An award is given every two years at the national meeting of the American Academy of Psychodynamic Psychiatry and Psychoanalysis to the author(s) of the best article published in Psychodynamic Psychiatry during the preceding two years. This spring, a prize of $2,500 was awarded to Dr. David Mintz for his article “Recovery from Childhood Psychiatric Treatment: Addressing the Meaning of Medications,” published in Psychodynamic Psychiatry, 47(3), 235-256.
