya dan juga kepada klien yang bagaimanakah hendak diaplikasikannya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lazarus menyatakan lagi bahawa sesetengah klien memberi maklumbalas kepada kaunselor yang mesra dan informal, manakala ada juga yang perlukan kaunselor yang bersifat formal. Ada klien yang lebih suka bekerja dengan kaunselor yang tidak direktif dan mendesak, ada klien pula suka kaunselor yang lebih direktif dan menonjol begitu juga ada klien yang respon kepada penggunaan pelbagai teknik pada masa yang berbeza.  Seorang terapis yang berkemahiran tinggi berupaya untuk menentukan masa yang sesuai samada untuk mencabar kliennya ataupun tidak, bilakah masa untuk menjadi direktif, bilakah pula masanya untuk menjadi formal atau informal, bilakah pula masanya yang sesuai untuk melakukan pendedahan kendiri dan juga bilakah pula masanya untuk menjadi "anonymous" kepada kliennya. Cabaran – cabaran ini haruslah dilalui oleh kaunselor yang menggunakan pendekatan intergrasi teknikal eklektik. Perkara yang paling utama yang perlu ada pada kaunselor adalah kebolehan untuk mengenalpasti masalah klien secara pantas dan bersistematik, mewujudkan perhubungan yang kolaboratif bersama kliennya dan juga kebolehan memilih strategi atau pelbagai teknik – teknik yang bersesuaian semasa melakukan intervensi.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-2205012043706192134?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/2205012043706192134/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=2205012043706192134' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2205012043706192134'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2205012043706192134'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/03/kaunseling-kelompok-pendekatan.html' title='Kaunseling Kelompok Pendekatan Integratif'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-1601271235699001609</id><published>2008-03-16T10:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:21.329-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Umum'/><title type='text'>Sekitar Pilihanraya Umum ke 12</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Pilihanraya umum ke 12 yang telah diketahui keputusannya pasti meninggalkan kenangan yang mendalam bagi generasi alaf 21 ini.

Shuaib Che Din 3/10/2000 Utusan Malaysia&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dari situ, berputiklah nafsu untuk melakukan hubungan seks bebas tanpa malu-malu.&lt;br /&gt;Pensyarah di Jabatan Psikologi, Fakulti Sains Kemasyarakatan dan Kemanusiaan, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Profesor Madya Dr. Md. Shuaib Che Din berkata, tempat-tempat itu amat menarik perhatian remaja seawal usia 12 hingga 14 tahun untuk mengunjunginya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katanya, kunjungan yang kerap boleh menjerumuskan remaja berkenaan melakukan perkara tidak bermanfaat. "Pada peringkat umur itu, remaja mempunyai naluri ingin mencuba sesuatu perkara baru. "Naluri itu jika tidak dikawal dengan baik akan menjerumuskan mereka ke kancah maksiat seperti seks bebas, pengambilan pil ecstasy dan minuman keras,'' katanya kepada Utusan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beliau mengulas faktor pendorong daripada sudut psikologi pelajar tingkatan satu, dua dan tiga terlibat dalam kegiatan tidak bermoral.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu, Dr. Md. Shuiab juga berkata, kewujudan semakin banyak pusat membeli-belah yang memiliki ruang siar kaki yang cantik turut mendorong pelajar melepak.&lt;br /&gt;Tambahnya, peringkat usia remaja awal juga adalah satu tahap usia berkawan terutama dari kalangan rakan sebaya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katanya, naluri berkawan itu akan mendorong mereka berkumpul di satu tempat yang boleh digunakan untuk berbual-bual kosong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Pusat membeli-belah yang banyak terdapat di Kuala Lumpur menjadi tumpuan remaja untuk melepak kerana itulah tempat paling sesuai untuk mereka berkumpul.&lt;br /&gt;"Kebanyakan mereka bosan tinggal di rumah kerana ruang rumah yang sempit terutama rumah pangsa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Jumlah adik-beradik yang banyak di rumah yang sempit itu pula menjadi faktor penolak kepada para remaja untuk berada lebih lama di rumah,'' katanya lagi.&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu, katanya, naluri berkawan juga berlaku di kalangan remaja luar bandar dan mereka memilih kawasan tersembunyi dan sunyi seperti rumah-rumah kosong untuk melakukan perbuatan tidak bermoral.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Di luar bandar juga berlaku perkara tidak bermoral di kalangan pelajar tetapi ia lebih terkawal,'' katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Berikutan itu, Dr. Md. Shuaib berkata, pihak kerajaan perlu menyediakan tempat-tempat yang boleh digunakan oleh remaja untuk memenuhi minat remaja seperti lapangan sukan dan rekreasi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Jadi perlulah ada tempat-tempat yang sesuai untuk mereka bersukan,'' katanya lagi.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-1607500564907258111?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/1607500564907258111/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=1607500564907258111' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1607500564907258111'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1607500564907258111'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/02/remaja-hurungi-pusat-hiburan.html' title='Remaja Hurungi Pusat Hiburan'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBrLrt-mSI/AAAAAAAAAQo/YrPsdAa3GKQ/s72-c/male_cat.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-7225007013704490557</id><published>2008-02-03T23:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:57:48.090-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Psychology Test'/><title type='text'>Mooney Problem Checklists Review</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Senarai Semak Masalah Mooney Problem Checklist&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alat ukuran yang dipilih adalah Senarai Semak Masalah Mooney (Ross L. Mooney &amp;amp; Leonad V. Gordon, 1950) College Form. yang dibina bagi mengenalpasti masalah-masalah yang sering dihadapi oleh para pelajar sekolah, pelajar kolej dan juga sesuai untuk golongan Dewasa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alat ukuran ini juga amat sesuai digunakan sebagai pra sesi kaunseling individu dan juga pembentukan kelompok. Ianya bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti masalah utama yang dihadapi oleh para pelajar bagi menyedarkan mereka akan kepentingan berbincang mengenai masalah yang dihadapi bersama dengan kaunselor. Para guru dan kaunselor juga boleh menggunakan senarai semak ini bagi memahami masalah-masalah para pelajar mereka dalam usaha untuk membantu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Latarbelakang Alat Ujian&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sejarah Perkembangan ALat Ujian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Senarai semak masalah ini bermula apabila hasrat utama penerbit adalah untuk mempunyai satu kaedah  yang sistematik dalam meneroka permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh para remaja. Pada tahun 1941 dan 1942 , edisi pertama  yang merangkumi tiga borang untuk bidang pendidikan telah diterbitkan buat pertama kalinya. Prosidur nya adalah mudah di mana para pelajar hanya perlu membaca sepintas lalu item-item dan menggariskan item yang berkaitan dengan masalah yang dinyatakan  dan membulatkan item-item  yang ditanda pada awalnya berdasarkan keutamaan masalah yang sering dihadapi. Mereka juga dikehendaki menulis satu rumusan pada akhirnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dua lagi borang iaitu untuk para pelajar di kolej nursing dan "rural Youth" telah diterbitkan pada tahun 1945 dan 1946.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tujuan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a.Persediaan kepada temubual dalam kaunseling&lt;br /&gt;b.Sebagai alat persediaan  kumpulan yang menjurus kepada pembentukan rancangan tindakan&lt;br /&gt;c.Sebagai asas untuk pembentukan kelompok bimbingan, program orientasi dan juga Homeroom.&lt;br /&gt;d. Meningkatkan kefahaman guru terhadap muridnya di dalam pengajaran seharian&lt;br /&gt;e. Sebagai alat penyelidikan permasalahan remaja. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sumber-sumber pembentukan item&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Item-item untuk edisi pra 1950'an telah dibentuk berdasarkan kepada senarai utama "master lists" sebanyak 5000 item daripada sumber-sumber berikut:&lt;br /&gt;1.         Pengalaman peribadi penulis sebagai kaunselor dan juga pentadbir sekolah.&lt;br /&gt;2.         Analisis rekod-rekod kes dan temubual kaunseling dengan para pelajar sekolah dan juga kolej.&lt;br /&gt;3.         Kajian penulisan lepas tentang masalah para pelajar.&lt;br /&gt;4.         Analisis perkataan yang telah ditulis oleh sebanyak 4,000 pelajar sekolah menengah di Amerika Syarikat yang menjelaskan masalah peribadi.&lt;br /&gt;5.         Kajian intensif dan analisis terhadap masalah yang dibangkitkan oleh sebanyak 250 pelajar dalam grade 7 hingga 12.&lt;br /&gt;6.         Review terhadap 5,000 kad berkaitan dengan keperluan personal-pendidikan yang di utarakan oleh 950 pelajar dalam gred 6,9 dan 12.&lt;br /&gt;7.         pelbagai sumber-sumber lain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Di antara kriteria pemilihan item yang digunakan adalah berkaitan dengan:&lt;br /&gt;1.         Bahasa yang mudah difahami oleh pelajar.&lt;br /&gt;2.         Perkataan yang pendek dan ringkas untuk pembacaan berulang.&lt;br /&gt;3.         Kesesuaian dari segi frasa individu.&lt;br /&gt;4,         Kenyataan yang "common" apabila ditadbirkan secara berterusan kepada sekumpulan pelajar yang besar dan cukup serius untuk mewakili keutamaan kes -kes individu.&lt;br /&gt;5.         Kepentingan tahap kepayahan dari masalah minor kepada perkara yang utama.&lt;br /&gt;6.         Cukup kabur dalam bidang yang menyentuh peribadi "touchy" supaya membolehkan pelajar menanda item tersebut dengan perasaan bahawa dia masih boleh menyembunyikan sesetengah hal spesifik berkaitan masalahnya.&lt;br /&gt;7.         Tertumpu kepada orientasi masalah peribadi berbanding orientasi sosial secara umum.&lt;br /&gt;8.         Reaksi yang spontan dalam jawapan .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reliabiliti dan Validiti&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kebolehpercayaan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sekiranya data yang diperolehi digunakan untuk memahami kes-kes individu, maka faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi individu dan juga perasaannya haruslah diambilkira. perubahan dalam item response tidak menjadikan data sebagai invalid. skor-skor yang diperolehi haruslah membantu dalam pencapaian matlamat temubual kaunseling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagi tujuan survei, data yang diperolehi haruslah menunjukkan kestabilan kepada kumpulan yang ingin dikaji. Kajian yang dilakukan oleh Gordon terhadap 116 pelajar sebanyak dua kali. Kekerapan yang diperolehi pada item-item pada ujian pertama dan kedua berkorelasi secara positif. pekali korelasi adalah .93.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kajian kedua yang dilakukan terhadap 4 kumpulan dimana MPCL telah ditadbirkan secara berulangkali dalam tempoh satu hingga 10 minggu selepas pentadbiran pertama. Rank Order pekali korelasi yang diperolehi adalah di antara .90 hingga .98.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ini menunjukkan bahawa MPCL menyediakan kestabilan dari segi nilai kebolehpercayaan yang tinggi apabila ditadbirkan kepada kumpulan, bagi tujuan perancangan program.