Abstract:

As behavior analysts the opportunity for staff training, mentoring, supervision, collaboration and research are as varied as the situations in which we work. Each of these roles presents ethical challenges. At times these challenges are just quagmires or quandaries, while other times they have the potential for harm. The behavior analyst faces numerous questions every day about the appropriateness of treatment decisions. This panel will address, through an interactive and at times entertaining discussion, how to prevent and remedy unethical behavior analytic practices. Panelists will outline current ethical guidelines while drawing on their experiences and expertise in each of these areas. As a behavior analyst others, usually trained or supervised by you, do much of the actual behavior treatment; however you are ultimately responsible for the programs effectiveness. Panelists will represent issues that arise in everything from early intervention to adult services, community and center based settings as well as academia and private consultation. Attendees will leave the discussion with models for improved conduct and practical strategies that translate into everyday ethical action.
