Researcher development of pretenured faculty of colour in counselling programmes in the U.S.
Abstract
This study explored the perceptions of researcher development among nine pretenured faculty of colour in counselling in the U.S. using a phenomenological approach as a methodological framework. Five themes emerged from the data: (a) research topics emerging from minority identity and experiences, (b) disrespected research topics and ability, (c) limited and delayed opportunities, (d) duality: pressured to exceed and (e) tokenisation. Implications for counselling faculty and higher education institutions are discussed.
