Conference ‐ October 2017Hidden Ethics CodeWhat’s Behind the Curtain?Ethics Code is more than a random set ofrequirements and prohibitions.Instead, the enforceable standards are linked tooverarching ethical principles.Implementing the spirit and letter of the overarchingethical principles requires commitment on the part ofindividual psychologistsWhat’s Behind the Curtain?Hidden implies Implicit, not ObviousOverarching Ethical Principles NeedDecodingLetter and Spirit Imply Deeper LevelsThe First CurtainUnderstanding the standards in thecode of conduct requiresunderstanding the overarchingethical (General or Aspirational)principles which form thefoundation of the Code.Commitment Requires ActionWhen we open the curtain, it’s up to you1

WorseHow do we go about ensuring thatwe are more consistently on the“good” side of the continuum?Better v. Worse (cont.)Self‐awareness: “You have to be it tosee it”Self‐reflection: “You have to name itto tame it”Self‐regulation: “You have to share itto bear it.”5

10/18/2017Definitions:Sufficient Humility and Self‐AwarenessWe do not have to be narcissistic: i.e.,perceive ourselves as dominant or betterthan others.Instead, we are free to see ourselvesaccurately, with flaws and limitations.“In the beginners mind the possibilities aremany, in the expert’s they are few.”Professionalism: “a commitment on the part of theindividual practitioner to self‐monitor andimprove”Meta‐competence: “the ability to assess what oneknows and what one doesn’t know”Reflection: deliberate and objective self‐analysiswith the goal of gaining insights to improve futurebehaviorSuzuki RoshiSelf‐AwarenessHow well do we know our areas of competence?How well do we understand our personalstrengths and weaknesses?How well do we understand how we comeacross to others?Or: Are we “strangers to ourselves?”How Aware Are We? (cont.)Most psychologists think they get better withage (Orlinsky, 1999)BUT:*overall outcomes show small increases withage (Goldberg et al., 2016)*value of clinical judgment increases verylittle (Spengler et al., 2015)*disciplinary actions by licensing board arehigher among older psychologists (Cullari,2007)How Aware Are We? ‐ some Data!25% of therapists rated selves in the top 10%;none in the bottom 50% (Walfish et. al., 2010)Therapists claimed patient deterioration rates thatwere one third to one half the known rate ofpatient deterioration (Walfish et al., 2010)Psychologists often disagree with patients onhelpful or harmful events in treatment(Castonguay et al., 2010)How Aware Are We? ‐ (cont.)Implicit prejudices (“uncomfortableegalitarians”) Banaji and Greenwald, 2013Self‐reported cultural competence shows alow correlation with actual culturalcompetence (Constantine & Ladany, 2000)6

10/18/2017Counterintuitive StatementsConfusing QuestionsDo you want to do good or do you want goodto be done?What do you want the person next to you tolearn today?We do not care what you learntoday, but we care very muchwhat YOU learn today.Resume Building vs. Eulogy Virtues?David Brooks, NY Times, April 2015Self‐ReflectionAn on‐going metacognitive process arising out of acommitment to life‐long professional developmentthat could include both deliberate and tacitprocesses. Its goal is to expand expertise throughattention to and a critical evaluation of one’spersonal experiences, feelings, thoughts, behaviors,fantasies, bodily experiences, and interactions withothers which is integrated with scholarship. It shouldhelp individuals gain new insights that can be appliedto new situations.Self‐Reflection (cont.)We all have a tendency to overestimateourselves and our abilities.A modest amount of overestimation isacceptable, but we need to avoid“professional narcissism”“I am more than my liabilities and less thanmy capabilities.”Parker PalmerSelf‐Reflection (cont.)Reflection on our work and the impact it has onus is the single best thing we can do to improveourselves, and it is the most difficult activity tomake time for and to effectively incorporate inour routines.We can do better at it, when we free ourselvesfrom hubristic prideSelf‐Reflection (cont.)Written or spoken?Alone or in a group?Done routinely or sporadically?Productive or ruminating?9

10/18/2017Third Self‐Reflection ExerciseThere is a thread you follow. It goes amongthings that change. But it doesn’t change.People wonder about what you are pursuing.You have to explain about the thread.but it is hard for others to see.While you hold it you can’t get lost.Tragedies happen; people get hurtor die; and you suffer and get old.Nothing you do can stop time’s unfolding.You don’t ever let go of the threadThird Exercise (cont.)Take a few minutes and write down:What is the thread in your life?Can others see it?How can you better illuminate your thread?William StaffordFourth Self‐Reflection Exercise“My Future Self”How would you like to be described at yourretirement party?

In particular, Lemma 2.1 implies that ideals containing x2 i ¡xi xi(xi ¡1) in each variable (i.e., the boolean ideals) are radical. In Section 4, we will see that all ideals associated with dominating sets (and therefore Vizing’s conjecture) are radical for this reason. In general, it may be quite di–cult to determine a basis for p IJ.
