It is a group project and I only have to do one, the first section (the Applied Ethical Principles and Standards section) of the paper, and part of the introduction and conclusion. Write an introduction: For the introduction section of your paper, include the title at the top of the first page, and begin your introduction two spaces beneath your title. (In APA format, the word Introduction is not used as a heading.) Briefly summarize: The ethical issue in the case you have chosen. How professional standards and other resources, in general terms, point toward solutions. Analyze how the issue relates to larger societal problems. Create a heading titled Applied Ethical Principles and Standards: Use the APA Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct to assess which of them relate to the particular ethical issue in this case, and analyze how they do so. Create a heading titled Alternative Solutions: Brainstorm several alternatives for resolving the ethical dilemma in the case. Thoroughly analyze the possible ramifications for at least three alternatives. Then, choose a course of action. Explain your chosen course of action and support it based on ethical principles, APA ethical standards, and current psychological research (within the past decade).
