Abstract
Increasing demand for integrated care necessitates interprofessional training of mental and behavioral professionals. This study examines the effect of an interprofessional training program for social work and counseling trainees (PRI-Care) in 3 areas: interprofessional valuing and socialization, team skills, and professional development, including the interrelationship between these 3 areas. A cross-sectional survey-based pre-post design was utilized across 4 cohorts of students participating in the training program from 2018 through 2021. Among 111 students, interprofessional valuing and socialization, team skills, and professional development increased in pre- to post surveys. Older trainees had higher self-perceptions of interprofessional valuing and socialization. Further, higher levels of interprofessional valuing after training predicted higher self-perceived professional development. Students entering work in mental and behavioral health benefited from the specialized interprofessional training. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
