Supervisor communication competence was used to predict both beneficial (Study 1) and detrimental (Study 2) employee outcomes across remote, hybrid, and in-person work experiences. In both studies, there were no differences in perceived supervisor communication competence based on remote, hybrid, and in-person work experiences. As predicted,…

To meet accreditation expectations, teacher preparation programs must demonstrate their candidates are evaluated using summative assessment tools that yield sound, reliable, and valid data.

Although a large percentage of counselors who are wounded healers eventually become clinical counseling supervisors, little is known about the effects on clinical supervision. Counseling supervisors have the responsibility of gatekeeping, managing client care, and modeling counseling for counselors-in-training; the process is likely affected by…

Much of the supervision literature revolves around the delicate balance between directive supervision and student independence. Yet there remains a paucity of empirical research about the balancing act. This is the first study based on survey data to undertake a large-scale empirical analysis of the assumed relation between doctoral supervisor…

We study the returns to experience in teaching, estimated using supervisor ratings from classroom observations. We describe the assumptions required to interpret changes in observation ratings over time as the causal effect of experience on performance. We compare two difference-in-differences strategies: the two-way fixed effects estimator common…

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…

Effective leadership is deemed important because of the impact leaders have on employees, which affects organizational outcomes. How leaders are deemed effective is connected to the implicit leadership theories held by employees, which informs the expectations employees have of their leaders.

The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) suggests that a minimum of 80% of the PSC's time be spent providing direct and indirect student services (ASCA, 2019a). These services include, but are not…

The provision of support has always been central to the role of the undergraduate dissertation (UD) supervisor, but little research has been done on its contextual determinants in web-facilitated contexts. Beyond the general recognition of the importance of institutional support for the development of supervisors' technological and pedagogical…

Clinical supervision of trainees in the field of psychology is a crucial and required component of the training process. Yet, despite its ubiquity within the field, research on the factors that contribute to positive and negative supervisory experiences from the perspective of the trainee is relatively sparse. This is particularly true in terms of…

This multiple site case study explored staffing in student affairs divisions and the experiences of practitioners. This research study used Creamer and Winston's (2002) Integrated Model of Staffing Practices to structure the case study and analyze the data. A systematic approach to staffing is necessary to provide student affairs staff the…

Supervisory relationship is a highly significant driver of doctoral experience. However, empirical studies exploring the alignment between supervisors' and supervisees' perceptions of good doctoral supervision is lacking. A total of 768 doctoral candidates and 561 doctoral supervisors from a multi-field research-intensive university participated…
