    Call for papers: 40th anniversary of the Canadian Code of Ethics for Psychologists

    The idea of a special issue of Canadian Psychology honouring both the legacy and the enduring value of the Code to psychologists in Canada and around the world was first advanced by the CPA Committee on Ethics. The special issue will provide an opportunity to engage in reflection and analysis of the ethical challenges facing psychology and how our Code serves to embody our values as a discipline and advance our understanding of how to meet our ethical obligations to society. Its message will be one of inspiration. The special issue will be of relevance to Canadian psychologists, students, and supervisees, as well as members of cognate disciplines and consumers of psychological services.

    Call for papers: Contributions of psychological science to understanding and addressing global challenges

    The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a universal call for action focusing on People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace, and Partnership. The agenda sets out 17 interrelated Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a discipline, psychology is uniquely positioned to address pressing problems reflected in the SDGs, including, but not limited to: Human rights, Climate action, Global health and well-being, Responses to international conflict, and Inequalities.

    The idea for this special issue was first advanced by the Canadian Psychological Association / Société canadienne de psychologie International Relations Committee (IRC). The special issue will demonstrate how psychological science and psychologists have contributed to an improved understanding of global challenges as captured in the UN SDGs. It will also provide an opportunity to engage in reflection and analysis of global challenges and solutions in which psychology as a discipline appears to be less visible but stands to make substantive contributions.

    For more information on the special issue and to make a submission, visit here: https://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/cap/contributions-psychological-science-global-challenges

    Submission deadline: December 31, 2023

    Introducing the editor of Canadian Psychology, Dr. Saklofske!

    Don Saklofske, PhD“Psychology journals need to be more than repositories for psychological findings and forums exclusively for psychologists and allied professionals: They must also ensure that what psychology can contribute to society at large is readily transferable to and accessible by the wider public. Thus, the true impact of Canadian Psychology will be not just how psychology as a science and a profession is served by the published articles but also how the world at large is informed about and benefits from the knowledge presented in the journal.”

    —Don Saklofske, PhD

    Introducing the editor of the Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology, Dr. Titone!

    Debra“In addition to preserving its history, I am interested in broadening CJEP’s scope in a few ways. I would like to see submissions that address, among other topics, developmental phenomena, comparative cognition, and cognitive neuroscience approaches, as well as work that advances cognitive theory through the study of diverse populations or applied real-world social or technological challenges. I believe the journal can benefit from the contributions of authors and reviewers who have a wide variety of lived experiences and for their articles to address experimental questions about cognitive or perceptual phenomena that are relevant to these diverse experiences and perspectives.”

    Debra Titone, PhD
    Editor of the Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology
