| Abstract: | This study investigated a sample of practicing school psychologists' preferred resolutions to a series of ethical dilemmas and their primary reason(s) for arriving at these resolutions. Results indicated a general lack of consistency in both actions taken to resolve ethical dilemmas and reasons chosen to support such actions, regardless of respondents' sex, years of experience, self-reported hours of ethics training, frequency of encountering similar problems, perceived seriousness of the problem, or confidence in decision making. The results are discussed in light of similar findings from other areas of professional psychology and their implications for better preservice training in ethical decision making. |
