Even as psychology becomes increasingly splintered and specialized,
as evi denced by the growing number of special interest divisions
of the American Psy chological Association, many psychologists are
devoting their energies to finding commonalities between
traditionally distinct fields and building bridges between them.
Developmental psychopathology, for example, has emerged as a
synthesis of child development theory and clinical child
psychology. Health psychology has resulted from the cooperation and
collaboration of many psychologists from a number of fields,
including clinical, counseling, social, developmental, and
physiological. Within clinical psychology is a growing movement
toward "rap prochement" that is dedicated to finding common themes
among seemingly dis parate approaches to psychotherapy. Thus,
integration among different fields has increased even as diversity
in psychology has flourished. One such integration or interfacing
effort that is related in several ways to the integrative efforts
just noted involves social, clinical, and counseling psychology.
Although this effort is not a new one (see chapter 1), it was given
a new lease on life by the publication of the first issue ofthe
Journal of Social and Clinical Psy chology in 1983. Since that
time, several volumes and numerous journal article and book
chapters have been devoted to the general notion that social
psychologi cal theory and research has much to offer clinical and
counseling psychology, such as greater understanding of
psychological and everyday problems in living and insight into
clinical and counseling activities such as psychotherapy."
