As outlined in the ACA Code of Ethics (2014), counselors know and understand the ACA Code of Ethics and any other relevant codes of ethics of national or certifying bodies and licensures to which they belong. Counselors can use codes of ethics to maintain the integrity and well-being of their clients. The Code of Ethics is intended to educate counselors about their ethical principles, professional standards, and obligations to clients. It helps counselors choose the most appropriate course of action in relation to their clients and colleagues and establishes ethical guidelines by which complaints and questions can be raised. Failure to have a thorough understanding and information about ethical obligations does not justify unethical behavior. One of the most thoughtful aspects of counseling clients in the ACA Code of Ethics (2014) is that the therapist avoids harm, which says a lot about their level of competence in modeling ethical behavior and appropriate action. In addition, it is no exception a counselor meets these same standards under the ACA Code of Ethics (2014) when notifying a colleague of a potential ethical violation in which they are engaged. Counselors have a moral duty to act responsibly and promptly to protect all parties involved from harm. The following scenario is an example of an ethical dilemma that could
arise in the context of my counseling career when a colleague of mine at the same mental health counseling agency has been battling with depression that has led to alcohol abuse as the result of the death of a close longtime friend.

Alternative Perspectives in Conflict of a Counselor with Impairment
(level 1 heading)
In this given situation, my colleague is suffering from clinical depression and alcohol abuse poses an eminent threat to clients, themselves, the community, and the mental health center. At some point, if not intervened, my colleague’s alcoholism and depression will become serious enough to affect their ability to safely provide counseling services. An alternative approach to this situation would prompt an immediate meeting with my colleague providing options for bereavement and an alcohol counseling program while monitoring any behaviors that pose a threat. Moreover, I would press the issue to encourage them to report their ethical circumstances to our supervisor while working on a plan to refer their clients to a legally competent therapist in the counseling agency. Now that my colleague is aware of their ethical dilemma is exposed, they can become reticent in their behavior. Discovering this ethical violation and not taking timely action to prevent harm will place our licenses in jeopardy of suspension or revocation. As a counselor, this situation prompts me to assume all ethical duties stipulated in the ACA Code of Ethics that mandates protecting clients and others from foreseeable harm (2014).

ACA Code of Ethics differs from NBCC and AMCHA
(Level 1 Heading)

ACA Code of Ethics (2014) stipulates that a counselor who has knowledge of another counselor’s unethical practices may use a casual approach to bring to light the matter at hand as long as that disclosure does not lead to a violation of privacy rights. (I.2.a.). Section I.2.b. does not permit this viable option of an informal approach for a presumption of harm; the apparent violation has or is foreseen to bring harm to the individual or entity. If informal resolution fails, I may contact an independent statutory certification body, state licensing agency, national or state ethics committee, or appropriate agency authority. Section I.2.e. Contains additional considerations for filing a complaint. In addition, consultants must refrain from filing baseless complaints that sustain allegations of unethical violations. In this case, information will also be withheld about false claims that would otherwise invalidate all allegations of wrongdoing and retaliation claims as frivolous. Section C.2.g states that counselors have a professional responsibility to continually assess their own physical, mental, and emotional health and identify signs of impairment that may lead to unreliable services. said to lose. If a problem arises that interferes with the counselor’s work, you must seek help and refrain from empowering the individual until the counselor is functioning properly.
NBCC
To make sure clients can always access the help they need, NCCs should take proactive steps to ensure there’s no disruption of services caused by illness, vacations, or unforeseen circumstances. To avoid any potential negative effects from not having someone to turn to in a mental health crisis, we recommend having arrangements in place with other counselors that we work closely with or with local agencies that offer emergency support.

Furthermore, if a NBCC’s emotional or physical condition makes it difficult to provide appropriate care, it’s advisable to seek out an alternate professional or to temporarily put counseling on hold. To make sure clients can always access the help they need, NCCs should take proactive steps to ensure there’s no disruption of services caused by illness, vacations, or unforeseen circumstances. To avoid any potential negative effects from not having someone to turn to in a mental health crisis, NBCC recommend having arrangements in place with other counselors that they work closely with or with local agencies that offer emergency support.

AMCHA
The AMCHA Code of Ethics emphasizes that all professionals and staff should guarantee the delivery of superior services, understanding that their aptitude is reliant on their own emotional and physical well-being. In situations where their knowledge or expertise is weakened for any reason, it is expected that they should search for a professional with the capability to assess if they should curtail, postpone, or terminate their services to customers. It is their duty to continually follow high ethical values and to attempt to settle ethical matters with peers in an informal way, if necessary, by bringing the issues to their focus. If informal problem resolution is unsuccessful, it is necessary to pursue other appropriate options.

California Statutes, Rules, or Guidelines Relevant to the Dilemma
(Level 1 Heading)

California State Legislation, Article 5 Enforcement Section 4999.90 stipulates, the board has the right to deny an application, or revoke the registration or license of any supervisor or licensed professional clinical counselor if they are found to have engaged in unprofessional behavior. This applies to the applicant, licensee, or registrant. Unprofessional behavior could consist of, but is not limited to, the following: anyone applying for or holding a registration or license under this chapter should not administer to themselves any controlled substance or dangerous drugs specified in Section 4022, or any alcoholic beverage in such a way that it is dangerous or injurious not only to themself but to others or the public. Furthermore, if the use of said drugs or beverages impairs their ability to practice safety to the public, then the board has the right to deny or revoke their registration or license. This rule applies to everyone, apart from physicians and surgeons who use drugs while performing licensed professional clinical counseling services. Failure to carry out professional clinical counseling services to the requisite standard of care results in “gross negligence” or incompetence.

