| Abstract: | We played significant roles in the development of the APA Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Boys and Men (American Psychological Association, 2018). We address Christopher J. Ferguson's critique of the Guidelines, making six points: Criticisms of the Guidelines Tend to Reflect Anti-Feminist and Gender Essentialist Perspectives; The Guidelines Followed All Rules and Regulations Set Forth by the APA; The Guidelines Are Routinely Mischaracterized and Distorted By People Who Disagree with Them; APA Guidelines Are not Research Reports, Systematic Reviews, or Meta-Analyses; Ferguson Conflates Men With Masculinity; and Ferguson Makes Bold Claims Without Justification or a Familiarity with the Field. |
