Abstract

This study compared the outcome of patients treated with behavioural psychotherapy by a nurse behavioural psychotherapist against the outcome of those treated by trainee psychiatrists under his supervision. The trainees were shown to produce improvement, but significantly less than the supervisor. It was shown that supervision of trainees was a cost effective use of the supervisor's time.
