Locate and bring to our session information about one professional organization (e.g., APA, Division 7) relevant to developmental psychology or your dissertation research topic. Be prepared to discuss the following during Colloquium 3:  a. The organization’s relevance to developmental psychology/your research topic and its contribution to the field  b. The advantages of joining a professional organization   c. Student membership fees (if any)  d. Some supportive resources provided by the organization  e. The goals of the organization’s conference/meetings (e.g., initiatives, topics, themes)  f. What research topics (if any) are of particular interest to the organization  For Colloquium 4 : 2. Review the vignette assigned to you (see below) and be prepared to share your thoughts about the vignette during Colloquium 4. If by chance you are assigned a vignette that you had discussed in a previous residency, please contact me so I can assign you to a group with a different vignette.    3. When you get to the Professional Development Session, you will be working in a small group with those classmates assigned to the same group as you, as noted in the attached assignment list.  Over the course of these two days, your group will examine the roles of professional organizations as well as the professional activities that are common among developmental psychologists.     The primary objective of the Professional Development Colloquium 3 and Colloquium 4 is for you to develop as a scholar-practitioner within the discipline of developmental psychology by analyzing certain key aspects (e.g., contemporary research trends, professional career paths, the application of scientific knowledge to societal change, etc.) relevant to the field.     Colloquium 3 will have two primary activities:   
1. Faculty will provide an overview of the field of developmental psychology and examples of career options that cover a range of developmental phenomena.    2. You will break into small groups and briefly discuss professional organizations relevant to developmental psychology. Your goal is to learn about a professional organization in sufficient detail within your group, getting feedback from one another about the advantages of joining a professional organization, research trends, resources, etc. You will report your group’s overall findings to the class following your discussion.    Colloquium 4 will have two activities:     1. You will meet with your assigned group and discuss your findings related to the vignette that your group was assigned. In addition, as a group, you will develop a vignette appropriate for future Developmental Psychology Residency students.    2. Each group will make a presentation to the larger group about key takeaways from their group’s vignette discussion, then will present the vignette they developed for future students, leaving time for comments and questions from other students and faculty. Be sure to include the implications that the vignettes, and professional skills required to address them, have for social change.   October 2023 Virtual Residency: Developmental Psychology Colloquium 3 & 4 Vignettes    A. You are an internationally renowned researcher who focuses on attachment in infancy. You have been invited to give a lecture to a group of new parents at a community center in New York City. The parents are not only new parents, but they are new immigrants to the United States and want the best for their newborn. Knowing that they come from diverse cultures around the world, what do you teach them about attachment? What does the developmental literature tell us that is ‘universal’ and what is ‘culturally specific’? What can/should they do (if anything) to facilitate healthy attachments?  Group I will be working with: Brooke Fennell LaToya Glenn Natasha Holmes
