Yes, exactly.  In my view APAs primary interest is identical to that of any
agricultural, pharmaceutical, or other special interest lobby group--to
advance the financial standings and power of the psychology industry,
primarily its clinical practice wing.

I doubt it's declared as such in their
> charter and bylaws.

    Yes, well, the actual purpose of the Departmen of Agriculture is not
specifically stated in its by-laws either.  See Marion Nestle's magnificent
and eye-opening "Food Politics."
