ABSTRACT
Throughout history, different endeavours and initiatives by institutional organizations throughout the world have struggled to define right and wrong behaviour for professionals. The history of this struggle and its current manifestations have been shaped by the changes in society and its various structures, values, and expectations. Ethics is considered one of the major challenges and has received attention for some time among consultants and practitioners, as well as researchers and scholars in the field of sport, exercise, and performance psychology. The practice of sport psychology is characterized by several specificities directly linked to the contexts in which it is performed. For the development of a functioning relationship between the psychologist, his or her client, research participants, and colleagues, integrity is a key characteristic. Sport psychologists, like all the other practitioners in various action fields, seek to promote accuracy, honesty, loyalty, transparency, autonomy, equity, and truthfulness in their practice.
