Description

This course is designed to help students become knowledgeable about the role of supervision in the training of clinical psychologists. Specifically, the course examines definitions of supervision, the supervisory relationship, models of supervision, the function of evaluation, supervision teaching formats and interventions, current research, legal and ethical issues, and the impact of the following issues on supervision: gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, social class, and other cultural issues. A distinction between supervision and consultation is made. Although consultation may involve similar skills as supervision, differences in function, role and responsibility are discussed.
