Examines the value and some critiques of the Critical Incident Stress Management system of debriefing. Debriefing is almost always found to be helpful and the boundaries of its usefulness are still being explored. Some criticisms of debriefing are based on misconceptions. Some evaluative studies have flaws in their arguments and methodology. Carefull assessment needs to be made of the claims that debriefing harms people. Critiques should be based on high quality research. Recommendations to abandon CISM prgrams should be accompanied by credible alternatives.
