Summary:

The Casebook is organized around the 19 principles comprising the 1963 version of the Code of Ethical Standards for Psychologists (APA, 1963). For each principle, several illustrative cases are presented. The cases are real, in the sense of being based on actual incidents, but have been disguised to preserve anonymity. In addition, the complete 1963 Code is appended, Appendix A, and Appendixes B-E contain definitive ethical codes on specific areas of psychological practice. The present casebook is not intended as a collection of dubious incidents but as a series of situations illustrative of the principles involved in ethical problems and the application of these principles to actual cases.
