Are you a graduate student in an applied psychology, mental health, or education program? Are you learning to apply your field's theories and methods in practice while anticipating conducting a final research or scholarly project? Or are you a faculty member advising, mentoring, and chairing dissertations or theses? This guide is for you.Navigating the research process in an applied graduate program can be exciting but also daunting. For students, this book will guide you through the nuts and bolts of identifying research interests, developing a project topic, writing and managing a project, as well as the various interpersonal and academic skills necessary to successfully complete such a project. Based on a well-recognized national competency model developed by the National Council of Schools of Professional Psychology (NCSPP), this guide will teach you the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to navigate research at three stages of graduate school: familiarizing yourself with research and scholarly work, developing a proposal and managing a project, and finishing your final project and beyond. It will also advise on ways you can foster successful mentoring relationships and work collaboratively in applied settings.Worksheets, visual aids, and checklists are provided throughout to highlight factors to consider at each stage and help you plan work and time, self-evaluating and improving research, and troubleshooting obstacles. Student examples are included to illustrate real experiences of conducting research in an applied program. Using this book throughout graduate school will help you experience your final project as an exciting capstone to your academic career. Recommendations for how faculty can use this guide in research related courses, advising, and mentoring are also provided.

Deliberate practice exercises provide trainees and students an opportunity to build competence in essential behavioral parent training skills while developing their own personal therapeutic style.These exercises present role-playing scenarios in which two trainees act as a client and a clinician, switching back and forth under the guidance of a supervisor. The clinician improvises appropriate and authentic responses to client statements organized into three difficulty levels—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—that reflect common client questions and concerns.Trainees will learn how to collaborate with parents to help them build positive relationships with their children as a foundation for creating behavioral change. They will learn how to teach parenting skills like praise to encourage positive behaviors, planned ignoring, establishing consequences that are respectful and developmentally appropriate, and strategies for parents to manage their own strong emotions.Step-by-step instructions guide participants through the exercises, identify criteria for mastering each skill, and explain how to monitor and adjust difficulty. Guidelines to help trainers and trainees get the most out of training are also provided.
