In order to know the expectations of Japanese students towards counseling, and the possible effects of those expectations on the outcome of counseling, a comparison study with American students was conducted. A Questionnaire, a Counseling Problem Test and a Counselor Preference Test were administered to 185 Japanese and 72 American students. As a result, it was found that hypotheses were partly supported in that American students seemed to understand counseling in both SPS and psychological service concepts, while Japanese students seemed to understand it as some kind of advice-giving function. However, some similarities were also found: both groups preferred rather directive styles in the helping relationships and chose a friend as consultant. There might be another variable, in adolescents in particular, influencing expectations
