Code of Ethics and Conduct (2018)

This code, which has been produced by the Ethics Committee of the British Psychological Society, focusses on four primary ethical principles:

• respect
• competence
• responsibility
• integrity

Each of these principles is described by a statement of key values and accompanied by a set of standards which lay out the precise forms of ethical conduct and behaviour which The Society expects of its members.
