Which of the following is not an ethical professional claim that a BCBA or BCaBA should make:
1. I have had success working with children like your daughter.
2. I have experience working with children like your daughter.
3. I am certain that I am able to help your daughter.
4. Give me 6 months and your daughter will be a new child.
I tricked ya! There are two answers. You should never say both of the following:
3. I am certain that I am able to help your daughter.
4. Give me 6 months and your daughter will be a new child.
You want to make sure that you do not make professional claims such as those above due to the BACB ethical guidelines. Review the guidelines at the following link.
