Significant Predictors Of Satisfaction Research Articles

Mind the Gap: Understanding Palliative Care Clinician Attitudes Toward Mental Health Training.

Background: Palliative care (PC) clinicians provide mental healthcare to individuals with serious illnesses. Despite this, there is limited knowledge regarding their mental health training opportunities. Methods: To identify predictors of satisfaction with mental health training opportunities and assess the relationship between training opportunities and clinician comfort in managing mental health comorbidities, we conducted a secondary analysis of a nationwide survey involving 708 PC clinicians. Results: Satisfaction with mental health training was moderate (M = 2.75/5, SD = .915). Access to lectures/webinars was the most common training opportunity (54%). Significant predictors of satisfaction with training included access to lectures/webinars (β = .328, P <.001) and case discussions (β = .231, P = .007). Academic practice settings and satisfactory mental health referrals were associated with a greater number of different training opportunities. Clinicians in academic settings had higher odds of accessing various training opportunities, such as lectures/webinars (OR = 2.58, P <.001) and longitudinal training pathways (OR = 4.51, P <.001). A moderate, positive correlation was found between training satisfaction and comfort in managing mental health comorbidities (r = .30, P <.001). Discussion: This study is among the first to elucidate factors influencing PC clinicians' satisfaction with mental health training. Low-resource training opportunities, such as webinars and lectures, significantly predict satisfaction, suggesting the potential of these scalable solutions to enhance training. The findings underscore the importance of expanding evidence-based mental health training for PC clinicians to improve patient care.

Assessment of Service Quality Perception Gap between Service Seekers and Service Providers of Land Services in Rwanda

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the determinants of customer satisfaction from the perspective of service seekers and service providers using SERVQUAL. Methodology: the study employed both quantitative and qualitative research approaches. The survey method was used to collect primary quantitative data. Probability sampling was employed to select both service seekers and service providers. 422 service seekers were randomly selected from a list of 53,158 people. 45 service providers were also randomly selected from 416 land officers. A data collection tool was developed for service seekers and customized for service providers. The validity of the research tool was tested and the results showed a P-value of 0.00. Cronbach’s Alpha calculation was employed to test reliability and resulted in an output of 0.932 &gt; 0.7 which shows excellent reliability. Key informant interviews were also conducted with purposively selected respondents to collect their opinions on service quality to complement the quantitative data. Findings: From the perspective of service seekers, the findings showed that the five service quality dimensions are positive and significant predictors of satisfaction. The data from the service providers show that only empathy is a positive and significant predictor of satisfaction whereas, the other four dimensions are positive but less significant predictors of satisfaction. The study results revealed a discrepancy between service seekers and service providers in the dimensions that predict the satisfaction of customers with land services more than others. Contribution to Theory, Policy, and Practice: Understanding the perception gap allows service providers to adjust their approaches to service delivery design to be more customer-focused. The study also informs policymakers where to focus efforts to enhance the quality of services. The unique aspect that this research puts forward is the comparison of the data from both service seekers and service providers to show similarities or differences in their understanding of which dimensions predict the satisfaction of customers more than others. The study recommends continuous collection of feedback from service seekers to help bridge the perception gap in what predicts satisfaction of service seekers.

TOURIST SATISFACTION AND REVISIT INTENTION: THE ROLE OF ATTRACTION, ACCESSIBILITY, AND FACILITIES OF WATER PARK TOURISM

Although it is crucial to investigate the effect of tourism components on satisfaction and revisit intention, there has not been any similar study that specifically explores the perception of young tourists visiting water parks. This study aims to investigate the effect of attraction, accessibility, and facilities on satisfaction and revisit intention. Using quantitative research methods with 269 young water park tourists, the data were analyzed by using SEM-PLS modeling. The results reveal that attraction, accessibility, and main facilities are significant predictors of satisfaction and revisit intention of young wate r park tourists. Meanwhile, the role of supporting facilities is not as important as the main ones. Support facilities do not impact revisit intention through young tourist satisfaction, even though tourists are satisfied with the support facilities, these supporting facilities do not make them intend to revisit. This study also discovers an interesting finding, that support facilities, both directly and indirectly, had no effect on revisit intention, and satisfaction does not mediate the effect of support facilities on revisit intention. These findings provide a meaningful insight for water park managers to provide tourism components that satisfy visitors so they have a strong intention to revisit.

