Abstract

This program seeks to prepare clinical psychologists for scientific careers in a variety of academic settings. Psychologists, who are well versed in psychological theory, experimental methodology, and quantitative skills, possess talents that are critical for conducting clinical research. Nevertheless, additional preparation is needed to enable psychologists to work effectively on multidisciplinary teams, address current challenges in the field of mental health, and compete successfully for independent research funding. Accordingly, in this competing renewal application, we propose to continue and refine an existing, integrated program of predoctoral and postdoctoral training for promising clinical psychological scientists. By recruiting graduate students in clinical psychology who have demonstrated scholarly accomplishments, we are uniquely positioned to identify and prepare talented psychologists for academic careers.