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kesimpulan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walapun MPCL telah digunakan dalam beberapa kajian di malaysia dan dengan meluasnya di barat, Sewart &amp;amp; deiker, 1976 dalam Maznah (2000) menyatakan bahawa amat sedikit sekali kajian dibuat tentang nilai psikometrik alat pengukuran MPCL. Kajian oleh Stewart &amp;amp; deiker (1976) yang melibatkan tiga kumpulan remaja di barat iaitu remaja delinkuen, gangguan emosi dan remaja biasa telah mengkaji struktur faktorial di peringkat item, Hasilnya mendapati bahawa terdapat satu faktor umum yan dapat menjelaskan 20% daripada jumlah varians, Hasil dapatan kajian ini juga serupa menurut kajian oleh Joshi ( 1964) dalam Maznah (2000) yang melibatkan sekumpulan kanak-kanak di India. Dengan itu dapat disimpulkan bahawa walaupun MPCL dapat mengesan masalah-maslah khusus yang dihadapi oleh pelajar, namun ia tidak dapat menjelaskan struktur faktor yang menjadi asas kepada masalah - masalah ini. (Stewart &amp;amp; Deiker , 1976. , dalam Maznah &amp;amp; Kim phaik Lah , 2000)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Waters (1954) dalm Maznah (2000) menyakan lagi bahawa alat ini digunakan untuk menentukan pelajar-pelajar yang menghadapi masalah dan maklumat dari jawapan pelajar-pelajar dapat menolong kaunselor memahami masalah yang dihadapi oleh pelajar.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-7225007013704490557?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/7225007013704490557/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=7225007013704490557' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7225007013704490557'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/7225007013704490557'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/02/mooney-problem-checklists-review.html' title='Mooney Problem Checklists Review'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-5260141926561588562</id><published>2008-02-03T23:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:21.330-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>Characteristics of an Effective Counselor</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;CIRI-CIRI KAUNSELOR YANG EFEKTIF&lt;br /&gt;CHARACTERISTICS OF AN EFFECTIVE COUNSELOR&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHY DO PEOPLE BECOME COUNSELORS?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

Keadaan tersebut semakin bertambah kecoh apabila timbul perkhabaran yang kurang tepat tetapi segera dipercayai oleh orang ramai. Secara ringkasnya ini disebabkan oleh masalah khabar angin yang begitu cepat merebak. Keadaan inilah yang membingungkan orang ramai dan mereka pula menokok tambah maklumat yang diterima, lantas disebarkan kepada orang lain. Apa yang menjadi persoalan, bagaimana ia lebih mudah dipercayai dan mempunyai kesan yang mendalam.&lt;br /&gt;Penulis akan cuba menyorot tentang masalah khabar angin ini melalui pengamatan psikologi agar masyarakat terbanyak lebih berhati-hati, peka dan prihatin dengan masalah ini. Perbincangan ini terhad sekitar apa yang dibincangkan oleh sarjana-sarjana psikologi sosial sahaja. Ini kerana pengamatan tentang khabar angin ini juga diperbincangkan oleh sarjana-sarjana sosiologi, antropologi dan komunikasi. Namun begitu, pada asasnya perkara yang dibincangkan berpaksi kepada perkara yang sama tetapi berbeza dari segi penekanan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dalam kajian psikologi sosial didapati bahawa khabar angin wujud dalam dua keadaan yang berbeza. Pertama, khabar angin dan kedua, gosip. Kedua-keduanya meskipun sama tetapi mempunyai kesan yang amat berbeza. &lt;br /&gt;Khabar angin boleh didefinisikan sebagai maklumat yang kurang tepat atau tidak benar sama sekali yang disebarkan secara tidak formal atau tanpa pengesahan yang jelas dan pada kebiasaannya melalui perkhabaran dari mulut ke mulut. Kita juga boleh katakan bahawa khabar angin ini disebarkan secara melulu tanpa usul periksa yang teliti. Seterusnya, ia mudah dipercayai oleh orang yang mendengar dan sudah tentu cerita yang didengari sudah ditokok tambah bersesuaian dengan naluri si pencerita.&lt;br /&gt;Perkara yang paling rapat dengan khabar angin ini ialah gosip. Gosip pula boleh didefinisikan sebagai khabar angin terhadap hal peribadi seseorang. Mengikut pengkaji gosip C.H. Cooley (1901), terdapat perbezaan jelas antara khabar angin dan gosip. Khabar angin selalunya melibatkan sesuatu perkara yang ada kena mengena dengan masyarakat, tetapi gosip lebih bersifat peribadi dan terhad kepada orang setempat misalnya pejabat atau jiran. Jika ada pun isu gossip yang diperbesarkan, biasanya ialah isu tingkah laku para artis terkenal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ramai pengkaji serta sarjana psikologi sosial sependapat bahawa meskipun masih ramai yang menyebarkan khabar angin secara mulut ke mulut, tetapi dengan kemajuan teknologi maklumat, khabar angin lebih mudah disebarkan melalui Internet. Liputan Internet ini pula adalah lebih meluas daripada jangkauan mana-mana saluran maklumat lain, oleh itu kesannya adalah lebih meluas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malahan isu khabar angin lebih cepat meresap ke dalam jiwa individu dalam sesebuah masyarakat. Nilai penghayatannya adalah amat tinggi berbanding dengan gosip kerana pada minda seseorang itu, perkara yang digembar-gemburkan adalah berkait rapat dengan survivaliti dan kepentingan masing-masing. Perlu ditegaskan bahawa soal kepentingan dan survivaliti ini hanyalah wujud secara mendadak dan tidak berpijak pada kebenaran yang nyata. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu juga isu yang dibawa adalah lebih kepada pernyataan dan bukannya kenyataan. Pernyataan adalah suatu kata-kata yang masih belum tentu kebenarannya dan masih boleh disangkal atau disokong berdasarkan kepada kekuatan hujah.&lt;br /&gt;Manakala kenyataan adalah suatu kata-kata yang benar dan tidak boleh disangkal lagi. Kedua-duanya amat besar perbezaannya dan tentunya pernyataan hanyalah pernyataan. Sebaliknya kepada orang awam mereka amat sukar untuk membuat perbezaan dan akhirnya mempercayai setiap pernyataan adalah kenyataan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perlu juga diingatkan kekadang pelajar SPM atau STPM hatta pelajar universiti sering keliru dengan soalan pernyataan dan kenyataan. Maka bagi orang yang menyebarkan khabar angin ini akan cuba menokok tambah hujah agar pernyataannya akan berubah seperti kenyataan pula. Tanpa disedari pula cerita yang dibawa itu tidak mempunyai apa-apa nilai tetapi lebih kepada kekuatan hujah semata-mata. &lt;br /&gt;Dalam keadaaan ini, hujah yang diberikan berpaksi kepada soal-soal survivaliti dan kepentingan masing-masing. Maka akhirnya akan menimbulkan suasana curiga mencurigai dan syak wasangka. Asal mulanya perkara kecil, timbul pula perkara yang besar membara dari dalam minda individu yang terlibat. Maka wujud satu fenomena konflik kepentingan pada skala yang besar dan direnggangkan pula oleh pelbagai perbezaan. Perbezaan inilah yang mempolarisasikan individu yang terlibat, lantas kononnya mempertahankan hak masing-masing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apa yang menjadi masalah ialah apabila berlaku fenomena jeritan masyarakat iaitu seseorang itu akan bertindak kepada pernyataan peristiwa dan kenyataan peristiwa. Kedua-dua peristiwa ini akan hanya memanaskan keadaan sahaja dan mengundang kerugian yang amat besar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jika diteliti secara mendalam, khabar angin ini boleh dibahagikan kepada tiga ciri. Pembahagian yang dilakukan oleh sarjana Barat ini sebenarnya telah dibincangkan oleh Imam Al Ghazali dan beberapa sarjana Islam terdahulu. Khabar angin ini tertakluk kepada beberapa perkara. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pertama, khabar angin ini semakin menjadi-jadi dalam suasana yang penuh kekeliruan dan syak wasangka. Keadaan ini berlaku apabila orang ramai kekurangan maklumat yang muktamad yang boleh disandarkan. Pada kebiasaannya orang awam paling senang terjebak dalam situasi ini. Malahan ia wujud dalam keadaan maklumat yang negatif dan kalau wujud dalam suasana positif, ia akan mempercepatkan proses menentukan realiti yang sebenar. Jika tidak ia manghasilkan kesan negatif. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contohnya, khabar angin tentang pembuangan pekerja yang mungkin bersifat negatif tetapi jika pihak atasan memberitahu hal yang sebenar, tidak kiralah tentang penggajian pekerja atau pembuangan pekerja, ia boleh mengesahkan hal sebenar.&lt;br /&gt;Kedua, khabar angin adalah tidak stabil dan sering berubah-ubah. Orang awam yang tidak bertangungjawab mungkin menyebarkan perkhabaran tidak tepat dan mengubah isi kandungannya. Malang sekali ia dilakukan untuk menjaga kepentingan diri mereka semata-mata. Maka mereka akan menjaja hujah-hujah yang bernas dan sukar bagi orang awam untuk menafikannya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seterusnya bagi yang ragu-ragu, mereka akan termakan penghujahan yang diberikan kerana takut dicap sebagai kera sumbang disebabkan bersikap skeptikal. Ini akan mewujudkan satu keadaan yang mencelarukan keadaan dan menjadi begitu besar. Contohnya, seseorang yang tidak puas hati dengan sesuatu dan akan cuba menokok tambah cerita agar dirinya lebih dipandang baik oleh orang lain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ketiga, khabar angin sangat sukar diberhentikan. Hakikatnya, kebanyakan orang sedar bahawa khabar angin adalah sesuatu yang tidak patut dipercayai. Tetapi dalam keadaan ini individu yang terlibat sedar bahawa khabar angin bertambah dengan cepat kerana setiap orang juga menceritakan perkara yang sama. Malahan setiap individu yang terlibat juga membenarkan apa yang diceritakan oleh seseorang. Keadaan ini akan menyebabkan khabar angin ini wujud seperti api dalam sekam. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perlu diingat juga bahawa khabar angin akan lenyap apabila masa berlalu. Tetapi khabar angin yang besar memerlukan masa yang lebih lama untuk lenyap. Ia akan menjadi semakin sukar jika khabar angin itu sangat jelas diceritakan oleh orang lain, oleh itu ia semakin sukar untuk dilenyapkan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contoh yang menarik yang boleh diutarakan di sini ialah khabar angin tentang syarikat Procter and Gamble yang dikaitkan dengan pemujaan syaitan berdasarkan pada logo mereka. Keadaan ini telah mengakibatkan kerugian yang amat besar kepada syarikat terbabit. Malah sejak tahun 1960-an sehingga kini syarikat itu telah menjawab 200,000 pucuk surat yang diterimanya. Seterusnya, syarikat yang berpusat di Cincinnati ini menjemput ahli-ahli agama untuk menjelaskan kedudukan yang sebenar. Selain itu pula, kisah ini menjadi kajian penting dalam kajian komunikasi dan perhubungan awam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Persoalannya, jika di luar negara kerugian yang dikaitkan dengan khabar angin hanyalah berbentuk nilai mata wang, tetapi di negara kita masalah ini boleh merosakkan keharmonian yang sedia ada. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Khabar angin adalah satu pernyataan sahaja dan bukannya satu kenyataan yang jelas berdasarkan kepada fakta. Kita mestilah bertanggungjawab kerana kita sendiri yang akan rugi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;* KHAIRUL ANUAR MASUAN ialah pensyarah di Jabatan Psikologi, Universiti Islam Antarabangsa.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-938971958098554133?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/938971958098554133/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=938971958098554133' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/938971958098554133'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/938971958098554133'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/01/psikologi-khabar-angin.html' title='Psikologi Khabar Angin'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-6301056163625359415</id><published>2008-01-02T19:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:21.331-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Umum'/><title type='text'>Happy New Year 2008</title><content type='html'>Happy New Year my dear friends!!!