Not Just One Long Vacation: Revisiting the Importance of Lifestyle Planning in the Transition to Retirement.

There is a need to further understand the nature and role of planning for one's lifestyle in retirement. The purpose of this study was to examine retirement planning and how it impacts perceived preparedness and satisfaction with the retirement transition, as well as to explore personal experiences of retirement. Canadians (n=748) fully or partly retired participated in an online survey that included quantitative questions about perceived retirement preparedness and satisfaction and open-ended questions about retirement goals, fears, challenges, and advice. Results determined that while both financial and lifestyle planning were significant predictors of higher perceived preparedness, only lifestyle planning was a significant predictor for satisfaction. Overall, no gender differences were detected. Open-ended comments highlighted the importance of planning for one's lifestyle in retirement, including meaningful activities and social connections. Individualized career advising as well as group-based educational programs or peer-assisted learning initiatives appear warranted to support people in planning for their lifestyle in retirement.

Sociodemographic Association of Caregivers Burden with Schizophrenia Disorder

Objective: The aim of this study is to find out a relationship between life satisfaction and caregiver burden among patients who are suffering from psychiatric illness.&#x0D; Materials and methods: The sample size of this study was 170 psychiatric patients. Primarily consent was received from the higher authorities of the psychiatric hospitals and rehabilitation centers in Karachi. Zarit Burden Interview Scale (ZBIS) and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) were used. Psychiatric patients were divided into schizophrenia disorder (n = 85) and bipolar disorder (n = 85). Data were analyzed by statistics software (SPSS, version, 20.0). The sample was constituted with male 75 (44.1%) and females were 95 (55.9%). The average age range of caregivers was between 19 and 60 years with M = 44.74 and SD = 12.05 years.&#x0D; Results : The results indicated that caregiver burden was a significant predictor of satisfaction with life in patients with schizophrenia disorder [R2, .554; F (1.84) = 36.711, p&lt;.000]. A significant difference was also observed between male and females caregivers of psychiatric patients on the variable of caregiver burden and satisfaction with life scale (i.e. t=-3.129; p=.&lt;002; t=3.528; p=.&lt;.001).&#x0D; Conclusion: It is concluded that caregiver burden significantly affects the level of mental health of the caregivers of patients with psychiatric disorders.&#x0D; Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol. 23 No. 01 January’24 Page : 89-94

Reach and predictors of effects during nation-wide dissemination of the universal parenting program All Children in Focus

BackgroundParenting programs have the potential to improve population health, if widely disseminated. However, wide-scale dissemination is challenging. Also, more knowledge is needed of whether parenting programs are effective for the variability of families in the general population.MethodsThis study aimed to investigate who the universal parenting program All Children in Focus (ABC) reaches when offered in routine care in Sweden. A second aim was to investigate if the outcomes were predicted by factors related to family background, group leader experience, and homework completion. Questionnaires were collected before and after ABC from 1420 parents. Hierarchical regression analyses were performed to examine predictors of disruptive child behavior, parenting practices, and satisfaction.ResultsABC was available in about 40% of Swedish municipalities and reached a fairly representative population sample, with the exception that fewer fathers than mothers participated. The examined predictors explained a small proportion of the variance in the outcomes (2.5, 3.5 and 14.7%, respectively). Still, the effect on disruptive child behavior was statistically significantly larger for parents born in Sweden, with higher education, and older children. The effect on parenting practices was also larger for parents born in Sweden, for mothers, and for those practicing homework more frequently. Most examined predictors showed no statistically significant association with child and parenting outcomes. Parents were generally satisfied with ABC and the significant predictors of satisfaction had little practical meaning.ConclusionsA fairly representative group of parents across Sweden were reached by ABC. Background variables, homework completion, and group leaders’ experience explained a small proportion of variance in the outcomes. Meanwhile, the slightly lower intervention effects found for preschool children and parents born abroad calls for further investigation, since even small differences in effects can have an impact at a population level. The study also points to the importance of stressing homework completion and to increase the reach of universal parenting interventions to some underrepresented groups.

