Ethical Considerations in Trauma Treatment, Research, Publication, and Training (IN: Handbook of Post-Traumatic Therapy, edited by M B Williams & J F Sommer)

A statement of ethical principles provides a sense of value-driven identity & includes statements of responsibilities to the profession & professional development, to clients, to research participants, & to society. While this chapter focuses on that responsibility within the area of research & the client-patient relationship, ethical issues in training, publication, & presentation are also discussed.
