This year’s recipient of the Joseph Becker Research Award is Stephanie Brewer, PhD, a Child Track resident in the Psychology Internship Program. The award stimulates quality research by rewarding a psychology resident for independence, creativity and intellectual depth in a research effort. Although clinicians frequently modify evidence-based treatments (EBT) during implementation to improve contextual and cultural fit, little is known about which modifications are commonly made or how they impact clinical outcomes. Dr. Brewer’s mixed methods research will develop a coding system designed to capture the modifications made to EBTs in public sector service settings and apply this coding system to examine which modifications are made to an EBT being implemented within two regional school districts.
