Wellesley Centers for Women IN THE NEWS A Psychiatrist Posed As a Teen With Therapy Chatbots. The Conversations Were Alarming TIME

The @apajournals.bsky.social's AI and Adolescent Wellbeing health advisory was cited in a @time.com article about the problematic nature of therapy chatbots. Senior Research Scientist Linda Charmaraman was a member of the expert advisory panel for the health advisory! [1/3]
#devpsy #scipub #cogpsyc

Wellesley Centers for Women IN THE NEWS "[Dr. Andrew Clark] decided to test some of the most popular bots on the market, posing as teenage patients in need. The results were alarming. The bots encouraged him to 'get rid of his parents and to join the bot in the afterlife to share eternity.' They often tried to convince him that they were licensed human therapists and encouraged him to cancel appointments with actual psychologists. They also crossed the line into sexual territory, with one bot suggesting an intimate date as an 'intervention' for violent urges." TIME

#booksky #devpsyc #nonfiction

Wellesley Centers for Women IN THE NEWS 'In a baby book, Price's mother noted that her daughter's first words were "Where's Daddy?" - a question, Price recalls, that was not one of love but of self-protection; even at such a young age, she feared her father's presence. Reckoning with the lingering effects of chronic violence and sexual abuse led Price to the offices of trauma researcher Bessel van der Kolk, who found her story so instructive that, with her permission, he included her in his best-selling book "The Body Keeps the Score"." The Washington Post

Kate's book details her harrowing experience uncovering her memories of childhood sexual abuse and that experience's impact on her decision to work in child sex trafficking prevention. This Happened To Me is available August 5th from Simon & Schuster. [2/3]

What challenges do family child care providers in Massachusetts face? Key findings from Understanding 'Post- Pandemic' Family Child Care Providers: Survey of New Entrants and Those Who Left the Field

Family child care providers' most important reasons for entering the field: To be able to work with children (76.5%) Because child care is important work (74.6%) Because I am good at caring for children (72.3%) To be my own boss (66.5%) To be able to work from home (65.0%) To be home with my own children (64.6%) To have a secure job (63.1%) Many child care providers have a passion for caring for children, and seek to do so while having workplace autonomy and economic mobility for themselves and their families.

Resources child care providers would utilize: Retirement benefits 68.8% Business support 61.2% Disability payments 60.4% Child care business management software 57.7% Help with start-up costs 56.9% Health care benefits 55.8% Help advertising their program and finding children 53.8% Program support 50.8% Professional development 50.8% Retirement benefits, disability benefits, and business support ranked highest among child care providers' resource needs.

Child care providers would stay in the field longer if they had: Higher income 62.7% Retirement benefits 46.9% More local services and resources to help me run my family child care business 40.8% More respect for work I do 40.4% Health benefits 36.9% A lack of income, benefits, local services, and respect for the field all contribute significantly to the child care field's relatively high turnover rate.

What challenges do family care providers in MA face? Here are some key findings from "Understanding 'Post-Pandemic' Family Child Care Providers", a research study headed by WCW Researcher Dr. Wendy Robeson and Dr. Kimberly Lucas of @nu-policyschool.bsky.social. #ECEC #DevPsy #PedSky #PASky
