Ethical Principles and Dilemmas

What situations do psychologists find to be ethically challenging or troubling? The purpose of the study described in “Ethical Dilemmas Encountered by Members of the American Psychological Association” (Pope & Vetter, 1992) was to have a representative sample of then-current APA members describe incidents that they found ethically challenging or troubling. These were collected to be used in possible revisions of the current APA’s Ethics Code. Participants in the study were asked to describe an incident that they or a colleague faced in the past year or two that was ethically challenging or troubling. Some of the incidents described also detail the psychologist’s response to the particular dilemma.

For this Discussion, you will consider whether you agree with the action taken by the psychologist and support your stance using the current version of the APA Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct.

To prepare:

Read APA’s “Ethical principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct” and “Ethical Dilemmas Encountered by Members of the American Psychological Associations” which discuss real scenarios of ethical dilemmas. Then, think about two of the scenarios discussed in the article.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 3 your answer to the following: Choose two ethical dilemmas in the article and the actions taken in response to it. First, choose one wherein you agree with the actions taken by the psychologist. Why do you agree with those actions? Use the APA Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct to support your response. Next, choose an ethical dilemma wherein you disagree with the actions taken by the psychologist. Why do you disagree with those actions? Use the APA Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct to support your response.
