“…Also unchanged is the language in Standard 10.05 (formerly Standard 4.05): "Psychologists do not engage in sexual intimacies with current therapy/ patients." According to Knapp et al (2017), "This is one of the few absolute statements in the APA Ethics Code" (p. 115). Thus, there is no room and no need for psychologists to use clinical judgment in deciding whether or not to have a sexual relationship with a client/patient.…”

The treatment of therapists' sexual behavior in the American Psychological Association's (APA's; 2017) Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct (hereinafter, APA Ethics Code) and various state statutes reflects the values and priorities of the profession at the time and represents some of the association's most labored and conflicted decisions. Ambiguity often characterizes the development of APA Ethics Code revisions, particularly on sexual behavior. All psychologists do not share the definition of ethical behavior, the purpose of an ethics code, or acceptance of public accountability. Components of ethics include (a) virtue ethics referencing character, morality, integrity, respect for others, and values; (b) principle ethics in the form of a code of conduct that guides professional behavior; and (c) an educational tool to facilitate decision making. Psychologists may adopt one or more or none of these aspects of ethics, resulting in the ambiguity with which the inclusion of sexual misconduct has evolved in the APA Ethics Code and in legal statutes.This chapter presents the development of the topic of sexual misconduct in the APA Ethics Code from its inception to the present.

“…A better method recommended to achieve the highest standards of professional conduct is the “positive ethics” approach. 34 This can be accomplished by applying the ethical principles proactively in routine clinical practice by anticipating ethical challenges, avoiding potential ethical misconducts, and addressing the ethical challenges appropriately when they are anticipated or encountered. 35…”

“…Ethics generally refer to a system of values that informs an individual's behavior (Jacob et al, 2016). In contrast, applied or professional ethics refer to the application of those ethics to a specialized profession (Knapp et al, 2017).

A 30-Year Systematic Review of Professional Ethics and Teacher Preparation

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Professional ethics in teacher preparation is an area that has received minimal attention in the special education literature. In this systematic review, 18 journals affiliated with the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) were examined for their coverage of professional ethics over a 30-year period (1988–2018). Results showed that an average of about two articles were published each year on professional ethics and that the majority of the articles were nonempirical academic papers. Only 14% of the articles referenced the CEC’s Code of Ethics and/or Standards for Professional Practice. More than 40% of the articles addressing professional ethics acknowledged ethical issues related to teacher preparation, yet there were no empirical studies conducted with preservice special education teachers. Future directions for research and practice are discussed.
