Directory of Internship and Post-doctoral Fellowships in Clinical Child/pediatric Psychology, 1997


Book Description

This directory was created to assist psychology graduate students, faculty, and clinical supervisors in identifying predoctoral internships and post-doctoral fellowships that provide specific training emphases in clinical child and/or pediatric psychology. The directory is not intended as a substitute for the Directory of Internship and Post-Doctoral Programs in Professional Psychology published by the Association of Psychology Post-Doctoral and Internship Center. Rather, it is intended as a complementary resource to the APIC directory. All programs that were self-defined as offering training in "clinical child psychology" and/or "pediatric psychology" are included. Although not an official publication of the American Psychological Association or APA's Division 12, this directory was established and completed with the support of the Section on Clinical Child Psychology (Section I) and the Society of Pediatric Psychology (Section V) of the Division of Clinical Psychology of the APA.

The School Psychologist in Nontraditional Settings


Book Description

Originally published in 1989, school psychology, according to the contributors of this unique volume, is an approach to problem solving, not simply a setting- specific profession. Following Lightner Witmer's original notion, the editors lay a foundation for the field of school psychology in "nontraditional" settings. Such nontraditional practice stems from data showing that school psychologists display skills and abilities that can be applied successfully to a variety of client needs in numerous settings. This special book directly affects both the practicing school psychologist and those in training, as well as professionals and students in clinical child psychology, counseling, and educational psychology.
