ETHICS IN PLAIN ENGLISH
An Illustrative Casebook for Psychologists, 2nd Edition
Thomas F. Nagy
American Psychological Association, 2005
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The reader will learn general principles of ethical decision making, ethics of professional competence, human relations, privacy and confidentiality, advertising and other public statements, record keeping and fees, education and training, research and publication, assessment, and therapy.
Ethics in Plain English is a practical and engaging resource that shows psychologists how to apply the principles of APA's Ethics Code to the ethical dilemmas that they encounter in their daily lives. This second edition is consistent with the newly revised standards of the APA Ethics Code (2002). Each ethical standard is reproduced in its entirety. Then it is translated into everyday language and is followed by a fictional case study that illustrates, in an entertaining way, how the standard might be applied to a real-life situation. Examples of both problematic and exemplary behavior in diverse settings are provided. It contains thought-provoking questions after each case study, making the book even more useful for self study.
Thomas F. Nagy, Ph.D., is in private practice in Palo Alto, California, and was chair of the APA Task Force that revised the Ethical Principles for Psychologists.
