Rubel, Deborah; Atieno Okech, Jane E.
Journal for Specialists in Group Work, v34 n3 p227-250 Sep 2009
The researchers conducted a systematic exploration of the experiences of expert group work supervisors during the supervision process. This article's purpose is to report results that inform intentional practice and illustrate supervision interventions for group work supervisors. Results indicated that participants experienced an interactive process of apperception and actions situated within the context of their beliefs about group work and supervision and knowledge about multiple levels of the system. This article provides a detailed account of the interrelationship of supervisor understanding and actions, examples of group work supervision interventions, and implications for group work supervision, training, and further research.