Adult Patient Satisfaction with Nursing Care Services and Associated Factors Among Admitted Patients at Saint Paul's Hospital, Millennium Medical College, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2022: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Providing comprehensive nursing care and ensuring patient satisfaction are essential health performance indicators worldwide. Despite some efforts to improve patient satisfaction with nursing care, the approach in developing countries, including Ethiopia, remains insufficient. This study aimed to assess the level of adult patient satisfaction and identify the factors affecting satisfaction. This cross-sectional study included 407 participants selected using a simple randomization technique. The samples were distributed using proportional allocation to each selected adult inpatient department. The participants were interviewed using a modified structured Amharic version of the Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Scale. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were also performed. The overall level of patient satisfaction with nursing care services was 54.3%. Respondents without formal education (P=0.010), male sex (P=0.041), free service consumers (P0.001), and health insurance users (P0.001) were significantly associated with satisfaction with nursing care. In addition, previously hospitalized patients (P=0.001), governmental workers (P0.001), and patients admitted to the medical ward (P=0.010) were associated with patient dissatisfaction with nursing care services. This study revealed that adult patient satisfaction with nursing care services is low. A previous admission history, higher education level, paying cash for services, and private and governmental workers were significant predisposing factors for dissatisfaction with nursing care. On the other hand, patients without formal education, free-service consumers, and male sex were significant predictors of satisfaction with nursing care services. Therefore, hospital administrators are encouraged to focus on patients' needs and expectations.

Hope, proactive personality, coping styles, and satisfaction with life among veterans during COVID-19

ABSTRACT Veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces are an at-risk population given their increased mental health concerns resulting from their military service. However, there has been limited research conducted with this population during the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine aspects of positive psychological functioning with 132 U.S. veterans during COVID-19 using Lazarus and Folkman’s (1984) transactional model of stress and coping. Specifically, we examined the personal resources of hope and proactive personality, two coping styles, and satisfaction with life. We performed correlation analyses to determine how these constructs related to each other. We also conducted a regression analysis to examine if the two dimensions of hope, proactive personality, adaptive coping, and maladaptive coping predicted veterans’ satisfaction with life. Lastly, we utilized a mediation analysis to investigate whether two coping styles mediated the relationships among personal resources and satisfaction with life. Findings from the regression analysis suggested hope pathways and proactive personality were significant predictors of satisfaction with life. Results from the mediation analysis suggested that adaptive and maladaptive coping did not mediate the relationships among personal resources and satisfaction with life.

A Study on Users Perception towards Buying of English Newspaper in Coimbatore District

Users satisfaction towards reading English newspapers has been a topic of interest in the literature. Studies have examined various factors that impact Users satisfaction, such as perceived usefulness, ease of use, content quality, trust, perceived value, brand equity, and demographics. For example, research has shown that factors like age, gender, and education level can influence satisfaction with English newspapers in India, while perceived value and satisfaction are significant predictors of loyalty in Korea. In Pakistan, trust and perceived value were found to impact Users satisfaction with English newspapers. Additionally, studies have explored Users satisfaction with online English newspaper services, finding that perceived usefulness, ease of use, and content quality are significant predictors of satisfaction. Overall, the literature suggests that multiple factors can impact Users satisfaction towards reading English newspapers, and understanding these factors can provide insights for improving newspaper services and increasing reader loyalty.

Although some education around implicit bias has been developed, formal programming and scholarly reports are limited, particularly at the trainee level. Our objective was to identify (a) what implicit bias programming medical trainees have received to date, (2) what type and how much more training is needed to succeed in a healthcare career. METHODS: A survey-based needs assessment was sent via REDCap to pre-medical undergraduate students (n=75), medical students (n=75), and resident/fellows (n=55) at our institution. Participants reported demographics, plus current skill level, attitude, previous experience, satisfaction, and training needs as related to implicit bias training and ability to deliver cross-cultural patient care. RESULTS: Trainees felt it was important to be aware of biases and to communicate competently but felt much more training and education on how to do so was needed, considering their lack of cross-cultural skills/confidence as related to delivering medical care (p>0.1). Modeling indicated that older participants (p=0.023), non-English (as a first language) speakers (p=0.001), and those who felt less imposter syndrome (p=0.021) had greater perceived skills in cross-cultural competence and communication. Previous training was a significant predictor of satisfaction with current level of training (p<0.001). Learners indicated their preference for implicit bias mitigation training as a single 2-3 hour session (31%) or a 1-hour weekly session (30%). CONCLUSIONS: Medical trainees’ need for implicit bias training should not be overlooked, particularly given the call for this training in faculty and staff at many medical centers and institutions. Healthcare workers interact with diverse patient populations at an increasing rate and results from this needs assessment suggest much more work is done to expose and train early learners in this domain.

