Division 40 of the American Psychological Association, the Division of Clinical Neuropsychology, is a scientific and professional organization of psychologists interested in the study of brain-behavior relationships, and the clinical application of that knowledge to human problems. Division 40 promotes the use of scientific research to develop its knowledge base and clinical techniques. It is active in the development and promotion of quality standards of professional training and practice.



Welcome to the home page for the Division of Clinical Neuropsychology (Division 40) of the American Psychological Association (APA)! This is an unprecedented time in the field of neuropsychology, and our Division is actively engaged on many fronts, including issues related to practice, science, education, and policy. As the largest division of the APA, we are well-positioned to expand the visibility of neuropsychology in the public eye, to help shape healthcare reform, and to contribute to advances in the neurosciences. We are a division that represents the ideals of the traditional scientist-practitioner model of psychology.

In addition to our outstanding educational programs at the annual APA convention (Alert: August 2013 is in Honolulu - mark your calendars & alert your families and colleagues now!), D40 is involved in an array of activities to promote neuropsychology as a specialty. We are particularly interested in providing information, guidance and learning opportunities for students, postdoctoral residents, and early career psychologists with interests in neuropsychology. We aim to foster and protect the practice of clinical neuropsychology, advance the science of brain-behavior relationships, and increase awareness of this exciting specialty, working with other neuropsychological organizations and divisions within APA that share similar and overlapping interests.

Membership in Division 40 expresses your interest in the exciting and diverse field of neuropsychology, and membership is now open to individuals who are not members of APA, via the Professional Affiliate category of membership. Please explore the website to learn more about D40, and stay tuned to our media outlets (i.e., this site, our listserve, Facebook, Twitter) for useful links, updates, and announcements. Please join me as a member of this dynamic and growing Division of APA, get involved in D40 activities, and I look forward to seeing you at the 2013 meeting in Hawaii!
