      ab: Undergraduate students (n = 429) were surveyed to determine the style of advising used by their current advisor, the students' preferred advising style, and their satisfaction with advising. A majority of students (79.8%) identified their current advisor as using a developmental advising style. Nearly all (95.5%) respondents preferred developmental advising. Students with developmental advisors and a preference for developmental advising (77.9%) had significantly (p < .05) higher satisfaction than students with prescriptive advisors and a preference for developmental advising. Students experiencing congruence between their advisor's style and their preferred advising style had significantly (p < .0001) higher satisfaction with advising than students experiencing incongruence. The effect size for congruence (or incongruence) on satisfaction was large (Cohen's d= 1.05).
