In this meta-analysis, we examined the effect of distance clinical supervision in comparison with traditional face-to-face supervision in conformity with the guidelines offered by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We analyzed empirical studies (i.e., three journal articles and one dissertation) on clinical supervision published between 2000 and 2018. Analyses determined the overall effect sizes of supervision by format (i.e., distance vs. face-to-face) and compared the effect sizes of distance vs. face-to-face supervision, specifically, by supervisee satisfaction, supervisory alliance, and supervisee competency. Results indicated that the overall effect sizes of supervision, as well as the effect sizes for the three variables, did not significantly differ by format. Implications of non-significant difference in the effect sizes by different formats of clinical supervision (distance vs. face-to-face) are discussed.

在本荟萃分析中，我们按照“系统评价和荟萃分析首选报告项目”（PRISMA）提供的指南，对与传统的面对面监管进行了比较，考察了远程临床监管的效果。我们分析了2000年至2018年间发表的有关临床监督的实证研究（即三篇期刊论文和一篇论文）。分析确定了监督的总体效果大小（即距离与面对面），并比较了效果大小距离与面对面监督的关系，具体来说，是由监督满意度，监督联盟和监督能力决定的。结果表明，监督的总体效果大小以及三个变量的效果大小在格式上没有显着差异。
