What is the OPA?
The Oklahoma Psychological
Association (OPA) was founded in 1946 for the purpose of
advancing psychology as a science, profession, and as a means of
promoting human welfare. Today, most of Oklahoma's psychologists
belong to OPA and represent the diversity of psychology in its
scientific, academic, research, and applied aspects. Through OPA,
they work to promote research in psychology, the highest
standards of quality and usefulness of applied psychology, and
the dissemination of psychology to others. These goals are
accomplished through annual conventions, sponsored workshops,
liaison to governmental agencies and bodies, liaison to American
Psychological Association, publications, peer review boards,
continuing education opportunities, research grants, and
community activities.
As a member of OPA, you are entitled to join with psychologists
active in shaping the process of psychology within the State of
Oklahoma. As a Member, you may vote, serve on committees, hold
office, and participate in all OPA-sponsored activities at
reduced rates. You will receive OPA publications, including the
Oklahoma Psychologist, and all other member-oriented mailings.
You will be supporting OPA's efforts to represent psychology
before the Legislature, and to represent psychology in Oklahoma
at the national level.
