PSY 570 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of a case study analysis. The final project represents an authentic demonstration of competency. This competency
is shown by the development of specific skill sets including: case study identification, understanding ethical conflict in a psychology-related work settings,
increased knowledge in the origin and rationale for ethics orientation in the psychology profession, specific knowledge of the core ethical principles that govern
professional behavior, an overview of specific standards as they apply to sub-specialties in psychology, a practical model for ethical decision making, and
consideration of alternative decision-making models. The project is divided into four milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the
course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Three, Five, and Seven. The final project
will be submitted in Module Nine.
By understanding the ethical principles of the psychology profession, you will learn how to inform your decision making when it comes to protecting and serving
the populations we serve. It is also important that the contemporary psychologist be able to address issues that are unique to our time. Some of these
challenges ask us to reconsider ethical frameworks and to be more precise in the language we use to define ethical decision making. This course allows you to
explore and apply important ethical concepts to potential situations. These skills are essential for proper behavior in the psychology profession.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
• Assess the impact of the current and emerging ethical codes on the practice of psychology for their influence in developing ethical decision-making
strategies
• Assess the influence of culture and social orientations on the development and practice of ethical standards of conduct for consideration when
developing ethical strategies
• Distinguish between ethically supported and ethically unsupported strategies for resolving ethical dilemmas in practice
• Develop strategies for incorporating empathy for diverse perspectives into ethically responsible practices
• Develop strategies for evaluating and resolving ethical dilemmas that integrate ethical decision-making models
Prompt
The summative assignment for this course is a case study analysis. The case study is one way for you to showcase the skill sets you have learned in this course
coupled with your area of professional interest. You will choose a case study from a pre-determined list. You should choose a case study that is relevant to your
concentration and/or a particular career field in which you are interested in working. You will utilize codes of ethics pertinent to your chosen area of interest in
psychology to approach this case study analysis. You will develop an ethical strategy for addressing the ethical issues present in your case study and analyze your
strategy for how it relates to important ethical concepts in psychology. Your case study choice, including the ethical conflict in the case study will be submitted
once for peer and instructor review, and then be resubmitted as a developing case study analysis following feedback that incorporates suggestions.
2
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Introduction: For this part of the assessment, begin your case study analysis by examining the many factors that influence codes of ethics in psychology.
A. Summarize the chosen case study. Be sure to include the important people and key interactions in the case study. This will be used later in your
analysis.
B. Assess culture and social orientation and their influence on ethical behavior and the existing codes of conduct. Be sure to provide examples to
support your claims.
C. Assess how interactions between the important roles (client, psychologist, researcher, participant, etc.) in psychology are influenced by culture
and social orientation and how that influence informs ethical conduct in psychology.
D. When making ethical decisions in your chosen area of concentration, how would you go about deciding whether or not an ethical strategy is
supported or unsupported? In other words, what criteria should professionals in your selected concentration or area of interest use to
determine which opinions on ethics to consider in shaping their response to the particular situation?
E. How do contemporary problems impact the need for reconsidering supported opinions on ethics in your concentration or chosen area of
interest in psychology? Be sure to provide examples to support your claims.
II. Ethical Analysis: For this part of the assessment, use the Eight Step Ethical Decision Making Model to show how you would resolve the conflicts or
ethical issues in your case study.
A. Describe the ethical issues in your chosen ethical scenario and relate the issues to the important people identified previously. You might
consider the following: What are the questions you wish to answer and the ethical issue that must be addressed?
B. Develop an ethical strategy using an Eight Step analysis to address the ethical issues and which could be applied to the chosen scenario. Be sure
to explain how your ethical strategy follows supported ethical guidelines. You might consider the following: What series of steps would you take
to address the issue? What ethical principles and standards inform this strategy?
C. Assess how your strategy differs with an opposing ethical strategy that could be used to address this situation and justify why your strategy
would be more preferable. Be sure to explain whether or not the opposing strategy follows supported ethical guidelines. You might consider the
following: What other principles or standards could be implemented? What counter arguments may arise in response to your strategy? How
would you answer them?
D. Assess your strategy for how it addresses ethical problems associated with multiple role relationship issues. You might consider the following:
Does your strategy consider the appropriateness of the different relationships psychologists can have with clients?
E. Assess your strategy for how it addresses ethical problems associated with multicultural competence issues. You might consider the following:
Does your strategy consider issues of diversity and culture with regard to your chosen ethical issue?
F. Assess your strategy for your chosen ethical scenario for how it aligns with current and emerging ethical codes in your chosen area of interest on
the practice of psychology in your concentration or area of interest. You might consider the following: How does your strategy follow more
modern opinions on ethics? How does your strategy reflect that ethics in psychology is not stagnant?
III. Conclusion: For this part of the assessment, develop a conclusion explaining the different influences on your own strategy. Be sure to incorporate peer
and instructor feedback you have received in order to properly reflect on your strategy.
3
A. Explain the influence of culture and social orientation on the development of your ethical strategy. You might consider the following: What
cultural implications did you feel you had to consider when developing your strategy?
B. Explain the influence of diversity and equality on the development of your ethical strategy. You might consider the following: What issues of
diversity and equality were in the ethical scenario, and how were they addressed? How did this influence your thought process and decisions
while developing your ethical strategy?
C. Explain how controversial issues in ethics have shaped emerging ideas in ethics. Be sure to provide your thoughts on this and how the
development of your strategy was or was not influenced by controversial issues. You might consider the following: Did you follow a strictly
traditional model, or did you use a more modern approach? How did this influence your thought process and decisions while developing your
ethical strategy?
D. Explain how your strategy could be changed to further address issues of multiple role relationships and justify your claims. In what ways does
your strategy lack in its consideration of multiple role relationships?
E. Explain how your strategy could be changed to further address issues of multicultural competence and justify your claims. In what ways does
your strategy lack in its consideration of multicultural competence?
F. Develop a conclusion summarizing your ethical strategy and how you believe it could be implemented to solve the chosen ethical scenario.
