Code of Ethics for Assessment Techniques in Mental Health.

While I was on the Internet browsing around looking for different articles about ethics in the mental health field I came across the Code of Ethics of the American Mental Health Counselors Associations.  This ethical guideline for mental health counselors varied slightly from the usual code of ethics that I had seen in the past. The difference is that a whole section is included for the utilization of assessment techniques. The headings in this section are:  Test Selection, Administration, Interpretation and Reporting.
