Which of the following activities does NOT contribute to the accrual of contact hours?

The activity that does not contribute to the accrual of contact hours is mentoring other psychologists. Continuing education requirements for psychologists often focus on structured learning experiences that have been formally organized and evaluated, such as workshops and home study courses.

While mentoring can be a valuable professional activity that enhances skills and knowledge, it typically does not meet the formal criteria set by licensing boards for accruing contact hours. Contact hours are usually accumulated through activities that provide direct education, training, or instruction, which are structured and sometimes require pre-approval from a governing body. Thus, while mentoring others is beneficial for the profession and for individual development, it does not fall under the category of accredited professional development activities that contribute to the required contact hours for licensure renewal.