Walaupun, setiap individu mempunyai reaksi yang berbeza atau berubah-ubah, kesan bencana seperti banjir sering kali menyebabkan kesan psikologi dan emosi yang membimbangkan.  Apatah lagi jika bencana tersebut menyebabkan kematian. Mangsa korban banjir dilaporkan semakin meningkat dan menjadi kebimbangan banyak pihak. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walaupun bantuan kepada mangsa banjir seperti bantuan keperluan asas sama ada dalam bentuk makanan, pakaian, tempat tinggal dan keperluan harian amat penting dalam mengurangkan tekanan, pertolongan untuk mengurangkan kesan psikologi dan emosi mangsa banjir juga perlu difikirkan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selalunya, dalam mana-mana bencana, bantuan yang diutamakan terlebih dahulu ialah bantuan yang memenuhi keperluan asas dan juga keselamatan mangsa. Keselamatan nyawa adalah perkara yang paling utama diberikan perhatian dalam pengurusan bencana. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bantuan dalam bentuk mengurangkan tekanan psikologi dan emosi selalunya diberikan selepas bantuan asas ini dipenuhi. Ia juga adalah untuk membantu mangsa bencana menerus dan mengurus kehidupan dengan lebih baik selepas sesuatu bencana berlaku.&lt;br /&gt;Pihak kerajaan melalui agensi-agensinya dan badan-badan bukan kerajaan (NGO)bertindak proaktif dalam menyalurkan bantuan kepada mangsa banjir seperti mana yang berlaku sekarang. Bantuan ini ternyata dapat mengurangkan bebanan yang dihadapi oleh mangsa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bencana seperti gempa bumi, banjir, ribut taufan dan tanah runtuh membawa bersama-samanya kesan berbentuk nyata dan tidak nyata. Kesan nyata antara lainnya ialah seperti kerosakan harta benda, pencemaran, kematian. Manakala kesan tidak nyata boleh berlaku dalam konteks kesan psikologi, emosi, mental (fikiran). Perubahan tingkah laku juga berlaku akibat daripada sesuatu bencana.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kesan bencana juga bergantung kepada beberapa faktor antara lainnya seperti magnitud kejadian, jangka masa kejadian, bantuan-bantuan yang diperoleh semasa banjir. Selain daripada itu, golongan seperti warga emas, kanak-kanak, masyarakat berpendapatan rendah lebih menghadapi kesan bencana. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kesan bencana seperti banjir boleh mengganggu kehidupan jika tidak ditangani dengan baik. Walaupun bantuan dari aspek keselamatan dan memenuhi keperluan asas harian amat membantu dalam mengurangkan tekanan mangsa banjir, bantuan berbentuk mengurangkan tekanan psikologi dan emosi juga wajar diberikan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Dr. Sapora Sipon ialah pensyarah kanan, Program Kaunseling, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-2274903933949236408?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/2274903933949236408/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=2274903933949236408' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2274903933949236408'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/2274903933949236408'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2007/12/psikologi-mangsa-bencana-alam_20.html' title='pSIKOLOGI MANGSA BENCANa ALAM'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-8577785663516196211</id><published>2007-12-20T04:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-08-09T17:58:21.334-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Psikologi'/><title type='text'>Differences</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;D i f f e r e n c e s&lt;br /&gt;By&lt;br /&gt;E r n e s t E. M e a d o w s&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Client Centered Therapy [CCT] and Person Centered Approach [PCA] are different.  CCT came first.  It was the rootstock of PCA.  Carl Rogers described it in 1957 as necessary and sufficient for therapeutic change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carl, himself, moved beyond therapy.  He quit doing it.  He focused on world peace, education, personal power, personal partnerships and other applications.  He stopped doing therapy himself.  He would continue to train therapists.  He changed from Client-Centered Therapy to Person Centered Approach.  I notice that Brian Thorne in your journal noted Carl’s shift in his later years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In recent years, I have had the benefit of wise criticism, for which I am grateful.  The basis of criticism has been how closely my work adheres to the work of Carl Rogers.  Carl’s work froze in many minds as he was in 1957, when he was at the height of his work in therapy.  My work is not in the realm of therapy.  It is in organizations.  The therapeutic model of Carl does not work in this setting.  Relationships at work are not helping relationships.  In therapy, the client gives the therapist money.  In exchange, the therapist uses congruence, empathy, and unconditional positive regard on behalf of the client.  In organizational relationships, the person, the self uses congruence, empathy and unconditional positive regard on behalf of the self, not on behalf of the other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is confusion in the legacy of psychologist, Carl Rogers.  He is the most influential psychologist of all time.  His psychological system is more widespread and has had more impact than any other.  This influence occurred without the support of any institution of our civilization, not government, not church, not education, not business, not family.  It was like Topsy, it “just growed."&lt;br /&gt;The confusion is this.  Many folks use the terms that he used [Client Centered Therapy and Person Centered Approach] interchangeably.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the La Jolla conference room, in the early ‘70’s, I watched Carl shift from the former to the latter.  No one else in the room shifted with him, including me.  We began to use the term, “Person Centered Approach."  We did not perceive his shift.  He moved from a special model for therapeutic relationships.  He turned to a general model for all relationships. His vision broadened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, the confusion remains.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On page six, a table compares Client Centered Therapy and Person Centered Approach.  Take a look at it for a while and then I will say more about it.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Client Centered Therapy&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Person Centered Approach&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Special Model for therapeutic relationship&lt;br /&gt;Therapist &lt;-- --&gt; Client&lt;br /&gt;Helping Relationship&lt;br /&gt;Core Conditions used on behalf of client&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;General Model for all relationships&lt;br /&gt;Self &lt;-- --&gt; Other&lt;br /&gt;Everyday [Non Helping] Relationships&lt;br /&gt;Core Skills used on behalf of self&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Necessary and sufficient conditions for &lt;br /&gt;therapeutic change&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  Psychological Contact [in relationship]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  Client not congruent&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  Therapist is congruent [willing and able]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  Therapist is empathic [willing and able]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  Therapist regards clients unconditionally &lt;br /&gt;     positive [willing and able]&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;6.  Therapist communicates 3, 4, &amp; 5 to client&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Necessary and sufficient skills for successful &lt;br /&gt;conduct of relationships&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  Relationships internal, no "relationship" exists &lt;br /&gt;outside each other.&lt;br /&gt;[Primary = I -- Thou] (exists for it own sake)&lt;br /&gt;[Secondary = I -- You or I -- It] (exists for a purpose)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  Other's congruence, or any use of skill, is &lt;br /&gt;     irrelevant [Except in Community]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  Self may choose congruence [If able]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  Self may choose empathy [If able]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  Self may choose unconditional positive regard &lt;br /&gt;     [If able]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.  Communication of 3, 4, &amp; 5 to other is &lt;br /&gt;     unnecessary&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CCT and PCA are fundamentally the same and fundamentally different.  Both deal with congruence, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.  CCT is a special model for the therapeutic relationship.  It is between a therapist and her client.  It is a helping relationship.  The client pays the therapist money and the therapist uses congruence, empathy and unconditional positive regard on behalf of the client. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PCA is a general model for all relationships.  It is between a sovereign self and a sovereign other.  It is not a helping relationship.  The other does not pay the self money.  The self uses congruence, empathy and unconditional positive regard on behalf of the self, not on behalf of the other.  Relationships are internal.  The relationship of the self with the other exists within the skin of the self, for which the self is totally responsible.  The relationship of the other with the self exists within the skin of the other, for which the other is totally responsible.  This, and the “behalf of” rubric are the most difficult for CC Therapists to understand.  It takes a lot of spaced repetition before it becomes clear.  Once the practitioner makes the effort, and achieves insight, then this practitioner can be comfortable in both realms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In CCT the therapist uses congruence, empathy and unconditional positive regard as core conditions to create a climate in which the client can pursue her own therapeutic goals, in her own way.  This is necessary and sufficient for therapeutic change to occur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In PCA the self uses congruence, empathy and unconditional positive regard as core skills to achieve, effectively and efficiently, the goals of the self in relation to another.  These skills are necessary and sufficient for the successful conduct of relationships.  Success is the achievement of the goals of the self.  The other might use PCA skills to achieve, effectively and efficiently, the other's goals.  PCA assumes health.  CCT assumes non-health.  CCT helps the other.  PCA helps the self.  It avoids such issues as dependency, co-dependency, victimness, powerlessness, wallowing and insipidity.  It focuses on the self and its competence -- full functionality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are a number of PCA practitioners educated in this process.  It is a fairly lengthy process, involving about four years of intensive spaced repetition.  There is an international group of some of these practitioners who meet every few months in different countries.  A milestone of this group is to impact a critical mass of the world’s businesses by the year 2005.  They share what they know with one another, about PCA and other relevant topics, for free, without cost.  Each pays their own travel and housing expenses.  The working name of this group is the Pajaro Group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Business organizations are the dominant institution in our civilization.  They will create the social inventions of the next 35 - 40 years. There exists a significant opportunity to influence these social inventions with PCA, now.  As the demand for therapy worldwide diminishes, client centered therapists represent a resource block. This block is needed in the world of business organizations&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-8577785663516196211?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/8577785663516196211/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=8577785663516196211' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/8577785663516196211'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/8577785663516196211'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2007/12/differences.html' title='Differences'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-3407749729871688092</id><published>2007-11-27T20:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:46.480-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Program Y2Y'/><title type='text'>Program Pembangunan Belia Y2Y.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0z5CL14LfI/AAAAAAAAAC8/7Dv50YuY5ZA/s1600-h/27-10-07_apbm.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137755090856717810" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0z5CL14LfI/AAAAAAAAAC8/7Dv50YuY5ZA/s200/27-10-07_apbm.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0z5Cb14LgI/AAAAAAAAADE/aWd78g8ROR0/s1600-h/28-10-07_piramid+y2y.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137755095151685122" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0z5Cb14LgI/AAAAAAAAADE/aWd78g8ROR0/s200/28-10-07_piramid+y2y.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0z5Cb14LhI/AAAAAAAAADM/DHBwjJdqzSM/s1600-h/27-10-07_firdaus.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137755095151685138" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0z5Cb14LhI/AAAAAAAAADM/DHBwjJdqzSM/s200/27-10-07_firdaus.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;color:#ffffff;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Saya &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;berkesempatan untuk turut serta sebagai kaunselor kelompok bagi progrm belia daerah Seberang Perai utara yang diadakan di Kem Rimba di Pulau Pangkor dan juga Program Belia Dun Kg. Gajah di Akademi Pembangunan Belia (APBM) Tronoh, Perak. Program itu yang dianjurkan oleh Kementerian belia dan sukan dengan bantuan Majlis belia negeri adalah merupakan satu program yang sungguh baik dan patut diteruskan di masa akan datang. Ia merupakan satu program yang penuh dengan pengisian yang amat berguna kepada para beliawan dan beliawanis. Pelbagai reaksi dan tanggapan masyarakat terhadap golongan belia kini. Namun pada pandangan saya, dengan program sebegini, ia dapat meningkatkan potensi diri beliawan / wanis kita bagi meneroka potensi dan kelebihan diri, merancang perubahan dan seterusnya melaksanakan perancangan dengan penuh bersemangat dan juga berwawasan bagi memartabatkan bangsa.

