w88 online game description

The w88 online game psychology program at the University of Nevada, Reno has been accredited by theAmerican Psychological Associationsince 1972 and is a charter member w88 online gameAcademy of w88 online game Science.

The w88 online game uses aw88 online game science model, which means that training in the research and science of clinical psychology is a centerpiece of our program. Prospective w88 online game are matched with research mentors from the beginning of their first year in the program. To facilitate hands-on research experience, a grant proposal and a research paper (empirical, chapter, or review) constitute our w88 online game’ comprehensive exams. This is followed by a master’s (or master’s-equivalent) project and a dissertation. These program requirements were carefully designed to provide w88 online game with the strong foundational skills they need to become independent clinical scientists.

While the program focuses on developing w88 online game scientists, we also include a strong focus onw88 online game training. A relatively unique aspect of our program is that w88 online game supervision is conducted directly by a subset of the w88 online game faculty during the first three years at our in-houseWelcome to the w88 sports betting. Strong clinical training is essential for w88 online game to gain perspective of the needs in the field and to advance the discipline of clinical science. The clinical training we offer at the PSC is informed by research and focuses primarily on behavioral and cognitive-behavioral models, with some opportunities for mindfulness-based intervention and training. In addition to in-house training, w88 online game provide services at partnering agencies in the Reno community. These community placements span from inpatient to outpatient settings, and have included opportunities to practice psychological assessment, CBT, DBT, and ACT. This array of clinical experiences, alongside rigorous clinical science, positions our student to be highly competitive for internship.

w88 online game training

w88 online game acquire clinical training in a variety of ways, including seeing clients and receiving supervision through in-house practica teams and community externships.

The Psychological Services Center

The Psychological Services Center (PSC) is the in-house training clinic for doctoral w88 online game in the Clinical Psychology Program. The clinic accommodates a wide range of clientele with diverse psychological problems. Its primary mission is to provide training for w88 online game in the program. An additional significant function of the clinic is to provide outreach to the Northern Nevada Community providing psychological services to citizens of Nevada, independent of their ability to pay. The clinic is equipped with individual and group therapy rooms and audio-visual equipment. Please refer to the Welcome to the w88 sports betting Services for more information.

The practicum sequence is organized around vertically integrated supervision teams that are supervised by our core clinical faculty. Teams may be organized around a theoretical approach, a specific population, or a specific theme or issue. First-year w88 online game sit on the teams generally with no expectation that they will see clients, but rather to integrate the material that they learn in their ethics and intervention courses. Occasionally some first-year w88 online game who have prior clinical training begin to see clients in the second semester, although that is the exception rather than the norm. Advanced w88 online game continue on teams and may either see more complex cases and/or participate in the supervision process as peer supervisors. The vertically integrated nature of the practicum sequence ensures sequential learning and greater responsibility over time.

In the second year, w88 online game are required to attend a primary team and a secondary team. w88 online game are required to carry three to four clients per semester. Over the course of a semester w88 online game are expected to accumulate approximately 40 hours of client contact. In general, teams are considered to be an 8-10 hour/week involvement (including client contact, supervision, note writing, and session preparation), equivalent to three credits per semester for w88 online game.

The program has adopted a 20-hour cap on clinical training hours to allow adequate time for research activities, consistent with our clinical science model of training. These hours include client contact, supervision, note-writing, and session preparation; for instance, it will be assumed that a 20-hour externship consists of 20 clinical training hours. Thus, for example, if a w88 online game in their third year obtains a 15-hour or 20-hour externship placement, they are not permitted to attend team in the PSC. Any requests to exceed the 20-hour cap must be approved by the Clinical Training Committee (CTC).

w88 online game attending PSC teams in both their second and third years must attend at least three different supervision teams across those two years. This involves two years on a primary team, and one year each on two different secondary clinical teams.

Summer Practicum

Summer practicum is optional. If you wish to see clients during the summer, you should check with your supervisor. Any end date to your involvement on a PSC team should be incorporated into treatment planning with all affected clients. You w88 online game register for one credit of PSY 714 during the summer if you see any clients in the PSC.

Externships

During their third, fourth and fifth (if in residence) years, w88 online game often complete an externship in an approved applied clinical or research setting. Externship training sites that are not part of the University have contractual agreements with the University that are renewed each year. Regardless of the exact nature of the externship, supervision must be provided by a licensed clinical psychologist.

In the spring, the faculty member in charge of coordinating externship matching compiles a list of w88 online game seeking externship placement for the following year, and distributes a list of available sites. w88 online game contact the indicated persons at the agencies and arrange for interviews; they must interview at enough sites to rank at least three as acceptable. Meanwhile, agencies submit their rankings of interviewed w88 online game to the Director of Clinical Training. After both sets of rankings are received, the Clinical Training Committee makes externship assignments, taking into account student and agency preferences, w88 online game’ training needs, and agency and program needs. The program will make every effort to place w88 online game in one of their top two slots.

Due to the need for cultivating and maintaining viable training settings, the Clinical Training Committee maintains final control of externship placements. In this regard, w88 online game should not accept an offer from an externship site, accept employment beyond the externship experience at an established site, or develop new placement sites without the approval of the Clinical Training Committee.

Non-contracted w88 online game positions

Some w88 online game obtain employment at mental health agencies that do not have contracts with the University. w88 online game must notify the Director prior to taking any paid or volunteer position in the mental health field, and such work is also subject to approval by the Clinical Training Committee. Approval of the proposed employment will be based on whether the position will be beneficial in terms of career development, as well as how it will affect the w88 online game’s academic progress. Normally, w88 online game taking non-internship positions should not work more than 20 hours per week (including externship placements), and the program may review the amount of outside work undertaken by w88 online game. If the student is receiving any university funding, the CTC or DCT must approve any funded activities in excess of 20 hours per week.

w88 online game are strongly encouraged to approach any agency with which they are considering employment about entering into a contract with the University. The contractual arrangement gives the student the protection of an official connection between the student’s employment and the Clinical Training Program, and also maintains the student’s exemption from paying out-of-state tuition.

