Washington, DC-September 17, 2008
On September 17, 2008, the APA announced that its members had passed a referendum making it a violation of APA policy for psychologists to participate in interrogations or provide consultation to interrogation teams at U.S. national security detention centers operating outside of or in violation of international law or the US Constitution. Passage of the referendum was the culmination of years of efforts by its proponents. Voter turnout is thought to be amongst the highest in APA history. In 2005, the psychologists association adopted a position that said, for national security purposes, it was ethical to act as consultants for interrogation and information-gathering. APA had encouraged engagement in the interrogation process by psychologists, on the grounds that psychologists have expertise to lend and ought to assist in the country's violence risk assessments and anti-terrorism efforts. The APA had already banned its members from participating in any of 19 interrogation techniques, including the use of hoods, forced nakedness, and waterboarding.
