Abstract

GMH poster competition. Thirty-two mental health providers completed the Evidence-Based Practice Attitude Scale (EBPAS; Aarons, 2004) before and after a 4-day Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) workshop in Lebanon. Overall, the providers viewed evidence-based practices (EBPs) positively. Clinical psychologists’ attitudes towards EBPs significantly improved post-workshop.