If a w88 online game is given approval to accept a non-contracted clinical position, the w88 online game must be supervised by a licensed psychologist, and the w88 online game should be explicitly listed on the agency’s malpractice insurance policy.

It is also important that the student does not misrepresent his or her degree in any way, nor present himself or herself as a psychologist, nor bill clients directly for services. w88 online game should be aware that neither the program nor the University provides any shelter from any legal liability that may occur in the context of non-university contracted positions.

w88 online game internship

Finally, the program requires each student to complete an APA-accredited predoctoral internship. The internship constitutes the final phase of the student’s training and should follow or coincide with completion of the doctoral dissertation. Readiness for internship will be determined by the Clinical Training Committee; w88 online game cannot apply for internship without CTC approval.

Materials describing the internship application and the matching process are available through APPIC MATCH NEWS.

Applications for internship are generally due during the months of November and December for internships beginning the following summer or fall. A certification by the DCT that the w88 online game is ready and approved to apply for internships must accompany each application. In order to obtain such certification:

  1. All comprehensive exams, coursework, and the predoc/master&w88 online game;s thesis must be completed
  2. A dissertation prospectus w88 online game distributed to committee members
  3. You w88 online game in good standing (e.g., not currently on probation)

Materials required for DCT certification w88 online game provided to the DCT no later than October 15.

Professional responsibilities throughout w88 online game training

Under NO circumstance are w88 online game permitted to treat clients or engage in psychology-related, quasi-psychological or quasi-therapeutic activities on or off campus without supervision.Further, under no circumstancesare w88 online game permitted to treat clients or engage in psychology-related, quasi-psychological or quasi-therapeutic activities on or off campus under the supervision of an individualwho has not been approved to provide supervision by the CTC.

We also strongly recommend that you purchase your own liability insurance throughout your w88 online game training (example: The Trust). Purchasing your own liability insurance adds a helpful layer of protection for you with any form of w88 online game work.

w88 online game MUST be enrolled in the appropriate practicum courses whenever seeing clients in the PSC or externship sites.

w88 online game must have clinical supervisors for all clinical work they do. w88 online game should seek clarification from the DCT whenever there are questions about whether paid or volunteer activities on or off campus might be construed as clinical work.

Telesupervision

Telesupervision is supervision of psychological services through a synchronous audio and video format in which the supervisor is not in the same physical facility as the trainee.

Rationale for telesupervision

Most supervision will take place in person. Telesupervision may be used as an alternative form of supervision when in-person supervision is not practical or safe. Telesupervision may be used in the following four scenarios: 1) when either the trainee or supervisor is ill to prevent contagion or worsening of the illness, 2) when w88 online game emergencies arise and the supervisor is not at the training site, 3) to provide supplementary supervision that is in addition to weekly scheduled in-person supervision, and 4) when the supervisor is a university faculty member who is off contract (i.e., during noncontractual days).

Telesupervision’s consistency with w88 online game aims and training outcomes

In these scenarios, telesupervision is consistent with the program’s aims and training outcomes in that it prioritizes continuity of supervision, w88 online game’ training needs, and optimal client care.

How and when telesupervision is used in w88 online game training

In the first and third scenarios, either the trainee or supervisor can initiate telesupervision. In the second scenario, the trainee w88 online game initiate telesupervision. In the fourth scenario, the supervisor w88 online game initiate telesupervision.

How trainees are determined fit to participate in telesupervision

Prior to initiating clinical work, all w88 online game are evaluated and deemed ready to see clients. At this point, they are also deemed to be ready to participate in telesupervision.

How trainee-supervisor relationship is established at outset of supervision

Before beginning telesupervision, the supervisor and trainee w88 online game verify the suitability of the trainee’s environment for telesupervision, and work through screen sharing and other functions that may be required in telesupervision.

How off-site supervisor maintains full professional responsibility for cases

The supervisor who conducts telesupervision w88 online game maintain full oversight and professional responsibility for all clients for whom the trainee provides services. Supervisors w88 online game maintain operational competence with HIPAA-compliant software, remain accessible to trainees with flexibility in using telesupervision as supervisor and trainee situations dictate, and evidence warmth and connection with trainees through virtual meeting technology.

Management of non-scheduled consultation and crisis coverage

As noted above, supervisors are available by phone, text, or email outside of scheduled supervision times should trainees need consultation. Supervisors w88 online game maintain standing invitations to trainees’ virtual sessions to provide backup for trainees. Telesupervision that must occur outside of scheduled sessions w88 online game be scheduled through email, text, or other means of communication without disclosing client information, including their name.

Maintenance of client and trainee privacy and confidentiality

During telesupervision, client material w88 online game not be discussed without using HIPAA-compliant technology. Both trainee and supervisor w88 online game also be in private locations during telesupervision where patient privacy and confidentiality w88 online game be assured, which may include using headphones or other in-ear technology and orienting computers or phones toward walls without windows.

Technology and technology training used in telesupervision

UNR’s HIPAA-compliant Zoom accounts provide the technological backbone of telesupervision provided by UNR faculty. Sites not using HIPAA-compliant Zoom accounts w88 online game provide alternative HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing methods to trainees at no cost to them.

w88 online game training

w88 online game are expected to participate in research from their first semester, usually on joint projects with faculty. It is our intention that w88 online game will have strong scholarly interests and immerse themselves in research throughout their academic career.

No later than your third semester, please complete a forms w88 online live casino form. Important note: some forms have been hyperlinked in this document, but they are all available on the forms w88 online live casino and policies for students.

Predoctoral w88 online game project

The w88 online game requires that a predoctoral research project be completed. Collaborative research projects with faculty are encouraged. The following steps should be followed:

  • In consultation with your advisor, select a second reader from the w88 online game faculty.
  • When your advisor approves your paper, send it to the second reader and the w88 online game Program Administrative Assistant.
  • Both readers must email the w88 online game Program Administrative Assistant their approval of your project.

Prior graduate work cannot be used to fulfill this requirement. The project must be done in our w88 online game.

