Learning unit contents
The purpose of this course is to think about clinical implications that can be drawn from current scientific literature in the fiel of psychology of aging (Assessment, clinical issues, therapeutic approaches).
The selected topics may change from one year to another, depending on articles recently published in the literature. The course also allows to deepen certain topics that were only superficially approached in previous classes.
Finally, some themes are chosen for their relevance of being addressed at the end of the student training course (notably because they can benefit from the experience gained during their training course).
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The aim of this course is not only to complete the students' knowledge on clinical psychology of aging, but also enable them to acquire a distanced and critical view of researches in particular linking research and clinic. The student must be able to question the way he "manages" certain clinical situations.
