Results of the study found that a significant number of students had trauma histories, that they developed symptoms of STS while in their field experience, and that some developed symptoms of VT. Results indicate the necessity for trauma training, including self-care, for all faculty members, supervising fi eld instructors, and student interns to support the field experienceenresearchvicarious traumasocial work studentseducationsecondary traumatic stressArticle
