Abstract: We created a 105-statement rubric to measure APA benchmarks in psychology graduate students' clinical practice during simulated patient encounters, as part of their coursework. We consulted previous literature to identify statements that aligned with 12 of the total competencies. We anchored each statement with a five-point (novice to expert scale).