In other words, the contents of the mind are determined by the culture you grow up in.  To illustrate this concept, Funder begins with "Amae," a concept related to mother-child relationships in Japan.  The idea is that children should be sweet and dependent upon their mothers.  This is a highly desirable characteristic.  If some child doesn't show it, mothers think something is wrong.  In the U.S., we often desire our children to be more independent.  How might these cultural differences shape the lives of children?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I. Culture&lt;br /&gt;Culture - customs, habits, beliefs, and values that shape emotions, behavior, and life patterns (Tseng).  Within the context of culture, we learn to communicate (language), how to think, and how to view reality.  Enculturation is the process of acquiring your native culture as a child.  Acculturation is the process of acquiring a new culture as an adult.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A. Why study culture?&lt;br /&gt;1. Limits on generalizability&lt;br /&gt;The theories built on data collected from one cultural group might not be applicable to members of another cultural group.  Do Erikson's stages apply to people in the rain forest?&lt;br /&gt;2. To avoid cross-cultural conflict&lt;br /&gt;We often get ourselves into trouble when we don't understand one another's cultural standards.  A woman from Denmark was once arrested in New York for leaving her baby outside a restaurant in a stroller alone.  This is a very common practice in Denmark.  They think that cold fresh air is good for babies.  &lt;br /&gt;3. To gain knowledge regarding the variety of human experience&lt;br /&gt;To really appreciate the way our own culture influences us, we need to see how other cultural influences work on people outside our own culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;B. Can we compare cultures?&lt;br /&gt;From a strict phenomenological view, it's impossible to really understand someone else's culture.  Deconstructionism - nothing in the world has any meaning or essence apart from the interpretations invented or "constructed" for it by each observer.  Another perspective is that of semiotics - humans like to invent and use systems of symbols.  To understand culture, we need to understand the symbols of the culture.  Most psychologists today would agree that we might have to sacrifice some specific understanding for some general knowledge.  "If we understood a rose in its own terms, botany would be impossible."  - Gleitman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;C. Characteristics of culture&lt;br /&gt;OK, so we're going to study cultural differences.  What have we uncovered so far?  Um, not a lot, actually. &lt;br /&gt;1. Complexity&lt;br /&gt;Are some cultures more complicated than others?  In what sense?  This is a rather controversial notion.&lt;br /&gt;2. Tightness&lt;br /&gt;To what extent do you have to follow rules and go along with the group, or are you encouraged to go your own way?  One could argue that in the United States we actively encourage individuals to go their own way, and to think for themselves.  There are limits on this, but as we study other cultures we find very different views on this.  Tightness is thought to be related to ethnic homogeneity (the existence of different ethnic groups in the same culture).  In the U.S. our ethnic homogeneity would be low, in Japan it would be high.  Tightness is also thought to be related to the density of the population.  Hong Kong, dense.  Wyoming, not dense.  You would predict greater tightness in Hong Kong than in Wyoming.  These is some support for this idea.  Genetically you'd expect about 12% of the population to be left-handed.  10-12% of Eskimos and Australian Aborigines are lefties.  6% of Western Europeans.  In one study 0% of the women entering the University of Hong Kong were lefties.&lt;br /&gt;3. Collectivism vs. Individualism&lt;br /&gt;To what extent are you encourage to think about the group, or look out for yourself?  In the U.S., we have a very individualistic culture.  In Asia, many cultures are more collectivistic.  In America, we choose our own mates.  In a collectivist culture, arranged marriages are common.  In the U.S., we try to have a separate room for each of our kids so they can sleep alone and be on their own.  Other cultures would think that expecting a 2-year-old to sleep in a dark room by themselves all night was child abuse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;II. Personality Traits&lt;br /&gt;So what impact does all of this have on personality?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A. Cultural Differences&lt;br /&gt;MMPI shows that the Chinese are more emotionally reserved, introverted, considerate, socially cautious, and self-restrained.  The NEO was given to Chinese in Hong Kong and to Chinese immigrants in Canada.  Canadian Chinese were more open, cheerful, and agreeable.  The differences between the two groups were greater the longer the immigrants had been in Canada.  The NEO has also been used to show that in 26 cultures women are more neurotic, agreeable, and open to feelings, while men are more assertive and open to ideas.  Surprisingly, the differences between men and women were stronger in Western countries (who often try to claim greater equality between the sexes).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;B. Thinking&lt;br /&gt;Studies of photo scanning have shown that Asians take in more of the whole, while Westerners are more likely to scan the foreground exclusively.  Asians are also less likely to express independent points of view than Americans.  Asian Americans had more trouble thinking while talking than European Americans (Kim, 2002).  Perhaps because the Asian Americans put more thought into what they're saying (they're concerned about saying anything offensive).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;C. The Self&lt;br /&gt;1. Self-regard&lt;br /&gt;High in the U.S., Japanese more likely to connect well-being with the group, Japanese become more engaged in the face of failure, Canadians disengage and insist the task is not important.&lt;br /&gt;2. Consistency&lt;br /&gt;Less consistent behavior in collectivist cultures.  In other words, in Japan they are so concerned about the group that they are more likely to change their behavior depending upon who is around them.  Two types of consistency:&lt;br /&gt;a) Absolute&lt;br /&gt;Individual variation from one situation to another.&lt;br /&gt;b) Relative&lt;br /&gt;Individual variation relative to others placed in a similar context.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;D. Religion&lt;br /&gt;These differences make sense when you think about how one's religion influences one's world view.&lt;br /&gt;1. Buddhism&lt;br /&gt;It isn't all about you.  When a tree falls in the forest, and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?  Obviously yes, if you believe that the world exists beyond your perception.  In the West, we might be inclined to say "no" or "who cares."  "I think, therefore I am."  To a Buddhist this statement puts too much emphasis on personal experience.  To the Buddhist it's all about outside forces - the body, nature, others, culture.  To the Buddhist there is no unchanging soul at the center of things.  They see themselves as part of something much larger.  The present is comprised of equal parts past and future.  Nothing lasts forever.  There is more of an emphasis on compassion, sharing, humility.  In the West it's all about independence, ambition, and pride.&lt;br /&gt;2. Values&lt;br /&gt;William Tyndale translated the Bible into English.  He thought it was important for everybody to read the Bible and figure out their beliefs for themselves.  Others before him had done this, but his translation occurred at the time of the printing press, and so was very influential.  The folks in charge at the time weren't big on the idea, and so Tyndale was strangled and then burned (I guess people were more thorough back then).  In many ways you can point to Tyndale's life as a big turning point in Western culture.  It can be argued that Catholicism is more collective than Protestantism, which puts more of an emphasis on individualism.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-3662439292790305204?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/3662439292790305204/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=3662439292790305204' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/3662439292790305204'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/3662439292790305204'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2008/07/cross-cultural-psychology.html' title='Cross Cultural Psychology'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-2187183650304584785</id><published>2007-11-19T19:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:46.749-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lembaga Kaunselor'/><title type='text'>Counselor Registration</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0JcsA_rcnI/AAAAAAAAACs/xfyLTwHei48/s1600-h/Carl+Rogers.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5134768436406874738" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0JcsA_rcnI/AAAAAAAAACs/xfyLTwHei48/s320/Carl+Rogers.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0JcsQ_rcoI/AAAAAAAAAC0/pKnDxTUBT0M/s1600-h/Photo+24.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5134768440701842050" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/R0JcsQ_rcoI/AAAAAAAAAC0/pKnDxTUBT0M/s320/Photo+24.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Today..rasa amat lega kerana tepat jam 10.00 pagi tadi bertempat di Wisma Sime Darby KL, Saya telah melepasi satu ujian yang selama ini amat di takuti iaitu interview Lembaga Kaunselor.

