GENERAL INFORMATION

HISTORY

Rosemead Graduate School of Professional Psychology is the outgrowth of the vision and planning of several psychologists and Christian leaders who in the late 1960's saw the need for a school that would train professional psycho­ logists with a Christian commitment. Preliminary efforts to develop such a school began in 1968 when permission was given by the State of California to grant the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees through the Rosemead Graduate School of Psychology. In 1970 Rosemead Graduate School of Psychology inaugurated its full academic program and enrolled its first class of students. The first masters degrees were conferred by Rosemead in September 1972 and its first doctoral degree in June 1974. Rosemead achieved full regional accreditation by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges in February 1976 . It thus became the first free-standing graduate school of professional psychology in the United States to gain region­ al accreditation. In 1977 the decision was made to bring Rosemead' s graduate programs into affiliation with Biola College and to relocate the school on Biola's La Mirada campus. Rosemead's program was renamed Rosemead Graduate School of Professional Psychology, becoming an integral part of Biola College, Inc., a fully accredited liberal arts college with a student body of 3000 students offering 24 undergraduate majors. Graduate degrees are offered in educational administration, marriage and family counseling , and theology. Theology de­ grees (M.A., M.Div., Th.M. and D.Min.) are offered by Talbot Theological Seminary, Biola' s graduate school of theology. In its brief history Rosemead has implemented a professional program in psychology which has achieved academic accreditation and won the increasing respect of the professional and church communities. Rosemead also publishes the Journal of Psychology and Theology a professional journal devoted to exploring the relationships of psychology and theology. Rosemead's purposes are consistent with Biola's overall institutional pur­ poses which include instructing Christian men and women in order to produce graduates who are: (1) competent in their field of study; (2) knowledgeable in Biblical studies; and, (3) earnest Christians equipped to serve the Christian community and society at large. Rosemead's graduates are now found in many settings; including teaching, research, private practice, hospitals , and other clinical agencies. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES Professional Training. Rosemead has two primary objectives. The first is to offer professional training designed to meet the expanding need for clinical psychologists, particularly those who can relate their skills to the Christian

16

community. In response to this need for doctoral education with a professional training emphasis, Rosemead developed a Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) program which places greater emphasis on clinical experience and supervision than the more traditional Ph.D. emphasis upon research training. Rosemead also offers a more traditional Ph.D. program for students contemplating academic or research careers. This program focuses on the development of both research and professional skills. Rosemead also offers a terminal Master of Arts program. This program is similar to the first two years of Rosemead' s doctoral programs and is largely in response to a significant number of requests in recent years from applicants interested only in a masters level program but desiring graduate study with Rosemead's distinctive emphases. Graduates of this program are equipped to function under supervision as psychological assistants or, to proceed with further training on the doctoral level. Since the doctorate is the recognized degree of entry into the field of clinical psychology, employment opportunities at the master's level are much more limited than for doctoral graduates. Rosemead attempts to provide all students with the necessary tools for a broad understanding of human behavior. Having this foundation, students can then focus on either the direct application of psychological facts and theories to the pressing problems of man, or on the development and dissemination of new knowledge through research and academic pursuits. The achievement of these objectives requires the following: (1) knowledge and understanding of the content, theory, and methodological procedures of psychology as a science; (2) a basic grounding in theology, and specific knowledge of the Christian theolog­ ical view of man; (3) personal sensitivity and effective interpersonal skills; (4) specialized knowledge of personality development and functioning, including healthy as well as pathological methods of adaptation; (5) ability to diagnose the effectiveness of emotional and intellectual adjustment and to utilize appropriate therapeutic techniques to alter maladaptive functioning; (6) com­ petence in the evaluation and/or execution of psychological research; and (7) awareness of professional and ethical issues and standards in appropriate fields of research, theory, and practice. Rosemead's graduate programs are designed to balance formal course in­ struction with small seminars, case observation, and individually supervised clinical and research experience. Masters level students participate in group therapy, while in addition doctoral students receive individual psychotherapy from a therapist of their choice. Throughout the program Rosemead empha­ sizes the growth of the student - both personally and professionally. Integration of Psychology and Theology. The second of Rosemead's two principal objectives is the integration of psychology and Christianity, an integration which takes place within the context of a Christian view of the world and of life. Psychology and Christianity share a number of common concerns. There are mutual goals, such as human health, maturity, and whole­ ness. There are mutual principles, such as learning the importance of develop­ ment and the interrelationship of self and others. And, there are mutual therapeutic values, such as insight, responsibility, integrity, interpersonal

