Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how postdoctoral neuropsychology programs assess competency development and manage underperformance among fellows.
- Most programs (92%) use written evaluations for fellow performance and have documented policies (86%) for handling below-expectation performance, although there is inconsistency in other evaluation methods used.
- The study concludes that implementing standardized competency evaluations and clear policies can improve communication, identify training gaps early, enhance program quality, and offer more support to fellows during their training.
Pediatric Teleneuropsychology: Feasibility and Recommendations.
Arch Clin Neuropsychol
November 2020
Objective: Teleneuropsychology (TeleNP) is a growing and promising practice within the telemedicine landscape that has been well established within the adult neuropsychology literature. This project aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of TeleNP in a pediatric clinical population and disseminate clinical decision-making procedures to guide best practices for pediatric TeleNP.
Method: This project conducted during the 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic reflects the largest clinical cohort to date of TeleNP in a pediatric population (N = 129).
The current study examined medical professionals' behaviors related to reporting medical neglect when a family is noncompliant with follow-up services after a positive newborn screening result. Pediatric medical professionals within an urban medical campus were provided with five case vignettes in relation to different diseases. Medical professionals rated the severity of family noncompliance with follow-up services and indicated whether they would report suspected medical neglect to Child Protective Services (CPS).
