Conducted a study of client expectations of psychological services in Yucatan, Mexico, under the sponsorship of a grant from the Organization of American States. The Expectations About Counseling-Brief Form (EAC-B) questionnaire was translated and administered to 488 subjects across age, sex, and experience with psychological services. Subsequent analyses supported the reliability and robustness of the Spanish EAC-B, with factor structure similar to the EAC-B in English. Some relation was found among age, sex, prior counseling experience, and expectations about counseling. Implications of these data for future research and comparison with U. S. subjects are discussed.
