A task force of the American Psychological Association has concluded there is no significant evidence that a single elective abortion increases the risk of mental health problems for adult women.

The draft Report of the APA Task Force on Mental Health and Abortion is dated 13 August 2008 and was published online on the APA website on 18th August. It was presented to the APA's governing Council of Representatives at the association's Annual Convention in Boston which finished on Sunday.
