Psychology is becoming increasingly relevant in today’s complex society. News about mental health issues and awareness headline our local media almost daily, with equal answers and commentaries written to discuss and support the psychological defence of our nation. Our Government has also introduced numerous frameworks and initiatives to strengthen our understanding of the multiple psychosocial issues that plague our society, pushing us to become more psychologically resilient.

With that in mind, SPS has decided to establish our own News Room – a repository of carefully-curated articles run by volunteers to help readers and professionals stay updated on current local news about psychology. Our News Room will primarily feature articles from our local news platforms, such as The Straits Times and CNA, and also international news that may affect Singapore. However, as we seek to include as many articles in our News Room, our repository should act as a starting point for readers to be kept updated and not meant to be exhaustive.

We welcome all volunteers to contribute to this News Room. Read on and get psyched!
