If we do not take on this task,
the challenge will not magically disappear. Rather, someone
else will dictate what treatments are acceptable and what
types of evidence are privileged. We will have MORE leverage
with insurers, courts and policy-makers when APA has a clear
statement asserting that we are a science-based profession
and preserving the right for psychologists to make the
final, evidence-informed decisions in clinical practice.
