Abstract
This study of 65 supervisees and 64 supervisors addresses current issues in social work supervision through exploring various models of structure, authority, and teaching that were perceived to be in use. Significant differences in level of interaction, supervision and job satisfaction, and sense of accomplishment were found as the source of the supervisors' authority varied, but no differences occurred in variations of structure. Incongruence between supervisees' and supervisors' perceptions of actual and preferred structure, authority, conference frequency and initiation, and content in supervision demonstrates the need for exploration of autonomy in practice and control in supervision.
