The Clinical Vignette Study Course focuses on practical, clinical application of the factual information that you mastered in preparing for the Standard Written Examination. This course addresses the higher cognitive functions that inform your clinical judgment. Clinical sequences of actions are discussed and prioritized. The first segment of the course provides a framework for the requirements of the examination, BBS tasks and knowledge statements, and delineates the nature of questions that you will encounter. The second part of the course gives you clinical vignette practice in each of the content areas, with special emphasis on Treatment Planning and Treatment, as you are required to have information about the following theories: Psychodynamic, Humanistic/Existential, Systems, Cognitive Behavioral, and Postmodern.
