Abstract
ABSTRACT Profile analysis is a multivariate data analysis technique used to examine performance on tests, subtests, or scores by identifying profile pattern and shape. In this article, we provide a conceptual overview of profile analysis, highlight its utility to both counseling researchers and practitioners, and describe a general step-by-step procedure to conducting profile analysis using a counseling outcome-specific illustration. Best practice decision-making recommendations are provided at each step. Implications for counselors, counseling researchers, and counselor educators are provided.
期刊介绍：
Counseling Outcome Research and Evaluation (CORE) provides counselor educators, researchers, educators, and other mental health practitioners with outcome research and program evaluation practices for work with individuals across the lifespan. It addresses topics such as: treatment efficacy, clinical diagnosis, program evaluation, research design, outcome measure reviews. This journal also serves to address ethical, legal, and cultural concerns in the assessment of dependent variables, implementation of clinical interventions, and outcome research. Manuscripts typically fall into one of the following categories: Counseling Outcome Research: Treatment efficacy and effectiveness of mental health, school, addictions, rehabilitation, family, and college counseling interventions across the lifespan as reported in clinical trials, single-case research designs, single-group designs, and multi- or mixed-method designs.
