Psychologists explore human behavior using scientific methods. The survey method is the most cost efficient research methods psychologists use. Clinical psychology research papers, including most research articles published by the Korean Journal of Clinical Psychology, frequently employ this method, which includes psychological assessment tools. However, the survey method is regulated by several laws, such as the research ethics law, bioethics law, copyright law, and privacy law. The whole structure and every elements of a survey comprise the expressions that are protected by the copyright law and the respondents of the survey are human subjects who are protected by the bioethics laws. The collected data in the survey contain personal information protected by the privacy law, and the resultant research paper is governed by the research ethics law. This study examined these laws from clinical psychologists’ perspective. Although ethics should encompass most laws, the ethical principles for the Korean Association of Clinical Psychology were poorly connected to related laws; the code of conduct are unclear and inconsistent compared to related laws, and they do not represent the core concept and general principles of Ethics (respect for human dignity and integrity). A comprehensive, active revision of the ethics laws for clinical psychologists is required to match the trends of related laws; furthermore, proactive action and discussion among psychologists is needed.
