My lived experience as a CODA and the long-standing tension between the scientific, clinical, and applied aspects of psychology are described in detail.

Increasing the representation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour as students in psychology doctoral programmes.
Canadian Psychology / Psychologie canadienne, Vol 63(4), Nov 2022, 479-499; doi:10.1037/cap0000339There have been persistent calls for increased representation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) in all aspects of the psychology workforce. For equity to occur in the profession and delivery of services, there must be equity in access to graduate-level training in psychology. In this article, we discuss systemic racial inequity in access to Canadian psychology graduate programmes. We reviewed literature to investigate admissions evaluation criteria for racial bias using the University of Ottawa, School of Psyc...

Acute and enduring effects of naturalistic psychedelic use among Indigenous peoples in Canada and the United States.
This study examined the effects of naturalistic psychedelic use on recalled psychological distress and trauma symptoms among Indigenous peoples living in the United States and Canada who had experienced racial trauma.

Sixty-six participants (74.3% residents of Canada, 60.6% female, mean age of 35.9 years) self-identified as Indigenous. Participants mostly reported ora...

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are increasing in indigenous populations in Canada: Now what?
Canadian Psychology / Psychologie canadienne, Vol 63(4), Nov 2022, 576-588; doi:10.1037/cap0000331Although recent literature completed in the United States shows that individual exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) is generally declining on a national level, analyses have not yet determined how these trends are experienced within diverse demographics, specifically related to race, gender, and socioeconomic status. Further description of how ACEs are experienced within marginalized groups can inform broader policy and preventative interventions. This narrative review explored the national data related to ACEs an...

Ethical gender/sex measurement in Canadian research.
Canadian Psychology / Psychologie canadienne, Vol 63(4), Nov 2022, 536-544; doi:10.1037/cap0000334Current theory and research support the conclusion that gender and the interdependent construct of sex are not binary phenomena. Yet, how well do the measurement practices of Canadian psychologists align with this consensus? Although there are many ways to address this critical question, we take three approaches: (a) to understand cultural norms, we survey the gender/sex options available for national and provincial government identification across Canada; (b) to understand researcher practices, we review the gender/sex demogr...

Synthèse des connaissances portant sur l’identification d’outils permettant la mesure populationnelle du développement des enfants de 2 ans.
Canadian Psychology / Psychologie canadienne, Vol 64(2), May 2023, 107-117; doi:10.1037/cap0000333Since 2012, Quebec has been using the Instrument de mesure du développement de la petite enfance (IMDPE) to establish the developmental profile of 5-year-old children starting kindergarten. The recognized usefulness of this tool by numerous stakeholders as well as government departments has led to the project of developing a similar instrument for younger children (± age 2) to implement early stimulation measures adapted to their needs. In order to identify potential tools that could meet this goal, and in accordance to PRIS...

Teleworking and work–life balance during the COVID-19 pandemic: A scoping review.
Canadian Psychology / Psychologie canadienne, Vol 64(4), Nov 2023, 227-258; doi:10.1037/cap0000330Telework, a work modality that allows employees to work outside the boundaries of an office through information and communication technologies, is rising. As the COVID-19 pandemic imposed social distancing regulations, alternative ways to work are growing in popularity. However, given the rapid growth of telework and the interest by employees to continue using this mode of operation, examination of the available literature is essential to guide future work. The current scoping review aimed to examine the effects of telework on...

The role of culture and social threats in constructing shame: Moving beyond a western lens.
Canadian Psychology / Psychologie canadienne, Vol 64(2), May 2023, 132-143; doi:10.1037/cap0000329The emotion of shame is typically conceptualized through a Western and universalist lens. In this article, we first critically examine competing definitions of shame rooted in the Western traditions and contrast them to conceptualizations of shame rooted in other cultural traditions (e.g., as exemplified by the work of Chinese and Taiwanese researchers). We then explore the critical role of both culture and chronic social threats, such as discrimination, in the social construction of shame. Although current research points to ...

Canadian models of professional training: Past and future.
Models of training for professional psychologists in Canada have developed in uneven stages over the last 75 years. Our first national conference on models of training occurred more than a decade after the seminal U.S. meeting in Boulder, Colorado. In the 20th century, our only national conference with a primary focus on training was at Lake Couchiching, Ontario, in 1965. There have been national conferences where some of the proceedings focused on training, but most of the developments in our training models have resulted from developments in our accreditation standards and recommendations from the Canadian Psychological ...

How algorithmic management influences worker motivation: A self-determination theory perspective.
Algorithmic management (AM) is rapidly spreading across industries and significantly changing the nature of work, thanks to advances in artificial intelligence. Since 2015, the advent of the first publications on this topic, AM has captured and sustained the focus of researchers in the social sciences. This enthusiasm can be explained not only by the rapid expansion of the phenomenon but also by the important issues it raises regarding the influence of management on worker motivation, performance, and well-being. We review the existing literature to identify the known effects of the use of AM on worker motivation, using th...

The psychology of pandemics: Lessons learned for the future.
Pandemics are not simply events in which some harmful microbe “goes viral,” rapidly spreading across the globe. Psychology plays a central role in pandemics, influencing the spreading and containment of diseases, and shaping pandemic-related distress and socially disruptive, divisive, and potentially harmful phenomena such as panic buying, racism, and protests against pandemic mitigation restrictions. Insights from contemporary research, combined with analyses of historical records, offers numerous lessons for planning and managing future pandemics: (1) pandemics are not “once in a lifetime” events; plan for more t...
