The Norwegian Psychological Association (NPF) is a professional society for authorized psychologists in Norway. We organize more than 10 000 members.
Our main pillars are:
1. We advocate psychology, psychological science and evidence-based practice in the society, including government, policy makers, user groups and the general public.
2. We are responsible for the development, quality control and the running of the five-year specialist education for authorized psychologists, with over 4000 participants every year.
3. We are a trade union for all members. We organize and train local, regional and national union representatives. And we take part in negotiations at all levels.
4. Our monthly journal: “Tidsskrift for Norsk psykologforening”, publishes 12 times per year. We are also part owners of “Scandinavian Journal of Psychology”, jointly with the Nordic psychologist associations, and WILEY.
Our mission:
- To safeguard the professional and financial interests of our members in their role as Psychologists.
