Based on the emerging literature being developed in Motivational Interviewing that suggests certain group process factors and facilitator attributes predict treatment outcomes, this study sought to investigate the relationship between both client and facilitator ratings of the batterer intervention group experience. This study presents data from 16 group facilitators drawn from five agencies and 175 clients being served by these facilitators. The data gathered included both facilitator ratings of clients (i.e., Group Engagement Measure-GEM) and client ratings of facilitators and the group experience (i.e., Client Rating of Facilitator-CRF, Client Perceived Benefits of Group-CPBG). Results indicate that facilitators rated clients as being engaged in the group process across all the domains assessed by the GEM and that clients viewed the facilitators and group experiences favorably as assessed by the CRF and CPBG. There was no significant correlation between the GEM and CRF or the GEM and CPBG, but there was a strong, positive correlation between the CRF and CPBG. The results here support previous research findings suggesting a strong correlation between client engagement in the therapeutic process, based on their perception of the facilitator, and their perceived benefits of the group experience. Implications of the findings for improving empirical investigations of the batterer intervention group experience were explored and discussed.

基于动机访谈中正在发展的新兴文献表明某些团体过程因素和促进者属性预测治疗结果，本研究试图调查施虐者干预团体经历的客户和促进者评级之间的关系。本研究提供了来自 5 个机构的 16 位小组协调员的数据，以及这些协调员所服务的 175 位客户。收集的数据包括客户的促进者评级（即团体参与衡量-GEM）和促进者的客户评级和团体体验（即，促进者的客户评级-CRF，客户感知的团体-CPBG 收益）。结果表明，辅导员认为客户参与了 GEM 评估的所有领域的小组过程，并且客户对 CRF 和 CPBG 评估的辅导员和小组体验给予好评。GEM 与 CRF 或 GEM 与 CPBG 之间无显着相关性，但 CRF 与 CPBG 之间存在强正相关。这里的结果支持先前的研究结果，表明客户参与治疗过程之间存在很强的相关性，基于他们对促进者的看法，以及他们对团体体验的感知利益。探索和讨论了这些发现对改进对施虐者干预组经验的实证调查的意义。GEM 与 CRF 或 GEM 与 CPBG 之间无显着相关性，但 CRF 与 CPBG 之间存在强正相关。这里的结果支持先前的研究结果，表明客户参与治疗过程之间存在很强的相关性，基于他们对促进者的看法，以及他们对团体体验的感知利益。探索和讨论了这些发现对改进对施虐者干预组经验的实证调查的意义。GEM 与 CRF 或 GEM 与 CPBG 之间无显着相关性，但 CRF 与 CPBG 之间存在强正相关。这里的结果支持先前的研究结果，表明客户参与治疗过程之间存在很强的相关性，基于他们对促进者的看法，以及他们对团体体验的感知利益。探索和讨论了这些发现对改进对施虐者干预组经验的实证调查的意义。以及他们对团体体验的感知益处。探索和讨论了这些发现对改进对施虐者干预组经验的实证调查的意义。以及他们对团体体验的感知益处。探索和讨论了这些发现对改进对施虐者干预组经验的实证调查的意义。
