The introductory is concise and includes a brief description of the topic including its history. The tone of the article is informative or neutral. Regarding balance of the article, under Training and Certification the article is more informative of the U.K. clinical psychology doctorate. It is more descriptive about the process of obtaining a doctorate in psychology for the U.K. paragraph when compared to the paragraph explaining the same process in the U.S. However the rest of the section is well balanced. The overall content of the article seems appropriate for the topic since there is a thorough overview of the history of clinical psychology, the different methods used in the field, measurement domains, etc. Sources are reputable and the links to them work as well. The article is rated as B-class. The talk-page discussion seems to be balanced with people putting their thoughts about improving the article. Overall, the article is well-developed with appropriate tone, organization, images, and sources.
