Maybe I might lean towards the latter, because from what I can gather, you become a "psykolog" after 5 years' study, then get your licence after a year's clinical experience so during that second period, you are actually practising.
Peter Shortall Oct 1, 2007:
Well, I wasn't going to offer a translation :D But sounds good to me. The only English translation I've been able to find, used by one of these people, is "Clinical psychologist (training for license)"
Paul Lambert (asker) Oct 1, 2007:
Good searching Peter. Then in your opinion, do you think something like "psychologist-in-training" would be a good translation?

(Remember, the people in this field are extremely picky about their titles)

And "Legitimerad psykolog kan man bli först efter en ettårig praktik, s.k. PTP-tjänst ("praktisk tjänstgöring för psykologlegitimation")." http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psykologi
Peter Shortall Oct 1, 2007:
I've found what it stands for: "PTP står för Praktisk tjänstgöring för psykologlegitimation..." http://www.jll.se/frisikt2/bloggfrisikt/189annamittendorfptp...
