DESCRIPTION:Health Service Psychology trainers promote rigorous research me
 thods and statistical training\, yet causal inference is often treated imp
 licitly or deferred to advanced electives. We contend that causal inferenc
 e should be viewed as part of the common core of doctoral training – a u
 niversal intervention that benefits all students\, whether it is specific 
 to students’ research focus or simply supports better conceptualization 
 of research problems. We revisit the central role of theory and articulate
  problems guiding research designs\, which are often taught to students. W
 e plan to illustrate how trainers can help students better appreciate when
  and why psychologists should care about causation\, not merely associatio
 n. We aim to develop discussion of pedagogical strategies for “hand-over
 -hand” training that moves beyond rote warnings (e.g.\, “correlation i
 s not causation”) toward teaching of more principled causal thinking. Fi
 nally\, we consider the downstream effects of including more causal infere
 nce in graduate training.
