Professional ethics: Another look.

It was in 1943 that the APA gave serious thought to codifying ethics, but not until 1947 that the Committee on Ethical Standards for Psychology was appointed to draw up a code of ethics (Hobbs, 1948). Provisional adoption of the manual entitled Ethical Standards of Psychologists came in 1952, and a revision of this original document has recently been accepted for a trial period of 3 years (APA, 1959). It is herein proposed that this abbreviated, watered down, revision is no improvement on the original. It remains highly possible that the need for a revision is not perceived by most psychologists. It is further suggested that the proposed revision is a trend toward greater abstraction that may only serve to engender ambiguity and individual latitude--a trend away from Hobbs' (1948) original recommendation that "the code should be formulated in specific terms." It is suggested that the APA seriously consider nominating an editorial board for a new Journal of Professional Ethics in Psychology to serve as a constant sounding board for the profession and the Committee on Ethical Standards.
