The American Psychological Association's (APA's) (American Psychological Association, 2017b; hereinafter referred to as the Ethics Code) does not contain an enforceable standard regarding psychologists' role in either honoring or protecting the free speech of others, or ensuring that their own free speech is protected, including an important corollary of free speech, the protection of academic freedom. Illiberal acts illegitimately restrict civil liberties. We argue that the ethics of illiberal acts have not been adequately scrutinized in the Ethics Code. Psychologists require free speech to properly enact their roles as scientists as well as professionals who wish to advocate for their clients and students to enhance social justice. This article delineates criteria for what ought to be included in the Ethics Code, argues that ethical issues regarding the protection of free speech rights meet these criteria, and proposes language to be added to the Ethics Code.

美国心理协会（APA）的（美国心理协会，2017b；以下简称道德准则）没有关于心理学家在尊重或保护他人言论自由或确保自己言论自由方面的可执行标准，包括言论自由的一个重要推论，即学术自由的保护。不自由的行为不合法地限制公民自由。我们认为，不自由行为的伦理道德在道德准则中没有得到充分审查。心理学家需要言论自由才能正确履行他们作为科学家以及希望为客户和学生倡导社会正义的专业人士的角色。本文阐述了应当包含在道德准则中的标准，认为关于保护言论自由权利的道德问题符合这些标准，并提出了要添加到道德准则中的语言。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2022 APA，保留所有权利）。