The aim of an encounter group is to make it possible for people to treat each other in that direct and undefended way. For that reason it has sometimes been called the game of no game. And it explicitly suggests that the encounter with one's own real self is just as important as the encounter with other people. &lt;br /&gt;  Historically there have been three quite different versions of the encounter group, and this has made for confusion. The simplest form comes from Carl Rogers, and he calls it "basic encounter". Here people sit in a circle, usually on chairs, and interact almost entirely at a conscious verbal level. The role of the leader is simply to facilitate what is going on, to participate as a full human being, and to encourage people to be more honest and more self-disclosing. The leader sets up the same three conditions we noted earlier - empathy, genuineness and non-possessive warmth. &lt;br /&gt;  The main form of encounter which is most frequently used, however, comes from Will Schutz, and he calls it "open encounter". Here people also sit in a circle, but usually on cushions, because furniture gets in the way of physical action. There is much more emphasis on the body, and on energy. The basic rule for the leader is to go where the energy is. If the leader sees that some physical action would enable the person to go deeper into an experience, he or she will suggest such an action. So there is a great deal of movement in an open encounter group. In years gone by, an encounter leader might start off the group by actually suggesting some exercises to raise some issues and get the energy flowing, but this seems to be less common today. &lt;br /&gt;  The rules outlined earlier (Figure 2) are essentially the same as for encounter groups, and if you should go to an encounter group, this will provide all the hints you need to start. &lt;br /&gt;  Today there is an event called a microlab, also pioneered by Schutz, which consists entirely of a series of experiential exercises, but this should never be confused with an encounter group. &lt;br /&gt;  So an encounter group is an intense and unpredictable affair, where the leader is very active in suggesting ways of pursuing a person's problem, using techniques taken from gestalt, psychodrama, primal, psychosynthesis, healing, bioenergetics and anything else which may be useful. &lt;br /&gt;  The third form of encounter is much more specialised. It was developed by Chuck Dederich, and called "Synanon encounter". Here the whole group turn on one member and make him or her the target of attack. This can be a very useful approach in its original setting, which was a residential hostel for ex drug-addicts (or substance-abusers, as they are called nowadays). Many of these people are very withdrawn and shut-off and the Synanon approach can winkle them out and get them going. And the residential setting means that any adverse reactions on their part can be taken care of and treated properly, with a lot of care and love. Synanon itself unfortunately degenerated into a cult, but a similar approach was used very successfully at the Delancey Street Foundation in San Francisco. When used outside such a setting, however, this method is less effective and may actually be harmful, by leading to a lot of dropouts from the group, who are then not followed up. It can also be quite abusive, and we are more sensitive to this issue than people were in the 1960s and 1970s. &lt;br /&gt;  So it is open encounter which is the one you are most likely to come across in practice. And in a way it is very central to the whole humanistic approach. It is very flexible, and can move in many directions, depending on the group's needs. It can work on a conscious level, or can go deeply into unconscious material. Where there are two co-leaders of opposite sex, as often happens, it is very common for Oedipal material to emerge, for example. &lt;br /&gt;  As with most other of the humanistic approaches, the encounter group does not focus so much upon the group as a group, but more on individual work within the group. So at one time the focus will be on one person, at another time on another person, and the leader will usually continue to work with the one person until the particular point at issue is resolved in some way. The rest of the group will participate vicariously, following the rule that the deeper a person goes into his or her individual experience, the more universal will be the material which emerges. Members of the group may also be brought in to play roles helpful to the protagonist, or may speak or act spontaneously in ways which express their own response to what is going on. &lt;br /&gt;  Encounter groups are very good for working through interpersonal issues such as shyness, talkativeness, inability to express anger, difficulties in handling closeness, not knowing what to say to people and all that kind of thing, because the leader can encourage very direct confrontation on such matters. &lt;br /&gt;  It is not possible to have a leaderless encounter group, because of the very central and demanding role of the leader, but it is possible to have an encounter group where the leadership shifts from one person to another, either spontaneously or by design. &lt;br /&gt;  Because of its emphasis on directness and openness ("say what you mean and mean what you say") the encounter group quite often leads to experiences of getting in touch with the real self, which we saw before tend to be ecstatic. This is why Schutz's own groups were ofen called "joy groups". Unfortunately, some leaders have occasionally tried to go direct for joy, by emphasising peace and love all the time. This does not work, because the joy has to be real spontaneous joy if it is to be genuinely experienced at all. We are not in the peace and love game, we are in the reality game; and if we do justice to the reality and the real self, joy will come in due course, in its own way. &lt;br /&gt;  This also applies to spiritual experience in the group. It is not uncommon for people in encounter groups to have deep spiritual experiences, which show them that the boundaries of time, space and the self which they have taken for granted are questionable. But to aim deliberately at giving people such experiences is not wise. The basic value in an encounter group is truth, truth to one's own experience. Anything which interferes with this is less good in this context and is not real encounter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A GUIDE TO HUMANISTIC PSYCHOLOGY BY JOHN ROWAN&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-1926058651523236592?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/1926058651523236592/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=1926058651523236592' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1926058651523236592'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1926058651523236592'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2007/10/encounter-groups-humanistic-pov.html' title='ENCOUNTER GROUPS-HUMANISTIC POV'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-6490318663667054859</id><published>2007-09-28T16:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T17:00:26.258-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Universiti APEX'/><title type='text'>Tradisi Ivy atau Oxbridge</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Tradisi Ivy atau Oxbridge 25/09/2007 utusan&lt;br /&gt;Oleh NORDIN KARDI&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Usaha kerajaan Malaysia hendak mewujudkan sebuah dua universiti apex seperti yang dinyatakan dalam Pelan Strategik Pengajian Tinggi sangat merangsang fikiran. Mungkin rakyat Malaysia, terutamanya kalangan intelektual, berdebar menunggu apakah modeliti yang bakal digunakan oleh Malaysia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adakah Malaysia akan mencipta modelitinya sendiri bagi melahirkan universiti apex atau akan menyerah sahaja kepada pelbagai badan pengeluar ‘ranking’ seperti akhbar Times Higher Education Supplement (THES) dan banyak lagi. Raffles dalam Memoir Lady Raffles hampir dua ratus tahun yang lalu menyatakan bahawa beliau pernah bercadang mendirikan sebuah universiti di Malaya yang bukan hanya untuk Malaya sebaliknya untuk region yang melewati sempadan Malaya. Alasannya ialah wilayah ini tidak sekali-kali kekurangan tradisi ilmu tinggi berbanding apa yang ada di Eropah. Yang perlu ialah sebuah institusi yang boleh mengumpul ilmu tinggi di wilayah ini ke dalam suatu sistem, iaitu universiti. Jika pendapat Raffles ini diyakini juga oleh para pemimpin Malaysia sekarang dalam melihat pengajian tingginya, dijangka universiti apex Malaysia akan muncul dengan modelitinya sendiri.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sebagai panduan untuk mencari modeliti universiti apex Malaysia, kita mungkin boleh merujuk sekurang-kurangnya tiga modeliti universiti yang boleh dipanggil sebagai apex di dunia: model Bologna-Paris di Eropah, model Ivy League di Amerika Syarikat dan model Oxbridge di Great Britain. Meneliti model-model ini, kita akan menemui kepelbagaian asal-usul kewujudannya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Model Bologna-Paris menunjukkan kewujudannya berdasarkan keutamaan pengajian. Paris menekankan teologi kerana dia diwujudkan oleh kuasa gereja bagi melahirkan ahli agama, sementara Bologna menekankan ‘hujah’ atau reason yang kemudiannya mencipta undang-undang kanun. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bologna diwujudkan oleh golongan yang sudah sedia intelektual. Dari sana mereka menjadi universiti apex seawal 200 tahun sebelum Melaka dibuka. Jika ini modelitinya, universiti apex di Malaysia mungkin akan memilih sebuah universiti liberal arts dan sebuah universiti khusus atau teknikal. Kedua-duanya akan menyumbang kepada pembinaan tamadun hadapan Malaysia melalui dua jalur garisan selari, tetapi tidak sama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagi model Oxbridge pula, tradisinya penuh dengan tradisi persaingan. Oxford dilahirkan apabila rakyat England yang asalnya mahasiswa di Universiti Paris dihantar pulang, antaranya kerana ada konfrontasi istana di antara dua negara. Selain daripadanya, mereka ingin bebas daripada kekuasaan gereja terhadap universiti. Sebelumnya England tidak ada universiti. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Universiti Cambridge pula tertubuh daripada larinya mahasiswa dan guru di Oxford kerana sekali lagi inginkan kebebasan daripada kuasa mahkota. Oleh kerana sejarah yang demikian, persaingan sentiasa menjadi sengit. Jika modeliti ini pula dipilih oleh Malaysia, universiti apex ini nanti akan muncul atas perlumbaan sengit sesama universiti yang ada di Malaysia kini dan akan datang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Model Ivy juga sangat menarik diperhatikan. Universiti Ivy di Amerika Syarikat kini terkenal sebagai antara sepuluh universiti teratas dalam ranking dunia. Lapan buah universiti dikelompokkan dalam kumpulan ini iaitu Universiti Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Pennsylvania, Princeton dan Yale. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yang saya katakan menarik ialah konsep Ivy tidak berasal daripada kecemerlangan ilmiah sebaliknya adalah bermula daripada liga sukan. Oleh itu, berbeza dengan tradisi Oxbridge yang saling bersaingan idea, tradisi Ivy lebih berbentuk bagaimana mereka boleh bekerjasama menganjurkan sukan. Yang bersaing ialah sukannya tetapi mereka bersatu dari segi organisasi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Melalui kerjasama organisasi ini, mereka kemudian berjaya menjadi cemerlang dalam bidang ilmiah sehingga Lord Robins, yang mengkaji semula kedudukan pengajian tinggi di England, mengakui bahawa universiti di Amerika Syarikat, walaupun telah ditubuhkan oleh kuasa kolonial Inggeris, telah jauh berada di hadapan berbanding universiti negara bekas penjajahnya. Perlu diulang sebut bahawa tradisi Ivy tidak berasaskan tradisi persaingan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Satu perkara yang wajar diperhatikan ialah, kesemuanya – Paris-Bologna, Oxbridge dan Ivy tidak muncul melalui pengisytiharan kerajaan. Sebaliknya mereka muncul melalui proses yang sangat natural. