Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

Cognitive Dissonance

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Area of Science:

  • Child Psychology
  • Social Work Training
  • Internship Programs

Background:

  • Graduate students require specialized training for effective work in child welfare.
  • Internship programs are crucial for developing competent professionals in prevention services.
  • Existing training models may not fully address the unique needs of interns in foster care settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and evaluate a graduate student internship program for a child abuse prevention program.
  • To assess the effectiveness of a structured approach to intern recruitment, supervision, and training.
  • To determine if a supportive agency culture and didactic program enhance intern experience.

Main Methods:

  • Anonymous surveys administered to 102 interns over a 9-year period.
  • Evaluation of internship components including recruitment, supervision, agency culture, orientation, and didactic program.
  • Analysis of intern feedback on their overall experience.

Main Results:

  • Internship programs with strong recruitment, supervision, and supportive culture yield positive experiences.
  • Structured orientation and ongoing didactic programs contribute to intern satisfaction.
  • Longitudinal data over 9 years indicate consistent positive outcomes for the described internship model.

Conclusions:

  • A well-structured internship program is vital for training graduate students in child welfare.
  • Recommendations are provided for developing effective internship training sites in prevention programs.
  • The findings support the model's success in fostering positive and beneficial intern experiences.
