dc.description.abstractThe literature on Indian education published in Canada between 1965 and 1970 is examined to identify attitudes which affect adversely the education of Indian children who attend schools in the Province of British Columbia, which attitudes are held by school personnel involved in Indian education. From those attitudes are deduced implications for counselling Indian children. Research in attitudes, attitude change, and perception and interpretation is reviewed, to provide a basis for denomi­nating negative attitudes. Academic and popular literature is examined for illustrations of prevailing attitudes, Ethno­centrism, misconception, and insensitivity are descriptive terms used for categorizing behaviours which reveal attitudes. Implications for counselling are delineated in the areas of education and training of school personnel, teacher attitudes and attitude change, special programmes in counsel­ling, interpersonal communication, standardized testing, and motivation.en
