Abstract

Abstract This article reports on the results of a national survey of AAMFT Approved Supervisors. The respondents (N=550) answered questions regarding areas of concentration during supervision, specific techniques employed, professional goals and priorities, and theoretical models used in supervision. Results are compared with a previous survey conducted in 1976 (Everett, 1980). Although audiotapes of trainees' sessions were the most frequently utilized method of supervision, the most effective method was thought to be live supervision with immediate feedback. The most frequently used theoretical models were structural, strategic, and communications/humanistic; and the most frequent concentrations of supervision were focused on identifying family structures, interrupting attempted solutions, and alleviating the presenting problem.
