Podcast: A Conversation about Positive Ethics

In this podcast, John Gavazzi and Sam Knapp talk positive ethics.  What is different about positive ethics as compared to presentations on ethics?  We focus on how psychologists can anchor their professional conduct and decision making on overarching and foundational ethical principles. By focusing on the moral foundations of behavior, psychologists can upgrade their quality of patient care and decision making.

At the end of the podcast, the listener will be able to:

1. Describe positive ethics
2. Explain the concept of a culture of safety
3. Identity one way to apply positive ethics to daily practice