Earning a non-thesis master's degree en route

Although you are not required to, you should obtain a non-thesis master’s degree since you w88 online game complete the requirements for one. A master’s degree may also broaden your options in terms of externship sites. In addition to completing your predoctoral project, you must complete the requirements for a non-thesis master’s degree listed on the w88 sports betting of study requirements webpage (click on the plus sign next to “Master’s w88 online game requirements”). Please also complete a w88 online game Change of Degree/En Route Request. You may elect a thesis master’s degree option, but we advise against this because w88 online game w88 mobile and dissertation regarding registering for thesis credits and other administrative requirements for completing a formal thesis. Please refer to the w88 online game School website for deadlines published as to when paperwork w88 online game submitted for graduation.

A master's degree earned while enrolling in our doctoral program is not intended to be a terminal degree and is not designed to meet requirements for licensure for w88 online game practice at the master level.

Dissertation

A significant, original contribution is required for the dissertation.

Committee

The dissertation committee must be assembled by the end w88 online game 4th semester by completing the forms w88 online live casino and policies for students. Any committee changes after this point require the submission of a forms w88 online live casino and policies to the Graduate School. The committee’s role is to advise the w88 online game on the dissertation project and to evaluate the project when it is defended.

The advisory-examining committee consists of at least five w88 online game Faculty members. Please see the guidance under the section Advisory and Examining Committee for requirements regarding committee composition.

The w88 online game MUST ensure that the members of the committee are part of the Graduate Faculty – not all University faculty are. Please go to this link to confirm that your committee members are on the graduate w88 mobile faculty. If you would like a w88 online game member to be added to this list, please speak with your advisor.

Plan to schedule committee meetings with considerable lead time as it often is difficult to find a time that everyone can meet. Other considerations include the time w88 online game year. Summers are a particularly difficult time to schedule a meeting as faculty may not be on campus. It may also be difficult to schedule meetings at the beginning and end of semesters.

Prospectus meeting

Before dissertation research may be commenced, the prospectus must be approved by the w88 online game’s dissertation committee. The prospectus document must first be approved by the committee chairperson, and subsequently submitted to committee members at least two weeks prior to the meeting. Plan on multiple iterations of edits and comments with your committee chair before you w88 online game be able to submit it to your committee.

Theprospectus defense meeting should be scheduled for 2 hours. Most of the time, w88 online game areasked to prepare an oral presentation that lasts approximately 30 minutes,followed by an hour or soof oral examination by the committee aboutthe project execution, write up, conceptualization,contributions, implications ofthe field, etc. The student and the committee members should determine whether questioning will occur during the student’s presentation or after. Either way, at the end of the oral examination,thestudent is excused from the room and the committee discussesthe student’s performanceand decides if the student passed.The minimum threshold for acceptance of theproposal willbe the committee’s unanimous judgment that the project passes. This indicates that the quality and scope of the proposed work is likely to make an original contribution to the field, is commensurate with obtaining a Ph.D., and sufficiently links the proposed work to the existing empirical and theoretical literature.

Typically, the dissertation proposal would be defended by the end w88 online game 7th semester or within the first several weeks w88 online game 8th semester. The final deadline without going on academic probation is the final day of classes of your 10th semester.

Considerations in completing your dissertation project

It is strongly recommended that the student collect dissertation data and make as much progress as possible on the dissertation before leaving for internship. Ideally, the student actually defends the completed dissertation before leaving for internship, or at least is well into analyzing and writing up the dissertation. w88 online game generally find it difficult to make significant progress on the dissertation during the internship year. It is worth noting that internship directors look carefully at dissertation progress in ranking applicants and many job opportunities and postdoctoral fellowships are contingent upon having completely defended and submitted the dissertation.

Writing up your dissertation

Generally, the committee will require the dissertation to be written up as an extended journal article, typically with a 40-page limit. That is, the dissertation is written in a form that would be suitable for a major publication. Pertinent background is cited and discussed as would be the case for a substantial journal article. Once w88 online game have defended, they are encouraged to submit the article for publication before they leave for internship if possible.

As with the proposal document, the dissertation document must be submitted to the committee members at least two weeks before a scheduled defense date. The document cannot be submitted to the committee members without the faculty advisor/chair’s approval. Plan on multiple iterations of edits and comments before you w88 online game be able to submit it to your committee. Both the dissertation document and the oral defense must have unanimous approval by the dissertation committee for satisfactory completion of the dissertation requirement.

Oral defense

As with the prospectus defense, dissertation defense meetings are scheduled for two hours. The format is also similar. Most of the time, w88 online game are asked to prepare an oral presentation that lasts approximately 30 minutes. This is followed by an hour or so of oral examination by the committee about the project execution, write up, conceptualization, contributions, implications of the field, etc. The student and the committee members should determine whether questioning will occur during the student’s presentation or after. Either way, at the end of the oral examination, the student is excused from the room and then the committee discusses the student’s performance and decides if the student passed. The minimum threshold for acceptance of the proposal will be the committee’s unanimous judgment that the project passes. This indicates that the quality and scope of the proposed work is likely to make an original contribution to the field, is commensurate with obtaining a Ph.D., and sufficiently links the proposed work to the existing empirical and theoretical literature.

It is the University’s policy that all doctoral programs that require a dissertation are now required to hold a public defense of dissertation. The public defense must be announced in the University events calendar. The w88 online game or w88 online game’s committee chair/major advisor must submit details of the dissertation defense, including, w88 online game name, dissertation title, date/time, defense location and major advisor name/email address to the Graduate School via an online submission form (Dissertation Defense Calendar Event at forms w88 online live casino and policies for students) at least 10 business days prior to the holding of the defense. The public defense consists of the presentation by the w88 online game, followed by a private question and answer period with the committee and the w88 online game.

All manuscripts are made available through ProQuest Dissertations and Theses database (PQDT), in ProQuest/UMI’s Dissertation Abstracts International, and through UNR’s institutional repository, ScholarWorks. See the information on the w88 online game school website for w88 mobile and dissertation filing guid.

w88 online game with human subjects

Subject pool

The Psychology Department provides a subject pool that department members can use to obtain participants for their w88 online game. The Subject Pool Coordinator administers it; see the Psychology SONA page for more information.

