Abstract:
This article conducts a secondary analysis of combined survey data collected from clinical and counselling psychologists in South Africa with a view to contributing to the debate about their respective Scope of Practice. A comparison of clinical and counselling psychologists’ activities, where and how they are doing these activities and with what emphasis, as well as the similarities and differences between these categories with respect to demographic variables of their practitioners, values and career satisfaction, and views of their respective Scopes of Practice should provide guidance for t

Abstract:
Clinical supervision is fundamental to the training and development of professional psychologists; however, no clear supervision methods have been developed, and the ideal competencies for psychologists and supervisors are yet to be defined. This lack of consensus is aggravated in the field of clinical neuropsychology supervision due to the dearth of literature available, which has an impact not only in the supervisory activities and the training of new professionals, but also ultimately in the quality of service provided to people that in many cases could be considered to be a vulnerable popu

Abstract:
Inadequate investment in mental health care by the governments of both high- and low-income countries contributes to recurrent challenges of uneven distribution of and access to mental health services between urban and non-urban communities. While recent research has acknowledged the role of mental health in well-being and the cost of failure to invest in the sector, prioritising mental health to the same degree as physical health remains a challenge. This article highlights the unequal distribution of mental health services, and psychological services in particular, in KwaZulu-Natal. This is

Abstract:
Health psychology's public debut may be historically identified as having occurred in 1978 internationally and in 1989 in South Africa. It has since developed its own important role in disease prevention and health enhancement due to several good reasons highlighted in this article. This includes an increased sophistication in health-care consumerism which has also found expression in a renewed awareness of accepting personal responsibility for one's health because of the acknowledgement that lifestyle and behaviour change play crucial roles in health and disease. These developments have unfol

Abstract:
Educational psychology in South Africa has been defined in the past as an interventional and helping profession, mainly focused on the alleviation of educational problems such as learning disability or emotional issues that interfere with the educational process. Educational psychologists, apparently by predeliction, have had little to do with the general processes of learning and schooling, nor have they been concerned with educational policy issues. This may be partly to do with the fact that the training of educational psychologists in South Africa is generally light in the theory of cognit

Abstract:
In this paper the author sketches how the issues of ‘race’ and racism have been taken up on the psychological terrain in South Africa over the past century. Racism manifested as both segregation and inequality in mental health provisions, and was actively promoted by leading psychologists. Psychologists on the other side of a political divide however turned attention to analysis of race relations mainly through the study of prejudice. Three areas of research are reviewed. While some useful findings have emerged, certain criticisms may be directed against this liberal framework of ‘race’ as pre

The move to PHC involves an increased need for collaboration between health professionals.

The mental health care needs of South Africa have shifted significantly in the postapartheid context of changing political and socioeconomic landscapes. However, the extent to which clinical psychologists’ professional identity has responded accordingly has been unclear. By establishing the practice patterns and values that should be central to the profession according to the literature, and ascertaining the extent to which these are reflected among professionals at this time, this study facilitates a re-evaluation of the professional identity of clinical psychologists in South Africa.

Abstract:
Numerous international and South African scholars are critical of the dominant research on the phenomenon of schizophrenia. Rather than refuting dominant biomedical psychiatric conceptualisations of schizophrenia, there is a call for incorporating a focus on the psychology of the person diagnosed with schizophrenia. In South Africa, the integration of the psychosocial components of psychotic experiences into the understanding and treatment of psychosis are still neglected in biomedically-focused psychiatric settings. In relation to this call, the role of clinical psychologists working within t

During the mid to late 1990's, nearly all HIV infected children admitted to South African paediatric intensive care units died. This was in the context of an increasing HIV epidemic in Sub-Saharan Africa, a limited number of intensive care beds in public hospitals and the South African government refusing to supply antiretroviral medication to public sector patients. HIV infected children all die without ARV medication, and it resulted in an increase in the South African under-5 mortality rate. In this context critically ill HIV infected children were often denied PICU admission. Developed cou

Abstract:
In 2005, the clinical director of the Batho Pele clinic1 in the Gauteng province in South Africa requested the assistance of the Department of Informatics at the University of Pretoria in addressing their IS issues. This request fitted the department’s research interests in health information systems (HIS), as well the broader research focus and commitment to provide outreach services to the community. Knowing the problems of commencing projects without having planned for sustainability and scalability, the HIS research group elected to use the “networks of action” concept to partner and collaborate with the various role players, institutions, and other ART entities. This process of developing interconnecting networks of human and nonhuman entities in South Africa and beyond its borders raised a number of opportunities, challenges, and tensions in initiating this project. To provide a background to this process, the next section introduces the concept of “networks of action” and a brief description of the ART clinic. The following section develops the main focus of this chapter, which is the process of developing these networks. The last section suggests the necessity of developing networks of action as a future trend for sustainable IS.
