School psychology at the University of Utah.

“…The School Psychology Program at the University of Utah is different from most of the programs that have been presented in this series. The excellent programs reviewed previously have been major school psychology programs with extensive histories and impressive reputations (Kratochwill, Gettinger, Reynolds, & Doll, 1988; Lambert, 1986; Nagle, 1986; Phillips, 1986; Pryzwansky, Brantley, Wasik, Schulte, & Simeonsson, 1989; Trachtman, 1987). The University of Utah program is a relatively small program by comparison to these programs and has recent origins.…”