According to Corey et al., (2018), Impairment can have damaging effects on a
professional’s effectiveness and practice standards, whether physical (substance abuse or chronic illness) or psychological (burnout). The inability to cope with stressful situations and perform professional roles compounds the problem. An impaired professional can be a detriment to clients, colleagues, and their entire profession, making it critically important to be aware of and address impairment. California State Legislation, Article 5 Enforcement Section 4999.90 stipulates, the board has the
right to deny an application, or revoke the registration or license of any supervisor or licensed professional clinical counselor if they are found to have engaged in unprofessional behavior. This applies to the applicant, licensee, or registrant. Unprofessional behavior could consist of, but is not limited to, the following: anyone applying for or holding a registration or license under this chapter should not administer to themselves any controlled substance or dangerous drugs specified in Section 4022, or any alcoholic beverage in such a way that it is dangerous or injurious not only to themself but to others or the public. Furthermore, if the use of said drugs or beverages impairs a counselor’s ability to practice safely to the public, then the board has the right to deny or revoke their registration or license. This rule applies to everyone, apart from physicians and surgeons who use drugs while performing licensed professional clinical counseling services. Failure to carry out professional clinical counseling services to the requisite standard of care results in “gross negligence” or
incompetence.

Naturalistic observation in psychology

ASSIGNMEMT

In a 3–4-page essay, describe a psychological/behavioral phenomenon that you would like to study using naturalistic observation. You will design this mini-study in sufficient detail to carry out this hypothetical project should you choose however you will not be collecting or analyzing data to complete the assignment.

Consider a phenomenon which you have observed and have a scientific interest in answering (for example political discussions always causing problems at family gatherings). It can be related to your work or career, family or friends, or any observation you have made. It should be any observation that has triggered an intellectual curiosity in you.

Describe the phenomenon you would like to investigate. Develop an overarching research question based on that scenario. A broadly framed research question can serve as a basis for initial and emerging sub‐questions. A single overarching question allows a researcher to capture the basic goals of the study in one major question. A clearly stated overarching question can give direction for the study design and collection of data and offer potential for developing new, more specific questions during data collection and analysis.

Include a description of all aspects of your design within your paper:

The setting
The people and circumstances being studied
The type of qualitative method you think is best for answering your question and why
The phenomena you are interested in finding information on
Your interpretation of the events that took place
Explain why (include support for your opinions) you chose this qualitative method, why it is most appropriate for your phenomenon.

Week Eight Writing Prompt

Week Eight Writing Prompt

This week, I’m giving you three different options to choose from. Whichever of the three you choose, I’d like you to write at least 500 words you can turn into me by the end of the week. As you’re writing, think about the “small subject” and the “large subject,” and how you can use one to get to the other.
You can also revisit your “Master List” from last week to help you find stuff to write about.
Prompt options:
1. Explore your relationship to a piece of pop culture. That could be a movie, a director, an author, a particular work of art, an album or a song, etc. Choose something you’re obsessed with, or have spent a lot of time with. Through your writing, try to figure out why you connected so strongly to that thing. And try to connect it to some “large subject” in your life.
2. Write about a place, like Andrea Kleine does in one of this week’s readings. It could be a specific apartment, or a specific room. It could be a neighborhood, or a block. But again, the goal is to use that place to say something larger about yourself, or your community.
3. Write about a time you felt out of place, like Lefkowicz often does in her essay, “The Gifted Classes.”

Research paper on the role of media companies in global affairs (case study)

The research paper should be 1300-1500 words long (including in-text citations). It should be organized, concise, original, and persuasive.

Question prompt:
Many scholars argue that “narratives” are a source of power. For example, Joseph Nye argues that in the contemporary world power is no longer about “whose army wins; it’s also whose story wins.” Consequently, he suggests that “we have to think much more in terms of narratives and whose narrative is going to be effective.” Increasingly, however, the ability to disseminate narratives is concentrated in the hands of engineers and managers of massive, unaccountable high-tech companies, such as Alphabet, Apple, Meta, and Twitter, among others. Using a very specific example as a case study, evaluate the role of such media platforms in global affairs.

Sources: your paper should be based on at least six external, reputable references as data sources
(scholarly articles, academic books, official statistics, government/IGO/NGO reports, etc). Newspapers and magazines may, and in fact should, be used where appropriate, but they must be supplemented by at least six external academic and/or primary sources.

Please provide a list of all references used at the end of your paper (this does not count toward the
word limit). Your referencing should be accurate and consistent throughout the paper, and the list of
references at the end should be in alphabetical order.

Recent Bank Failures

Please write a 4 page paper on the recent banking failures. Consider management failures, regulator monitoring failures, macroeconomic (Federal Reserve) impact. You might want to include your opinion on, a) what changes, if any, would you recommend in regulations, b) how this will this effect the banking industry, and c) how should the depositors, stockholders and management of these banks be treated. Please feel free to craft your paper in any direction based on your research. This will be a great topic to really dig into banking rules and the thoughts of pundits on the subject.

I look forward to reading your paper!

It will be due Sunday night, March 26th.
