Dear Geoff,

I have informed Maria Borsca President of the European Family Therapy Association (EFTA) regarding the conference in Philadelphia and  a notice has been posted on the EFTA  newsletter about 3 days ago!

I do not have enough time for a presentation this year but will consider next year for me or my students.

Good luck!

Angela

Hi CaFTR members,

I am interested joining or forming a panel with anyone who has an interest in using the Child Psychotherapy Q-Set (CPQ) or Psychotherapy Process Q-Set (PQS) in exploring psychotherapy process applied to single-case research.  I am attaching the abstracts of two papers I and my colleagues have submitted for publication that could form part of a panel on the CPQ in child single-case research.  I have a student who might want to present her single-case research on three BPD adult patients using the PQS.  So perhaps if I can get one other person or group to submit, we'll have enough for a panel.  Thanks, everyone.

Hi CaFTR members,

I am attaching the 2015 SPR call for submissions.  Please follow the directions carefully when submitting.  It looks as though we have some good ideas for panels from this group so far.

>> problem impact on the child’s everyday life, as well as an increase in
>> prosocial behaviour. For CGAS, an interaction effect was discovered
>> suggesting a larger improvement for younger children (4–6 years) than

>> older children (10–12 years). After therapy, 38% (n 76) achieved