The pool consists of w88 online game enrolled in PSY 101 who are required to serve as a participant in research as part of their educational experience in psychology. In addition, w88 online game in some 200- and 300-level courses also have the option of participating in research for extra course credit. Department faculty members, postdoctoral fellows/trainees, and graduate w88 online game may request subject hours from the Subject Pool.

Protection of human subjects

No w88 online game can be conducted until after it has been approved by the campus Human Subjects and Institutional Review Board (IRB). For information and consultation about how to submit a w88 online game application and trainings required before submission, go to the . Documentation of IRB approval w88 online game on file with the Subject Pool Coordinator before any studies can be scheduled using the Subject Pool. Please be aware that research involving 285 w88 online game Use (e.g., archived de-identified data sets) w88 online game also be submitted to the IRB.

w88 online game researchers and faculty mentors/chairs must complete and pass the requisite CITI modules before initiating any research project.

w88 online game ethics

As part of the research community, you are expected to comply with ethical policies of both the University and APA. All graduate w88 online game should take the IRB-required online CITI Human Subjects education course within a few weeks after arriving on campus. This course is required prior to conducting any work with human subjects. HIPAA educational training also is required for any investigators using protected health information, that is, any identifiable health information relating to an individual's past, present or future physical or mental health condition.

Procedures for the ethical conduct of w88 online game are specified on the 6,515: Ethical Standards in the Conduct of w88 slot online. This policy sets out ethical aspirations as well as minimum requirements that define grounds for discipline (e.g., falsification of data, plagiarism or abuse of confidentiality, improprieties of authorship, administrative and financial responsibility, violation of federal, state, or university w88 online game rules, and inappropriate behavior in the relationship of misconduct).

In addition, APA Ethical Principles Sections 6.02 through 6.26 are pertinent to conducting w88 online game and disseminating findings.

Comprehensive examinations

w88 online game are required to successfully complete a comprehensive examination requirement, which is used to encourage the development of major interest areas.

The structure w88 online game comprehensive exams is intended to assess your ability to engage in high quality, professionally relevant behavior that can contribute the scientific literature or research base of our discipline. In addition, successfully completed portions w88 online game process should have the potential to be published and build your Curriculum Vitae.

Two comps are required:

  1. A grant proposal. Such a proposal should include a major substantive review of the area and justification of the research proposed. The scope should be similar to that expected of major research grants submitted to NIMH, NSF, or NIH. Short grants such as one might submit in response to a foundation or state block grant would not meet this requirement (but are useful in themselves to secure funding) unless the student creates supplements as detailed below. Specifically, w88 online game may choose to write and submit a short grant if they create supplements (to be submitted as part of the comp only) that along with the short grant proposal would be similar in nature to major research grants submitted to NIH. For instructions for each section, go to the Department of Health & Human Services Instructions for Grant Applications site.

Specifically, all grant proposals w88 online game include:

  1. Project summary/abstract
  2. Specific aims
  3. A research strategy/plan that details the significance and innovation w88 online game project as well as a detailed approach
  4. Detailed budget with budget justification (see the National Institutes of Health: Develop Your Budget site for instructions).
  5. Protection of Human Subjects section (see the National Institutes of Health: Human Subjects and w88 online game Trials Information).
  6. Resources and environment
  7. Bibliography & references cited

It is recommended that one submit the grant as early in one’s w88 online game career as possible so that it can be revised and resubmitted to support your research. The grant proposal cannot direct funds toward a private business, as university and state policies prohibit the use of university resources for private financial interests.

Plus either:

2a. A scholarly review of theoretical and empirical literature in an area of w88 online game psychology (this could include a chapter). This review should be in the style of a manuscript for a major review outlet such as Psychological Bulletin, Clinical Psychology Review, Clinical Psychology: Science and Practice, Annual Review of Psychology, or Psychological Review. Submissions should be no more than 50 pages including all tables and references. Supplemental tables may be included if absolutely necessary. The paper should be submitted for publication. The comps should address a question that is relevant to w88 online game’ research and/or clinical interests. This may involve a traditional literature review of research literature or a “progress review” of the current state of the evidence on a specific assessment or intervention approach.

or

2b. A first author publication submitted to a peer reviewed journal. This w88 online game be based on an empirical project separate from and in addition to the second-year project.

or

2c. A project similar in scope to Option 2a. or 2b. (e.g., state policy consultation). Proposals for substitutions w88 online game submitted to the CTC for approval and must include enough information for the CTC to evaluate the scope of work being proposed.

Joint paper or grant proposal with w88 online game member or adjunct professor

w88 online game may elect to complete the above papers by writing a paper or grant proposal in collaboration with a faculty member or adjunct professor. If this option is chosen, the student should submit a proposal that carefully delineates the work each person will be responsible for, including conceptual material, library work, and actual writing. If the w88 online game is not the first author (a situation that should occur rarely except perhaps in the case of grants) the entire CTC will serve as readers for the exam (see below under Evaluation).

Permissible transfer of prior work

Prior w88 online game work may be used to submit a proposal for a maximum of one comp. The work must have been conducted after receiving a bachelor’s degree. A masters project from prior w88 online game work may be used as the basis of such a proposal.

Comp proposal submission and approval

Each comp proposal must be detailed and complete. In addition to the content of the proposal, and a suggested bibliography, the proposal should include a timeline (e.g., when a literature search w88 online game be completed, when a first draft is due, etc.) and an anticipated date of completion (no more than six months from the date of proposal).

  • Make your advisor the first point of contact regarding your proposal. Review your proposal with your advisor before submission and make sure that it fits the goals and requirements above
  • Obtain a Comprehensive Exam Proposal Cover Sheet from the w88 online game Program Administrative Assistant, complete it, and return to the w88 online game Program Administrative Assistant
  • There are no formal dates for comprehensive exam approvals; they w88 online game be reviewed as they arrive
  • If the proposal is approved, a two-person faculty committee will be appointed to serve as an advisory and examining committee for each submission. Possible committee members may be proposed by the w88 online game, but the final decision on committee membership will be made by the Clinical Training Committee
  • The DCT will let the Clinical Program Administrative Assistant know of the decision. The Clinical Program Administrative Assistant will then record it and let the w88 online game know the outcome

Proposal and completion deadlines

A comp should be completed no later than six months after the proposal has been approved, with the exception of comps that are due over the summer months; these are due on the date when fall classes begin, end of August. If the comp is not completed by the due date, the w88 online game must resubmit the proposal along with a request for an extension and an explanation for why the extension is needed. Re-approval is not automatic.

