One study of burn victims, for example, found that patients who received debriefing were much more likely to report P.T.S.D. symptoms than patients in a control group.
Young participants received cognitive debriefing to ascertain they understood the questions.
However, young participants received cognitive debriefing to ascertain reliable self-report, and this issue was taken into account in statistical analyses.
At the end of the study, providers received a debriefing form that explained that the study sought to characterize communication about pain and pain medications in the ED.
They stated that counsellors were neglected in their role and received no debriefing, minimal supervision, and once-off training sessions that were in some instances poorly conducted.
All participants received written debrief information at the end of the study.
Participants then completed a questionnaire to provide demographic details, and each participant received a debrief form with contact details of the research team.
Finally, participants provided demographic information and received a debrief card containing a unique identification number and the address of a website containing a full description of the aims of the study and research assistant contact details.
Thereafter, participants will receive a full debrief and provided with an opportunity to receive the final group-level results of the intervention.
Researchers will receive regular supervision and debrief sessions.
For experimental group, they received audiovisual assisted debriefing about communication skills for end-of-life care.
