title: A model and method for "making" a Combined-Integrated psychologist: equilintegration (EI) theory and the beliefs, events, and values inventory (BEVI).
abstract: Although the Consensus Conference on Combined and Integrated Doctoral Training in Psychology (e.g., Bailey, 2003) generated much content of relevance to the structure and commitments of Combined-Integrated (C-I) programs, faculty, and students-and Competencies 2002: Future Directions in Education and Credentialing in Professional Psychology (www.appic.org) developed language and guidelines regarding the knowledge areas, skills, and values that students in professional psychology programs should acquire and demonstrate-specific models and methods are necessary to translate these professional guidelines and aspirations into reality. This article offers one such model, Equilintegration (EI) Theory, and method, the Beliefs, Events, and Values Inventory (BEVI), that can be used by faculty, training staff, supervisors, and students in C-I programs to operationalize, assess, and cultivate basic values of education and training from a C-I perspective (e.g., self-awareness, self-assessment, and self-reflection). In addition to this model and method, relevant background information, theory, and research are presented along with attendant implications, hypotheses, and principles.
