Clinical Psychology: Definition “The field of Clinical Psychology involves research, teaching, and services relevant to the applications of principles, methods, and procedures for understanding, predicting, and alleviating intellectual, emotional, biological, psychological, social and behavioral maladjustment, disability and discomfort, applied to a wide range of client populations” (APA; Division 12).

Research and teaching Most likely need a Ph.D. in clinical psychology Nearly every Ph.D. in other areas of psychology (e.g., Developmental, Aging Studies, Social, Neuroscience) will allow expertise in research and teaching, but they do not typically provide training in clinical service. Job settings include universities, colleges, teaching hospitals, research centers, etc.
