| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to describe and consider the activities and attitudes of clinical psychologists(CPs) in medical fields with highly advanced technology. In the first study, about 30 clinical psychological studies on HIV/AIDS counseling(HAC), genetic counseling (GC), neonatal care in NICU(NCN), counseling for infertile couples(CIC), counseling for cancer patients(CCP), and mental care for donors and recipients in organ plantation care(OPC) were reviewed. In the second study, a questionnaire was elaborated and distributed to random sampled 828 CPs in medical fields. Of successfully returned 449,133 (29.8%) CPs had experienced psychosocial cares in those 6 fields : CCP (44.2%), HAC(16.4%), CIC(11.9%), NCN(10.2%), GC(8.8%) and OPC(8.4%). Excepting HAC, most CPs were young and inexperienced as helping professionals. Supporting systems and successive training programs for them were undeveloped. In the third study, a qualitative questionnaire was elaborated and distributed to experienced and leading 42 CPs in those fields. The results supported the quantitative results of the second study. In the fourth study, 3 leading CPs in CCP, NCN and CIC were interviewed to explore their professional networking among CPs in each field. Finally, the significance of collaboration between clinicians and researchers in each network were discussed.
