Committee on Training in Clinical Psychology ( CTCP )

Abstract

Abstract The 1947 Committee on Training in Clinical Psychology (CTCP), chaired by David Shakow (1901–81), was the most important committee of its day because its report provided the framework for the 1949 Boulder Conference and its scientist‐practitioner model for training clinical psychologists. It was at this time, after World War II, that the federal government began to support clinical psychology training in a very big way. The CTCP agreed on three main points: that clinical psychology training required a doctoral degree, that a 1‐year, full‐time internship was necessary, and that the scope of the field included diagnosis, treatment, and research.
