Ethical decision-making is minimally addressed in counseling supervision literature. Supervisors or color may find challenges given the cultural context of both supervision and ethical decision-making. The authors interviewed six supervisors of color about ethical decision-making in supervision. The authors noted four themes: difficulty navigating…

Surveys of trainers in school psychology have been administered to examine training competencies and content delivered to school psychology trainees. Surveys of practitioners working with school psychology trainees are limited as discussed by Lewis et al. (2005). The purpose of this exploratory study is to seek to understand the perceptions of…

Postgraduate education has grown enormously worldwide, which has led to supervisors being expected to take on a supervisor's role immediately upon graduation. But crossing the border from being a doctoral candidate to becoming a doctoral supervisor entails significant shifts in identity and an understanding of postgraduate pedagogy and…

The purpose of this study is to understand how field-based supervisory practices support preservice teachers' conceptualizations of reflective practice, curriculum inquiry, and social justice-oriented pedagogies. Moving away from the more traditional supervisory triad model (e.g., preservice student--cooperating teacher--university supervisor),…

Background: Postdoctoral training holds an increasingly important place in preparation for leading academic and research positions. While little empirical research has described postdoctoral training beyond the sciences, across all fields, "misaligned expectations" are often touted as a key source of postdoctoral strife.…

This article reports on a University of the South Pacific (USP) study of supervising lecturers (SLs) and pre-service teacher education students' (PSTs) experiences and reflections on their involvement in the practice teaching component in the degree program for secondary school teachers. Two sets of rich data have emerged from this study. Firstly,…

Social support is a crucial factor in the academic engagement of doctoral students, which is vital to their overall success. While past studies have mostly focused on the support from doctoral supervisors, support from other significant groups, including institutions, peers and families, has been largely neglected, and even no study has…

The study establishes a relationship between organisational justice, work engagement, job performance, perceived supervisory support and their sub-dimensions. The major research objectives of the study were to check if perceived supervisory support does mediate between organisational justice, work engagement and job performance of faculty in…

Background: The System of Observing Play and Leisure Activity in Youth (SOPLAY) has assisted in providing valid and reliable data of youth physical activity and characteristics specific to environmental contexts. The review aimed to examine empirical research that employed the SOPLAY instrument to measure physical activity in leisure-based…

Academic institutions are characterized by specific dynamics between leaders and followers. Academics prefer work autonomy but expect quality leadership. In this article, we explore how early career researchers (ECRs) constructed followership identities through their expectations of supervisory interventions. We used thematic analysis to analyze…

Research supervision can utilise teaching and supervision practices to structure the research journey for master's students and achieve higher order learning. This study applied known practice to conceptualise a supervision approach to support the learning process of master's students during research supervision. The approach focused on improving…

Co-supervision of doctoral theses is on the rise worldwide, but we know little of the relational dynamics of the co-supervisory team and doctoral student. These teams often must work together for several years, during which supervisors may come and go. We interviewed 19 doctoral students about their experiences of co-supervision and found a…

We investigated the experiences of clinical supervisors working with therapists who presented issues related to their use-of-self in psychotherapy. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with twelve experienced clinical supervisors. Thematic analysis of these interviews revealed five main themes: (a) supervisee use-of-self issues encountered in…

Purpose: Clinical supervision is a crucial workplace practice for professional learning and development. Research is needed to investigate in detail what happens in supervision to understand how this practice contributes to learning. This paper aims to examine how professionals work with knowledge and navigate epistemic challenges in working with…

Interactions between a graduate student and their supervisor are the backbone of a successful doctoral experience. Although the number of doctoral students is increasing, there are fewer full-time doctoral students. The emerging part-time student segment represents a unique trend in higher education, creating greater diversity than traditional…
