Description
Stewart Donaldson, dean of the School of Behavioral and Organizational Sciences at Claremont Graduate University opens this symposium with a presentation about the “second boom” of applied psychology and evaluation. In this new phase of the field, one which typically deals with important issues such as prejudice and discrimination, health care, education, and poverty among many others, good intentions are no longer enough. Rather, the professionals require credible evidence to justify their work. Donaldson discusses how the field has moved towards greater accountability as evidenced by an increasing number of professional organizations, specific examples of evidence-based practice, and a description of the ongoing debate about what constitutes credible evidence.
