Abstract:
Experienced supervisors of trainee clinical psychologists used 24 scales to rate four concepts: 'your stereotype of a good trainee'; "a good trainee well known to you'; 'a bad trainee well known to you'; and 'your stereotype of a bad trainee'. Similar ratings were given for both the good trainee concepts, which were rated differently from both the bad concepts, which were also rated differently from each other. Factor analysis revealed that the supervisor's judgements fell across two interpretable dimensions.
