Abstract
This article describes the European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations’ (EFPA) support for psychology as a science. Scientific research is an important part of the discipline of psychology, which aims to improve, develop, and help clients. EFPA’s support of psychology as a science is achieved through the European Congresses, awards for scientific excellence, this journal (European Psychologist), and the work of the Standing Committee on Scientific Affairs. All these aspects will be discussed here.
