By Truscott· Derek·
This comprehensive guide addresses the complex ethical landscape that psychology professionals navigate in their Canadian practice. Written collaboratively by a psychologist and lawyer, the book provides essential guidance for understanding and applying the principles outlined in the Canadian Code of Ethics for Psychologists.
The authors present real-world case studies that illuminate the nuanced ethical challenges practitioners encounter in their daily work. These practical examples demonstrate how theoretical ethical principles translate into concrete professional situations, helping readers develop the critical thinking skills necessary for responsible practice.
Discussion questions throughout the text encourage deep reflection on the multifaceted nature of ethical decision-making in psychology. Rather than offering simple answers, the book acknowledges the complexity inherent in ethical dilemmas and guides readers toward thoughtful, principled responses.
Designed for psychology students preparing for Canadian practice, established professionals seeking to deepen their ethical understanding, and practitioners transitioning to work in Canada, this resource serves multiple audiences within the psychology community. Those completing practicum or internship training will find particular value in the book's practical approach to ethical reasoning.
The inclusion of the complete Canadian Code of Ethics for Psychologists as an appendix ensures readers have immediate access to the foundational document that guides professional conduct. This integration of theory, practice, and primary source material creates a comprehensive resource for ethical professional development in the Canadian context.
