Predictors of Satisfaction with Field Practicum Among Social Work Students
Abstract
Practicum is essential to professional social work education. What makes this intense learning experience satisfactory to students? One hundred forty-two graduate social work students specializing in direct practice were studied to determine factors associated with satisfaction. Contributing most to satisfaction were students' perceptions of the quality of field instruction, the desirability of and involvement in the agency, and didactic explanations for the field instructor. The findings highlight the importance of accessible supportive supervision, active learning, and feedback and conceptual input into student learning.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
