The British Psychological Society
1. Background
The revised Society
Ethical Principles for Conducting Research with
Human Participants
were published in 1990. This was a widely used
document; many institutions and research funding bodies have used
it to inform their own research ethics policies and practices. Since
that time, additional supplementary guidance documents have also
been published to support members conducting research in
numerous different contexts. The Society appreciates that the
understandings of ethics in research are constantly developing; in
addition, other changes with significance for research ethics, such as
the advent of the statutory regulation of professional psychological
services by the Health Professions Council, have taken place. The
revisions of the Society’s own
Code of Ethics and Conduct
(2006, 2009)
have also influenced thinking in this area. For these reasons, this
Code
has been produced.
The Working Party, Ethics Committee and Research Board thank all
those people who were involved in its creation (see
Acknowledgements at the back of this document) and encourage
individuals and departments to use it as a resource for their own
thinking and the continued development of ethical behaviour in
psychological research.
