Comment(by pmdci):

 Here is the correct code to achieve the results I was expecting:

 {{{
 <?php
   $post_type = get_post_type( $post );
   if ( is_single() &&  $post_type == 'post' ) { include 'dashboard.php'; }
 ?>
   <?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) :
 ?>
 }}}

 The issue is that '''is_post_type()''' sounds confusing, because it
 suggest that it checks for the current post type when in fact, as said
 previously, it checks if the post type in question is registered on the in
 the system. The codex for the '''is_post_type()''' function has been
 amended to clarify this.
