Evolving Internship Issues in School Psychology Preparation
Phelps, LeAdelle; Swerdlik, Mark E.
Psychology in the Schools, v48 n9 p911-921 Nov 2011
Current issues relevant to school psychology internships are reviewed. The movement toward professional competencies and behavioral benchmarks as they relate to school psychology internships is discussed, with a concentration on American Psychological Association and National Association of School Psychologists standards. Given the emphasis on observable outcomes and assessment of competencies, implications specific to the internship year at both the specialist and doctoral levels are considered. (Contains 1 table.)
