This is the third part of a three part series discussing the Interamerican Society of Psychology (www.sipsych.org), known as SIP (for the acronym of its name in Spanish, Sociedad Interamericana de Psicología) and featuring the Spanish or Portuguese speaking psychologists distinguished with the Interamerican Psychology Award. Every two years, SIP?s board of directors, in consultation with nominations from SIPs membership, grants an award to an English or French speaking psychologist and another to a Spanish or Portuguese speaking psychologist  whose work has advanced psychology as a science and profession in the Americas.The purpose of this series is to advance the dissemination of psychological knowledge generated in Latin America and the Caribbean in an effort to balance the predominant influence and presence of European psychology and, more recently, Asian psychology, in the USA. In the first article of the series (Consoli & Morgan Consoli, 2012), we noted the accomplishments of the first six of the twenty awardees, organized in chronological order: 1976 ? Rogelio Díaz Guerrero, Mexico; 1979 ? Arrigo Ange-lini, Brazil; 1981 ? Jacobo Varela, Uruguay; 1983 ? Rubén Ardila, Colombia; 1985 ? Aroldo Rodrigues, Brazil; 1987 ? Carlos Albizu Miranda, Puerto Rico, awarded posthumously. In the second installment we featured the next six awardees: 1987 ? Emilio Ribes-Iñesta, Mexico; 1989 ? Eduardo Rivera Medina, Puerto Rico; 1991 ? Ignacio Martin Baró, El Salva-dor, awarded posthumously; 1993 ? José Miguel Salazar, Venezuela; 1995 ? Maritza Montero, Venezuela; 1997 ? Rolando Díaz-Loving, Mexico. In this final article we high-light the accomplishments of the most recent eight awardees: 1999 ? Héctor Fernández-Álvarez, Argentina; 2001 ? Silvia Maurer Lane, Brazil; 2003 ? Euclides Sánchez, Venezuela; 2005 ? Irma Serrano-García, Puerto Rico; 2007 ? Isabel Reyes Lagunes, Mexico; 2009 ? José Toro Alfonso, Puerto Rico; 2011 ?
