SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn - Developing a Working Knowledge of Visual Response T
 ime (VRT) Technologies (Abel & LOOK)
DESCRIPTION:Staying current with the research is important\, but it can be 
 overwhelming—MIATSA is here to help.\n\nJoin us for the MIATSA Lunch &am
 p\; Learn Series\, a free\, one-hour training that dives into curated scho
 larly articles\, books\, and evidence-based practices focused on sexual ab
 use prevention and supervision. Through collaborative discussion with peer
 s\, you'll leave each session with concrete\, research-backed strategies y
 ou can apply in your work.\n\nLet’s grow and learn—together.\n\nThis m
 onth\, we'll be reviewing the 2024 article "The Viewing Reaction Time as D
 iagnostic Tool of Pedohebephilia in the Dunkelfeld" by Amelung\, Konrad\, 
 Beier\, &amp\; Lehmann. Archives of Sexual Behavior (53)\, 25-42.\n\nOn Tu
 esday\, October 20\, 2026\n\n12:00-1:00pm\n\nLunch &amp\; Learn Series\n v
 ia Zoom|  Free |  1 hour of training credit (not a CEU\, but can count 
 toward MDOC contract hours)\n\nWhat to Expect:\n\n 	Discussion of key find
 ings from leading research\n 	Application of insights to real-world superv
 ision and treatment contexts\n 	Peer-based conversation and support\n\nLea
 rning Objectives:\n\n 	Develop a working knowledge of Visual Response Time
  (VRT) technologies\, including the LOOK Assessment and Abel Assessment\, 
 and their underlying empirical foundations.\n 	Understand the strengths\, 
 limitations\, and psychometric considerations associated with VRT-based me
 asures of sexual interest.\n 	Recognize appropriate clinical\, forensic\, 
 and risk assessment contexts for the use of VRT instruments.\n 	Apply esta
 blished guidelines for the interpretation and communication of VRT finding
 s as one component of a comprehensive psychosexual assessment.\n 	Differen
 tiate between the assessment of sexual interests\, sexual behavior history
 \, and risk-related factors when incorporating VRT results into clinical d
 ecision-making.\n\nMIATSA Membership is not required.\n\nPlease register b
