Is anyone here applying for an internship this year? I really appreciate your help!

I am in the adult track (non-neuro), so I don't have many integrated reports. I did only around 10 integrated reports when I did some psychoeducational assessments for students with learning disabilities...etc, in a school setting. On the other hand, I have so many psychodiagnostic assessments (doing my practicum at an Easting disorder program for a year and later a Substance use program). However, at those two practicum sites, we didn't do any cognitive measures (only personality measures), so I have zero integrated reports from those sites. But I still think my experience of those psychodiagnostic assessment reports is quite important. I wonder what you do on your CV to reflect all these psychodiagnostic reports (such as diagnosing someone with MDD, GAD, PTSD and personality disorders without using any cognitive/intellectual/neuro tests)?

My question is, on your CV, I think on one of my sites that I did integrated reports - I would write "conducted 10 psychoeducational assessments and wrote 10 integrated reports." But on the other 2 sites, I had so many psychodiagnostic assessments (for people with substance use and eating disoders), so what do you put on the CV? At this moments, I put "completed 23 psychodiagnostic assessments and wrote 23 assessment reports to patients with eating disoders." I wonder if I can just simply use "assessment reports" on my CV? Would this be confusing to the readers?

I know it's a bit late to ask this when the deadline is coming, but I just had this question come to my mind. I am the only adult track student who applies for an internship this year. My other classmates are from neuro and child track, and they mainly write integrated reports.

Thank you so much!
note: I know the definition of the integrated reports: The APPIC definition of an integrated psychological testing report is a report that includes a review of history, results of an interview and at least two psychological tests from one or more of the following categories: personality measures, intellectual tests, cognitive tests, and neuropsychological tests.

On the AAPI, you list out all the measures you’ve administered and how many times you’ve administered them (as well as whether they were for clinical or research purposes). You don’t need to spell out how many reports you did on your CV for each site. I would just state something like “conducted psychodiagnostic assessments using objective personality measures and structured clinical interviews for diagnostic clarification to patients in an eating disorders program” or whatever these assessments entailed.

Thank you for the suggestions!
 
I agree, I don't think you need to list in your CV the number of evaluations and reports you completed (although those who've applied for internship in recent years can correct me if they've received feedback that differs).

I can say that having 10 integrated reports as a non-neuro applicant will still probably put you ahead of a number of other applicants.
