A Study of MSW and BSW Students' Perceptions of Their Field Instructors

Pages 399-414 | Accepted 01 Mar 1996, Published online: 10 Jan 2014
 

Abstract

In the study reported here, BSW and MSW students in field placements and a group of recent MSW graduates were surveyed to assess the impact of personal attributes, supervisory characteristics, and 11 instructional skills on their evaluation of their field instructors. Results indicated that the most influential variables were those representing task-oriented, educational aspects of field instruction. In addition, field instructors' availability, their use of process recordings, and the amount of supervision they gave students also influenced respondents' evaluations.
