Abstract: Ethics is broadly concerned with the right and wrong behavior of individuals. The standards of right and wrong may vary across societies and within societies, including within a behavior analytic society. Standards of right and wrong are often stated via written ethics codes for professionals, but differences might still exist. Resolution of the difference of standards within groups might occur through various written processes. Examples of written resources might include blogs, newsletter, books, and journal articles. Within behavior analysis there is an absence of written resources, especially a recurring opportunity for discussion of ethics within a behavior analytic journal. The purpose of this panel is to discuss guidelines for a behavior analytic journal to implement a recurring ethics discourse process. Panel members will present a framework for a recurring ethics discourse process within a behavior analytic journal, and will present an example of how it might look in practice. Input from audience members regarding the proposal will be sought. |
