TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the literature that identifies the salient ethical guidelines related to the practice of supervision and discuss the results of a study that examined supervisor ethical practices.
Abstract: The overall purpose of this article is to present a review of the literature that identifies the salient ethical guidelines related to the practice of supervision and to discuss the results of a study that examined supervisor ethical practices. In terms of our investigation, we examined supervisee perceptions of their supervisors’ adherence to ethical guidelines, supervisee reactions to ethical violations, and the relationships among supervisor ethical behaviors, the supervisory working alliance, and supervisee satisfaction. The results indicated that 51% of the 151 beginning to intern-level supervisees sampled reported at least one ethical violation by their supervisors. The most frequently violated guidelines involved adequate performance evaluation, confidentiality issues relevant to supervision, and ability to work with alternative perspectives. Greater nonadherence to ethical guidelines was significantly related to a weaker supervisory alliance and lower supervisee satisfaction. Limitations and impli...

  • ...Unfortunately, traditional efforts to demonstrate superiority of one treatment over another or psychotherapy over a placebo condition have yielded an increasingly familiar pattern of nonsignificant results (eg, Bergin & Lambert, 1978; DiLoreto, 1971; Kernberg et al,, 1972; Klein et al,, 1983; Miller & Berman, 1983; Pilkonis et al,, 1984; Prioleau et al,, 1983; Sloane et al, 1975; Smith & Glass, 1977; Strupp & Hadley, 1979)....

TL;DR: Formulas were derived and a Monte Carlo study was conducted to estimate the degree to which the F statistic and treatment effect size measures are inflated by ignoring the effects due to providers of treatments.
Abstract: Although the consequences of ignoring a nested factor on decisions to reject the null hypothesis of no treatment effects have been discussed in the literature, typically researchers in applied psychology and education ignore treatment providers (often a nested factor) when comparing the efficacy of treatments. The incorrect analysis, however, not only invalidates tests of hypotheses, but it also overestimates the treatment effect. Formulas were derived and a Monte Carlo study was conducted to estimate the degree to which the F statistic and treatment effect size measures are inflated by ignoring the effects due to providers of treatments. These untoward effects are illustrated with examples from psychotherapeutic treatments.

TL;DR: Children in the PMT-PSST condition showed significantly less aggression and externalizing behavior at home and at school and greater prosocial behavior and overall adjustment than contact-control children.
Abstract: This investigation evaluated the combined effects of parent management training (PMT) and cognitive-behavioral problem-solving skills training (PSST) for the treatment of antisocial behavior. Psychiatric inpatient children (N = 40, ages 7 to 12) and their parents were assigned randomly to either PMT-PSST combined or to a contact-control condition. In the combined treatment, parents received PMT and the children received PSST. In the control condition, parents received contact meetings in which the child's treatment was discussed; children met with a therapist in individual sessions where they discussed activities on the ward. All children participated in a short-term hospital program before their return to the community. Children in the PMT-PSST condition showed significantly less aggression and externalizing behavior at home and at school and greater prosocial behavior and overall adjustment than contact-control children. These results were evident immediately after treatment and at a 1-year follow-up assessment.
