| Abstrak | : | Injuries are the leading cause of death for American children, killing over 11,000 children in 2017. They are also a rapidly increasing public health challenge globally: The World Health Organization ranks injury as the leading cause of death globally for children Ages 5 to 18 years, and the Global Burden of Diseases project estimates over 2 million children Ages 0 to 19 years died from injuries worldwide in 2017. Unintentional injuries, sometimes referred to as “accidents” by the lay public, are generally preventable, and psychological science has much to offer in societal efforts to develop, evaluate, implement, and disseminate effective prevention strategies. I first discuss the multifaceted causes of child injuries, which can be conceptualized using classic psychological theory, such as Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory, or classic injury prevention theory, such as the Haddon Matrix. In either case, behavioral risks stem from the child’s developmentally influenced decisions and behaviors; the child’s family, social, and physical contexts; and the child’s broader cultural environments. Risks can also be conceptualized temporally, through behavioral analysis such as antecedents, behaviors, and consequences of the injury. I then present examples of behaviorally focused interventions that target the child, the adult supervisor, and the environment. In each case, I consider psychological risk factors present and the theory-based strategies that might interrupt or alter risk pathways to prevent injury events. I close with comments on the scope of injury as a global public health challenge and the central role psychologists can and should play to reduce the burden of child injury on the world’s population.

| Abstrak | : | The Award for Distinguished Professional Contributions to Applied Research is given to a psychologist whose research has led to important discoveries or developments in the field of applied psychology. The 2019 recipient is David C. Schwebel, "for achievements using psychological theory and science to reduce the leading cause of child death in the United States and much of the world: unintentional injury. David C. Schwebel has published article after article introducing, evaluating, and disseminating creative and novel ways to reduce child injury risk through behavioral changes among children, among adult supervisors of children, and via manipulation of the environments with which children and youth engage. He hallmarks the act of “giving psychology away” by implementing behavioral strategies to address acts that might be considered “accidental” but can—and should—be prevented to improve human health and happiness.” (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved) |

| Abstrak | : | This award is given to a psychologist whose research has led to important discoveries or developments in the field of applied psychology. To be eligible, this research should have led to innovative applications in an area of psychological practice, including but not limited to assessment, consultation, instruction, or intervention (either direct or indirect). Research involving the original development of procedures, methodologies, or technical skills that significantly improve the application of psychological knowledge and provide direct and immediate solutions to practical problem areas will be considered, as will research that has informed psychologists on how better to observe, define, predict, or control behavior. Original integration of existing theories or knowledge is also eligible for consideration. In previous years, this award was called the Award for Distinguished Professional Contributions to Knowledge. The name was changed in 2003 to better describe this award. The 2019 recipients of the APA Professional Contributions Awards were selected by the 2018 Board of Professional Affairs (BPA). (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved) |

| Abstrak | : | The Edwin B. Newman Graduate Research Award is given jointly by Psi Chi and APA. The award was established to recognize young researchers at the beginning of their professional lives and to commemorate both the 50th anniversary of Psi Chi and the 100th anniversary of psychology as a science (dating from the founding of Wundt’s laboratory). It was named for Dr. Edwin B. Newman, the first national president of Psi Chi (1929) and one of its founders. The 2019 recipient is Lydia G. Roos, “for an outstanding research paper that examined how trait suppression and reappraisal interact with stressful life events to affect cortisol reactivity. Suppression, but not reappraisal, was associated with cortisol responses to acute stress for people with more exposure to recent stressful events, particularly when events included a relationship stressor. The paper, titled “Recent Stressful Life Events, Relationship Stressors, and Cortisol Reactivity: The Moderating Role of Suppression,” and coauthored by Drs. Jeanette M. Bennett and Sara M. Levens, was the basis for Lydia G. Roos’s selection as the recipient of the 2019 Psi Chi/APA Edwin B. Newman Graduate Research Award.” (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved) |

| Abstrak | : | The culture of competence is upon the profession of psychology. Although that culture has resulted in numerous changes in the profession over the past few decades, we continue to face challenges. These challenges include issues such as the profession’s competency models, training models, accreditation models, specific competencies (e.g., research, diversity, supervision), training sequence concerns (e.g., the internship match imbalance, postdoctoral experience requirements), and scope of competent practice issues. This article describes these challenges with the hope that the profession of psychology will be able to work together to resolve them, in spite of some critical differences in viewpoints.
