Issues to be mediated

  • What degree of prominence should we give to the views of the advocacy group Advocates for Children in Therapy on Attachment Therapy?
  • Is it appropriate to say (in Advocates for Children in Therapy) that certain groups "have not taken positions on ACT's work, nor is there any evidence that those groups use ACT's materials; although these groups do seek and use input from various other advocacy groups"?
  • Should we say that Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP) is "grounded in the works of Bowlby" without attributing this assertion to the researcher who made it?
  • How should we negotiate the ambiguity of the definition of "attachment therapy"?
  • Should the Advocates for Children in Therapy article say the leaders are unlicensed mental health practitioners?
  • Is it appropriate to claim there are 'very few' practitioners of attachment therapy on the basis of a list of organisations that have made position statements against it?
  • Should we write that Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy and Theraplay are "effective and evidence based" without attributing these assertion to the researchers who have made them?
  • How should we handle the question of whether or not DDP satisfies various practice guidelines?
  • How should we present the conclusions of the recent Craven and Lee paper?
  • How should we present the conclusions of the reply to letters by Chaffin et al.?
  • There are several articles, not listed above, that contain some of the assertions named above about DDP (John Bowlby, Adoption, etc..). Which of these articles should mention DDP and what should they say with respect to efficacy and evidence-base?

Additional issues to be mediated

  • Conflicts of interest and financial involvements regarding User:Mercer and User:Sarner, leaders of ACT. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RalphLender (talk • contribs)
  • Citations to materials by Dr. Arthur Becker-Weidman and contributions by Dr. Becker-Weidman to these pages. Dr. Becker-Weidman runs a commercial therapy practice specializing in Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (http://www.center4familydevelop.com/), and any reliance on his work needs to take into account his financial interests in this therapy.

  • Is it appropriate alter a quotation from one source by a few words for the purpose of either attaching another source to it, or to alter the meaning of the quotation? Fainites 20:50, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
  • When issues have been previously mediated and resolved can the same/similiar group of individuals raise the same set of issues again? See: ], ], ], ] RalphLender 21:01, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
  • How to mediate when one editor of the group (Fainites, Sarner, Mercer, FatherTree, Shotwell, StokerAce, & Maypole) involved user:FatherTree makes false accusations, "He isn't? Doesn't he (referring to Dr. Becker-Weidman) go by the name DPeterson here? FatherTree 15:39, 22 May 2007 (UTC)" ] knowingly ] ].
  • What is the Wiki meaning of "consensus" and can it be used to irrevocably lock in demonstrable inaccuracies. Larry Sarner 06:47, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • What weight and influce do single-purpose accounts (sometimes called meat puppets) have in this process? DPeterson 12:06, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • When editors work in concert, communicating with each other regarding approahes and strategies, how is that to be viewed and what weight should then be given to each individual member of such a group? RalphLender 20:44, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Should the use of direct quotations, other citations, and references (e.g. in press publications) follow the criteria of print publications, for example APA style?Jean Mercer 21:31, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
