Daily Ethics Book
Melbourne, FL, August 13, 2024 --(PR.com)-- A Behavior Analyst's Guide To Thinking About Ethics Differently
Daily Ethics by Tyra P. Sellers, Emily A. Patrizi, and Sarah Lichtenberger
While important to all professions, ethics is especially vital for those in the caring professions, like behavior analysts (BAs). While BAs receive required initial training and continuing education in ethics, authors Tyra Sellers, Emily Patrizi, and Sarah Lichtenberger believe that BAs need to continually build their skills around ethics. To help BAs keep ethics at the forefront of their practice, the authors present Daily Ethics: Creating Intentional Practice for Behavior Analysts (979-8-9886548-5-8; $35.95; KeyPress Publishing; August 2024.)
Combining their decades of experience spanning teaching, clinical, and administrative roles in behavior analysis, the authors offer a new way of thinking about ethics for BAs: from a requirement and something to think about when encountering a possible dilemma to a daily practice of ethics. Intended for both new and experienced BAs, Daily Ethics encourages the reader to ground their approach to ethics in their personal values and think about, talk about, and act on ethics topics every day. The book places the focus on self in both self-care and self-awareness instead of on identifying other people’s potential misconduct.
Because ethics can be overwhelming, the authors offer this book as an invitation to lean into these topics directly, but slowly, over the course of a year. Each topic is presented over two weeks with specific prompts for reflection and action, and scenarios to keep the reader engaged and challenged. To further help reduce overwhelm, the book also inclues a Book Club Kit in the Appendix to inspire and guide group reading and discussion.
The book welcomes all BAs to engage in the content and not be afraid of the challenging work ahead. The book meets the reader where they are and encourages them to do the hard work presented, while supporting the reader and finding moments of levity throughout.
