To date, extremely limited research has focused on the ethical aspects of clinical neuropsychology practice in Latin America. The current study aimed to identify the frequency of perceived ethical misconduct in a sample of 465 self-identified neuropsychology professionals from Latin America in order to better guide policies for training and begin to establish standards for practitioners in the region. Frequencies of neuropsychologists who knew another professional engaging in ethical misconduct ranged from 1.1% to 60.4% in the areas of research, clinical care, training, and professional relationships. The most frequently reported perceived misconduct was in the domain of professional training and expertise, with nearly two thirds of participants knowing other professionals who do not possess adequate training to be working as neuropsychologists. The least frequently reported perceived misconduct was in the domain of professional relationships. Nearly one third of participants indicated that they had never received formal training in professional ethics.
迄今为止，针对拉丁美洲临床神经心理学实践伦理方面的研究极为有限。本研究旨在确定465名来自拉丁美洲、自称是神经心理学专业人士的样本中，感知到的伦理不当行为的发生率，以便更好地指导培训政策，并开始为该地区的从业者制定标准。在研究、临床护理、培训和专业关系领域，知晓另一名专业人士存在伦理不当行为的神经心理学家的比例从1.1%到60.4%不等。报告最多的感知到的不当行为发生在专业培训和专业技能领域，近三分之二的参与者知晓其他未接受过足够培训却从事神经心理学家工作的专业人士。报告最少的感知到的不当行为发生在专业关系领域。近三分之一的参与者表示他们从未接受过职业道德方面的正规培训。
