Abstract

ABSTRACT: Investigations of supervisee intentional nondisclosure can only occur after the incident has happened. Thus, prior studies of the phenomenon have been limited in the ability to encourage rich participant recall. In the current study, we reviewed a video-recorded supervision session with ten participants and used an Interpersonal Process Recall-informed interview procedure to understand their in-session experiences of utilizing intentional nondisclosure. Using transcendental phenomenological analysis, we identified three themes: (a) impressions of the supervisory relationship, (b) reactions to the structure or process of supervision, and (c) experiences of balancing professional and evaluative relationships. Implications for supervisors and training programs are discussed.
