Professional ethics is one of the essential factors needed by psychologists in order to provide their clients with high quality service and to be regarded as a professional. In this study, the psychologists'ethical codes, as well as articles on professional ethics were reviewed. There are studies about the psychologists'beliefs and behaviors in the case of an ethical dilemma, ethical decision making models and ethical training programs; however, it was found that most of the models and training programs were not assessed empirically. In addition, since the argument about psychologists'ethics in Japan were started quite recently, compared to other countries, neither the codes or research have been discussed enough. This review indicated that we need to clarify "what it is to be ethical" by continuing doing research and holding discussions.
