     The results of a study of a single supervisor in his relationship
     to three supervisee are recorded. Instructions in a technical
     subject took place in sessions of one hour  and with only one
     supervisee at the time. Each supervisee attended six sessions
     (once every two weeks in a twelve-week period). All of 18 sessions
     were recorded and for each session the 'statements' of the
     supervisor were classified into four categories. Thus for each
     session the proportion of statements in the four categories are
     set out in a two-way table according to the fortnight (6) and the
     supervisee (3).

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     For each session the 'statements' of the supervisor were
     classified into four categories

_C: commanding, posing a specific instruction to the supervisee,

_D: demanding, posing a specific question to the supervisee,

_E: exposing, providing the supervisee with an explanation,

_F: faulting, pointing out faulty technique to the supervisee. Thus for
     each session the proportion of statements in the four categories
     are set out in a two-way table according to the fortnight (6) and
     the supervisee (3). The  C, D, E, F values in the rows sum mostly
     to 1, except for some rounding errors.
