PSY7710 ACTIVITY 1
Ethical Elements 4 and 5
In this unit, we look at Ethical Elements 4 and 5. Choose one of the three scenarios below and answer the following (please put in the subject line which scenario you are discussing):
Describe how you would handle the scenario.
Discuss how the scenario meets or violates the specific ethics code(s).
Scenario 1:
A BCBA works with a mother who homeschools her child. The child is a 6-year-old boy with autism. The BCBA has done a functional assessment and has identified the controlling variables for the child’s target behavior. In the opinion of the BCBA, the best data collection system for gathering baseline data would require daily entries by the mother. A data-collection system has been designed that is easy to understand and score; however, the mother does not take the data despite the BCBA’s best attempts to prompt and reinforce her. This child really needs help, but with no data it will be hard to provide treatment. Should the BCBA terminate services (Bailey & Burch, 2016, p. 341)?
