The president and CEO of the American Psychological Association rejected the findings of a House report on Jew-hatred in the association, telling colleagues on Thursday that the APA has “held listening sessions” with Jewish psychologists. “The APA’s actions not only create a harmful environment for Jewish members but also raise broader concerns about the profession,” a House Committee on Education and Workforce spokesperson told JNS. “When an organization responsible for accrediting psychology programs and shaping professional standards allows ideology to overshadow scholarship, it risks undermining the credibility of the entire field,” the spokesperson said.
