Member-at-Large: Science & Practice
I would like to start by highlighting the great success of our second SCCAP Clinical Practice Institute (CPI), “Navigating Technology and Social Media Use with Children, Adolescents, and Families: Clinical Implications of APA Guidance on Social Media Use”. SCCAP hosted 3 monthly sessions in the Fall of 2023 with a fantastic group of speakers, including Dr. Sophia Choukas-Bradley, Dr. Jessica Hamilton, Dr. Candice Biernesser, and Dr. Sarah Domoff (https://sccap53.org/the-clinical-practice-institute-cpi/). Session participation ranged from 30-45 SCCAP members, and attendees were active and engaged, discussing ideas about how to support parents who are concerned about their teen’s technology use, especially how to do so in a collaborative way, and about best practices for assessing and treating problematic media use. SCCAP CPI was designed to be a series of 3, 3-hour interactive seminars, with a focus on tangible, evidence-based practices and recommendations to take straight to clinical practice, and we received feedback that this year’s offering met this goal!
- “Excellent webinar with a great balance of lecture and discussion, with very helpful resources for clinical practice.”
- “An informative training that provided useful information and concrete tools that will be very helpful in practice. Thank you!”
- “Excellent presentation; cannot recommend it enough. Very nicely done. Great speakers who are definitely on top of their field.”
Members, we want to hear from you! Are you interested in us continuing CPI? Are there topics that you hope CPI will explore? Please contact me if you have ideas. Also, let me know if you would like to serve on the 2024 CPI Sub-Committee, forming now!
I want to highlight a few specific science and practice resources from APA. If you have not already, please sign up for the APA Science Spotlight, available at: https://www.apa.org/news/science-spotlight. Additionally, the APA Practice Directorate has an email list for Practitioners, available at: https://www.apa.org/practice/resources/listserv.
If you would like to become more involved in SCCAP and are interested in contributing to the Science or Practice Committees, please contact me at Jennifer.Hughes@nationwidechildrens.org
