Professional societies - psychology and law
Psychology and Law Societies
One of the most frequent questions we receive is about the opportunities to join professional societies on psychology and the law in Australia. We compiled a list – it’s a short list – of some of the most relevant Australian societies and for good measure, added on some of our favourite international societies.
Many of these publish their own in-house journals (typically free to members), publish blogs, hold conferences, or simply have interesting websites (some of which were updated in the last 12 months!!).
Staff at Forensii are members of most of these organisations (we like to network!) and have found membership of each of them to be worthwhile.
Australian organisations
Australian and New Zealand Association of Psychiatry, Psychology and Law (ANZAPPL).
Australia & New Zealand Society of Evidence Based Policing (ANZSEBP).
International organisations
American Psychology Association (APA) - Division 41 American Psychology-Law Society (can be joined directly without membership of the APA)
International Association of Applied Psychology (IAAP) – Division 10 Psychology and Law.
International Investigative Interviewing Research Group (iIIRG).

I’d love to hear what you think about this post. Are there other societies you can recommend? Any we should avoid?
