Document Summary
Ethical judgements and the variables that influence making such judgements. Ethical judgments: decisions focused on ethical codes of conduct. How program goals, strategies, and standards relate to ethical judgments. Situations that call for sensitive judgments usually involve the use of goals, strategies, or standards. Goals: a desired end toward which effort is directed; an end that can be attained. Goals, strategies and standards must continually be evaluated. Values: the qualities and beliefs a person considers valuable or worthwhile. A product of early and continued socialization (families, society, culture, teachers, religion, friends, professional colleagues, organizations, etc. ). Basic values: values that are absolute, regardless of the situation or context. Relative values: values that varies, taking on more or less importance depending on the situation. The better we know ourselves the better we can recognize our values. A code of ethics provides a tangible framework for thinking about professional values and how those values might influence our behavior in the formal group setting.
