APS split from APA edit

Apsweaver, as I understand it, the APS was founded by psychologists who left the APA because they believed that psychotherapies should be evidence-based.

They believed the APA had members who were practicing therapies that were not evidence-based, that had sometimes been demonstrated to be ineffective in randomized trials, and had sometimes even been demonstrated to be harmful.

They wanted the APA to condemn these therapies, and the APA wouldn't do so.

Is that true? --Nbauman (talk) 16:41, 14 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Nbauman, APS was formed by a group of psychologists who believe that all psychological research should be based in science (including treatments). Apsweaver (talk) 16:17, 15 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
