Ethics

Members of the society are signatories to the Code of Ethics for Psychologists Working in Aotearoa/New Zealand, which was established in 2002 due to the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act 2003.[6][7] Prior to the establishment of the code, each individual professional association for psychologists in New Zealand had their own code of ethics.[8]
