Abstract
Psychologists (44 men, 6 women) were identified as individuals who received both Fellow status from Division 17 of the APA and ABPP Diplomate status i n Counseling Psychology. Years of postdoctoral experience acquired prior to gaining the credentials averaged 13.1 (SD=6.1) for the Division 17 Fellow and 9.8 (SD=4.7) for the ABPP Diplomate. 25 different degree-granting insti tutions provided training for the 50 whose careers exemplify the scientist- practitioner approach to their work. Columbia graduated 9 of these psycholo gists, whereas Ohio State and Minnesota graduated 5 each. In regard to degr ee specialty, 37 (74%) gained their degrees from counseling or counseling p sychology programs, whereas 11 (22%) gained their degrees from other types of psychology programs. These psychologists tended to work in academic inst itutions and to publish an average of .57 journal articles per year.
