Date Issued:
2015
Summary:
Through video recording, clinicians have the ability to further analyze their clients, being provided with micro and macro expressions, vocal cues and body language. The objective of the research is to test whether the size and positioning of a video camera affects the client’s levels of tension while under surveillance and simultaneously receiving therapy. By utilizing contrasting recording methods, it is predicted that the client will feel more comfortable in front of an inconspicuous, wall-mounted camera as opposed to the tripod-mounted camera. The results of this research have the potential to revolutionize the methods used by the therapy and counseling community to further analyze their clients as well as psychotherapeutic methods. Data will be collected from a total of four clients’ fourth sessions in order to rule out anxiety experienced as a result of adjusting to a new therapeutic relationship or other factors inherent to a therapeutic session.