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rakyat Malaysia menunggu adakah kerajaan akan mengisytiharkan universiti yang akan menjadi universiti apex seperti sebuah negeri di Malaysia pernah mengisytiharkan negeri itu sudah menjadi negeri maju sepenuhnya, atau sama seperti kerajaan mengisytiharkan beberapa universiti sebagai universiti penyelidikan tidak lama dulu. &lt;br /&gt;Walaupun cara seperti ini tidak begitu biasa berlaku di negara yang sudah maju sepenuhnya, ia tidak akan pelik jika berlaku di Malaysia dan ia bukanlah suatu kesalahan. Ini mungkin acuan kita dan kita tidak perlu rasa bersalah dengan cara itu kerana budaya kita memang kaya dengan tradisi ceremonial. Tentulah nanti akan ada acara gilang-gemilang untuk melancarkan universiti apex itu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beberapa modeliti yang telah saya kemukakan mungkin boleh menjadi panduan pemimpin kerajaan dalam membuat persediaan sebelum memutuskan bagaimana universiti apex Malaysia harus muncul. Jika model Bologna-Paris hendak dipilih, kerajaan boleh melihat beberapa alternatif. Antaranya mungkin kombinasi universiti awam-universiti swasta, kombinasi liberal arts-teknikal atau khusus, dua atau lebih universiti tertua, dan ada beberapa cara lagi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jika model Oxbridge hendak digunakan, mungkin boleh dicari apakah ada ideologi tertentu yang saling bertentangan antara universiti di Malaysia seperti ideologi ekonomi, ideologi agama, ideologi falsafah dan sebagainya. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tujuannya supaya negara akan sentiasa mendapat yang terbaik daripada dua aliran pendapat yang sentiasa berbeza dalam melihat pelbagai isu ilmu, kemasyarakatan dan keagamaan. Apabila negara berada di persimpangan, misalnya menghadapi kemelut ekonomi seperti yang pernah berlaku pada tahun 1997, dua universiti akan berperang bagaimana cara untuk menghadapi masalah itu. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apabila bajet dibentangkan, dua universiti ini akan sentiasa memberi pendapat yang bertentangan. Demikian pula dalam mengeluarkan fatwa keagamaan. Akhirnya negara boleh memilih yang paling sesuai dan praktikal untuk kesejahteraan rakyat.&lt;br /&gt;Kekuatan &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jika Malaysia ingin berinovasi dengan cara Ivy pula, mungkin kerajaan boleh menggabungkan beberapa universiti yang sudah sangat kuat. Bayangkan apa akan terjadi jika Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) dan Universiti Pertanian Malaysia (UPM), yang telah diakui kekuatan mereka dalam penyelidikan di Malaysia, digabungkan menjadi sebuah universiti sahaja dengan empat kampus berlainan. Jumlah pelajarnya akan menjadi 90,000 orang. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jumlah pensyarahnya yang juga saintis akan menjadi lebih 8,000 orang di bawah satu bumbung pentadbiran. Nilai aset keempat-empat universiti itu jika disecuritize akan bernilai lebih RM10 bilion. Universiti baru itu boleh berdiri sendiri dari segi kewangan bukan setakat seperti sekarang menyumbang 20 peratus untuk belanja operasi setiap tahun. Saya fikir universiti baru hanya memerlukan satu malam untuk mendapat tempat sepuluh universiti terbaik di dunia. Kerajaan Malaysia tidak perlu menunggu lama untuk hal ini terjadi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jika penggabungan ini berlaku, beberapa universiti lain di Malaysia juga mungkin sesuai digabungkan mengikut suatu cara tertentu. Contohnya, semua universiti yang muncul pada atau selepas tahun 1980 boleh digabungkan menjadi sebuah universiti yang mengamalkan sistem federal seperti sistem University of California, State University of New York (SUNY) dan sistem University of Wales.Ini bermakna, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak dan beberapa lagi universiti yang asalnya kolej universiti akan digabungkan menjadi sebuah universiti sahaja dengan sistem cawangan. Atau, suatu cara lain ialah semua universiti teknikal dengan diketuai oleh UTM akan bergabung menjadi sebuah universiti teknikal unggul seperti Universiti CALTEC atau yang boleh setara MIT di Boston.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pada kesudahannya hanya ada lima sistem universiti sahaja di Malaysia iaitu Sistem Universiti Nasional Malaysia atau ‘Malaysia National University System’ (UM, UKM, UPM, USM, UTM), Universiti Teknologi Mara, Sistem Universiti Malaysia Moden atau ‘Modern Malaysia University System’ (UUM, UMS, UNIMAS, UMT, UMAP dan lain-lain), Universiti Syarikat Berkepentingan Kerajaan atau Malaysia GLCs’ University (MMU, Universiti Petronas, Universiti Tenaga, Universiti Islam) dan universiti swasta. Bayangkan kekuatan lima sistem itu belayar (bukan bersaing) di pentas dunia. &lt;br /&gt;Cara berfikir begini mungkin asing bagi mereka yang sentiasa memikirkan persaingan seperti tinju satu lawan satu sesama sendiri dalam dunia akademik. Bagi mereka yang memilih untuk belayar di lautan biru yang luas, mereka akan melihat kekuatan bahtera universiti Malaysia melayari lautan ilmu dan bakal menemui sumber kekayaan yang baru. Saya percaya Timbalan Perdana Menteri yang dikatakan berminat dengan Strategi Lautan Biru dapat memahami cadangan ini. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adakah ini akan menghilangkan tradisi? Memang sebahagian tradisi itu akan hilang dan suatu tradisi baru akan terbina.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagaimana pula nilai sentimental? Untuk sementara, tentulah akan ada tangisan di sana-sini seperti hilangnya Bank Bumiputera yang kini menjadi CIMB atau seperti Guthrie dan Sime Darby yang akan mungkin mendapat nama baru di bawah Synergy Drive.

Malahan semasa kumpulan Al-Arqam diharamkan ramai juga yang agak ragu-ragu tentang kedudukan sebenar kumpulan ini.&lt;br /&gt;Sementelahan mereka ini seolah-olah berpegang kepada ajaran Islam yang benar. Besar kemungkinan kekeliruan ini berlaku kerana kita tidak mengetahui tentang ciri-ciri ajaran sesat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oleh itu tulisan ini mengajak pembaca mengenal pasti sesuatu kumpulan ajaran sesat, namun pengamatan melalui pakar-pakar agama perlu diseimbangi. Sebenarnya kewujudan kumpulan ajaran sesat berlaku di mana-mana di dalam apa jua agama di seluruh dunia.&lt;br /&gt;Malahan di Amerika Syarikat sendiri pun ada KAS yang begitu menggemparkan dunia. Contohnya, Branch Davidian yang dipimpin oleh David Koresh di Waco, Texas.&lt;br /&gt;Peristiwa pada tahun 1993 ini menjadi icon kepada kes-kes ajaran sesat dan menjadi satu kajian kes kepada banyak cabang ilmu termasuklah psikologi.&lt;br /&gt;Ia juga menjadi sangat penting dan mungkin juga mengejutkan kerana tindakan pihak ATF dan FBI di atas arahan Janet Reno agak keterlaluan sehingga menyebabkan ramai yang terkorban.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ramai ahli-ahli psikologi sosial berpendapat bahawa wujud satu corak yang seakan sekata dengan mana-mana KAS. Ciri-ciri tersebut ialah kongkongan fikiran, kod tingkah laku yang ketat, semangat kekitaan yang melampau, hidup secara communal atau amalan hidup perkampungan pemimpin yang berkarisma, dan juga dimasukkan unsur mitos dan magis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Di dalam KAS, kongkongan fikiran seolah-olah menjadi satu intipati yang paling penting di dalam gerakan mereka. Ini kerana pemimpin KAS akan memastikan bahawa segala apa yang diajarkan kepada pengikut diikuti secara total.&lt;br /&gt;Ini bermakna mereka juga menyekat segala cetusan-cetusan intelektual dan mereka akan menyekat segala pandangan alim ulama atau pakar-pakar keagamaan.&lt;br /&gt;Pemimpin akan mula mengumumkan kepada pengikut-pengikut bahawa mereka adalah pakar rujuk sebaris dengan ulama atau pakar keagamaan dan akhirnya mereka menjadi lebih tinggi dari nabi atau rasul atau di dalam agama lain pengasas agama itu sendiri.&lt;br /&gt;Contohnya, ada yang mengatakan dirinya Imam Mahdi atau di dalam agama Kristian merekalah Nabi Isa yang telah kembali ke dunia sepertimana David Koresh.&lt;br /&gt;Kod tingkah laku di dalam kumpulan KAS juga sangat ketat sehingga setiap gerak-geri pengikut seolah-olah telah dilatih sebegitu rupa.&lt;br /&gt;Pada pandangan orang luar ciri yang paling senang dilihat ialah cara pakaian mereka yang agak pelik.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ciri-ciri lain ialah cara mereka berinteraksi, seakan-akan dilakonkan oleh mereka.&lt;br /&gt;Namun begitu, kepada pengikut KAS mereka bangga kerana ini adalah lambang sebenar perkumpulan mereka.Apa yang lebih berbahaya ialah mereka mengatakan bahawa ia adalah cara hidup sebenar sesuatu agama. Jika diperhatikan seolah-olah merekalah kumpulan yang benar-benar menjunjung cara hidup sebenar beragama. Sekali gus ia menjadikan orang yang dangkal ilmu agamanya atau di dalam Islam, sejarah hidup Nabi Muhammad segera tertarik kepada KAS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu semangat kekitaan mereka adalah sangat tinggi. Kesetiakawanan mereka kepada anggota lain adalah juga kesetiaan kepada kumpulan dan pemimpin. Saya teringat kisah kumpulan mafia iaitu keluarga Gambino pimpinan mendiang Castellano yang mana di dalam kumpulan keluarga sebenar ialah perkumpulan mereka dan jika anak mereka nazak sekalipun mereka mendahulukan kumpulan mereka.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Di dalam KAS perkara serupa juga berlaku cuma ia juga melibatkan seluruh ahli keluarga mereka sepertimana Branch Davidian, Reverend Jim Jones, dan pelbagai kumpulan lagi termasuklah di Malaysia.Setiap KAS juga mengamalkan hidup communal atau menubuhkan cara hidup di dalam satu perkampungan. Istilah perkampungan di sini bukannya kampung tradisional tetapi mereka akan membina perkampungan sendiri dengan konsep dan tatacara yang disusun mengikut falsafah atau prinsip perkumpulan itu.&lt;br /&gt;Contohnya Reverend Jim Jones pada 1978 telah menubuhkan perkampungannya sendiri untuk tujuan kaderisasi dan mengamalkan prinsip hidup yang mereka anuti.