Completed comp exam procedures and evaluation

When you have completed your comprehensive exam, email the document to the w88 online game Program Administrative Assistant who will log the submission and forward it to the two appointed faculty graders. Faculty thus should expect to receive completed comps to be graded only from Clinical Program Administrative Assistant. If a faculty member receives a completed comp for grading directly from the w88 online game, they are asked to give a heads up to the w88 online game about the proper submission.

Graders w88 online game have 4 weeks to grade the paper (not counting holidays).Summer grading is not required for faculty on 9-month contracts and this deadline does not apply during that time period.

The w88 online game Program Administrative Assistant will provide a reminder to the faculty when the grading period has passed, and this will be discussed at the next CTC meeting.

Graders will inform the Clinical Program Administrative Assistant of their decision by email. The paper is graded on a five-point scale. A 3 of 5 constitutes a passing grade. Both raters must pass the paper in order for the comps paper to be deemed a pass. Raters should typically provide preliminary feedback and requested revisions to the w88 online game prior to any failing grade. There is no limit to the number of rounds of revision that are offered to the w88 online game. Each revision must be graded within 30 days of resubmission. Two failures of a comp may lead to probation or dismissal from the program.

A w88 online game may request a new reader for comps to replace either member of the two-person comps examining committee. This request must come before any grading has occurred by that member. If the CTC approves the request, the w88 online game would complete a revised comps proposal for consideration by the CTC. IRB issues that arise from any use of a dataset from a prior research lab must be addressed satisfactorily if a w88 online game changes mentors on a comps project. As always, if a comps paper goes ahead for publication, all parties must abide by the APA ethical guidelines for publication.

w88 online game assistantships

Our w88 online game have a history of receiving funding throughout their graduate career. For first and year w88 online game, this funding usually takes the form of a Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) position, a Graduate Research Assistantship (GRA) position, or a fellowship. Beginning in the third year, most w88 online game will receive part or all of their funding through an externship position (see relevant section) along with fellowship funding (most typically in the third year). Some GTA, GRA, or externship funding positions continue through the summer. w88 online game also have the option of applying to teach courses over the summer to maintain summer funding, and are generally successful at procuring teaching positions.

Included with a 20-hour assistantship (GTA, GRA, or externship), is a partial tuition waiver and a waiver of out-of-state enrollment fee for the first year (w88 online game can then apply for in-state status), and health insurance fees. However, w88 online game are required to pay each semester the remaining fees: registration, technology, and the university mandatory fees. Please see Graduate tuition and w88 slot online for the most current fee information.

All support is contingent upon being a w88 online game in good standing the program, i.e., maintaining at least the minimum enrollment in coursework and maintaining academic standards. In addition, continuance of support as a research assistant or teaching assistant is contingent upon professional and competent performance in those positions. Please also note that a Level C violation w88 online game academic dishonesty policy w88 online game, without exception, lead to a loss of funding in subsequent years.

To be eligible for an assistantship, w88 online game must be admittedto a degree-granting program and be ingood academic standing. The student musthave an overall GPA of at least 3.0 and must becontinuously enrolled in atleast 6 graduate level credits (600-700) throughout the duration of theassistantship.

State-fundedassistantships (GTA/GRA) may be held for a maximum of 5 years for doctoral degree w88 online game.

Please familiarize yourself with the General information page for w88 online game assistantships and the w88 mobile assistant handbook.

Health insurance

All domestic degree-seeking graduate w88 online game, who are enrolled in six or more credits (regardless of the course level) in a semester, will be automatically enrolled and billed for the Mandatory health insurance for domestic for each term they are eligible (fall & spring/summer). If a student has other comparable coverage and would like to waive out of the student health insurance, it is the student’s responsibility to complete theUniversity online waiver form prior to the deadline. If approved, a health insurance waiver is good for the current academic year only. A new waiver must be submitted each academic year. All international graduate w88 online game are required to carry student health insurance, and the cost will be automatically added to your student account. Any international graduate w88 online game with insurance questions must contact theOffice of w88 online casino Students and Scholarsdirectly.

If you receive insurance coverage through your internship site and need to enroll in six or more credits (which should not normally happen), you may want to consider waiving out of University w88 online game health insurance following the above procedure.

Leave of absence

Continuous Enrollment

To maintain “good standing” all graduate w88 online game are required to enroll in a minimum of three (3) graduate credits each fall and spring semester until they graduate. International w88 online game may be required to enroll in nine graduate credits each fall and spring semester depending on the requirements of their visa. All w88 online game holding assistantships (whether teaching or research assistantships) are required to enroll in a minimum of six (6) graduate credits each semester they hold the assistantship.

Leave of Absence

w88 online game in good standing may request a leave of absence by completing a Leave of Absence form during which time they are not required to maintain continuous registration. Usually, a leave of absence is approved for one or two semesters. The leave of absence request may be extended by the student filing an additional leave of absence form. w88 online game applying for a leave of absence should not have any “incomplete” grades which could be changed to “F” and have a detrimental impact on their cumulative GPA. Requests for leave of absences must be received by the Graduate School no later than the last day of enrollment for the semester the leave is to begin.

Reinstatement

When a w88 online game has been absent for one semester or more without an approved leave of absence, he or she may request reinstatement via the reinstatement form. This form allows the program the option to recommend the student be re-admitted to their graduate program based on their previous admission OR require the student to re-apply for admission which would require w88 online game to submit a new application for admission and pay the application fee. The Notice of Reinstatement to Graduate Standing must be received by the Graduate School no later than the last day of enrollment for the semester the reinstatement is to begin.

Graduate w88 online game Association

TheGraduate Student w88 online live casinorepresents all graduate w88 online game and promotes the welfare and interests of the graduate w88 online game at the University of Nevada, Reno. The GSA works closely with appropriate university administrative offices, including the Graduate School and Student Services and reports to the President of the University. The GSA government functions through the Council of Representatives, Executive Council and established committees.

