Resumen

Objective: This paper presents a preliminary study about verbal behaviour of a physiotherapist exploring possibilities of a system of coding verbal behaviour   developed before to study verbal behaviour of psychologists Methods: Principal variable verbal behaviour of physiotherapist was coded using  Frojan’s the categorization system of the therapist's verbal behaviour (SISC-CVT) that includes several different types of verbal behaviours: discriminative, evocative, reinforcement, punishment, informative, instructional, motivational. Record during a first clinical session of Physical Therapy sample compress seven physiotherapists Results: Regarding inter-rater reliability, Kappa values were modest: very good (1), good (1), moderate (6), weak (7), poor (2). The discriminative category was the most repeated with an average of 71.20 interventions per session, followed by the reinforcement category with an average of 59.05 interventions per session. The less frequency appeared in the results of the evocative category, with an average of 4.4 interventions per session, and of the punitive category, appearing twice for every first 5 clinical sessions Conclusions: This paper presents some preliminary results from a different approach to research verbal behaviour of physiotherapists. Future research need more training of coding to increase reliability. SISC-CVT reveals differences between several physiotherapist We encourage other researchers to continue exploring verbal behaviour of physiotherapists.