17

trust, and empathic understanding. Integration is the discovery of the rela­ tionship which exists between biblical data and the facts and principles of psychology. While recognizing that the disciplines of psychology and theology have some unique elements and differing methodologies, Rosemead is com­ mitted to an effective interface between these disciplines. Rosemead believes that such integrative study in areas of mutual concerns can serve the dual purpose of providing future psychologists with a fuller view of man, and awakening of the Church to the potentially significant contribution of psychol­ ogy in its role of ministering to the whole person. PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL GROWTH At the heart of an effective training program in Professional Psychology is the opportunity to develop the personal insights and skills necessary for empathic and effective interaction in a wide range of settings. In order to meet this need, Rosemead has developed a planned sequence of experiences de­ signed to promote personal growth and competency in interpersonal relations. Beginning in their first year of study students participate in a variety of activities designed to promote professional awareness and personal growth. These activities include active training in basic empathy skills and a preprac­ ticum experience. The prepracticum course consists of exercises to assess and facilitate interpersonal skills, and the initial opportunity for the student to work with a volunteer college client in the professional helping role. During the second year all students participate in group training therapy. As group members, students personally experience some of the growth producing aspects of group counseling. In addition to group therapy, students begin their formal practicum. Students are placed in such professional facilities as outpa­ tient clinics, hospitals, college counseling centers, public schools, and com­ munity health organizations on the basis of their individual readiness, needs, and interests. These practicum experiences are individually supervised by Rosemead's full-time faculty and qualified professionals working in the prac­ ticum agency. During the third year most doctoral students begin their individual training therapy. This therapy is designed to give the student first-hand experience in the role of a client and is considered an opportunity for both personal growth and for the learning of therapeutic principles and techniques. Between 50 and 200 hours of individual training are required. Such issues as timing, choice of therapist, and specific goals are determined by the student in conjunction with his advisor and the Professional Training Committee. Students are referred to the Didactic Therapy Guidelines for further details. When a doctoral student reaches his fourth year most of his time is spent in independent study, electives, and practicum experiences. The step-by-step progression in professional training experiences gives the student personal experience with a wide range of personalities in a variety of settings. It is intended to provide the necessary preparation to serve as a basis for a full-time internship during the fifth year of study. 18

The internship is planned as an intensive clinical experience where the student may integrate the varied elements of his preparation in psychology into a congruent professional role. For most students the primary internship objec­ tive is experience and supervision in ongoing counseling and psychotherapeu­ tic procedures. All internships must be faculty approved in order to insure a high level of professional growth experience for the student. Listed below are off-campus professional agencies where Rosemead stu­ dents have recently received supervised clinical experience in practicum and internships . Placement in these agencies is made by the Director of Clinical Training. In addition to these agencies, all students receive professional super­ vision by Rosemead's clinical faculty. Practicum assignments are in accord with the student's developmental needs and interests . Internships are obtained by the student consonant with the Internship Guidelines of the school. 19

THE JOURNALOF PSYCHOLOGYAND THEOLOGY Rosemead founded and continues to publish the Journal ofPsychology and Theology. The Journal's purpose is to communicate to the professional com­ munity recent scholarly thinking on the interrelationships of psychological and theological concepts, and to consider the application of these concepts to a variety of professional settings. As an evangelical forum for integration, each quarterly issue presents articles which speak to 1) the integration of psychology and theology from both theoretical and applied perspectives; 2) research relevant to theology, the ministry of the church or the integration of psychology and theology; 3) the relations of psychological data to the work of the minister and pastoral counselor; 4) and theory, research, and applied concerns relating to the family and interpersonal relationships within the Christian community. Each issue also provides reactions to current or past journal articles and reviews of recent books from the fields of psychology and theology. Contributions to the Journal are sought from a wide range of persons interested in the process of integration. It affords Rosemead students a unique opportunity to publish articles of an integrative nature developed in the course of their studies. RESEARCH AT ROSEMEAD Research is an integral part of Rosemead's overall program. Though the main thrust of our program is training professional helpers, such training must be firmly grounded in the science of psychology. The Ph.D. program has a strong emphasis on research with a program of academic and practical training culminating in the student's experimental dissertation. The practical research experience involves 300 hours of research activity under the supervision of a faculty advisor during the first three years of the program. During this time the student gains experience in reviewing literature, conceptualizing problems, implementing research procedures, analyzing data, and writing reports. The main goal of the 300 hours of research is for the student to publish with his advisor at least one research paper which will serve as the foundation for the student's independent dissertation research project. The Psy. D. program emphasizes the practical application of research re­ sults. Through course work and practice the student is given experiences which stress the need for scientific knowledge in professional practice. The focus of the Psy.D. dissertation is the conceptualization and resolution of a problem of relevance to professional psychology. It is intended that the problem chosen will grow out of the student's professional interests as he/she proceeds through the program. Current faculty research interest includes the psychology of sex roles, religious behavior, marriage and the family, religious development, therapy process and outcomes, minorities issues and personality theory. Computer facilities for research are available on campus utilizing a Hewlett Packard 3000 with 384K bytes of core memory and off campus using the IBM

