“…As a fascinating case study of moral diversity rather than universality, Lindsay (2011) describes the formulation of a European ethics code in psychology in illuminating detail. To begin with: “It was recognized that not all psychological associations across Europe had an ethical code.…”

“…To avoid a universal ethics? Yes, as Lindsay (2011, p.124) writes, care was taken to respect the “fundamental concern that EFPA should develop a European code of ethics not ‘borrow’ one developed in another country, indeed another continent.” In morality, as in other domains of group self-definition, we see already that groups value distinctiveness highly; to adopt the moral values of the other may be actively avoided. After protracted labor, assessment showed that by 2009 only 1/3 of European member states were compliant with the European metacode.…”

This article proposes that all psychologists—and all psychologies—are innately concerned with justice, and yet there is no consensually defined discipline of psychology, and no consensual understanding of social justice. Adopting an intergroup and identity-based model of what is and what should be, we will describe the mechanisms whereby identities and perceptions of justice are formed, contested, and changed over time. We will argue that psychological research and practice have implications for social justice even where—and perhaps especially when—these are not made explicit. Psychology is considered as the product of diverse groups with distinct and evolving identities, and with differential access to resources and power, which dynamically contest different normative perceptions of justice.

“…However, after much dis cussion, they found that the differences primarily related to be havioral rules rather than their ideals. As a result, EFPA developed a document called the Meta-Code o f Ethics in 1995 (revised in 2005), which provided a moral framework or template of ethical principles and values, without behavioral rules (European Feder ation of Psychologists ' Association, 2005;Lindsay, 1996Lindsay, , 2011. Instead, each member country was to ensure that the country's code of ethics contained the ethical principles and values of the Meta-Code and translated them into the behavioral rules most relevant to the country's cultural and politico-legal structures.…”

With the rapid pace of globalization, psychologists internationally are experiencing complex ethical challenges. This paper explores the history and evolution of ethics and multiculturalism and their effect on the development of supervision practices for psychologists in the United States and Canada. Themes include the importance of harmonizing existing ethical rules or standards with professional ideals when responding to cultural diversity; (a) integrating different social contexts and worldviews of client, supervisee/therapist, and supervisor, and (b) responding in a manner that reflects enlightened rather than unilateral globalization-all within the power differential implicit in supervision. Historical and cultural context; (a) international perspectives, ethical guidelines, and codes, (b) evolving supervision guidelines, and (c) developments toward positive solutions are oudined. Recommendations for the future are formulated regarding graduate student/supervisee training, supervisor training, continuing education, and the development of ethical guidelines for supervision.Since the mid 20th century, the pace of globalization has in creased exponentially. Advances in technology, ease of travel, and political events have resulted in increased international communi cation and collaboration as well as large-scale migrations of per sons to various parts of the world (Sinclair, 2012a). As a result, psychologists face new realities and "live in a world where tradi-

“…Between the codes which did exist, differences were noticeable and apparent. The goal of such a Meta-code was to ensure that common standards could be expected of psychologists independent of their home country (Lindsay 2011). The first version of the Meta-Code (1995) has been followed by an amendment in 2005 to make sure it remained fit for purpose over time.…”

This article aims to find the elements that are required for a common ethical approach that is suitable for the different perspectives adopted in integrative biodiversity conservation research. A general reflection on the integrity of research is a priority worldwide, with a common aim to promote good research practice. Beyond the relationship between researcher and research subject, the integrity of research is considered in a broader perspective which entails scientific integrity towards society. In research involving a variety of disciplines and a diversity of legal and ethical frameworks, there is a need of harmony between different sets of values. The notion of congruence (or more pragmatically, alignment) reflects the consistency of ethics in research within the biodiversity conservation's community of researchers. It also bears on the coherence of values shared between the scientific community and society. We examine the notion of research integrity in a broad sense. This examination is to be conducted in relation to the goal of protecting ecological integrity, which is at the core of biodiversity conservation. The notion of integrity constraints should be investigated further to develop a pragmatic response to the need for integrity and congruence in research for biodiversity conservation.
