The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of client violence(CV) prevention education program. The program was held for 15 practitioners at ‘S’ Senior Welfare Center for once a week for 2 hours and 4 sessions from 28 Jan to 25 Feb 2016. The control group consisted of 15 practitioners at‘B’Senior Welfare Center. Data was collected using a non-equivalent control group pretest -posttest comparison design. In order to test the effectiveness of program, we conducted a nonparametric conditional two-step comparison analysis on the rate of change in preparedness against CV, self-confidence during the process of responding to CV, knowledge on CV prevention and response, ability to respond to CV, and self-efficacy. The first step, a Wilcoxon signed ranks test, showed the treatment group’s statistically significant change compared to the control group in preparedness against CV, self-confidence during the process of responding to CV, and knowledge on CV prevention and response. The second step, Mann-Whitney rank-sum test, showed the treatment group’s statistically significant change compared to the control group in ability to respond to CV and Self-efficacy. The research findings suggest practical implications and recommendations for CV prevention education program in the social work field.
