The Florida Psychological Association (FPA) student research competition took place July 9 – 12 at the Ritz Carleton, Palm Beach as part of FPA's annual convention. The competition offered graduate students an opportunity to present and discuss their research findings with psychologists across the state of Florida. Posters were judged on coverage and clarity and required that researched be based on culled empirical data. Students from Florida State University, University of Florida, Hobart and William Smith College, Touro College South, and Nova Southeastern University were all represented in the poster competition. Three monetary awards were presented to the student winners.
The first-place winner was KC Collins, a second-year doctoral student in clinical psychology at the Center for Psychological Studies (CPS), who presented Personal Psychotherapy during Graduate Clinical Training: An Initial Investigation. Ms. Collins’ research explores the impact of graduate training in clinical psychology on students’ perspectives, pursuit, and experiences of personal psychotherapy. Her research will investigate whether doctoral-level psychology students have considered engaging in or have participated in psychotherapy, and whether they consider it to be an essential component of professional development.
CPS students also represented by research on Domestic Violence in Deaf and Hard of Hearing Females: Domestic Violence and Perceptions of Social Support in Dead and Hard of Hearing Women (M. Levi-Minzi, P. Johnston-McCabe, Ph.D., and V. Van Hasselt, Ph.D.), and Pharmacotherapy and Behavioral Therapy in the Treatment of Combat-Related Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C. Supervielle, J. Kibler, Ph.D., and C. Marker, Ph.D.).