Household heads satisfaction and associated factors on community-based health insurance scheme in Gudeya Bila District, Oromia, Ethiopia.

Community-Based Health Insurance (CBHI) scheme refers to a non-profit type of health insurance for the informal sector. There is a paucity of information on this topic in Gudeya Bila, Ethiopia. This study aimed to assess the level of household (HH) satisfaction with the CBHI scheme and its associated factors. A community-based cross-sectional study design was employed from November 1-30, 2020, and a sample of 630 HHs who enrolled in the CBHI scheme were included. A multi-stage sampling and systematic random sampling were employed. Data was entered into Epidata version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS for windows program version 25. A 95% CI was calculated and variables having p-value < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Descriptive statistics, bivariate, and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed. All HHs heads (630) with a response rate of 100% were involved in the study. The overall HH satisfaction on CBHI was 56.2%. Attending CBHI scheme-related meetings (AOR = 1.948, 95% CI = 1.16-3.27), healthcare provider respectfulness (AOR = 9.209, 95% CI = 2.73-31.06), able to get the ordered laboratory test service (AOR = 2.143, 95% CI = 1.127-4.072) and having paid extra money for drug supply at private health facilities (AOR = 0.492, 95% CI = 0.285-0.847) were independent predictors. HH satisfaction level on CBHI scheme was moderate. Attending CBHI scheme-related meetings, health-care provider respectfulness, being able to get the ordered laboratory test services and extra payments for drug supply were significant predictors of satisfaction with CBHI. Therefore, attention should be given to increasing the satisfaction of HHs with CBHI through improving the quality of health services.

Modeling users’ and practitioners’ intention for continued usage of the Internet of Medical Devices (IoMD): an empirical investigation

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to identify the antecedents of continued usage intentions in the connected devices ecosystem in health care by analyzing the users' and physicians' expectations in a new ecosystem where one prefers to connect digitally rather than physically.Design/methodology/approachThis is a unique study in which data was collected from 242 doctors and 215 end-users to gauge the expectations from the connected devices in health care. Further, these responses were hypothesised using UTAUT-2 and ECT theories to analyze general users’ and professional users’ or doctors’ expectations for continued usage in connected devices ecosystem in the health-care ecosystem.FindingsPerformance expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions and price value emerged as significant predictors of satisfaction in both user groups. But habit and hedonic motivation reflected an insignificant impact on user satisfaction. Surprisingly, effort expectancy emerged as a significant factor for end-user satisfaction, and this became insignificant for professional user satisfaction. Satisfaction was positively related to continued usage for both user groups, and app quality has a positive impact on all the predictors.Practical implicationsTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first comparative study to understand the factors which influence consumer behavior leading to a holistic model and can be imbibed for creating a better customer experience in an era where we are more comfortable connecting digitally rather than physically.Originality/valueThis study has used the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology-2 model and expectation confirmation theory to analyze the key factors influencing the intentions for continued usage of devices in the Internet of Medical Devices setup.

Client satisfaction with antenatal care among clinic attendees in a tertiary health institution in Calabar, Cross River State, Nigeria.

Antenatal care is an important entry point to the health system and provides access to essential obstetric care. Satisfaction with different aspects of antenatal care, has the potential to improve health. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of satisfaction with Antenatal care services and identify factors influencing client satisfaction among antenatal clinic attendees in University of Calabar Teaching Hospital Calabar (UCTH), Cross River State. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 200 pregnant women attending the ANC in UCTH. Systematic random sampling technique was used to recruit participants and the Client Satisfaction questionnaire (CSQ8) measured satisfaction. Data was analysed using bivariate (Chi-square test) and multivariate (binary logistic regression) analysis. The overall level of satisfaction recorded in this study was 92%. Reasons for dissatisfaction were long waiting time 57%, cost of services 40.3%, clinic environment 31%, doctors assigned to ANC attendees 19% and attitude of doctors 13%. Being satisfied with their previous experience in the health facility was the only significant predictor of satisfaction in this study(p<0.05). Although a high level of satisfaction with ANC services was noted among pregnant women in UCTH, it is pertinent that waiting time, cost of services, toilet facilities and infrastructure be addressed.

