| Abstract: | Presents a citation for the 1981 CPA Award for Distinguished Contribution to Psychology as a Profession recipient, Park Olof Davidson. While Dr. Davidson's contributions to academic clinical and community psychology were significant, it was the leadership, wise counsel and guidance he provided for professional psychology and psychologists across the nation that set him apart from his confreres. For example, in Alberta and British Columbia, he was President and Member of the Board of Directors of the respective provincial associations. Nationally, Dr. Davidson served CPA as President, ACPAP as Chairman, and both initiated and acted as the Coordinator of the Canadian Counsel of Clinical Program Directors.