&lt;br /&gt;Atau secara ringkas mereka ingin jauh daripada pandangan ramai dan jika sesiapa yang ingin mengambil tahu mereka dianggap musuh serta penceroboh. Selalunya jika diteliti kawasan yang dipilih terceruk ke dalam, bangunannya juga bersifat sementara sahaja dan seolah-olah tidak terurus. Mereka juga akan mengurangkan sebarang talian perhubungan keluar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bagi sesebuah KAS pemimpin yang mereka ikuti adalah seorang pemimpin yang berkarisma. Mereka dilihat sebagai pandai berhujah tetapi itupun berdasarkan kepada logik pemimpin mereka itu sahaja. Mereka ini suka dikaitkan dengan seseorang yang mulia contohnya di dalam agama Islam Al Mahdi dan di dalam agama Kristian Jesus the Savior. meskipun ucapan mereka penuh dengan rhetoric tetapi kepada pengikut mereka ia tidak membosankan atau mereka sendiri seolah-olah telah terkatup mulutnya untuk bertanya. Ini kerana pemimpin mereka akan menunjukkan kemarahannya jika ada soalan-soalan yang agak intelektual. Pemimpin mereka sendiri akan menyahkan ahli kumpulan sebegini tetapi dengan amaran yang sangat keras seperti ancaman bunuh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unsur yang paling penting sekali di dalam KAS ialah dimasukkan unsur-unsur mitos dan juga magis. Unsur mitos ini akan menyebabkan ahli kumpulan merasakan perkumpulan adalah istimewa berbanding masyarakat mereka. Malahan ketua kumpulan akan menunjukkan atau berhujah betapa mereka ini terpilih. Ada di antaranya menggunakan sihir untuk menunjukkan kelebihan mereka. Pengikut menjadi terpaku akan kehebatan ketua mereka. Ada juga yang kononnya menggunakan kuasa psikik lantaran mereka kelahiran terpilih daripada keturunan terpilih pula untuk mengabui pengikut. Selain itu modal yang selalunya digunakan ialah kiamat semakin menjelang dan mereka akan bersedia menghadapinya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kitaran dan Perkembangan Kumpulan:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kesemua faktor di atas saling bergandingan untuk mencetuskan perkumpulan ini menjadi kumpulan yang besar. Sayugia diingat bahawa setiap perkumpulan ini ada kitarannya sendiri. Kitaran tersebut melalui proses pengenalan, penubuhan, pengukuhan, peringkat kritikal dan akhirnya pembubaran. Pada peringkat pengenalan kumpulan mereka agak kecil tetapi pemimpin menegaskan gagasan yang mereka tubuhkan adalah jelas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peringkat penubuhan pula, mereka mula memilih barisan pemimpin yang selalunya diserahkan kepada ahli awal. Peringkat pengukuhan pula mereka mula merekrut seramai ahli yang mungkin. Setakat ini ia agak sukar untuk dikesani jika mengikut lunas pertubuhan apatah lagi jika ia didaftarkan kepada Pendaftaran Pertubuhan. Namun kepada orang yang tinggi ilmunya di dalam keagamaan akan segera mengenal pasti riak-riak ajaran sesat. Ia senang dikesani oleh ilmuwan ini kerana pemimpin mereka seperti tikus ternampak kucing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dia menjadikan pakar agama ini sebagai antogonis dan menidakkan keilmuwannya. Di samping ini mereka akan melebarkan lagi kekarutan dan ketahyulan untuk mengikat hati pengikutnya lantas merendahkan ilmuwan tadi. Jika ilmuwan ini kebetulan masih ada di dalam kumpulan ini mereka akan mengadakan perkumpulan tanpa ilmuwan ini tadi. Tujuannya untuk menyisihkan ahli kumpulan dengan ilmuwan ini tadi dan supaya gerakan pemimpin ini tidak dikesani.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seterusnya pada peringkat kritikal pula, pemimpin mungkin menyedari bahawa segala penipuan mereka telah mula dikesani oleh segelintir ahli yang waras. Ini dikesani oleh pemimpin apabila melihat pengikut ini mula bertanya soal-soal asas agama, tetapi malangnya pemimpin ini tidak dapat menjawab. Malahan untuk menutup kepincangan dia akan menyuruh orang lain menjawab bagi pihaknya. Jurang antara rasional dan tahyul makin ketara. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pada peringkat kritikal ini jugalah pemimpin KAS akan mencanangkan tentang kiamat yang hampir berlaku. Pemimpin akan acapkali menyatakan bahawa pengikut-pengikut yang setia adalah pilihan Tuhan untuk berjuang. Selain itu, mereka akan diumumkan sebagai penyelamat dunia yang kotor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seterusnya ialah peringkat pembubaran. Pada peringkat ini segalanya akan terpampang di depan TV atau akhbar-akhbar utama. Selalunya ia akan dikaitkan dengan keganasan. Keganasan ini termasuklah membunuh diri atau lebih bersifat ofensif.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Psikologi Ahli Kumpulan:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sementara itu pula psikologi ahli kumpulan juga boleh dicirikan mengikut prinsip psikologi. Ahli kumpulan akan merasakan bahawa mereka adalah ahli eksklusif. Mereka adalah anggota masyarakat yang terpilih untuk menyertainya.&lt;br /&gt;Selain itu pula mereka merasakan bahawa mereka telah diselamatkan oleh pemimpin KAS. Mereka mula menganggap dirinya lebih mulia daripada orang lain atau Islam mereka lebih Islam daripada orang lain. Inilah yang menyebabkan mereka lebih terikat kepada perkumpulan mereka kerana di sanalah kemuliaan. Jika mereka keluar psikologi mereka ialah kemuliaan bertemu kekotoran. Lantas mereka mula berlagak sebagai penyelamat kepada dunia kononnya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malahan pakar agama atau alim-ulama adalah kotor belaka. Pernah juga berlaku pengikut KAS ini mendakwa Tanah Suci Haram adalah lebih kotor daripada persekitaran perkampungan mereka.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kesimpulan:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saya secara amat simpati kepada ahli-ahli KAS kerana pada mulanya mereka ini benar-benar ingin mencari kebenaran.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cuma kadangkala mereka dangkal terhadap ilmu agama menjadikan mereka sebagai mangsa pemimpin KAS. Lantaran kedangkalan serta motivasi untuk menjadi patuh kepada agama mereka ini telah dipergunakan untuk kepentingan lain pula. Oleh itu pendidikan agama adalah amat penting kerana ia dapat mengekang diri kita dari dipengaruhi oleh mana-mana individu yang cuba menyemai pengaruh dan mencari pengikut kepada satu aliran atau fahaman baru. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;KHAIROL ANUAR MASUAN, Pensyarah Psikologi di Jabatan Psikologi, Universiti Islam Antarabangsa, Gombak.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-3467596862106801469?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/3467596862106801469/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=3467596862106801469' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/3467596862106801469'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/3467596862106801469'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2007/09/psikologi-ajaran-sesat.html' title='Psikologi Ajaran Sesat'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-7023912790737154480</id><published>2007-09-05T15:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T16:29:53.032-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Book Abstract'/><title type='text'>Kesejahteraan Manusia-perspektif psikologi</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBvVg2rEGI/AAAAAAAAAQ4/3XwIpxOtJqc/s1600-h/BUKU+ROHANY.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBvVg2rEGI/AAAAAAAAAQ4/3XwIpxOtJqc/s320/BUKU+ROHANY.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242312381646442594" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kesejahteraan Manusia: Perspektif Psikologi. 2006. &lt;br /&gt;Penerbit UKM: Bangi. Rohany Nasir dan Fatimah Omar (sunt.) &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buku ini memberi pendedahan kepada pembaca mengenai kesejahteraan manusia daripada perspektif psikologi. Kesejahteraan manusia adalah satu aspek penting dalam kualiti kehidupan manusia. Setiap individu memainkan peranan penting di dalam kehidupannya sama ada di dalam rumah sebagai ibu, bapa, suami, isteri, anak datuk dan nenek serta di luar rumah sebagai pekerja, jiran mahupun ahli masyarakat. Peranan mereka itu saling kait-mengait. Oleh itu, jika terdapat masalah pada salah satu peranan sudah pasti akan menjejaskan peranan-peranan yang lain. Mengkaji kesejahteraan manusia dengan menggunakan pendekatan psikologi yang meliputi aspek kognitif dan afektif yakni perasaan negatif atau positif tentang kehidupan semakin diutamakan di negara maju dan di negara yang sedang membangun. Dengan memahami sesuatu masalah individu dari segi pengalaman menghadapi sesuatu masalah dan persepsi mereka yang berbeza di antara seorang individu dengan yang lain berhubung dengan sikap, persepsi dan gaya menangani sesuatu masalah itu. Oleh itu, mudahlah dirancang intervensi psikologi untuk menangani sesuatu masalah sesuai dengan keperluan individu atau sesuatu kelompok manusia. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tujuan buku ini ialah  untuk mengumpul hasil kajian dalam bidang psikologi yang dilakukan di dalam negara oleh penyelidik-penyelidik tempatan supaya boleh dimanfaatkan dengan melihat isu-isu dan masalah manusia daripada perspektif ilmu psikologi. Buku ini bukan hanya boleh dimanfaatkan oleh pembaca daripada bidang psikologi, bahkan sesiapa sahaja yang berminat untuk melihat isu-isu dan masalah manusia daripada perspektif psikologi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buku yang mengandungi 17 bab ini, merangkumi pelbagai isu berhubung dengan kesejahteraan manusia. Kandungan dalam buku memperlihatkan pentingnya pendekatan psikologi dalam meningkatkan kesejahteraan manusia. Perkhidmatan psikologi khususnya kaunseling bukan hanya untuk memulih, tetapi juga untuk pencegahan supaya kita dapat mempastikan individu mempunyai kehidupan yang berkualiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;ROHANY NASIR, Ph.

Salleh, Zuria Mahmud &amp; Salleh Amat. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Di Malaysia, bimbingan dan kaunseling diperkenalkan di sekolah secara rasmi pada tahun enam puluhan melalui program bimbingan kerjaya. Walau bagaimanapun pada masa itu bimbingan yang diberikan lebih menjurus pada kerjaya sahaja. Pada tahun 1972, Maktab Rendah Sains MARA menjadi kumpulan sekolah pertama yang memperkenalkan Program Bimbingan dan Kaunseling. Tujuan membimbing dan meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan pelajar ke arah kematangan sahsiah selaras dengan Falsafah Pendidikan Negara. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masalah tingkah laku di kalangan pelajar, terutama remaja memerlukan perhatian khusus. Perkembangan masyarakat yang mempengaruhi struktur institusi keluarga menyebabkan ramai remaja yang terbiar dipengaruhi unsur-unsur negatif. Masalah ini yang sepatutnya diselesaikan oleh keluarga, kini turut dipertanggungjawabkan kepada sekolah. Namun guru tidak dapat memperuntukkan banyak masa untuk kaunseling kerana tugas utamanya di sekolah ialah mengajar. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Untuk mengatasi masalah itu kini diwujudkan jawatan kaunselor yang ditugaskan khusus untuk membantu pelajar bermasalah di sekolah. Buku Bimbingan dan Kaunseling Sekolah yang ditulis lengkap dengan teori, prinsip dan kemahiran kaunseling boleh membantu guru memainkan peranan sebagai kaunselor untuk membantu pelajar.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AMLA MOHD SALLEH, Ph. D., adalah Profesor dalam bimbingan dan kaunseling kerjaya dan ZURIA MAHMUD, Ph. D., adalah Profesor Madya di Jabatan Asas Pendidikan, Fakulti Pendidikan, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. SALLEH AMAT adalah pensyarah, juga di fakulti yang sama.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-9157584886736168607?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/9157584886736168607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/9157584886736168607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2007/09/bimbingan-dan-kaunseling-sekolah.html' title='Bimbingan dan Kaunseling Sekolah'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SMBvt5P5fBI/AAAAAAAAARA/yws_mFvRXes/s72-c/BIMBINGAN+DAN+KAUNSELING+SEKOLAH.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-681751906620340863</id><published>2007-08-21T21:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T14:16:47.551-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><title type='text'>The Counselors Identity: What, Who and How?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/Rsu2FkVaw_I/AAAAAAAAABk/qbp_MaO1AXA/s1600-h/Photo+20.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101371884006196226" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 206px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="150" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/Rsu2s0VaxAI/AAAAAAAAABs/rp0nq5w0BLU/s200/iqbal+squat+ukm.JPG" width="354" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;" ...Suprisingly, counseling is not an easy concept to define.

