Abstract: By literature searching, it is found that on August □ 1921 the Chinese Psychological Society (CPS) was founded. After its establishment, the CPS started the first professional journal in Asia, Psychology. A commemorative meeting was held in Beijing and a group photo was taken, and several academic lectures were held in succession. The CPS ceased running in 1927 while reopened on January 24th 1937 in Nanjing, though stopped again half a year later. Thanks to the preparation after 1949, the CPS formally established in August 1955. Acta Psychologica Sinica was founded in November 1956 and stopped in May 1966. In November 1977, the CPS resumed its activities again and embarked on the road of normal development. In May 1978, the Chinese Psychological Society held a professional meeting in Hangzhou to comment on Wundt’s psychology, developmental psychology and educational psychology. As an academic community, the CPS developed along with Chinese society. Since 1977, Chinese psychology has stepped into a period of healthy and rapid development, and it will become an indispensable force on the international psychology stage. Before 1949, most of the development of Chinese was without the existence of in the CPS but relying on the spontaneous cohesion of psychologists and the independent development of psychology departments in Chinese universities. Since early 1950, psychologists were eagerly planning to establish the CPS and saw its establishment in August. However, whether the conference can be regarded as a formal inaugural meeting or not has not been decided by the academic circles and even by the psychologists who had attended the conference themselves. Later, influenced by thoughts reform and the adjustment of colleges and departments, the CPS was not formally established until August 1955. Since then, the CPS has been affiliated with the Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Under political impact, the Institute and the CPS once stopped running. The fate of Chinese psychological society is bound to Chinese psychology, which fluctuates with its rise and fall. In 1977, with the restoration of the Institute, the CPS also officially reopened. In the history of the development of Chinese psychology in the past century, it is not long for Chinese psychological society to exist, especially in the early stage.The development of Chinese psychology mainly depends on the development of its own discipline strength. This discipline autonomy promotes the psychological researchers to advance in the field of psychology, and promotes the construction of disciplines in the Department of psychology in various universities in the country. Since 1977, the Chinese Psychological Society has been playing a leading role in the field of psychology, and has played the functions of organization and coordination in all aspects. For more than 50 years, the CPS has made remarkable achievements and has become an important psychological force on the international stage. At the beginning of the new century, Chinese psychology, as a psychological force with Chinese cultural gene, will make its own contribution in all aspects of national construction.