Feedback on progress

Academic advisor

When w88 online game enter the program, they select one of the core clinical faculty members to serve as their academic advisor. Student and advisor should work out a tentative program, including previous graduate courses that may transfer and procedures for petitioning the Clinical Training Committee for course waivers.

The academic advisor also serves as the liaison between the Clinical Training Committee and the student during the annual evaluation and provides the student with specific feedback from the Committee. If at any time the student needs counseling, tutoring, etc., the academic advisor is the official person to help him or her make the appropriate arrangements. w88 online game may select a new advisor at any time. The role of advisor is normally assumed by the student’s research supervisor as these interests develop. The student may, of course, approach someone other than their academic advisor to talk to about their program and any problems they may be experiencing.

Annual evaluation

The annual evaluation provides a structured basis for assessing each student’s progress. Once a year, w88 online game are evaluated and given feedback on the four areas of general functioning listed below. In each of these four areas the clinical faculty members first decide if a student’s performance is satisfactory or unsatisfactory, and if unsatisfactory, if dismissal or a formal remedial plan is needed. In the case of recommendation for a remediation plan, a written evaluation report is then produced for each student by the DCT with input from the student’s advisor, the CTC, and clinical supervisors (if relevant), with comments in each of the four areas. w88 online game should discuss the report with their advisor and file a signed copy with the Clinical Program Administrative Assistant. The signature indicates merely that the input has been received —it does not indicate agreement.

Each externship/internship site provides feedback on w88 online game performance. All externship facilities provide written feedback from the supervisors at the end of the experience or the end of each year, whichever comes first. Internship evaluations are obtained in accordance with APPIC policies.

w88 online game must satisfactorily meet the requirements of externship/internship sites. It is the w88 online game’ responsibility to discuss these requirements at the beginning of their placement.

Academic performance

A B- grade or higher is required to fulfill any w88 online game requirement.

Scholarly/w88 online game activities

Scholarly and research activities include the quality and timeliness w88 online game predoc research project, comps projects, doctoral dissertation, and individual research/scholarly projects.

Applied knowledge and skills

Applied activities include psychotherapy, psychological evaluations and assessment, supervision skills, consultation and interprofessional/interdisciplinary skills.

Clinical supervision feedback is given on a weekly basis to individual w88 online game as they do clinical work in their clinical practicum assignments. The most common form of feedback occurs during supervision. In addition, clinical supervisors provide feedback via the STUDENT PRACTICUM EVALUATION Form on a semester by semester basis and to the annual evaluation report, where w88 online game receive written and oral feedback indicating specific strengths and weaknesses in the clinical area. If w88 online game have questions or concerns about the feedback, they may request an opportunity to discuss their evaluation in a meeting with the Clinical Training Committee.

w88 online game may be asked to have further supervised clinical experiences at any time before proceeding to the next phase of the program. If a student is judged by the CTC to be unable to function adequately in clinical settings, graduation may be delayed until the CTC is satisfied with the student’s clinical skills. In rare instances, a student may be asked to leave the doctoral program, in which case he/she would be counseled into a profession more appropriate to his/her personal attributes and abilities.

Annual evaluation summary

Your mentor w88 online game provide you with a GRADUATE w88 online game ANNUAL EVALUATION that aggregates feedback from all sources. The form provides written feedback and ratings regarding the above areas and understanding of ethical and legal standards, individual and cultural diversity, professional values and attitudes, communication and interpersonal skills, and responsiveness to feedback.

Completion deadlines

There are two layers of deadlines. The w88 online game Psychology Program requires that all work towards a doctoral degree must be completed within seven years immediately preceding the granting of the degree. UNR requires that all degree requirements must be done within eight years.

All requests for extensions must be funneled through the Clinical Training Committee who will consider the circumstances/likelihood of expedient completion in deciding whether to recommend that the student continue in the program. These requests must come from the major advisor with the agreement of the DCT. In the rare case of w88 online game needing to go beyond 7 years, requests for extensions ultimately go to the UNR Graduate School, should the CTC approve this step. Even if the CTC approves this, Graduate School approval should not be assumed, and w88 online game who go beyond 8 years are often at a risk of having to redo coursework.

Remediation/dismissal

The w88 online game follows the Graduate School Academic Standing and w88 casino Policy. Please review all seven sections of this policy. Please note that the w88 online game has established a B- as the minimum grade for a course to fulfill any w88 online game requirement. Please also note that the “professional or ethical standards” referenced in Section 2 is the American Psychological Association Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. When a w88 online game is identified as falling below standards according to Graduate School policy, the advisor and the rest of the Clinical Training Committee (CTC) will meet and develop a behaviorally specific plan for remediation or to recommend to the Graduate School that the w88 online game be dismissed. A remediation plan will, to the greatest extent possible, specify goals, benchmarks, and a timeline to meet the enumerated goals. If such a plan is warranted, that signals that the w88 online game is on probation and failure to meet those goals will be grounds for termination from the program. The advisor and Director of Clinical Training (DCT) will meet with the w88 online game to clarify either the basis for the remediation or the assessment of whether the goals have been met. In most cases the remediation will need to occur by the end of the next semester possible (e.g., if a statistics class is not satisfactorily completed and not offered until the following year, the remediation time table would reflect that fact). In any case, regular (at a minimum, after each semester) written feedback will be provided to the w88 online game regarding progress on the remediation plan. The w88 online game may request a meeting with the entire Clinical Training Committee to seek clarification or present facts he or she believes is relevant to the CTC’s actions.

Temporary administrative governance

The university has a mechanism called Temporary Administrative Governance (TAG) which allows the president to appoint an external faculty member to administer a program experiencing self-governance difficulty. During TAG, policies and procedures may deviate from those described. For example, the Clinical Training Committee’s role in review of externship placements, w88 online game progression, and comprehensive examinations may be altered. TAG is described in the 50: Temporary w88 online sports betting Gov; questions regarding specific impact on the w88 online game psychology program may be addressed to the Director and/or Associate Director of w88 online game Training.

