Seven (7) community service psychologists were still in community service while one (1) had already completed their stipulated year of service.
A single, structured interview was used to collect the data. Grounded theory was utilized in the analysis of the qualitative data. Comparisons were drawn between the experiences of the community service psychologists in relation to their individual experiences in order to extract common themes. Significant individual experiences where noted and discussed.
The findings indicate dissatisfaction with the management and implementation of the Community Service Psychology Program amount the participants. In addition, psychological trauma in regard to fear over safety and abusive or alienating management structures within the environments serviced by the Community Service Psychologists was noted.
The implications and applications of this study can be far-reaching as research is direly lacking in the arena of Community Service structures and facilitation within the South African context.
