The study sample consisted of 216 male and female students (scientific, literary) from public schools. Among the most important results shown by the study is the existence of a direct relationship between self-disclosure and self-efficacy on the total score of the student counselees from the first grade of secondary school in Madaba Governorate. The results revealed a direct relationship between self-disclosure and the ability to solve problems among student counselees from the first grade of secondary school from High School in Madaba Governorate.
