5083.112 Counseling multiracial/multi-heritage individuals, Oliver Lisa, San Jose State<br />

University, USA<br />

What society perceives to be a person's race/ethnicity may have a very powerful influence on the<br />

individual's racial/ethnic self-identification and identity formation. With the growing population <strong>of</strong><br />

multiracial/multi-heritage individuals in the world, counselors and educators need to be prepared<br />

to help multiraical/multi-heritage individuals to meet this daily challenge.<br />

5083.113 The pursuit <strong>of</strong> self-constructed goals in Chinese societies, Wei Chih-Fen, Taiwan,<br />

China<br />

In Chinese societies, people are expected to put priority on role responsibility over personal goals.<br />

Thus, the pursuit <strong>of</strong> self-constructed goals is encouraged only after individuals fulfill those<br />

social-constructed goals first. In this study, the main purpose was to examine the relationship<br />

between self-constructed and social-constructed goals above. Subjects had to respond to three<br />

scenarios. In each scenario, the self-constructed goal might be compatible or incompatible with<br />

social-constructed goal. When these two kinds <strong>of</strong> goals were compatible, it enhanced more<br />

positive emotions, and made the actor get more face and social support from family members. As<br />

the actor chose self-constructed goals instead <strong>of</strong> social-constructed ones, he might lose face and<br />

family’s support.<br />

Tianjin Conservatory <strong>of</strong> Music, China<br />

qualities are significant towards successful art management?’ 2. Questionnaire conducted amongst<br />

art workers concerning ‘What qualities mark a good art manager?’ 3. Testing the above 36<br />

experienced art managers with Cattell 16PF Questionnaire. Two conclusions can be made: first,<br />

findings from part one and two are highly correlated with that from part 3; second, qualities<br />

including extraversion, independence, openness to change, sensitivity and vigilance usually mark<br />

a good art manager.<br />

5083.115 Research on the leave-or-stay choice <strong>of</strong> college students in the time <strong>of</strong> SARS, Hong An,<br />

Qinhua He, Lang Chen, Shuyue Zhang, Beijing Normal University, Beijing, China<br />

This research investigates the college students' choice <strong>of</strong> leaving their campus or staying when<br />

SARS broke out in Beijing in 2003. We used a questionnaire to get the general information. The<br />

results show that the fear <strong>of</strong> the disease is the most crucial factor <strong>of</strong> leaving. We find differences<br />

on temporal feelings, decision-making style, the influences <strong>of</strong> SARS on life and study, attitudes<br />

towards colleges, and effects <strong>of</strong> social support between the students <strong>of</strong> opposite choices. The<br />

results also show that social support plays an important part in their feelings. The causes <strong>of</strong><br />

differences are discussed in each section.<br />
