"Self-esteem and self-respect are two concepts which seem very similar, but the
differences between them are crucial, according to some psychologists. While our culture is concerned with matters of self-esteem, self-respect may be considered to hold the key to achieving the peace of mind we seek.
Ellen Langer, a professor of psychology at Harvard University, believes that
evaluation gets us into trouble because while sometimes we win, we also sometimes lose.To esteem anything is to evaluate it positively and hold it in high regard. To respect something is to accept it.The person with self-respect simply likes herself/himself. This self-respect is not contingent on success because there are always failures to contend with. Neither is it a result of comparing ourselves with others because there is always someone better. Ellen Langer thinks that these are tactics usually employed to increase self-esteem. Self-respect, however, is a given. We simply like ourselves or we don’t. With self-respect we like ourselves because of who we are and not because of what we can or cannot do."
All psychologists believe that self-esteem and self-respect are almost the same. FALSE

“Is there such thing as the perfect face? Is beauty something you can measure?
Recent scientific evidence suggests that the answer is ‘yes’. A new science, the
science of attraction, has come to the conclusion that beauty is objective and
quantifiable and not, as the romantics believe, in the eye of the beholder.
For more than a century it was believed that a beautiful face was appealing because
it was a collection of average features. Using a computer system, scientists have
challenged the theory. The conclusion was that the most attractive shape was not
average. If you look at famous film stars and supermodels, most of them have ideal
features – larger than natural eyes, higher arched eyebrows, slightly smaller noses,
cheekbones are a little more prominent. Even popular cartoon characters such as Betty
Boop, Yasmin from ‘Aladdin’ and Bambi have big eyes, small turned-up noses, big
mouths and small chins. And if these features are exaggerated, the attractiveness rating
goes up even more. Julia Roberts is a good example of this.”

“Psychologists shall not allow their professional responsibilities or standards of practice to
be diminished by considerations of religion, sex, race, age, nationality, party politics,
social standing, class, self-interest or other extraneous factors and shall refrain from
practice when their physical or psychological condition, as a result of for example alcohol,
drugs, illness or personal stress, is such that abilities or professional judgement are
seriously impaired.”
Religion, sex, race, age, nationality, party politics, social standing, class, and self-interest
are important factors that should be taken into consideration by psychologists in their
professional activities. FALSE
“The American Psychological Foundation (APF) was established in 1953 to promote psychology
and to help extend its benefits to the public. Today, APF promotes the practice and the science of
psychology through scholarships that encourage the best and brightest, through research grants
and innovative programs in psychology that shed light on some of society's most pressing
concerns, and through awards that inspire continued excellence among practitioners, clinicians,
and researchers.
Through the years, APF has been supporting crucial research and programs on some of the most
pressing issues that our society faces today: the understanding and prevention of violence; serious mental illness; the elimination of prejudice, such as homophobia; the understanding and
encouragement of giftedness in children and adolescents; and the relationship between emotions,
motivation, and personality.”(from www.apa.org/about )

“Under the terms of its Royal Charter, the Society is required to ‘maintain a code of
conduct’. In 1985 the Society adopted a code of conduct prior to the introduction of the
Register of Chartered Psychologists with provision for an Investigatory Committee and
Disciplinary Board to consider complaints of professional misconduct against members of
the Society. In the light of experience dealing with several dozen allegations of misconduct these committees recommended some amendments to the code. After extensive consultations a revised Code of Conduct was approved by the Council in February 1993 and adopted forthwith. Statute 15 states that a Disciplinary Committee shall be ‘guided by the Code of Conduct, but that mention or lack of mention in the Code of Conduct of a particular act or omission shall not be taken as conclusive on any question of professional conduct’. Nevertheless, the Code sets out certain minimum standards for conduct with which psychologists are required to comply.”
The Code includes moral principles for both the Disciplinary Committee and psychologists. TRUE
“With over 40,000 members, The British Psychological Society (BPS) is the representative body for psychologist and psychology in the UK. It has a central contribution to make to all aspects of public life, in areas such as education, health, the
economy, industry and social justice. By its Royal Charter the Society is charged with national responsibility for the development, promotion and application of psychology for the public good.
The BPS’s three major aims are:
- to encourage the development of psychology as a scientific discipline and an applied
profession;
- to raise standards of training and practice in the application of psychology;
- to raise public awareness of psychology and increase the influence of psychological
practice in society.”

Charles Myers suggested that The British Psychological Society should support sections for specialised aspects of applied psychology, noting that medical, industrial and educational psychology groups were already moving to establish separate organizations.Following the acceptance of his proposal that anyone merely 'interested in psychology' (not just recognised scholars or teachers) should be allowed to join, by the end of 1920
membership had increased to over 600. C. Myers was duly elected the Society's first
President. The 1919 reforms brought 'a welcome release from the genteel penury of the past' (Lovie, 2001). As the century continued, opportunities increased for psychologists working in more areas of life, including health, education, work and the law. The Society
restructured a number of times, forming various Divisions, Boards, committees and sub-systems to accommodate members' many interests.

Ellen Langer, a professor of psychology at Harvard University, believes that evaluation gets us into trouble because while sometimes we win, we also sometimes lose.To esteem anything is to evaluate it positively and hold it in high regard. To respect something is to accept it. Ellen Langer’s recent research, with Judith White and Johnny Walsch at Harvard University, points to the advantages of self-respect. Compared to those with high self-esteem who are still caught in an evaluative framework, those with self-respect are less prone to blame, guilt, regret, lies, secrets and stress. Their conclusion: “if we gave up self-evaluation, we could have more life before death.”

resolved 'that only those who are recognised teachers in some branch of psychology or who have published work of recognisable value be eligible as members'. In 1906 the name of the society became The British Psychological Society. A register of professional
psychologists was set up in the 1930s. The Society was incorporated in 1941. The
Quarterly Bulletin of the British Psychological Society was launched in 1948. Its editor
was Frederick Laws, a journalist with the News Chronicle.
