Exam 2: Research Training: Joys and Challenges

In the context of common student reactions, the false dichotomous conceptualization of science versus practice helps students to be better equipped for the counseling profession.

Critical thinking skills, one of the hallmarks of graduate work in counseling, refer to:

In evidence-based practice in psychology (EBPP), in addition to client characteristics, it is also important to consider the client's values, religious beliefs, worldviews, goals, and treatment preferences when determining the best available treatment for the client.

Belief in the utility of research is a critically important factor in the process of becoming a competent researcher.

According to Kahn (2001), which of the following factors is directly associated with scholarly activity of students?

Which of the following is true of the scientist-practitioner model of training in counseling?

Statistically, the nine components of the research training environment that are operationalized by the Research Training Environment Scale (RTES), and its revision, (RTES-R) can be reduced to just two factors: instructional dimension and interpersonal dimension.

A qualitative study conducted by Schlosser et al. (2003) to analyze the satisfaction among graduate students about their relationships with their respective advisors showed that:

The clinical science model is similar to the scientist-practitioner model in theory, but places even more emphasis on science.

In its ideal form, the scientist-practitioner model has a _____ split of performing science and practice activities.

According to Kahn (2001), the relationship of a student with his or her mentor is significantly associated with his or her scholarly activity through research self-efficacy.

In the context of positive training environment for research, counseling students should be encouraged to utilize qualitative methods of research over quantitative methods.

Gelso and Fretz (2001) proposed a three-level model of how research functions for counselors. Identify the third level in this model.

Research self-efficacy is defined as:

The importance of science in the psychology field has experienced a steep decline over the past few decades.

There is a lack of objective evidence to conclude that research has enhanced the practice of counseling.

Identify a factor that was included in the short version of the revised Research Training Environment Scale (RTES-R) by Kahn and Miller (2000).

Clinicians and researchers can sometimes fall prey to the error of concluding that a treatment worked when the evidence for this inference is insufficient. According to Carl Rogers, this refers to:
