Write a critical analysis for a interview

Critically analyse:

1. How you directed and moved through each stage of the interview (Empathic relationship; Story and strengths; Goals; Restory, and Action). For example: Was each stage demonstrated? Was sufficient time spent in each stage? Were the goals of each stage achieved? Eg, was the opening spiel delivered appropriately and was trust and rapport developed in stage 1; Did you explore the client's story sufficiently in stage 2 before moving onto goals; Were relevant and appropriate goals identified in stage 3; Were appropriate strategies identified in stage 4; Was the interview concluded appropriately? Were transitions from one stage to the next smooth?
2. Your use of attending skills in the interview-eg. eye contact, non-verbals, body language, demonstration of empathy and genuineness etc.
3. Your use of listening responses in the interview-eg. paraphrases, reflections, encouragers, clarifications, summaries.
4. Your use of influencing responses in the interview-eg. questions, probes, empathetic confrontations etc. For example, were your influencing responses appropriate? Did you use too few or too many? (remember that these should be used very sparingly throughout the interview, especially in the early stages- Ustening responses should be predominantly used).
5. How you worked in partnership with the client-eg. did the client do most of the talking? Did you facilitate the client to explore their situation and identify their own goals and strategies rather than setting goals for them etc.

The word limit is 1800 words. 10 per cent variance is allowed. Your analysis must be supported by at least five academic references (more is preferred) and adhere to APA 7 referencing conventions.

Use examples from the interview to support your arguments, ie. "At 5 minutes, 15 seconds into the interview I said or "In the early stages of the interview I spoke very quickly which showed that. As you are reflecting on your own video interview, it is preferred that you write in first person and use personal pronouns such as "" or "my" in this assessment piece. Please ensure that you use the literature to strengthen/back- up your critique. For example, Although the wording of my opening splet was appropriate, my tone of voice could have been perceived as condescending, As highlighted by ivey, Ivey and Zalaquett (2016), it is important to ensure that etc etc. Please see the Marking Guide for more information

To assist you to critically reflect on your video, you may choose to transcribe your Videoed Interview (write up word for word" what you and the interviewee said) before you analyse it. There is a process recording template available under the 'Assessment tab on the course site that you can use to transcribe and begin analysing the videoed interview Please do not submit your process recording