Structural equation modelling – artificial neural network based hybrid approach for assessing quality of university cafeteria services

PurposeThis study aims to show the effectiveness and applicability of artificial intelligence applications in the measurement and evaluation of university services. Universities can gain competitive advantage through providing their students with quality services in various aspects, such as bookstores, dormitories, recreation centers as well as cafeterias. Among these facilities, university cafeterias are places where students spend a significant amount of time. Therefore, this study aims to integrate artificial intelligence application in the evaluation of university cafeteria services based on students' perceptions with two-stage structural equation modeling (SEM) and artificial neural network (ANN) approach.Design/methodology/approachAn artificial intelligence based SEM-ANN hybrid approach was used to determine the factors that have significant influence on student satisfaction, sufficiency-of-services and likelihood-of-recommendation. Data were collected from 373 students through a face-to-face questionnaire. Initially, four service quality dimensions were attained through factor analysis. Then, hypotheses, which were determined via literature review, were tested through SEM-ANN hybrid approach.FindingsIncorporating the results of SEM analysis into the ANN technique resulted in superior models with good prediction performance. Based on four ANN models created and ANN sensitivity analyses conducted, significant predictors of satisfaction, sufficiency, reliability and recommendation are determined and ranked.Originality/valuePrior studies have assessed service quality using traditional techniques, whereas, this study integrates artificial intelligence in the assessment of higher-educational institutions' services quality. Also, as a distinction from previous studies, this study ranked importance levels of predictor variables through ANN sensitivity analysis.

Exploring Interactions Between Arkansas Urban Producers: Social Networks and Modes of Information Seeking

The purpose of this study was to explore the social networks and interactions between urban producers in Arkansas through a social network analysis. Using a mixed-methods approach, the current study collected data about participants’ social network interactions and methods of seeking information for urban farming. Results indicated how and where participants preferred to obtain information, peer-to-peer interactions within the network, and key players or opinion leaders in the network. The methods used in the current study may serve as an example of social network articulation for populations without a formal network to assist with outreach to communities potentially underserved by Extension.

Evaluating the Online Learning Experience at Higher Education Institutions

In light of recent COVID-19 pandemic, universities had to cope by resorting to online learning without previous preparation. This paper tries to investigate students’ satisfaction with online learning. The literature review identified seven factors that influence satisfaction (quality, interaction, information technology, academic experience, comprehension, student support, and assessment), with four demographic factors (grade point average (GPA), gender, nationality, and major classification). All variables were significant predictors of satisfaction except assessment. Only GPA was a significant predictor among the four demographic factors. Mean comparisons on the level of satisfaction indicated that no difference between females and males, nationals possessed higher levels of satisfaction, and non-STEM students possessed higher satisfaction level. The study utilized a sample of 2,354 students from a public university in the Gulf region. The coefficient of determination for the regression model was 0.723. Conclusions and implications are reported at the end of the paper.

Abstract P3-18-06: Satisfaction and physical wellbeing after breast conserving therapy: Clinical predictors and reference values using the BREAST-Q

Abstract Background: BREAST-Q is a widely accepted patient reported outcome measure (PROM) for breast surgery patients. BREAST-Q has been challenging to implement for clinical practice, due to insufficient understanding of clinical factors influencing BREAST-Q scores and lack of reference values for score interpretation. As a result, the clinical applicability of the BREAST-Q is limited, and benefits of routine PROM implementation on care quality have not been realized for breast surgery patients. This study finds predictors impacting long-term scores for the BREAST-Q Breast Conserving Therapy (BCT) module and determines reference values to guide score interpretation in clinical practice. Methods: A retrospective review of BCT patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center was conducted. All patients completed at least one BREAST-Q in 2018-2020. Patient characteristics were collected, including age, BMI, race, smoking status, chemotherapy, radiation therapy (RT), and axillary surgery (sentinel lymph node biopsy, axillary lymph node dissection). BREAST-Q was collected routinely during clinical visits as part of standard of care. Linear regression measured the impact of patient characteristics on 1 year and 2 year BREAST-Q scores. Median scores at baseline and 2 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after surgery were determined for RT and No RT patients. Pearson’s Chi-square and Student t-tests were used for categorical and continuous variables, respectively. Based on prior literature, a minimal clinically important difference of 4 points was used (scale 0-100). Results: 1866 BCT patients were included. Average age was 58.9(11.4) with BMI of 27.9(6.4). Patients were primarily white (76.8%) and non-smokers (89.7%); 36.8% had chemotherapy, 74.7% had axillary surgery, and 73.3% had RT. Regression analysis showed age and race as significant predictors of Satisfaction with Breast and Physical Wellbeing scores (Table 1). RT was a clinically significant predictor for Physical Wellbeing, reducing scores by 4.5 points at 1 year and 4.6 points at 2 years. Reference values were then created for RT and No RT patients. (Table 2). Conclusions: This study found factors impacting satisfaction and physical wellbeing after BCT using BREAST-Q scores of a longitudinal cohort of women and presented references values for score interpretation. Separate reference values were created based on RT as it is a significant predictor of BREAST-Q scores and omission of RT is increasingly offered to older women with low-risk breast cancer, given no survival benefit. These reference values can be incorporated into a user-friendly application or integrated into electronic medical records to help patients and physicians interpret BREAST-Q scores in a clinically meaningful way. Future research should assess the impact of early interventions targeting BCT patients below the 25th percentile (e.g. referrals to plastic surgeons or physical therapy) on BREAST-Q scores.

