Greetings ArPA Leadership, 

 

As your APA Council of Representatives member, I am preparing for our
upcoming council meeting (February 19-22) in Washington, DC.  Each
Council representative has been asked to poll our respective Executive
Committee about the most critical, top three, strategic issues facing
the discipline over the next 5-10 years.  

 

Note that by "strategic issues facing psychology" we mean high level,
overarching concerns that will influence many if not most areas of
psychology in the next decade or so and/or that will influence how
psychology interacts with the world around it. Examples might include
psychology's role in primary care and
globalization/internationalization.  

These results will be aggregated by APA staff and be made use of during
the Council strategic issue discussions.  

 

What I need from you is input!  As a group, we need to decide on ArPA's
top three, critical, strategic issues that we believe are facing the
discipline over the next 5-10 years, and I'll be sure to communicate
this to APA for discussion at the upcoming Council meeting.

 

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
