As a result, he had quit his part-time job. Also, the client had difficulties in deciding whether he should become a novel and illustration writer. The five-stage interview based on Ivey's microcounseling method was used as an intervention. This interview consists of five parts: (1) relationship, (2) story and strengths, (3) goals, (4) restory, and (5) action. To assess the efficacy of the intervention, the Hildreth Feeling and Attitude Scale (F-A Scale), the Time Perspective Scale (TP Scale), and the Kumamoto University Competence Scale (KUCS) were used at the beginning, the mid-stage, and the end-stage of interviews. RESULTS: At the end-stage of the interview, he had decided to become a novelist. His general self-esteem as measured by the KUCS, which assesses emotional stability and self-confidence, was improved. More positive scores were indicated in the F-A Scale during the later stages of the interview, in comparison to the beginning. The TP Scale at the end-stage showed that the client's thinking was predominantly focused on the present and the future, and the score for the past also changed to positive. CONCLUSION: The client developed enough confidence to work, and his social anxieties became a small concern for him. The five-stage interview was very useful in clarifying his goals and to increase his competence.}, pages = {38--44}, title = {Five-stage interview for a jobless client with social anxiety}, volume = {17}, year = {2012}, yomi = {サクマ, シンイチ} }
