Özet:

Essentially, an analogue research is an experimental research conducted under conditions that resemble natural conditions. Analogue research which has been accepted in the field and also has become very popular for a period is a kind of research that is used in quite various and creative ways since it has been used for the first time in counseling researches. Analog research has different advantages for researchers especially on experimental control and ethical issues. However many researchers denote that the most significant and important limitation of analogue methodology is external validity. Discussions related to analogue research mainly arise from dichotomizing experimental counseling research as analogue or naturalistic research often in the literature. It is assumed that analogue research may be mainly helpful for researchers about issues needed to be examined by experimental research in counseling and guidance in Turkey. Moreover, it is thought that similar methodological discussions and examinations somewhat carried out in this article should be carried out in Turkey further.