Cloud computing assures a faster, cheaper and more efficient rendering of resources, which leads to huge popularity among businesses and specifically the health sector. The major objective of this research is to identify the benefits of cloud computing (CC) and the factors influencing users satisfaction. Utilizing a survey collected from 219 employees, the research model was tested. Results indicated that employee compliance issues, security and privacy issues, economic benefits, operational benefits, functional benefits, and trust are all significant predictors of satisfaction. Management issues and private cloud risks were not significant predictors of satisfaction. The coefficient of determination R2 = 0.81. This study conducted comparisons between different categories of the sample based on their satisfaction level and concluded that age and education were significant discriminators, while gender, experience, and department were not. Conclusions and future research are stated in the last section.

The Role of Personality in Prediction of Satisfaction With Life in Recreational Athletes During the First Wave of Pandemic Covid-19.

The aim of this research is to contribute to the understanding of the concept of satisfaction with life by determining the relationship between personality traits and the subjective experience of satisfaction with life in students—recreational athletes. This research is based on the biological theory of personality by Hans Eysenck and it attempts to offer explanations of a possible change in satisfaction with life in the period of great social deprivation caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The sample of subjects consisted of 120 undergraduate students (N = 120) of all years and both sexes, 55 (45.8%) males and 65 (54.2%) females, at the Faculty of Sport and Physical Education, the University of Nis. The average age of the subjects was 23.63 years (SD = 2.070). Eysenck's personality questionnaire (Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, EPQ: Eysenck et al., 1885, adapted and translated by Šipka, 1985) was used for the operationalization of personality structure. The SWLS scale (Satisfaction With Life Scale, Diener et al., 1985) was used for estimating satisfaction with life. A significant regression model, which explains 11% of variance in the subjective experience of satisfaction with life in recreational athletes, was obtained. In the model, extraversion stands out as a significant predictor from the group of personality traits (β = 0.279). Neuroticism (β = −0.160) and psychoticism (β = −0.122) did not prove to be significant predictors of satisfaction with life in the structural model regardless of there being a significant negative correlation between neuroticism and satisfaction with life. The more extraverted participants had a keener subjective sense of satisfaction with life.

To conceal or not to conceal: Supervisee and client identity processes in clinical supervision.

Supervision is often conceived of as the "instructional strategy that most characterizes the preparation of mental health professionals" (Bernard & Goodyear, 2019; p. 2). Engaging in this process fully and authentically inevitably involves being vulnerable in front of and with one's supervisor in an effort to learn and grow. To more fully understand the supervisory relationship, researchers have focused on what supervisees do and do not share with their supervisors. This article sought to understand the extent to which supervisees engage in a process of concealment or nondisclosure about culture while in supervision. Cultural concealment (operationalized by Drinane, et al., 2018) was measured on 2 levels: one focused on if the supervisee concealed their own culture and one focused on if the supervisee concealed aspects of their clients' cultural identities. First, we found significant negative associations between each of these levels of cultural concealment and satisfaction with supervision and the supervisory working alliance. We then computed a residual score whereby supervisee cultural concealment about clients was predicted by supervisee cultural concealment about themselves. This residual variable was a significant predictor of satisfaction with supervision with supervision and with the supervisory working alliance, indicating that the relationship between these levels of concealment is important and related to the process of supervision. Implications and future directions will be discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).