21

370/158-3 with 5 ,000K bytes of core at the University of Southern California. Rosemead has its own computer terminal, a GE Terminet 30 with dual magne­ tic cassettes and a 132 character printer, which can be used to access the HP 3000 or the IBM, 370/158-3 for time sharing or remote job entry batch processing. A variety of statistical packages are available including the Statis­ tical Package for the Social Sciences and the Bio-Medical Computer Programs - Series P. Compilers for both Basic and Fortran IV programming languages are also available.

STUDENT AFFAIRS

As a graduate program of Biota College, Inc., Rosemead enjoys the benefits of services and activities provided by the office of the Dean of Student Affairs of the College . In addition, certain services and activities designed to meet the unique needs of Rosemead students are overseen by Rosemead ' s Coordinator of Student Affairs. The Associated Students of RGSPP is the organization of student govern­ ment of which all Rosemead students are members. The aim of the organization is to provide leadership for Rosemead student activities and to participate through committee representation in the overall governance of the Professional School. In addition to Associated Students' own standing committees , student representatives are elected as voting members to each of the Faculty commit­ tees. In addition to opportunities to participate in regular chapels and devotional activities of both Biota College and Talbot Theological Seminary, Rosemead has its own weekly chapel service under the direction of the student Spiritual Life Committee . This hour is planned to speak to the distinct needs and characteristics of the Rosemead community . Special activities for Rosemead students are planned in conjunction with the annual Torrey Memorial Bible Conference sponsored by the College. Activities designed to meet the specific interests and needs of single stu­ dents, married couples and student spouses are sponsored by the Coordinator of Student Affairs. The Coordinator also works with those who are in need of professional services for themselves or their spouse. Whatever concerns may develop in the area of discipline are handled within Rosemead employing grievance procedures based on biblical guidelines de­ veloped and adopted by the Rosemead community as a whole .

FINANCIAL INFORMATION 29

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Before applying, applicants should make realistic assessment of their re­ sources for financing graduate study in view of Rosemead's tuition and fee schedule and the cost of living in Southern California . Rosemead cannot provide guarantee of financial assistance for entering students . The first two years of graduate study are typically the most difficult finan­ cially. Many students find it necessary to supplement their resources with outside employment. However , the school discourages a heavy reliance upon employment during the academic year, or any other time commitment that is detrimental to the program of study . Students enrolled in degree programs must maintain full-time status in the program . Although a limited number of teaching assistantships are available , these positions are invariably awarded to continuing students and should not be anticipated by new students. Traditionally many Rosemead students have relied on Federally Insured Student Loans (FISL) obtained through a bank in their home community as their primary resource for financial assistance throughout the program . Stu­ dents accepted for graduate study and who expect to utilize Federally Insured Student Loans should plan to make application early in order to secure approval of their loans before the opening of the fall semester. Other financial aid currently available to Rosemead students includes the following : 1. National Direct Student Loan available through Biola College, but in limited amounts due to the size of the school and the demand on these funds. Requires a financial statement (FAF) and eligibility application. 2. California State Graduate Fellowship -Available to state residents only; requires a financial statement, eligibility application , and GRE or other appropriate test scores. 3. RGSPP Assistantships - Available to selected second year students and above; eligibility requirements and use of funds is established through Rosemead faculty committees . 4. Short-term loans - Available through Biola College, office of Student Financial Services, for emergency needs. These loans have a short-term repayment provision and are not used for tuition or automobile expenses. 5. Graduate Grants - Available in limited amounts to students who demons­ trate a financial need; requires an FAF and Graduate Aid Application. Preference is given to 3rd and 4th year students. 6. Minority Fellowships - two available to qualified students on the basis of need . Requires a Financial Statement (FAF) and Graduate Aid Application . International applicants must establish the degree of their ability to meet the costs of an education at Rosemead. Each international applicant must submit a 30
