A sample of mental health professionals listed in the National Register of Health Service Providers in Psychology was surveyed to examine attitudes with regard to the generalizability of findings from clinical judgment research, general beliefs and practices about clinical judgment, and knowledge of scholarly articles and books in the clinical judgment literature. Of the participants, 98.1% were doctoral-level psychologists engaged in clinical practice. Results suggested that participants consistently agreed that tasks used in studies of clinical judgment were not representative of the types of activities performed in their clinical practice. Respondents believed that the study of clinical judgment was important and that research could have meaningful implications for their clinical practice. Participants' knowledge of the judgment literature was significantly lower than expected. |
