title: A "bug-in-the-eye" can be better than a "bug-in-the-ear". A teleprompter technique for on-line therapy skills training.
abstract: The only existing method of therapy supervision that provides on-line feedback to trainees is the "bug-in-the-ear," an auditory communication system. Although this system has several advantages over supervision strategies that use retrospective accounts, audio- and videotapes, and direct observation on sessions, it is disruptive to the trainee and must be limited to strategically timed three- or four-word communications. We describe and discuss advantages of the "bug-in-the-eye," an alternative to the bug-in-the-ear, which provides visual on-line feedback for therapist skill training.
