European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations

What is EFPA?

EFPA is the leading Federation of National Psychologists Associations. It provides a forum for European cooperation in a wide range of fields of academic training, psychology practice and research.

There are 37 member associations of EFPA representing about 300,000 psychologists. The member organizations of EFPA are concerned with promoting and improving psychology as a profession and as a discipline, particularly, though not exclusively, in applied settings and with emphasis on the training and research associated with such practice.

The psychologists in the member associations include practitioners as well as academic and research psychologists.

The Federation has as one of its goals the integration of practice with research and the promotion of an integrated discipline of psychology.

What EFPA Does

• Representation, advocacy, and lobbying at European level • Promotion of psychology education, research and profession • EuroPsy certification • Test User Accreditation • Support for Member Associations • European projects • Advice on professional affairs, work areas, new developments • Publicity and information sharing • European Congress of Psychology • European Psychologist (Official Organ of the EFPA, http:// www.hogrefe.com/j/ep) • The EFPA News Magazine (http://efpa.magzmaker.com/)

EFPA Membership

Membership is open to the national psychologist association of all European countries but there may be only one member association per country. EFPA has no individual members.

In countries where there is more than one national psychologist association, the Federation should endeavour to identify the most representative organization and, if appropriate, encourage the development of a national federation in order to promote cooperation among psychological associations.

Membership is determined by the General Assembly upon presentation of the applicant association’s articles, statutes, and code of ethics plus details of the membership (see EFPA Statutes Article 5).

As a European federation representing the interests of psychologists in Europe, EFPA is committed to making contact with member associations of psychologists from European countries, which are not yet members of EFPA.

This is particularly the case in relation to psychologists’ associations from countries in the east of Europe, with whom EFPA is concerned to make contacts, to share information and to promote collaboration.

A member of the EFPA Executive Council has responsibility for developing these links and contacts, and the EC will attempt to help to support initiatives. A full list of all EFPA members associations can be found at http://www.efpa.eu/members

A full list of all EFPA associate members can be found at http://www.efpa.eu/associate-members

Assessment in Health Psychology presents and discusses the best and most appropriate assessment methods and instruments for all specific areas that are central for health psychologists. It also describes the conceptual and methodological bases for assessment in health psychology, as well as the most important current issues and recent progress in methods.

A unique feature of this book, which brings together leading authorities on health psychology assessment, is its emphasis on the bidirectional link between theory and practice.

Assessment in Health Psychology is addressed to masters and doctoral students in health psychology, to all those who teach health psychology, to researchers from other disciplines, including clinical psychology, health promotion, and public health, as well as to health policy makers and other healthcare practitioners.

This latest volume in the series Psychological Assessment – Science and Practice provides a thorough and authoritative record of the best available assessment tools and methods in health psychology, making it an invaluable resource both for students and academics as well as for practitioners in their daily work.

So that’s how my mind works – Now I get it!

“As a fan of PSI theory for more than 20 years, I am very happy seeing it translated for popular consumption! The book makes the theory reasonably simple, with lots of fun illustrations.”

Johannes Storch /Corinne Morgenegg/Maja Storch /Julius Kuhl Now I Get It! Understand Yourself and Take Charge of Your Behavior

2018, vi + 248 pp. US $34.80 / € 27.95 ISBN 978-0-88937-541-3 Also available as eBook

Using the example of four colleagues working together in a small company, Now I Get It! shows us the main personality types and their strengths and weakness in such a way that we gain real “now I get it!” insights into what is going on in our own and others’ subconscious.

How does my mind work and what kind of personality do I have? When we can answer these questions and have come to terms with who we are, then the solutions to many issues that arise in everyday life will fall into place. What sort of people do I get on with best and how can I best deal with the others? Are there recurring stressful situations in my professional or private life, and how do I resolve them?

This humorously written and illustrated book, by the world’s leading experts in personality systems interaction (PSI) theory and the Zurich Resource Model (ZRM), gives us profound insights into our and other people’s subconscious thoughts – so we can adapt our own behavior and interactions to improve our quality of life. Cartoons and worksheets help us on our way.
