Summary
"Ethical Conflicts in Psychology" is designed to help present and future psychologists become more considerate, critical, and skeptical about their own behavior and the ethical constraints under which they work. The author reviews sanctioned ethics codes and procedural guidelines of the American Psychological Association and then presents material focusing on substantive ethical issues for scientists, practitioners, and academicians alike. Topics addressed range from how ethics are best learned and integrated to such knotty issues as confidentiality, privilege, and privacy; multiple relationships; assessment; research, teaching, and supervison; forensics; and the business of practice.
