Difference between Clinical Psychology & Applied Psychology
What is the difference between Clinical Psychology & Applied Psychology??? Applied Psychology is using knowledge that's already been discovered to further that knowledge and a clinical Psychologist will run experiments to discover knowledge. So basically, without clinical Psychology, we wouldn't have applied Psychology. Applied Psychology-- -The basic premise of Applied Psychology is the use of psychological principles and theories to overcome practical problems in other fields, such as business management, product design, ergonomics, nutrition, law and clinical medicine. -Applied psychology includes the areas of industrial/organizational psychology, human factors, forensic psychology, engineering psychology, as well as many other areas such as educational psychology, sports psychology and community psychology. Clinical Psychology --- - It is the application of psychology in a clinical setting, including researching and treating psychological distress, dysfunction or disorder. In many countries it is a regulated mental health profession -Practitioners of clinical psychology can work with individuals, couples, children, adults, families and with small groups. -They may work in psychiatric hospitals, general practice, psychological clinics, or academic centers. -They may work individually in private practice or in multi-disciplinary teams involving other professions, commonly with licensed psychologists, social workers, psychiatric nurses and psychiatrists. -They themselves may be a licensed psychologist, a social worker, a therapist, a counselor, a psychiatric nurse or a psychiatrist.
