Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立屏東教育大學 === 教育心理與輔導學系碩士班 === 102 === The purpose of this study is to explore the thing the preoccupied attached intimate partner violence client left unsaid, the reasons of nondisclosures, the effects of nondisclosures, the situations or conditions in which the client would like to disclose about the things left unsaid in counseling, and the relationship between things left unsaid and the client working alliance. The researcher employs single-case study and the counselor-client dyad has eight counseling sessions. After each session, the client and the counselor were asked to complete the Working Alliance Inventory (WAI, Horvath & Greenberg, 1989; Chinese trans. C.-F. Chen, 1995), and then the client participated in the Interpersonal Process Recall interview conducted by the researcher. The major findings are as follows: 1. The things the client left unsaid fall into nine categories: The anxiety of self-presentation, the hidden reactions and feelings about interventions, the focus on others, the ambivalence and conflict about disclosing, the expectation of rapport counseling relationship, the concern about security and confidentiality, the feelings about nondisclosure, the feelings about termination, and the upset emotion. 2. The result shows that the reasons of nondisclosure fall into six categories. The effects of nondisclosures fall into seven categories, and the situations or conditions client would like to disclose about things left unsaid fall into eight categories. 3. The development of the client and the counselor’s working alliance is discrepant in the first three sessions, but they turn to consistently high in the latter five sessions. 4. The result shows that the things left unsaid, the reasons of nondisclosures, the effects of nondisclosures, and the situations or conditions the client would like to disclose about the things left unsaid are associated with the three components of working alliance: Task, Bond and Goal. The association is discussed in this study. Suggestions for counseling practices and recommendations for future research are discussed and proposed.
