Assessing Multicultural Competence: Perceived versus Demonstrated Performance

This study compares self-report scores generated by the Multicultural Awareness Knowledge Skills Survey-Counselor Edition-Revised (B. S. K. Kim, B. Y. Cartwright, P. A. Asay, & M. J. D'Andrea, 2003) with independent observer ratings of actual videotaped demonstrations of multicultural competence in response to a preselected case vignette. Implications for counselor training and future research are discussed.
