The Program in Measurement, Statistics and Evaluation (EDMS) is pleased to announce its popular three-day short course:
INTRODUCTION TO BAYESIAN STATISTICAL MODELING June 7-9, 2017 (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday) Location: College Park, Maryland (an on-line option is available) Instructor: Dr. Roy Levy, Arizona State University ([email protected]) This three-day course is intended as both a theoretical and practical introduction to Bayesian statistical modeling. The course does not require expertise with calculus or prior experience with Bayesianapproaches. An understanding of Bayesian statistical modeling will be developed by relating it to participants’ existing knowledge of traditional frequentist approaches. To introduce Bayesian principles in familiar contexts we will begin with simple binomial and univariate normal models, then move to regression, and then give examples of more complex models including factor analysis, item response models, structural equation models, multilevel modeling, and Bayesian networks. Along the way, we will cover aspects of modeling including model construction, graphical representations of models, Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation, evaluating hypotheses and model-data fit, model comparisons, and modeling in the presence of missing data. For more information on the workshop, including registration, please visit http://www.education.umd.edu/EDMS/ShortCourses/Bayesworkshoppage2017.html Please feel free to contact Dr. Levy ([email protected]) with questions about the workshop. Make your reservations soon! ************************************************************ Gregory R.

Polanin Open Call for Manuscripts Special Issue on “Clinical Apps and Public Service Settings” Psychological Services Deadline: June 30, 2017 The editorial staff of Division 18’s APA journal Psychological Services would like to invite you to submit articles for a special issue on Clinical Apps and Public Service Settings that will be edited by Femina P. Varghese, PhD, Gary R. VandenBos, PhD., and Guest Editor Julia Hoffman, Psy.D.
The growing prevalence of mobile devices has also increased the development of mobile applications for a wide range of uses. Applied psychology is not exempt from this trend, and mobile applications, termed “clinical apps,” are continuing to be developed to supplement treatment and assessment. However, the scholarly literature on such clinical apps is still somewhat lacking. Reviews and comparative analyses of clinical apps would expand providers’ awareness of such apps and inform providers on how to most effectively utilize them in the comprehensive treatment of clients. Given the need for more literature on the development, use, and effectiveness of clinical apps for public service settings and populations, this special issue is focused on publishing papers that cover clinical apps broadly, including reviews, empirical studies, innovative developments, and policy papers. Considering the nature of the journal, papers should be focused on the use of clinical apps in organized care settings such as community mental health settings, community health centers, schools, child guidance clinics, rehab units, correctional settings, police departments, jails, prisons, courts, probation departments, Indian Health Service, special services departments, university clinics, training hospitals, local/state hospitals, and local government agencies. This special section will be devoted to all aspects of clinical apps and public service settings, including, but not limited to: · Clinical apps for the diagnosis and treatment of specific behavioral problems, emotional disturbance, mental illness, and physical health issues · Clinical outcome data on the use of specific apps or types of clinical apps · Reviews on apps developed for specific issues and populations (e.g., military, corrections, youth, integrated care settings, and school systems) · Comparative reviews of ease of use and utility of data from different clinical apps attempting to assess, measure or monitor the same problem behavior · Evidenced based and empirically supported treatments with the use of clinical apps · Integrating clinical apps with psychotherapy and other treatments · Patient and provider experiences in the use of apps · Ethical considerations in the use of clinical apps · Measurement issues with clinical apps · Quality enhancement issues with clinical apps In sum, we welcome manuscripts related to a variety of topics related to Clinical Apps in Public Service Settings, including empirical, conceptual, and theoretical papers focused on service provision. The deadline for receipt of papers for this special section is June 30, 2017. Please follow the Instructions to Authors information located on the Psychological Services website at:http://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/ser . Manuscripts must be submitted electronically through the Manuscript Submission Web Portal as described on the journal's website, here:http://www.editorialmanager.com/svs/ Please specify in your cover letter that the submission is intended for the special section on Clinical Apps and Public Service Settings and address your submission cover letter to Dr. Femina P. Varghese, Dr. Gary R. VandenBos, and Dr. Julia Hoffman. All papers submitted will be initially screened by the editorial board and then sent out for blind peer review. If evaluated as appropriate for the journal, papers will then be sent out for blind peer review. For further questions related to this special section, please contact Dr. Vandenbos at [email protected], Dr. Varghese at [email protected], and Dr. Hoffman at [email protected].
