Description
Summary:Clinical supervision training is now considered essential, but has not been given serious attention. Therefore, in this study a systematic review of the research literature on clinical supervision training is undertaken. Eleven controlled studies were located and assessed to identify evidence-based practices in supervisor training. Addressing the two questions posed by Whitman, Ryan, and Rubinstein (2001), we found that these 11 studies provided empirical support for supervisor training (i.e., 15 specific elements of training had empirical support: primarily corrective feedback, educational role-play, and observational learning). Recommendations are outlined, based on these 11 studies, combined with narrative reviews, surveys, and expert consensus.
