Are you curious about the moral questions behind psychological research and practice? Ever wonder how psychologists decide what’s ethical—or where to draw the line? Ethics in Psychological Science and Practice is designed to address these questions and introduce the impact and importance of ethical research and practice in the psychological sciences. The course is organized in topics of discussion to examine the history that has shaped today’s ethical principles in psychology and explore real-world dilemmas faced by psychology professionals such as considerations on informed consent, boundaries in client-clinician relationships, privacy rights in mental health, and the ethics of cognitive self-enhancement. By the end of this course, you’ll develop practical skills in ethical decision-making, applying psychological standards to realistic scenarios, and understanding the ways that ethical factors in psychology shape aspects of healthcare, research, and the products you buy! Whether you’re considering a career in counseling, research, or any field of psychology, this course offers a unique opportunity to sharpen your understanding of the ethical complexities that shape the profession.
