Description
Summary:In this naturalistic study, Loganbill, Hardy, and Delworth's (1982) and Sansbury's (1982) propositions regarding supervision issues were applied to the supervision of supervisors in training and to counselor supervision and then tested. The doctoral-student participants consisted of beginning counselors and their supervisor trainees. Critical incidents, which were obtained after each counselor-supervision session and each supervisor-supervision session, were rated on 10 supervisory issues. Results offered limited support for Sansbury's hierarchy of supervisory issues in both supervision contexts. Although significant differences were observed between counselors and supervisors and between counselor supervision and supervisor supervision, the pattern of supervisory issues was overall more similar than dissimilar.
