내용분석을 통한 아동상담자의 주요 윤리적 딜레마 상황과 대처 행위

Abstract

This study examined ethical dilemmas experienced by child-counselors and coping behaviors they practiced in context. The analysis was performed for 30 child-counselors in Seoul and Kyunggi-do. Participants were asked to describe a self-report in an interview with the main researcher. Data were categorized, quantified and examined in terms of five ethical dimensions derived from antecedent research. The five ethical dimensions are "confidentiality and protection of privacy", "professional competence", "informed consent", "informing clients of the nature of treatment modality", and "adequacy and effectiveness of treatment". This study contributes basic data for the development of an inventory for the measurement of ethical practice for child counselors.
