(programma)
The 48 hours of lectures will encompass the clinical aspects of clinical psychology and will be centered on the know-ledge of classification, research methods, normal and abnormal psychology. It will be deepen the first interview of pa-tient with a male/female/couple’s psycho-clinical dysfunction, the basic concepts of a clinical and psychological as-sessment oriented in the formulation of the basic and evolved elements of the treatments in clinical psychology. The student is requested to have enough knowledge to understand the clinical features of the disorders, planning the treat-ment.
In the laboratory session, will be analyzed the psychometric instrument useful for diagnosis, and specifical-ly the MMPI-2 and the MMPI-2-RF.
Important note
Pop quizzes will be given throughout the lessons. The quizzes will cover the assigned reading(s) for that particular class day. Why would I do this to you? Research (Roediger et al., 2006) suggests that students who take quizzes learn more than students who simply study the material over and over again. Also, I don’t post the full slides. Why would I make you write so much? Research (Chi, 2009) shows that active note taking leads to better student outcomes than passive observing. You should take your own notes rather than relying on notes from someone else!
