Proceedings of the American Psychological Association, Incorporated, for the year 1986: Minutes of the annual meeting of the Council of Representatives: August 21 and 24, 1986, and February 6-8, 1987 Washington, D.C.

These minutes constitute the official record of actions of the Association taken during the year, by both the Board of Directors and the Council of Representatives. The roll of representatives was called at each meeting, and more than a quorum answered to their names. Reference is made in these minutes to various reports, some of which will be published elsewhere. Copies of these reports were distributed to the Council and are on file in the Central Office. As long as the supply lasts, extra copies of many of the reports are available from the Central Office. The Board of Directors held seven official meetings during this Association year. All substantive actions of the Board were reported to the Council and are included in these minutes. Further details of the Board's actions are to be found in the minutes of each meeting. As in previous years, these minutes are arranged in topical rather than chronological order, and subheadings are used when appropriate. The main topical headings are I, Minutes of Meetings in 1986-1987; II, Elections, Awards, Membership, and Human Resources: III, Ethics; IV, Board of Directors; V, Divisions and State Associations; VI, Organization of the APA; VII, Publications and Communications; VIII, Convention Affairs; IX, Educational Affairs; X, Professional Affairs; XI, Scientific Affairs; XII, Social and Ethical Responsibility for Psychology; XIII, Ethnic Minority Affairs; XIV, International Affairs; XV, Central Office; XVI, Financial Affairs; and XVII, Communications Concerning Outside Organizations.
