Abstract

Objective: While previous survey research has focused on various training constituencies such as trainees, and postdoctoral/internship supervisors, no previous survey research has examined the needs and perspectives of practicum level supervisors and training programs. This study was designed to address this limitation. These results were used in forming the North American Association of Practicum Sites in Neuropsychology (NAPSN). Method: A 41-item survey was developed and distributed to practicum supervisors across the United States and Canada via listserv. A total of 142 supervisors completed the survey; the majority were employed at academic medical centers (62%) and located in the U.S. (93%). Most participants evaluated adults (61%), while a minority evaluated children (27%), or patients across the lifespan (12%). Results: Most respondents supervise one (44%) or two (26%) students per year and prefer advanced trainees (>90%). The majority (78%) indicated students see one case per week. The number of clinical contact hours and reports varied based on location (U.S. vs. Canada) and population (adult vs. pediatric). Supervisors found professional papers and publicly available didactics to be the most helpful resources. Commonly endorsed needs included help with policies and procedures (53%), supervising trainees from underrepresented groups (49%) and nontraditional backgrounds (44%), and access to didactics (49%). Conclusions: The survey provided insights into current practices and the needs of practicum supervisors. These findings will inform NAPSN's development of materials and policies to support trainees and supervisors and can guide other professionals in supporting their practicum trainees as they navigate training in neuropsychology.

临床神经心理学实习培训实践调查。
目的:以往的调查研究主要针对不同的培训对象,如受训人员、博士后/实习生导师,但还没有调查研究对实习生导师和培训项目的需求和观点进行研究。本研究旨在解决这一局限性。这些结果被用于成立北美神经心理学实习基地协会(NAPSN)。调查方法:编制了一份包含 41 个项目的调查表,并通过列表服务器分发给美国和加拿大的实习督导。共有 142 名督导完成了调查;其中大多数受雇于学术医疗中心(62%),且位于美国(93%)。大多数参与者评估的是成人(61%),少数评估的是儿童(27%)或整个生命周期的病人(12%)。结果:大多数受访者每年指导一名(44%)或两名(26%)学生,他们更喜欢高级学员(超过 90%)。大多数受访者(78%)表示学生每周看一个病例。临床接触时数和报告数量因地点(美国与加拿大)和人群(成人与儿科)而异。督导发现,专业论文和公开的教学资料是最有帮助的资源。普遍认可的需求包括政策和程序方面的帮助(53%)、对来自代表性不足群体(49%)和非传统背景(44%)的受训人员的督导,以及获取教学资料(49%)。结论:调查深入了解了实习督导的现行做法和需求。这些调查结果将为 NAPSN 制定支持实习生和督导的材料和政策提供参考,并可指导其他专业人员在实习生接受神经心理学培训时为其提供支持。

期刊介绍: The Clinical Neuropsychologist (TCN) serves as the premier forum for (1) state-of-the-art clinically-relevant scientific research, (2) in-depth professional discussions of matters germane to evidence-based practice, and (3) clinical case studies in neuropsychology. Of particular interest are papers that can make definitive statements about a given topic (thereby having implications for the standards of clinical practice) and those with the potential to expand today’s clinical frontiers. Research on all age groups, and on both clinical and normal populations, is considered.
