Two groups of 12 trainees were exposed to either monitor‐modeling or immediate‐feedback supervision in their practicum. Ten‐minute individual counseling sessions with coached clients were taped before and after the practicum. Three independent judges rated the tapes, using Carkhuff's scales for gross ratings of facultative interpersonal functioning (Carkhuff 1969). Results indicated that (a) the judges' mean ratings from pretest to posttest increased significantly for the monitor‐modeling group but not for the immediate‐feedback group; (b) although the results approached significance (p < .09), there were no significant differences on the posttest; and (c) the amount of growth from pretest to posttest was significantly greater for the monitor‐modeling group. The data supports the relative effectiveness of monitor‐modeling supervision. Additional, more extensive evaluations are suggested to more fully assess the relative value of such team approaches to supervision.
