    Ethical Scenario I picked up:

Explain how you would address this situation in accordance with the assignment instructions and the BACB Ethics Code.”

    Ethical Codes that I picked up and could be applied:

    Section 1: Responsibility as a Professional:

    Fundamentally, behavior analysts not only need to be honest and truthful in settings where they are conducting ABA activities, but behavior analysts need to promote honesty and truthfulness in general.

    1.13: Coercive and exploitation relationships: behavior analysts do not abuse their power or authority by coercing or exploiting persons over whom they have authority

    Section 2: Responsibility in Practice:

    2.06 Accuracy in Service Billing and Reporting: Behavior Analysts identify their services accurately and include all required information on reports, bills, invoices, requests for reimbursement and receipts. They do not implement or bill non-behavioral services under an authorization or contract for behavioral services. If inaccuracies in reporting or billing are discovered, they inform all relevant parties (e.g. organizations, licensure board, funders), correct the inaccuracy in a timely manner, and document all actions taken in this circumstance and the evaluated outcomes.

    For the behavior analyst, setting fees for services is often dictated by the third payor parties through established rate scales which are communicated through published and contractual agreements. In the United States, where the majority of services are paid by a third-party payor (health insurance), the families do not pay the behavior analyst or the organization directly. The behavior analyst or the company bills the insurance or third-party payer directly.

    Section 3: Responsibility to Clients and stakeholders

    3.01: Responsibility to clients: Behavior analysts act in the best interests of clients, taking appropriate steps to support clients rights, maximize benefits, and do no harm. They are also knowledgeable about and comply with applicable laws and regulations related to mandated reporting requirements.

  • Ethics discussion post

    Ethics is a branch of philosophy that is related to how we ought to live or what it means to live a Good Life. However, before we start ethics, learners must review what philosophy means, how philosophical literature is analyzed, and how arguments are formed. This will be the bulk of the next five weeks. Remember, you must demonstrate a good understanding of the reading, and as this is a 300 course, you must paraphrase your source(s) with in-text citations while refraining from direct quoting. Lets jump in!

    2. Socrates believes that doing the right thing is doing what is best for you? Do you agree?

    Why did you choose this experience? How do you see its importance in the overall dialogue of
    the Italian Experience in the United States? Your readings, guest lecturer presentations and
    class lectures should serve as the starting point. It is my expectation that your work will be

    supported by connecting what you experienced to what you have learned in this courseThe missing piece here is specific references to how your experience connects to what we have covered in class. Direct and specific examples are required from the assigned materials, as these support what you heard in the presentation and expressed in your assertions.
