Sage Publications, 2003
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The reader will be able to use ethical principles and standards to conduct their work morally, avoid ethical violations, and preserve and protect the rights and welfare of those they serve.
This book introduces psychologists to the 2002 American Psychological Association’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. It helps psychologists apply the Ethics Code to the constantly changing scientific, professional, and legal realities of the discipline. It addresses the revised format, choice of wording, aspirational rationale, and enforceability of the code.

She chaired the APA’s Ethics Code Task Force, the committee that revised the code, reviewing more than 1,300 comments and several legal reviews over a five-year period.