As a therapist I know all too well that there are few children who grow up in such a loving, supportive, creative, and ethical environment. I carry the joys and burdens of such privilege. I enjoy the doors that have been opened to me professionally by being Carl’s daughter, and carry some of the legacy of keeping his work alive in order to bring his humanistic values and methods to a world full of conflict and violence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two years ago I lit the fire to honor my father’s centennial by putting the Carl Rogers Symposium 2002 on the calendar. (July 24-28 2002 in La Jolla, CA). Many others are also creating ceremonies and conferences, journals and bibliographies to further his principles. I applaud all that we can do, collaboratively, to remind the world that the answer to conflict is not violence. The answer lies deep in the roots of the causes that bring individuals to such desperation that they rage and kill. For those of us who live in the privileged and often misguided United States, I hope the recent tragedies of September 11th will be a wake-up call that our government has had policies that have devastated whole cultures. I hope the celebrations for Carl will honor his concern over world events and his beginning attempts to use the person-centered approach with high-level government officials such as the Rust Peace Project (C. R. Rogers, 1986) and diversity groups such as his work with Ruth Sanford in South Africa (Rogers and Sanford, 1987). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My own focus has been to giving an active life to Carl’s "Theory of Creativity" (C. R. Rogers, 1961, Ch. 19). In these times where conformity is being thrust upon us by governments, we urgently need strong individuals who are able to think and act creatively. Creativity threatens those who demand conformity. Dictators squelch self-expression and the creative process. They do not want their citizens to think for themselves or to be spontaneous, imaginative or self-determined. Thus, creativity is subversive to those who demand conformity to a political system. Carl was a very creative individual, himself. He personified the creative person who stays open to options, is flexible, and values individual differences. The conformist, on the other hand, is closed, rigid in his/her thinking, and follows the leader without using his/her self-knowledge or ability to discriminate. I believe that to maintain and foster democracy in our world we must be creative – that is, be able to play with ideas, see alternative solutions, and be able to listen empathetically to all sides. Carl was a master at this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Carl’s remarkably brief but concise chapter on creativity he discusses the urgent social need for the creative process to be awakened, and the person-centered conditions under which it can blossom. He states the conditions for fostering constructive creativity: the first is psychological safety, which includes accepting the individual as one of unconditional worth, empathic understanding, and providing a climate of non-judgment. The second condition is a climate for psychological freedom (C. Rogers, 1954). To these two conditions, I have added an third; offering stimulating and challenging experiences (N. Rogers, 1993, p. 14). To explain what I mean by this, I need to backtrack, a bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My expressive arts work evolved when I moved from Boston to California and asked my Dad if I could work with him. He was delighted, of course. I quickly designed a ten-day intensive workshop. We asked six to eight other staff to join us and we then co-created what was called the Person-Centered Approach workshops. Because of Dad’s appeal around the world, it was easy to get a huge crowd for ten days. These were international workshops during very experimental times. As staff we learned as much, or more, than the participants. Day after day the large group would sit talking about their lives, telling their personal stories full of emotional content – their tragedies, confusion, fear, and dilemmas. As staff, we were very good at reflecting their feelings and holding the safe space for these very personal moments. We also knew how to facilitate the confrontations people had with each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, because I am such a kinesthetic person, I became very restless and thought, "How can we sit here for three hours in the morning, three hours in the afternoon and three hours in the evening?" So, I finally said, "I have a studio room with art materials, and anybody who would like to find other ways of delving into these personal issues can come and join me. We will experiment with non-verbal ways to talk about all the stories we are sharing, and we will use movement, art, sound and drama for self-exploration." I had several colleagues who were also interested in exploring this with me. We created playtimes that were deeply meaningful to people. We had very few guidelines. We just kept learning from what we were doing. The way to become a good facilitator is to constantly get evaluations and feedback from participants and ask, "What are we learning? What works and doesn’t work?" We found that our ability to play, to use costumes, drama, and role playing as well as using art materials was very meaningful to people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I now call "the Creative Connection"(N. Rogers, 1993, p. 27-130) evolved. We discovered that using movement, visual art, sound and journal writing in sequence with very little verbalization helped us tap into our unconscious and our archetypal persona, bringing insight to our personal issues. As facilitators we suggested possibilities for these experiments, but in true person-centered fashion (C. R.Rogers, 1970, p. 43-59), we always checked this out with the individual involved. The client or the group member may choose to participate, or not, and we follow her lead. We created a safe, non-judgmental environment, giving people both stimulus and permission to take off their social masks to discover inner truths. After an hour or more of this engaging creative process, we talk about what we had learned through our art. This was the time for deep, empathic listening. We never interpret a person’s art. I am as adamantly opposed to analytic art therapy as Carl was to analytic psychotherapy (Barton, 1974).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Experiments or experiences designed to involve the individual in the expressive arts give that person the opportunity to engage in the magic of the creative process and learn by doing (N. Rogers, 1993). This is where I feel my work has been an expansion of Carl’s work. For a while I felt I was being a bit rebellious to take his work and actually create exercises that would stimulate people to use art and movement, sound and journal writing for self-expression. I had worked with my father for many years, and taken classes from him, and knew his philosophy and methods very well. I had incorporated them into my own way of being. So, to do something a little different was a difficult process for me at the beginning. Then I realized I was actually breathing life into his theory of creativity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One further point: using the expressive arts gives people a safe place to explore their shadow side. In my book, The Creative Connection (1993), I spend one chapter talking about accepting the shadow, embracing the light. The shadow is the part we have repressed in our lives (Zweig 1991). Some people have denied their anger and rage for a lifetime, others have hidden or denied their ability to love or be compassionate. Using movement, sound, color and drama offer opportunities to first become aware of one’s shadow, and then to explore it fully through many media. Fear and grief are often more easily expressed in paintings or movement than in words. Rage can be splashed on large sheets of paper until some of the energy has been released and transformed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of us who knew Carl realize that he had difficulty acknowledging or expressing his anger in person. (He could do it in letter writing, occasionally). It should not surprise anyone, therefore, that I was eager to create a person-centered environment where people could delve into these feelings of rage or fear, or shame, in non-verbal as well as verbal forms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With humankind in such a volatile state of rage, violence, loss, grief, and confusion, coupled with outpourings of generosity, compassion and love, I feel the place for person-centered expressive arts therapy is timely. It is timely for those of us who are capable of facilitating the healing of the grief, anger and pain and the sense of hopelessness. It is time for us to move into communities to help people find their sense of empowerment through the arts. The creative process is a life force energy. If offered in a safe, empathic, non-judgmental environment, it is a transformative process for constructive change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is Carl Rogers who has offered us the theory and methods in the person-centered approach that gives us the firm foundation on which to build. One of his greatest qualities was his ability to stay open to new ideas and learn from his own experience. In celebrating his life, I hope we will be inspired by his way of being.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7715742583934442941-1491642288660073342?l=pro-counseling.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/feeds/1491642288660073342/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7715742583934442941&amp;postID=1491642288660073342' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1491642288660073342'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7715742583934442941/posts/default/1491642288660073342'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pro-counseling.blogspot.com/2007/07/carl-rogers.html' title='CARL ROGERS-'/><author><name>Abdul Moeis Abdul Halim K.B (Mal)</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05357709923094791353</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ePK6sYa0nPs/SKAT2nO6VtI/AAAAAAAAAMo/6MMrzKlirl8/s1600-R/gambar%2Bkonvo%2Bukm%2B049.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7715742583934442941.post-7936076200607403411</id><published>2007-07-18T05:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T17:01:42.056-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Drug Counseling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Artikel Kaunseling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Penyalahgunaan Dadah'/><title type='text'>CHASING THE HIGH</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chasing the High: A Firsthand Account of One Young Person's Experience with Substance Abuse.

From a harrowing night on a rooftop, gravely ill and in withdrawal, Keegan tracks back through his young-adult years spent addicted to drugs, primarily heroin. Now clean and sober in his early thirties, Keegan remembers with dark honesty his slide from experimentation to addiction. This title is more than just a memoir, however. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coauthored with a psychiatrist and produced in conjunction with the Adolescent Mental Health Initiative, the book provides a wealth of up-to-date information about the neurobiology of addiction and explains why teens are at a higher risk for drug abuse than are adults. Detailed descriptions of rehab and recovery approaches and lists of resources for further help are also included, while short excerpts from other addiction memoirs add to Keegan's wrenching story. Teens struggling with addiction are directly addressed, but the publisher is marketing the book to the adults in their lives who are trying to help them. -Gillian Engberg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YA/S: Teens who suffer from addiction will find inspiration and resources here.

After spending nine months at a treatment center, Evan has discovered he can live his life clean and sober--and have fun doing it. Details of Evan's storey are presenteD. This teen is fighting drug addiction-and getting his life back.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His name is Evan. He's 19, and he's slowly building a new life without drugs. After spending nine months at a treatment center, Evan has discovered he can live his life clean and sober-and have fun doing it. He has learned to replace the high from drugs with a healthier feeling, such as the rush he gets from playing extreme sports and the satisfaction of writing and playing a great guitar tune.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now Evan wants to tell his story. He wants to inspire others to fight their addictions. His struggle with drugs began when he was in middle school. "I started at age 13," he told Extra. "IVe used a lot of drugs ... a lot of cocaine, crack, psychedclics, pretty much everything except meth [methamphetamine]." Evan's drug abuse continued for five years. During that time, he was expelled from school and arrested. At his lowest point, his parents were ready to kick him out of their home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hitting Rock Bottom&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"You don't really understand it until it happens in your home," says Evan's father. Pat, about his son's drug addiction. He can still remember having to make the terrible decision to kick Evan out of the house. His son was out of control.&lt;br /&gt;"Drugs turned me into a bad person," Evan says. "I was lying, stealing, and cheating to get my drugs. My life went downhill fast. At first it was fun, but then it got to where I couldn't get out of bed without heroin."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Evan began using, he was able to buy drugs with money he had saved. After that money ran out, he started dealing drugs to sustain his habit. When he was 16, he was arrested in a police raid on a crack house. 'That's when life got really bad. I ran out of money, so I was constantly ripping people off to get my dope."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We decided we had to send him somewhere," says Evan's mom, Cathy. Evan's older sister, Erin, called a treatment hotline. The family was referred to a team of drug counselors at Sober College Academy near Los Angeles, California. The counselors advised Evan's parents to give him a choice: Either get help or find another place to live. Three days later, Evan was in Sober College.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cleaning Up&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sober College is a place where people go to learn how to fight their drug addictions. Evan showed up there in bad shape. "1 had a bad attitude," he recalls.&lt;br /&gt;The counselors worked with Evan to help him understand that addiction is a sickness. Their 12-step program helped him learn how to fight that sickness. The staff also showed Evan healthy ways to have fun. They took him on outings to try cool activities, such as indoor skydiving, playing paintball, and surfing. "They were all rad," says Evan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, nine months later, Evan is back home in Utah. He's feeling much stronger. "Fm getting ready to be a productive member of society," he says. Evan has started taking his life seriously. He enjoyed playing guitar when he was using drugs, but now he's focusing on it as a possible career. He has written 12 songs and says playing the guitar "is definitely how I express myself."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evan's father says the guitar playing is an example of how his son's life has improved. "He thought you had to be on drugs to play well," he says, "but now his guitar work has gotten so much better."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evan's advice for people who are struggling with drugs is simple. "You have to go for treatment," he says. "You have to have a positive attitude."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KNOW YOUR WORDS&lt;br /&gt;The words defined here are in the story above.&lt;br /&gt;treatment (TREET . ment) care&lt;br /&gt;inspire (in .

Dalam membicarakan tentang orang Melayu, kita sudah semestinya akan berhadapan dengan pe!bagai masalah. Antaranya termasuklah masalah-masalah seperti yang pernah dihadapi oleh dua penulisan yang kontroversial tentang orang Melayu: Revolusi Mental (1966) dan Dilema Melayu (1970).
