This book provides students and newly minted behavior analysts with general philosophical principles and core ethical standards that can be used to inform their approach to real-life scenarios and challenges as an Ethical Behavior Analyst.

The Ethical Behavior Analyst addresses the challenge of balancing ethical behavior analysis with business operations. It guides clinicians through various aspects of running a behavior analysis company, from client admission to service conclusion, emphasizing individualized, ethical treatment that prioritizes clients' interests. Readers will learn about client and supervisee management, business operations, ethical decision-making, finding employers, providing quality customer service, supporting supervisees' professional development, and implementing ethical billing practices. Each chapter offers practical guidance for maintaining ethical standards while navigating the business aspects of behavior analysis in today's profit-driven treatment environment.

Graduate students studying ethics, professional issues, and behavior analysis on psychology courses will find this resource invaluable, as well as newly certified clinicians, supervisors who oversee registered behavior technicians, and employers looking to integrate an ethical core to their business practice.
