Please review scenario number four in your Bailey and Burch book, on p. 337 and the Model for Ethical Decision Making. In this scenario, Kevin is the primary client and there are multiple ethical issues to consider. Utilizing the content of the scenario, please answer the following questions utilizing part one of the model for ethical decision making:
What triggers your ethical radar in this scenario?
Identify your choice for the primary issue of concern. Include additional stakeholders that are involved in this issue and your reason(s) for identifying these individuals.
What are the appropriate standards in the code that address this situation?
What solutions can you brainstorm that ensure you behave with integrity? What solutions does the code suggest?
How does what you learned about yourself, and your biases, in the implicit tests and from your personality screen from Unit 1 impact on your thought processes? Please attend to information derived from both.
Previous unit 1
Discuss your experience in taking the implicit association tests and what you discovered about yourself in each discrete category. What were your natural strengths, and where do you see opportunities for growth and more self-awareness?
When I was choosing “e” or “i,” I was unsure how the Implicit Association Test (IAT) would be able to detect my biases in each area since I had never heard of it or done it before. However, one aspect of the exam that I liked was that it gave you results after completing it; however, I’m not sure whether the findings were 100 percent correct. I’ll confess that several of the test results took me by surprise, and that was one of them. According to the results of the Gender-Profession test, which I chose, it was advised that males have a “strong automatic relationship with career.” In contrast, females have a “strong instinctive association with the family.” Because I was raised in a typical home where my father and mother worked, I am particularly vulnerable to gender prejudice. My mother has always pushed me to put effort and not rely on a guy for my well-being. I feel there are questions on hidden biases in the exam. According to the Disability test, “high automatic associations for abled people over handicapped people” were found, another startling finding. It has been said that I have tremendous tolerance and am compassionate toward patients when dealing with them.
I work in ABA, and some of my clients are confined to wheelchairs or orthotics for assistance; nonetheless, I have never shown any bias against them. It was discovered that there was “no preference between young and elderly persons” in the Age test findings. I have worked with various clients over the last nine years, including children, young people, and older folks, and one thing I have learned is to be patient and sensitive to their needs (Project implicit n.d.). On the topic of Sexuality, I see a lot of potential for personal growth and self-awareness development. According to the researchers, the findings indicated a “moderate instinctive preference for heterosexual persons over LGBT people,”. I have nothing against LGBT individuals; one of my high school friends is a lesbian. Despite our religious views being opposed, I have always attempted to maintain a neutral and non-judgmental attitude. I’ve never worked with an LGBT client, but if I ever do, I want to be more sensitive to their needs, rather than focusing on their sexual orientation, and embrace them, in the same way I would any other group.
Discuss your results from the Personality Test. What did you learn about yourself? How will this apply to your self-awareness and development as an ethical practitioner?
According to the personality test results, I am an ISFJ-T personality type, which means I am a “defender.” My personality qualities suggest that I’m 67 percent introverted, 54 percent observant, 65 percent feeling, 60 percent judgmental, and 65 percent tumultuous, among other things. I believe we can agree. I am a quiet and sensitive person who does not like being the focus of attention, and I do not enjoy being the center of attention. According to others, my analytical ability, strong listening skills, and kindness and humility toward others have complimented me. Also, it is difficult for me to say “no” and continue to accept the responsibility or to say “yes” to favors even though the task is excessive. My mother has always informed me that it is perfectly OK to say “no” and that I should always come first in everything. Becoming a good listener and possessing solid analytical talents will assist me in becoming a successful BCBA, as will my ability to support the client’s needs and display honesty.
What is the relationship between the American Psychological Association (APA) Code of Ethics and the field of behavior analysis? How does the concept of normative ethics presented by O’Donohue and Ferguson (2011) inform this relationship?
Both the American Psychological Association (APA) and the Association for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) must observe and comply with the rules set out by the latter organization. The American Bar Association’s ethical codes were derived from the American Psychological Association’s codes of ethics. Before any legal action is taken, the American Bar Association is responsible for upholding the ethical standards. The American Psychological Association is accountable for understanding what is ethical and not abusing the rules or violating client rights. Personal moral conduct constitutes normative ethics. It is necessary to develop rules for the moral path of action and methods for responding to reasonable inquiries.