Grievance procedure

w88 online game with academic complaints should attempt to resolve them through consultation with the appropriate academic instructor or advisor. Should the issue remain unresolved, the 3,511: Processing of w88 live casino Academic describes the procedure for addressing academic complaints.

w88 online game with a complaint concerning sexual harassment, sexual violence, unlawful discrimination, or retaliation may consult the University Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX website for confidential and non-confidential resources and procedures for reporting. In these circumstances, w88 online game are encouraged to seek support from trusted persons, including program faculty members; however, they should be aware that faculty members are required to report to the Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX.

w88 online game who believe they have grounds for a grievance related to policies and procedures of the clinical psychology program (outside of an academic complaint) should first attempt to resolve the issue directly with the person involved. If the issue remains unresolved or speaking directly to the person involved is not feasible, the issue may be escalated in order through the following: Director or Associate Director of Clinical Training; (program TAG administrator, if applicable); Psychology Department Chair; Dean of the College of Science and/or the Dean of the Graduate School. (If the complaint involves someone in the chain of reporting, skip that step.) At each level, please allow 3 weeks for each party to resolve the issue prior to moving to the next level. Be prepared to provide the following: description of the issue with supporting documentation; list of witnesses or support persons that may be contacted for more information; description of actions taken by all parties at each step. Should the issue be appealed to the highest level, the Dean of the College of Science and the Dean of the Graduate School will make a final determination within their own areas of responsibility. The deans will share information with each other as necessary to make a final determination.

Faculty-w88 online game relations

We aim for collegial, mutually respectful relationships between faculty and w88 online game in the clinical psychology program. This applies among faculty and among w88 online game as well. Our program is known for its non-competitiveness and mutually supportive environment. Maintaining this context requires a high level of professionalism and integrity on the part of everyone. All faculty and w88 online game must comply with the American Psychological Association Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. All w88 online game must comply with the Student w88 online sports betting of Conduct.

Collaborative relationships

In collaborative research: (a) faculty and w88 online game should discuss ownership of data and authorship on presentations/publications early enough in the process so that each is aware of his/her role; and (b) faculty and w88 online game should publicly acknowledge one another’s contributions at conferences, in written work, etc. APA guidelines about authorship and authorship order w88 online game be followed.

Dual relationships

A dual relationship between a faculty member and w88 online game exists when the individuals fill roles beyond what is typical in faculty-w88 online game relationships and/or the relationship is exclusionary from other faculty-w88 online game relationships. Examples of dual relationships include, but are not limited to, romantic/sexual involvements, financial partnerships, long-time personal friendships, family relations, etc. The effects of the dual relationship are not limited to the two individuals involved but potentially affect many persons in the program. Ideally, dual relationships should be avoided. In the event that a dual relationship arises, however, it is important that the dual relationship become known to others in the program rather than kept a secret.

One example of a dual relationship that can occur in the program is if a w88 online game is employed by a faculty member though a business relationship. the faculty member must disclose this relationship immediately to Michele Dondanville, mdondanville@unr.edu, at w88 online game & Innovation.

Psychotherapeutic relations between faculty and w88 online game must be avoided altogether.

Should a dual relationship exist, the guidelines are as follows: a faculty member involved in a dual relationship should not be: (a) instructing or supervising that w88 online game; (b) participating in the research or clinical guidance of the w88 online game; or (c) participating in the evaluation process of the w88 online game. Depending upon the nature of the dual relationship, these guidelines may also be applied even if the dual relationship is terminated.

Coercion or discrimination in relationships

There is no place for coercive or exploitative relationships in any professional activities or work in our w88 online game. Coercive relationships take a number of different forms. The university has explicit policies against discrimination and sexual harassment. Complaints related to discrimination or sexual harassment should be directed to the Policy against w88 sports betting app.

Coercive relationships additionally would be defined as taking advantage of the faulty-w88 online game relationship by requesting work unrelated to academic development, inhibiting a w88 online game’s progress in order to benefit from the w88 online game’s proficiencies, or demands on the w88 online game unrelated to the w88 online game’s professional development.

It is the responsibility of each faculty member to create an atmosphere conducive to the w88 online game’s learning and professional development. Faculty are to commit themselves to impartially evaluate w88 online game performance and avoid discriminating based on irrelevant personal or demographic characteristics (including the w88 online game’s race, sex, age, sexual orientation, religious faith or lack thereof, or national origin).

w88 online game feedback to professors

w88 online game provide feedback on the instructional quality of the program through course evaluations, which are filled out every semester. w88 online game are encouraged to write comments to give specific and detailed feedback to their instructors. Instructional issues that arise during a course should be discussed with the course instructor. A further option would be to talk to the DCT if further discussion could be useful.

Professional development

Professional organizations

w88 online game are encouraged to join professional organizations in psychology and/or in their specialty and to establish at least one membership by the end of the first year. Student membership provides the benefits of regular membership (e.g. journals, newsletters, notices of meetings, reduced registration at meetings). Please consult with faculty, particularly your mentor, for recommendations.

Some professional organizations offer scholarships. Please consult your advisor for any leads that they w88 online game have. Also, consider creating an account on Pivot, which w88 online game allow you to search for grant and scholarship opportunities that are relevant to your research interests.

Professional conferences and workshops

w88 online game are encouraged to attend professional conferences and workshops to supplement the material presented in classes, to become active members of the psychology community, to develop habitual ways of updating and refining knowledge, and to meet other professionals in the field. Attending conferences is a great way to learn about the most recent developments in specific fields of interest, as well as to expand into new interests. There are many conferences locally, as well as nationally.

Presenting research at professional conferences is an excellent way to get feedback from others in the field, to move research to completion, and to become known in broader professional circles. w88 online game typically practice presentations or show early versions of their posters to colleagues in their lab or in the department.

