Cursusdoelen
By the end of the course:
  1. Students can identify, describe and evaluate ethical aspects of human interactions in the professional practice of psychologists.
  2. Students can evaluate ethical situations and dilemmas from multiple ethical frameworks, as well as several international professional codes and current ethical theories, both western and non-western.
  3. Students can analyse and distinguish between the multitude of emotions, considerations, (biased) assumptions and options that comprise a moral dilemma in psychology in a systematic manner, such that it enables taking a decision and being able to justify it.
  4. Students should also be able to identify the shortcomings of all theories and how they affect the decisions taken.
  5. Students should be able to reflect critically about themselves as situated professionals and understand how ‘who they are’ relates to their interactions with others and their ethical decisions.
Inhoud
Ethics, in short, is about the question 'how do I do the right thing?' A question that every person asks themselves with some regularity. Psychologists also wonder how they can do the right thing in the various fields of work of the psychologist: health care, labour & organization, education, behavioural change, sport, etc. Practicing psychology today requires skills for an increasingly diverse and complex world. To do so, psychologist must juggle their client’s myriad of issues and concerns while maintaining the highest standards of the profession. No matter how much rigorous training and continuing education psychologists undergo, no psychologist can anticipate all of the various dilemmas and challenges they will face in practice as a clinician, an academic, or a researcher.
 
This course is about recognizing moral situations and dilemmas. You will learn to evaluate these dilemmas and situations using several ethical frameworks (normative and meta-ethical, western and non-western) and several different ethical codes (i.e. APA, Dutch, European, International). In addition to these frameworks, by means of self-reflection we will consider how you personally and professionally, in terms of acculturation and implicit bias (among other factors), determine the types of decisions you make in ethical situations. This reflection makes it easier to place the multitude of emotions, biases and thoughts that confront us in a moral dilemma into a more systematic framework, and from there be able to make a decision which one can account for to others who, perhaps, think and judge differently.
