人类服务心理学哲学博士

“人类服务心理学”计划由三个相互关联且相互补充的计划组成，它们提供有关临床心理学，行为医学和社区心理学的教育和培训。于1983年启动的“人类服务心理学计划”代表着对临床心理学和几个相关专业的重新概念化。该计划的基本原理是从一般系统理论的角度出发的，该观点侧重于这些专业所汲取的知识和技能的一般性质以及所涉及问题的多维性质。我们认为，这种方法为研究和专业实践提供了更全面和综合的方法。与大多数传统的单专业培训计划相比，它还代表了一种更具成本效益和灵活方式的专业培训，因为它使我们能够在单个计划的框架内提供许多专业
The Human Services Psychology program is composed of three interrelated and complementary programs which provide education and training in clinical psychology, behavioral medicine, and community psychology. Initiated in 1983, the Human Services Psychology Program represents a reconceptualization of clinical psychology and several related specialties. The program's rationale derives from a general systems theory perspective which focuses on the generic nature of the knowledge and skills upon which these specialties draw and the multidimensional nature of the problems with which they are concerned. We believe that this approach fosters a more comprehensive and integrative approach to both research and professional practice. It also represents a more cost-effective and flexible approach to professional training than most traditional single-specialty professional training programs since it allows us to provide training for a number of specialties within the framework of a single program. Human Services Psychology is defined as that sector of professional psychology concerned with the promotion of human well-being through the acquisition and application of psychological knowledge and principles concerned with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of psychological and physical disorders. Thus, the program is designed to prepare students to contribute to the growth of knowledge in this area, as well as to apply this knowledge to a broad range of human problems. Consequently, the program is based on a scientist-practitioner model of training which aims to provide students with skills as both researchers and practitioners.
