The Effects of Videotape Self-Image Confrontation on Helping Perceptions

Abstract

Using videotape recordings to provide a self-encounter may yield valuable self-knowledge, difficult to obtain during ordinary student training, but important to professional development This article describes a study that examined the effectiveness of videotape self-image confrontation as a procedure to create changes in self-perceptions related to the helping process. Results indicated that a self-image confrontation produced significant amounts of perceptual change. While the initial impact was powerful, the effects of a single self-image aonfrontation tended to decrease over time. The findings suggest that effective use requires periodic and varied self-encounters throughout professional education.
