Question

A reason that behavior analysis is unique is that many behavior analysts work for state agencies or private consulting firms, often with little direct supervision in the field. Employers should provide proper oversight to the behavior analyst. However, it is often the behavior analyst who must individually be responsible for his or her own ethical conduct.
This may be especially difficult when:

a. The employer may expect the behavior analyst to engage in unseemly or possibly unethical behavior, such as cutting corners to increase profits.
b. The behavior analyst must refuse an employer's request because it violates ethical guidelines.
c. The employer threatens termination if the behavior analyst does not comply with his or her request.
d. All of the other answers are correct.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

In simple words, as per the guidelines of corporate ethics every individual is responsible for his or her own ethical duties fulfillment. Similarly, the behavioral analyst must also be diligent towards his or her duties on ethical grounds.

However, the ethical dilemma occurs when the employer himself or herself wants the analyst to perform ethical misconducts for the benefit of organisation.
