In this compact guide to applying the American Psychological Association's (APA) Ethics Code, clinical psychologists Barnett (in private practice in Maryland) and Johnson (United States Naval Academy; Johns Hopkins U.) address the gamut of decision- making challenges psychologists face. They treat the APA standards of ethical practice in the contexts of a process model, managed care, supervision/consultation, reporting requirements, working with suicidal clients, successful termination of clinical relationships, and responding to an ethics complaint. Resources include colleague assistance for "psychologists in distress."
