DIVISION 29 POLICY ON RESEARCH ACTIVITIES USING THE LISTSERV

The American Psychological Association changed its policy of prohibiting the posting of requests for survey participants on APA-sponsored listservs, including the Division 29's listserv (click to see APA's letter). The revised policy now allows divisions to decide whether they will permit students and other researchers to post their calls for survey participants on the division's listserv.

At their Fall 2006 Board meeting, the governing officers of Division 29 voted to PERMIT students and other researchers who are due-paying members of Division 29 to post their calls for survey participants on the Division 29 listserv. It is hoped that this policy will encourage more research in and on psychotherapy.
