Subject: survey for psychology teachers

Sent on behalf of Dr. Kristi Multhaup at Davidson College.

Dear Psychology faculty colleagues (with apologies to those affected by postings to multiple APA divisions),

We are collecting data about psychology professors' behavior in teaching situations. In order to report accurately about the current state of behaviors related to the teaching of psychology at the collegiate level, we need a robust sample size. Thus we hope you will participate through the link below.

The survey is anonymous and should take roughly 20 min to complete. Participants will complete the survey about teaching behaviors anonymously; they have the option to enter in the second, separate survey their name and email address for compensation purposes (a drawing for one of seventy $25 Amazon gift cards).

The project has been approved by the Davidson College HSIRB.

In the spirit of helping us obtain accurate data and a robust sample, you are welcome to share the link with your colleagues who teach psychology at the collegiate level.

[#DIV28SUPER] Fwd: [DIVOFFICERS] violence in our cities

From: "McDaniel, Susan (Psychiatry)" <SusanH2_McDaniel@URMC.ROCHESTER.EDU>
Date: July 11, 2016 at 3:00:41 AM EDT
To: DIVOFFICERS@LISTS.APA.ORG
Subject: [DIVOFFICERS] violence in our cities
Reply-To: "McDaniel, Susan (Psychiatry)" <SusanH2_McDaniel@URMC.ROCHESTER.EDU>

Good evening to you all:

While I work with staff on an Op Ed piece about psychological science, the roots of violence, racial bias—conscious and unconscious, and the challenges facing police, I want to write more immediately to recognize for all of us psychologists how heart-breaking and tragic these recent events are for our communities and our country. The headlines of today's NY Times, above the fold, say it all: America Grieves, Tense and Wary; Seeking Unity, Nation Debates Racial Chasm; Officers Confront Dual Role: Villain and Victim; and Gunman Honed Military Skills to a Deadly Outcome in Dallas.

It is a time for us, individually and collectively, to put our psychological science and practice skills to work as best we can—reaching out to our patients, our colleagues, our students, our friends, our families, and our communities--to encourage dialogue over violence, understanding over ignorance, and to bring about greater equity and opportunity for all people in our country. As leaders in APA, we all know there is so much talent in our discipline and our association; let us each bring it bear in helping this awful moment move towards something much stronger for the futures of all our people.

In February of this year in response to my Presidential column in the Monitor on developing a "Collaborative Habit," I received a hand-written, passionate letter from a psychologist who described himself as "88.6 years old." Attached was a typed essay he wrote a couple years before in which, based on his work with group psychotherapy, he proposed starting a nationwide network of psychologists who would facilitate diverse groups of people to "just talk" and work towards greater understanding of each other. Believe me, I am not implying life is that simple. The structural racism and violence in this country goes far beyond just talk. But it is an example of one psychologist wanting to use his skills to improve our country. Similarly, a clinical researcher wrote and after talking about empathy, the ability to listen and understand, concern about the welfare of others, and the ability to remain non-judgmental in difficult situations, she said: As psychologists, we can serve as models for what kind of attitude and actions we can take to get ourselves out of the current mess we are in as a country.

My heart is heavy tonight. I hope we can each find a way to contribute professionally and personally, as effectively as possible, through our knowledge of psychological science, practice, education, and policy. We must do more to improve the lives and opportunities available to all our people. Thanks for all you do,

Susan

[#DIV28SUPER] Fwd: Take Action Now - Urge Congress to Addreess the Opioid and Heroin Epidemics

Dear Colleagues,

It's not a perfect bill but it's the loudest conversation we've had about substance use disorders on Capitol Hill in recent memory, so please contact your Members of Congress today. You should find the automated system, linked in the action alert below, quick and easy to use on a day when numbers count.

For those interested in additional background, please see:

Thanks.

Best,

Take Action Now to Address the Opioid and Heroin Epidemics

Ask Your Members of Congress to Vote in Favor of the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act Conference Report

The Conference Report of Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act is expected to move to the floor for a vote this Friday. Now is the time to contact your Members of Congress and urge them vote in favor of this critical legislation.

The United States is currently in the midst of two national epidemics. Heroin use and prescription opioid misuse are having a devastating impact on the public health and safety of our communities nationwide. Each day, 129 Americans die as a result of drug overdose and more than half of those deaths involve opioids. As psychologists, we know that substance use disorders are treatable, yet only about 10 percent of individuals who need treatment are receiving it. Discoveries in the science of addiction have led to life-saving advances in drug abuse treatments. However, there is critical need for training and resources to disseminate information and improve access to evidence-based treatment nationwide.

The Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) will save lives and improve the health and safety of our communities by addressing critical components of the response to the opioid epidemic including: prevention, treatment, recovery, and interactions with the criminal justice system. Please contact your Members of Congress TODAY to ask them to vote in favor of the CARA Conference Report and send it to the President's desk for signature.
