A Literature Review of Gender Issues in Supervision: Power Differentials and Dual Relationship.

Downs, Louis; Downs, Rita

Human Service Education: A Journal of the National Organization for Human Service Education, v18 n1 p39-48 Fall 1998

Recent literature suggests gender-based problems in the supervision of counselor trainees that may have applications for human services. Gender, relationships, sexuality, and power issues should be a part of the training of male and female supervisors. Safeguards are needed to ensure ethical supervisory relationships with students as programs develop. (Author/EMK)
