CCAP临床儿童和青少年心理学（CCAP）计划（以前称为CP：ADE）专注于在家庭背景下经历心理疾病的儿童和青少年的发展道路
The CCAP Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology (CCAP) Program focuses upon the developmental paths of children and youth experiencing psychological disorders within the contexts of family, school and community.<br>Attention is directed to several features including the social, emotional, cognitive, and neurobiological features of normal and atypical development, risk and protective factors that influence the course of development, the developmental impact of stressful life events, and developmental approaches to assessment, psychodiagnosis and therapeutic intervention.<br>Training follows a scientist-practitioner model in which an integrated series of courses and practica at the MA and PhD levels collectively contributes to the acquisition of competence as both child clinicians and researchers. Students take on cases in our on-campus clinic, the Centre for Psychological Training, and complete off-campus practica in hospitals, mental health settings and schools under the supervision of registered psychologists. In this way, students receive training to allow them to enter careers involving clinical and/or research positions in mental health centres, hospitals, schools, and the private sector, as well as careers involving teaching and research in university settings.<br><br>This training also prepares students to apply for registration as psychologists with provincial licensing boards. Our Ph.D. graduates have assumed careers in universities, hospitals, private practice, and school boards.<br>Faculty in CCAP pursue a wide variety of research including parent-child relational processes, shyness, adolescent relationships and dating, antisocial behaviour, autism and pervasive developmental disorders, injury prevention in children, pediatric pain, parental stress, attachment, moral psychology, stress and coping in children, eating disorders, adolescent heath risk behaviors, parental trauma history and symptoms, acquisition of literacy skills, learning disability, and developmental reading disorders.
