Scope and Contents
The
Joint Doctoral Program in Clinical Psychology (SDSU/UCSD) Records (1959-2007) document the creation and development of the clinical psychology joint doctoral degree program. The collection
also includes materials relating to the formation of the Child Abuse Interdisciplinary Training Program of San Diego, technical
reports by Dr. Alan Litrownik and his colleagues, and a small collection of SDSU Department of Psychology materials. While
some materials date as early as 1959 and as late as 2007, the bulk of the collection spans 1974 to 1995. The collection includes
reports, meeting minutes, proposals, thesis abstracts, grant applications, correspondence, syllabi, and promotional materials.
Arranged alphabetically, this collection is divided into five series:
Joint Doctoral Program Files (1959-2007),
Child Abuse Interdisciplinary Training Program Files (1986-1997),
Research Studies and Reports (1978-2006),
SDSU Department of Psychology Files (1962-1992), and
Psychology Publications (1967-1989).
The
Joint Doctoral Program Files contain planning and development documents, including materials from the Joint Doctoral Steering Committee, the Curriculum
Committee, and the Graduate Student Selection Committee. The series also contains materials from a variety of clinical psychology
programs offered at other academic institutions, gathered as models for developing the program at SDSU/UCSD. Highlights of
the collection include various drafts and revisions of the joint doctoral proposal, as well as the history of the development
of the program, which offers a chronology of the milestones during its eleven years in development. Also prominent in the
series are thesis oral defenses, spanning thirty years, which contain abstracts of student thesis topics.
The
Child Abuse Interdisciplinary Training Program Files document the various stages in the development of interdisciplinary training programs focused on child maltreatment. The
bulk of the series is comprised of materials from two separate federally funded grants: the
Child Abuse Interdisciplinary Training Program of San Diego and the
San Diego Interdisciplinary Child Welfare Training (ICWT) Project. The former grant was originally awarded to ten universities around the country, and the collection includes grantee meeting
minutes as well as materials from all ten grantee projects.
The
Research Studies and Reports series includes reports on a variety of research studies, primarily centered on child maltreatment. Prominent in this series
are records from the consortium for Longitudinal Studies in Child Abuse and Neglect (LONGSCAN), a multi-site 20-year longitudinal
research study.
The bulk of the
SDSU Department of Psychology Files correlate with Dr. Alan Litrownik's tenure as Chair of Department of Psychology, from 1981 through 1986. The series includes
department meeting minutes and bulletins, as well as Litrownik's correspondence with alumni from the Joint Doctoral Program
in Clinical Psychology. The series also includes the early development of the clinical training model adopted by the department,
including proposals and meeting minutes which date from 1962.
The
Psychology Publications series consists of two folders. One folder includes the first two issues of the American Psychological Society newsletter,
published in 1988 and 1989, and the other folder contains the charter issue of
Psychology Today magazine, published in 1967.

Historical Note
Plans for a SDSU/UCSD Joint Doctoral Program (JDP) in Clinical Psychology first began to germinate in March of 1978, when
a meeting between representatives of the two universities resulted in shared interest in its development. In June 1979, a
proposal was drafted for a joint doctoral program, "A Ph.D. in Social Work" between UCSD and SDSU's School of Social Work,
in collaboration with SDSU's Department of Psychology.
A few months later in 1979, the School of Social Work withdrew from negotiations, citing lack of "the proper faculty foundation"
for a doctoral program in social work. In October 1980, a preliminary proposal circulated for a joint doctorate between the
Department of Psychology at SDSU and the UCSD Department of Psychiatry.
The program continued to take shape for five more years, with numerous committee meetings, proposal drafts, and negotiations.
In July of 1985, Governor Deukmejian signed a budget bill to fund the joint SDSU/UCSD doctoral program in clinical psychology.
One key figure in the development of the JDP in clinical psychology was Dr. Alan Litrownik, who served as co-chair of the
Proposal Committee from 1981-1985, chair of the Department of Psychology from 1981-1986, and chair of the Joint Doctoral Steering
Committee from 1985-1987.
Dr. Litrownik focused much of his teaching and scholarly efforts on the social phenomenon of child maltreatment. These effort
included participation as Co-Principal Investigator on two federally funded (Department of Health and Human Services) interdisciplinary
training programs, and as Principal Investigator on a federally funded (Office of Child Abuse and Neglect, National Institute
of Child Health and Human Development) multi-site 20-year longitudinal research study (LONGSCAN).
The JDP was first accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA) in 1990, and has been reaccredited consistently
since then. From its inception, the joint doctoral program has adopted the scientist-practitioner ("Boulder") model, which
requires students to receive ongoing supervised clinical and research experience.
The Joint Doctoral Program entered into its 30
th year in 2015, and continues in its goal to provide training and education to scientifically oriented research professionals,
who will subsequently make significant contributions to the field of clinical psychology in their areas of specialization.
