A Survey on Ethical Beliefs of Chinese Counselors and Psychotherapists and Its Comparison with American Professionals

Objective:In order to understand the professionals' ethical ideas and provide references for ethics education, and try to set up Chinese ethical code, the ethical beliefs of Chinese counselors and psychotherapists were investigated. Methods:145 Chinese counselors and therapists were asked to fill up an ethical questionnaire which was translated from the survey developed by Gibson and Pope in 1993 in the United States. The results of the survey were analyzed and compared with that of American professionals. Results: Chinese participants showed strong ethical beliefs in general, but they need more training in the aspect of informed consent. There were apparent culture differences on some aspects between two samples. Some significant gender and age differences could also be found. The authors believe that ethical training should be considered as an important way to enhance the professionals' awareness on ethical codes.
