Workshop Description:
Psychologists strive to provide high quality, ethical care. Most psychologists enter the field to help others. It is counterintuitive to believe that bright, well-meaning, and intelligent individuals would have blindspots and biases.
Blindspots and biases are created by multiple factors. In this presentation, we will review developmental, emotional, and cognitive biases related to ethical decision-making. We will look at ways to debias, as well as to decrease errors due to blindspots.
Learning Objectives:
1. Outline two strategies to optimize ethical decision-making skills;
2. Delineate the differences between a separated and assimilated strategies; and,
3. List one emotional and one cognitive variable that can adversely affect decision-making.
Program Standards and Goals:
This program meets APA’s continuing education Standard 1.2:
Program content focuses on ethical, legal, statutory or regulatory policies, guidelines, and standards that influence psychological practice, education, or research.
