The authors present and empirically test a multivariate model of the use of mental health counseling services. Use of such services by 1st-year college students is directly a result of need for these services and willingness to use them. Beliefs about mental health services and demographic characteristics are not directly related to use, but indirectly affect use by influencing willingness to use. Implications for college counseling programs are discussed.

大学生使用心理健康服务的社会心理动态

作者提出并通过经验检验了心理健康咨询服务使用的多元模型。一年级大学生使用此类服务​​直接是对这些服务的需求以及愿意使用它们的结果。关于心理健康服务和人口统计学特征的信念与使用并不直接相关，而是通过影响使用意愿间接影响使用。讨论了对大学辅导计划的影响。