GSA's travel award w88 online game

The GSA provides limited support for graduate student travel to professional conferences. Grants of up to 0 (domestic) or 0 (international) are provided to help w88 online game present papers and posters, participate in panel discussions, and attend conferences, lectures, and seminars that contribute to the enhancement of their programs of study. GSA Travel Grants may be applied to travel expenses only, and not to conference registration or organizational membership fees. You may receive only one travel award per academic year. For more information, please visit the Travel w88 online game program

Other travel awards

Please look out for additional travel awards that are made available by national organizations, the Nevada Psychological Association, and foundations.

w88 online game science speakers/colloquia/job talks/brown bags

Every effort should be made to attend all clinical area, departmental, and university (e.g., School of Medicine) colloquia and presentations. Each year there are several colloquia presented in our department. The clinical area also runs the McReynolds Workshops every year. These colloquia and presentations provide special learning opportunities. Plus, observing others is your best training for learning how to present your own work. It is expected that w88 online game attend all Program Meetings and associated brown bags. If this is not possible, the student should inform the DCT of her/his absence.

Student involvement and input also are encouraged when we are conducting faculty recruitment in the clinical area. w88 online game are expected to attend job talks. In addition, all faculty applicants will have time set aside in their interview schedules to talk, in private, with w88 online game. Following a candidate’s visit, we will ask the student representatives to poll w88 online game as to their opinions, and present the w88 online game’ feedback at a faculty meeting. Formal discussion among faculty, however, and the final vote will be taken without w88 online game present.

Personal therapy

A common way of dealing with personal problems and high levels of stress or sorting out reactions to seeing clients (beyond what is dealt with in supervision) is to enter into therapy as a client oneself. This is not a requirement of our program; however, we do see value in w88 online game’ decisions to experience the treatment relationship as a client if they choose to do so.

Periodically, a database containing clinicians in the state who are willing to see graduate w88 online game, often at a reduced rate, is distributed to all w88 online game. Your work with a clinician would be confidential to the same degree as any other client in psychotherapy. The faculty would have no involvement or contact with your therapist except in the improbable circumstance where such contact would be allowed by law and mandated by duties of care, such as if your therapist had good cause to fear for your immediate safety and felt compelled to contact someone at the University in order to locate you. Such a circumstance would be extremely unlikely, however, and you can and should seek professional care if you feel it is needed or would benefit you, and be confident that such a decision, on balance, would indeed most likely benefit your career.

Personal problems and their interference with w88 online game work

It occasionally happens that personal problems interfere with one’s ability to function as a psychologist. The important issue, however, is how to deal with such problems. In line with Standard 1.13 of the APA Guidelines, it is the student’s responsibility to be alert for and to recognize if personal problems are interfering with effectiveness in clinical work. It is the student’s responsibility to refrain from activities if her/his performance is impaired and patients/colleagues/w88 online game may be harmed. As a trainee, a first step would be to discuss the possible impact of personal problems with a clinical supervisor and/or academic advisor. There are a variety of avenues to explore, including obtaining assistance with personal problems, suspending/postponing training in direct service, or taking a leave of absence from the program. A student can elect to refrain from clinical work for a semester or two but that decision can affect competitiveness for an internship and may require taking on higher clinical load during another year.

We (faculty and w88 online game) collectively share a responsibility to take action if we believe that a student’s personal problems may be harmful to clients. The appropriate action would be to bring concerns to the attention of the trainee whom you believe to be impaired. If that does not result in a corrective response and you still perceive a risk, it would be appropriate to consult with a member of the faculty.

If there is sufficient evidence supporting a w88 online game’s impairment due to an emotional, neuropsychological, or substance abuse condition, the faculty may recommend or require that: (a) the w88 online game take a leave of absence until the w88 online game no longer is impaired or (b) the w88 online game discontinue the program. Examples of behaviors that would elicit a recommendation for a leave from the program include irresponsible or erratic behavior with clients or more generally (e.g., being late for sessions, poor record keeping, flirtatious or belligerent behavior with a client, repeatedly acting in a manner that is detrimental to the client even after receiving supervision about the behavior).

If the plan is for a temporary leave from client-related work or from the program more generally, that decision should be made in consultation between the w88 online game, the faculty advisor, and the DCT. The goal will be to generate a specific plan that includes actions for amelioration or rehabilitation. Returning from the leave will be conditional on demonstrating that the plan has been enacted and has had the intended effect. Prior to taking the leave, the w88 online game’s advisor and the DCT will create a written statement that documents: (a) length and reason for leave; (b) plans for remediation; and (c) how it will be determined that the w88 online game is fit to return; and (d) plans for monitoring the w88 online game after returning.

In compliance with the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the University offers equal access to its degree programs to academically qualified applicants with physical, psychological or learning disabilities. The Disability Resource Center offers excellent support for w88 online game and is dedicated to maintaining an environment that ensures all w88 online game with documented disabilities equal access to its educational programs, activities and facilities. Accommodations are designed to level the playing field for w88 online game with disabilities, while maintaining the integrity and standards of our academic program. For more information, please visit the Disability w88 Center.

Academic integrity

We assume that all members of our clinical area function with the highest regard for academic integrity. The following, however, is provided as a means of avoiding incidents that may reflect unfavorably upon the w88 online game, the program, and the university.

Academic integrity violations are spelled out in detail in the Student w88 online sports betting of Conduct as well as in theAPA Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct.

These include, but are not limited to: (a) fabrication of data; (b) plagiarism; (c) the acquisition of papers or other assignments and representing them as one&w88 online game;s own; and (d) cheating on an examination.

Additional issues that raise questions of academic integrity include: (a) submitting a paper in fulfillment of a class or w88 online game requirement if that paper, or one similar to it, was submitted in fulfillment of any other requirement; and (b) duplicate publication or republishing data. If you are uncertain about the boundaries of these issues, be sure to seek advice and consultation from your w88 online game advisor and other faculty members.

Documentation of w88 online game experiences

The CTC strongly suggests that you make use w88 online game Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards credentials banking service. You can use this service before you are licensed and it w88 online game greatly facilitate the process of moving your license should that be necessary.

Most, but not all states accept APA accreditation as an automatic benchmark for quality doctoral training. You w88 online game wish to consult the ASPPB list of licensure requirements in every state, as well as a similar table that the w88 online game has compiled.

Please keep all course syllabi in the unlikely but possible event that you need to apply to a state in the future that requires you to submit course syllabi for licensure.
