The author investigated the relationships among the racial identity development status levels (preencounter, dissonance, immersion/resistance, and internalization) of 121 Native American college students and their preferences for counselor role (audience giving, approval giving, advice giving, and relationship giving). Participants most preferred a relationship-giving counseling style followed by an advice-giving style. The Internalization variable significantly predicted preferences for the audience-giving, advice-giving, and relationship-giving counselor roles. Implications for college counselors are provided.
