From OQ® to GQ®: Measuring Group Member Experience Jennie Bingham, Ph.D.Mark Beecher, Ph.D.Brigham Young University
ACPA Annual Convention Indianapolis, Indiana
Measurement – does it mean what we think it means?
•Qualitative study of using the OQ® before every session (Jensen, Golightly, & Beecher, unpublished data)▫Measures are more successful when the purpose is clear ▫Measurement is unpleasant but helpful (at least for some)▫Measures can be used as primer/organizer for sessions▫Clients’ feel measures don’t fully capture their experience
•It’s a piece of the puzzle – but an important one!▫Find out what it means to the client
The Group Questionnaire
•Measures positive bond, positive work, and negative relationship
•Does so across three parts of the therapeutic relationship: member-member, member-leader, and member-group
•Created by the Consortium for Group Research and Practice (C-GRP) at Brigham Young University
The “I’m good” Dropout… ▫“I don’t think I need group this semester. I am doing really well. Thanks!”
AND the OQ Survey Says…
