  • Title: Group process research and emergence of therapeutic factors in critical incident stress debriefing.
    Author: Pender DA, Prichard KK.
    Journal: Int J Emerg Ment Health; 2008; 10(1):39-48. PubMed ID: 18546758.
    Abstract:
    Critical incident stress debriefing is a highly utilized and often debated form of post-trauma exposure intervention. This article presents exploratory group process research that utilized a mixed method approach and group process research techniques. The article's findings, the emergence of therapeutic factors, support that CISD group work does yield indicators consistent with support/ psychoeducation groups with a crisis theme. Further the events that trigger the intervention yield specific therapeutic factors. CISD group work may be better understood through established group research patterns.
