Solving an Ethical Dilemma
Course Learning Outcome:
Students will understand how to identify an ethical challenge and apply decision making principles according to the Ethical Code for Behavior Analysts (E1).
Your Signature Assignment for this class is to respond to one peer’s ethical dilemma on their WIKI page. Analyze the dilemma through the lens of Rosenberg and Schwartz (2019) steps 1-5, and refer to Broadhead (2019) if appropriate to support your response.
See the rubric for expectations related to each criteria of your response. Your paper should closely follow the steps outlined in Rosenberg & Schwartz (2019) and incorporate cultural information as suggested by Broadhead (2019).
Respond to your classmates WIKI by attaching a word document. They will appreciate the guidance.
