There were also statistically significant differences between trainees in the training and supervision groups in the following psychological variables: Problem Solving (t=89)= -3.444*, d= -0.726 (medium effect size), Restructuring (t=89)= -3.533, d= -0.745 (medium effect size) and Self-Reflexivity (t= 89)= -4.967, d= -1.047 (strong effect size). STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT HYPOTHESES: 1. Trainees in the supervision group have a higher level of Awareness as opposed to those in training. 2. Trainees in the supervision group have a higher level of problem solving than those in training.
