5 Guidelines for Interpersonal Process Recording (IPR) The client's last name is never to be used, rather he or she is to be identified by the first and last initial ex. Mr. F. S. Any references used should be footnoted and a bibliography attached. Credit will be deducted for spelling and grammatical errors. The rubric for evaluation for the IPR should be read before writing this paper. An introduction is an essential part of the IPR in order to acquaint the reader with the setting, and circumstances in which the interaction took place. This should include the client's facial expression, voice quality, and appropriateness of dress and grooming. CLIENT VERBATIM NURSE VERBATIM These sections should include the verbatim statements of the nurse and the client during the interaction. Time lapses and silences should be noted, as well as the length of the silence. This section is to be written in an objective fashion, without any interpretations on the part of the student. Six client verbatim with corresponding six nurse verbatim is the minimum submission for this assignment. NON VERBAL BEHAVIOR OF NURSE AND CLIENT This section is to be used for recording communication and behavior that is not verbalized. Significant gestures, facial expressions, body postures, tones of voice, eye contact, etc., should be noted both the client's and the nurse's. For example, it should be recorded that the voice dropped to a whisper when he spoke about his mother's death. Examples of behavioral "clues" to anxiety should be included. INTERPRETATION OF INTERACTION You should give your ideas as to what was going on in a dynamic sense during the interaction. How did you perceive the client to feel? How did you feel? You should also note any disorders of mental status or thought process that were present and defense mechanisms that were employed by the nurse or client. Any shifts in the conversation made by either the client or the nurse should be noted. Your interpretations should be supported with theoretical knowledge. You should identify what type of therapeutic (or nontherapeutic) communication technique is demonstrated by your statement. ALTERNATE RESPONSES This is one of the most important parts of the IPR and is heavily weighted in terms of evaluation. This section provides the student with an opportunity to look back on the interaction and to formulate responses that might have been more effective than the one used. Although the interaction itself may have been ineffective in achieving the stated goal, it can still be a learning experience, and be a guide for future interactions. Each alternative response should be accompanied by a rationale (either theoretical or your own logic) as to why it might promote more effective communication. Every student response must have an alternate or it will be returned to be redone. *SUMMARY EVALUATION Each IPR should include a concise summary evaluation, particularly in relation to the established goal of the interaction. The student should include the strengths and weaknesses of the interaction as well as writing objectives for client care based on her interpretation. The student should include objectives for his or her own improvement. The participation of both the nurse and the client should be evaluated. References should be cited in a bibliography. REFERENCES References should be listed according to APA format. This paper must have theoretical perspectives in the analysis, and your sources should be cited on the last page.
