    How do psychologists resolve ethical issues according to ethical principles of psychologists

    Psychologists typically resolve ethical issues by referring to the Ethical Principles of


    Psychologists and Code of Conduct (EPPCC). This code outlines five primary ethical principles
    and 10 standards of conduct that are designed to guide psychologists in their professional
    practice. The five primary ethical principles include:
    1. Respect for People’s Rights and Dignity
    2. Responsible Caring
    3. Integrity in Professional Relationships
    4. Responsible Use of and Take Care with Confidential Information
    5. Social Responsibility

    The 10 standards of conduct include:

    1. Competence
    2. Human Relations
    3. Privacy and Confidentiality
    4. Advertising and Other Public Statements
    5. Record Keeping and Fees
    6. Education and Training
    7. Research and Publication
    8. Assessment
    9. Therapy
    10. Professional Responsibilities to Colleagues

    By referring to the EPPCC, psychologists can evaluate ethical dilemmas and compare
    their decisions to the code to ensure that their decisions are in line with professional standards.
