What Psychology Professionals Should Know About Polyamory The Lifestyles and Mental Health Concerns of Polyamorous Individuals Geri D. Weitzman gdw@numenor.org Based on a paper presented at the 8th Annual Diversity Conference March 12th, 1999 ~ Albany, New York Table of Contents Introduction Types of polyamory Benefits of polyamory Demographic data on polyamory ... Acknowledgements Introduction Not much is known by the psychology field concerning polyamory. Our textbooks on family functioning don't mention it, our diversity literature doesn't incorporate it, and many members of the polyamory community have reported encounters with therapists who are uninformed at best, or biased at worst, about this lifestyle. As a polyamorous woman who is also a psychology professional, I am in a position to try and bridge this distance between the polyamorous community and the psychology profession. This paper will aim to provide psychology professionals with a general introduction to the lifestyles and concerns of polyamorous individuals. It is hoped that this will enhance psychology professionals' understanding of, and ability to provide services to, polyamorous clientele. I will begin this paper by describing the three main variations of polyamory and the benefits that polyamorous individuals reap from this lifestyle, followed by some demographic data about the prevalence of polyamory within our culture. Following this, I will present a summary of the research studies that have been conducted on polyamory to date. Therapists' views of polyamory will be examined, and empirical data on the psychological and interpersonal functioning of polyamorous individuals will be presented. A brief multicultural perspective will be included as well.

Classics in the History of Psychology An internet resource developed by Christopher D. Green York University, Toronto, Ontario (Return to Classics index [Classics Editor's Note: Footnotes are in square brackets; references in round brackets] CONSTRUCT VALIDITY IN PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS Lee J. Cronbach and Paul E. Meehl (1955) First published in Psychological Bulletin Validation of psychological tests has not yet been adequately conceptualized, as the APA Committee on Psychological Tests learned when it undertook (1950-54) to specify what qualities should be investigated before a test is published. In order to make coherent recommendations the Committee found it necessary to distinguish four types of validity, established by different types of research and requiring different interpretation. The chief innovation in the Committee's report was the term construct validity ] This idea was first formulated by a subcommittee (Meehl and R. C. Challman) studying how proposed recommendations would apply to projective techniques, and later modified and clarified by the entire Committee (Bordin, Challman, Conrad, Humphreys, Super, and the present writers). The statements agreed upon by the Committee (and by committees of two other associations) were published in the Technical Recommendations ). The present interpretation of construct validity is not "official" and deals with some areas where the Committee would probably not be unanimous. The present writers are solely responsible for this attempt to explain the concept and elaborate its implications.

Welcome to the Occupational Health Psychology (OHP) Homepage. NIOSH has an active interest in promoting the new field of OHP. On this page you will find information on upcoming OHP conferences, links to schools that offer graduate-level training in OHP, an OPH bibliography, and more. What is OHP? NIOSH - APA Contributions to OHP OHP Graduate Training Programs OHP Listserve ... OHP Bibliography What is OHP? Many psychologists have argued that the psychology field needs to take a more active role in research and practice to prevent occupational stress, illness, and injury. This is what the new field of Occupational Health Psychology (OHP) is all about. Although research and practice in OHP may cover a wide range of topics, NIOSH has urged that this new field give special attention to the primary prevention of organizational risk factors for stress, illness, and injury at work. This viewpoint is expressed in the NIOSH-proposed definition of OHP: OHP concerns the application of psychology to improving the quality of work life, and to protecting and promoting the safety, health and well-being of workers. The notion of health "protection" in this definition refers to intervention in the work environment to reduce worker exposures to workplace hazards, while health "promotion" refers to individual-level interventions to equip workers with knowledge and resources to improve their health and thereby resist hazards in the work environment. Although both of these types of interventions can be defined as primary prevention, the NIOSH-proposed definition places priority on health protection. OHP is especially concerned with the dramatic transformation of work and employment that has been underway in industrial economies since the 1980s (e.g., flexible employment and production processes), and how changing organizational structures and processes are influencing the health and well-being of workers and their families.

113. An Alternative IDEA Changes to the disabilities education law mean psychologists might need to However, an alternative method called response to intervention, or RTI, http://www.apa.org/monitor/apr05/idea.html

Volume 36, No. 4 April 2005 A bright IDEA? Key congressional effort preserves psychologists' rights under IDEA Table of Contents "The changes in IDEA call upon psychologists in schools to be advocates. Psychologists need to educate school districts about appropriate models." Ron Palomares APA Practice Directorate An alternative IDEA Changes to the disabilities education law mean psychologists might need to learn and support different assessment methods. BY MARK GREER Monitor Staff Print version: page 44 When Congress passed a new version of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) last year, it altered many aspects that affect the work of psychologists in elementary and secondary schools. Some psychologists' paperwork could decrease, for example, and others may be allowed to use e-mail to streamline the process of arranging meetings with parents ( see sidebar ). But no doubt the biggest change to affect practitioners is in how they assess children for learning disabilities. Under the revised law, school districts are no longer required to use the IQ-achievement discrepancy model to assess whether a child is learning disabled. As a result, psychologists working in schools that adopt new assessment methods must alter how they assess students, perhaps in ways they aren't familiar with. Psychologists have long debated the current assessment method, which uses the discrepancy between a student's cognitive and achievement test scores to assess learning disabilities. Some feel that model isn't effective, while others feel an imperfect model is better than the new models, which focus instead on student interventions but lack scientific proof that they work. As a result, some psychologists welcome a potential shift away from discrepancy models, while others remain wary.

An experienced flight instructor once said this about the tendency for people to keep falling back to old ways - "The problem is not learning the new; it's forgetting (unlearning) the old!" Old Way New Way offers a new theory of learning and a cost-effective, user friendly method of continuous improvement and change management in sport, workplace safety and training, health professions, education, defence forces training and personal development. Endorsed by Australian State governments as an innovative and effective learning method, Old Way New Way is a fascinating synthesis of past and emerging research into the psychology of learning, sports psychology, training science and coaching science. It explains why adaptation to change takes so long; why performance slows and errors increase during the transition; why people initially appear to improve and then forget their learning under pressure; and why they keep falling back to old ways under conventional, i.e., currently available, methods of coaching, teaching, training, therapy and personal development.
