The potential for unification of rehabilitation counseling professional associations has been a conceptual debate for the past several decades. In a previous article of this special issue, Phillips et al. (2022) provided quantitative data to capture the opinions of professionals on the issue of consolidation. The present study builds on those findings by providing a qualitative analysis of the rationale provided for each response from not only professional association members, but the broader rehabilitation counseling community. The analysis provides clarity about stakeholders’ rationale regarding their beliefs on rehabilitation counseling professional association consolidation. Responses were analyzed by group according to whether participants were in favor of, opposed to, or uncertain about consolidation. The majority of respondents supportive of consolidation felt it offered a pathway toward internal unity and external validation of the profession, while the main rationale from those opposed to consolidation centered on loss of distinctiveness of individual associations. Overwhelmingly, those who were undecided on consolidation cited lack of familiarity as a barrier to providing a decisive response. Implications for these results are presented.

Engagement in addictive behaviors such as social casino gaming (SCG), gambling, and alcohol and drug use has a significant negative impact on physical and mental health and classroom attendance, leading to an academic failure. This study aimed to (a) determine the prevalence of SCG, gambling, alcohol use, and drug use in a sample of 390 college students; (b) examine the relationship among SCG, gambling problems, alcohol and drug use, and class attendance problem using Pearson correlations and point-biserial correlations; and (c) evaluate the extent to which alcohol and drug use can explain the relationship between gambling problems and class attendance problem using parallel mediation analysis. SCG was found to be related to gambling problem and drug use problem. Gambling was found to be a predictor of alcohol and drug use problems. However, interestingly, SCG and gambling problems were not directly related to class attendance problem. The parallel mediation analysis confirmed students at risk for gambling problems were more likely to have alcohol use problems, and alcohol use problems led to poor class attendance. Rehabilitation services providers who work with college students should be mindful of the relationship among the addictive behaviors and class attendance problem and tailor rehabilitation services interventions.

Background In recent years state vocational rehabilitation agencies have adopted Motivational Interviewing (MI) to revitalize vocational counseling and guidance in the federal/state vocational rehabilitation system. Previous research shows that MI can promote a strong working alliance between the client and the therapist, which was associated with successful employment outcomes, job satisfaction for employed consumers, and a more positive outlook on future employment prospects for those who were unemployed.
