- W64092077 abstract "Given that faculty advising plays an important role ia college level retention, this paper examines three possible forms of faculty advisor-student relationships--paternalism, agency, and contract--and found the contract form to be superior. The paternalistic model in which the advisor assumes responsibility and authority for decision making was found to be inappropriate because generally college level students are capable of participating in decisions. The agency model which gives most of the responsibility and authority for decision-making to the student with the advisor acting on the student's behalf, was inadequate because it fails to recognize the ethical freedom and responsibility of the advisor and his responsibility to third parties. The contract model was found to be superior because it puts the advisor and advisee on an equal footing allowing for them to mutually agree on decisions after discussion together trereby encouraging and recognizing the status of the student. Limitations involve the degree to which the pair are not in fact equal. Survey results of 495 students from Villa Julie College (Maryland) found that for 133 students, advisor availability was a significant factor in their decision to stay. Of students surveyed, 7 preferred the paternal advising model, 128 the agency model, and 352 the contract model. Included are 18 references, and a copy of the student survey.

This lack of agreement may derive from the variety of institutions, each with its own mission, goals, and clientele (Daigle 40; Brophy 42; Lenning, et al. 5); and the variety of characteristics and what is expected of advisors and advisees (Bean 710; Brophy 9,10; Crockett 247; Heard 12). But we can allow for such variety and still make some general and useful observations concerning possible types of advisor-advisee relationships and the value of each type vis-a-vis retention efforts. This paper borrows the basic models of the professional-client relationship from professional ethics: paternalism, agency, and 1This is a revised version of a paper presented at the Noel/Levitz 1990 National Conference on Student Retention, July 9, 1990. 2For perceptions see Beal and Noel (4)), Finney (2,7), and Heard (15). Cf. Holm (90) who found the aevisor had little perceived effect on retention of adult students in a personalized learning program. For demonstrations see Atkins (8,22) and Brophy (38,41,43) who cite several works, Crockett (244-46), Gordon (127), and Tinto (152). Forrest (71) argues that the significance is probable but not certain." @default.
