Abstract In September 2011 the authors conducted a survey of the membership of NAFE on their attitudes regarding the NAFE Statement of Ethical Principles and Principles of Professional Practice (SEP/PPP) adopted by NAFE as a condition of membership. More specifically, the questionnaire was designed to ascertain the extent to which ethical problems have been encountered in the practice of forensic economics and the influence that NAFE's SEP/PPP has had in mitigating the problems. This article presents a complete summary of the results of that survey.

Test Usage

This paper is concerned with ethical issues in the practice and administration of tests. Some broad principles related to the knowledge required for test usage are described, together with the skills necessary for competent test use. Ethical practice in relation to test users, training in testing, test administration, test interpretation and test instruments is also examined. The focus then changes to a consideration of the more general ethical principles that apply to professional practice and are equally applicable to testing. A final section examines the relevance of these issues for career guidance practitioners and also some recent professional developments that will encourage ethical practice in testing.

Fourth Section

The first three, brief sections of the Code of Ethics of the National Association of Social Workers (1999) display striking inconsistency of content and uncertainty of purpose. The decision to incorporate those sections into a single code document along with the lengthy fourth section (Ethical Standards) appears to have contributed to their imperfection. The mission statement and the ethical principles, in particular, may develop better if they are divided into separate documents, each with its own distinct purpose. Such a development might help reduce the extent to which social workers must rely upon individualistic rather than shared wisdom in responding to common ethical issues.

Abstract In January 2012, 583 e-mail invitations to complete an electronic survey were sent to National Association of Forensic Economics (NAFE) members, with libraries and attorneys excluded. The return rate was 32.42%, which is almost 9 percentage points higher than the last paper survey in 2003. The survey covered many of the major topics included in earlier surveys, such as values of important economic variables (e.g., discount rates), trends in the practice of forensic economics (e.g., personal sources of earnings), and open-ended questions concerning ethics and reactions to the survey instrument. There were several new questions. Very few respondents have estimated damages in such categories as pain and suffering, companionship, and guidance; few add agency fees to household services estimates; and it is uncommon for respondents to estimate worklife expectancy differently for self-employed persons versus employees.

Forensic Economics

Abstract Since its organization in 1986, the National Association of Forensic Economics (NAFE), its members, and its leaders have maintained a focus upon ethical issues facing forensic economists and such related issues as the certification of testifying economists and appropriate standards of qualifications and of ethical conduct. In recent years, NAFE sessions and membership surveys demonstrate that this focus upon ethical issues has not diminished.

Chapter 3 discusses the ethical principles and issues involved in the professional practice of counseling psychology. It is important to note that the specialty adheres to the principles and ethical code of conduct of the American Psychological Association, which apply to all aspects of professional practice in professional psychology, and that, thus, there are no specialty-specific principles or a code of ethical conduct specific to counseling psychology. It also presents the most salient and frequently emerging standards of practice as well as the management of risk in counseling psychology practice, along with sample foundational and functional competencies in the knowledge and application of ethics in psychology with some examples of how these principles are used in the profession.

Professionals who have undergone their training at university should possess not only the knowledge-base necessary to practice in their chosen profession, but also the ethical principles that ensure responsible professional practice and the corresponding benefits for society. The research project addressed in the present article aimed to contribute to fostering ethical competence and commitment amongst future teachers. During the experience the participants had the opportunity to design tasks that stimulated reflection, critique and ethical awareness.

Resumen: El presente trabajo pretende acercar la deontología y las propuestas de los códigos deontológicos de interpretación en los Servicios Sanitarios (SS) y de mediación intercultural a la práctica profesional de las intérpretes y mediadoras a partir del análisis de mis propias actuaciones como MILICS[1] en el contexto de la Salud Sexual y Reproductiva (SSyR) con usuarias de origen chino. La principal hipótesis plantea que, atendiendo a la gran distancia cultural que se da entre la cultura china y la española, se espera que la MILICS deba relativizar la aplicación de ciertos principios generales de actuación establecidos en los códigos deontológicos en numerosas ocasiones y optar por un rol preferentemente activo en la interacción comunicativa cuando desempeñe su trabajo en el ámbito de la SSyR con mujeres de origen chino.Abstract: This article aims at approaching Public Service Interpreting deontology and professional practice by analysing my own performances as a PSI or cultural mediator in the context of reproductive health services with users of Chinese origin. The main hypotheses suggests that due to the wide cultural gap observed between the Chinese and the Spanish culture, the PSI/mediator will often have to consider the transgression of the ethical principles established in the Standards of Practice for Healthcare Interpreters and adopt a more active role.[1] Desde el Grupo CRIT abogamos por una figura integrada de la intérprete en los servicios sanitarios y la mediadora intercultural a la que denominamos MILICS.
