This article describes the ways in which students move from being almost fearful of research to becoming practitioners who undertake research with confidence. The students are part of a top up BSc (Hons) Humanistic Integrative Psychotherapy programme; they are skilled, experienced and accredited practitioners who have to undertake a psychotherapy degree due to changes in Irish law. This article focuses on the ways in which action methods are used to guide the students through the research process from question-finding through to writing their proposals and onwards to completing their research projects. Psychodrama principles of warm up, action and sharing are integral to the process. Sharing is an expected and fundamental part of the process and takes the form of disseminating key results to their psychotherapy colleagues locally, nationally and internationally in print and at conference presentations [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
