Course description
This course will critically examine the history and current status of the scientist-practitioner model with a particular emphasis on how practitioners can incorporate an evidence-based approach across a range of applied psychology disciplines. The course will be broadly divided into three components: Principles of Evidence-Based Practice; Principles of Assessment and Psychometrics; and the Scientist-Practitioner in Action.
