This practical textbook will enable students training to become Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs™) to fully understand and follow the new RBT® Ethics Code administered by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB®).
Starting with an overview of the role of ethics and core ethical principles, subsequent chapters provide concrete guidance for each of the three sections of the RBT® Ethics Code: responsible conduct, responsibility to clients, and competence and service delivery. The authors then show correct and incorrect applications of each code item and provide practical examples and solutions for applying each section to everyday practice. Also included are test questions where RBTs™ can test themselves on their newfound knowledge, along with a glossary, the complete RBT® Code of Ethics, and suggested readings. Last, Appendix D, "Considerations and Conversation Starters," will help RBT™ trainers quickly focus on specific code items and presenting scenarios for discussion and role-plays.
This book is intended to serve as a primary text for the training of RBTs™ as well as a reference and study guide for these RBTs™ and their trainers.

- "Once again, Bailey and Bruch have provided the field with a timely and much needed book. The RBT Ethics Code will be of great benefit to Registered Behaviors Technicians and those who supervise them. I see it as being an integral part of any training and supervisory effort and another layer of protection for the children and families served by entry-level behavior analytic practitioners.
Richard M. Foxx PhD, BCBA-D, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, Penn State University - "I’m delighted that Dr. Bailey and Dr. Burch have worked diligently to develop this book that is appropriate for use during the 40-hour training but also as a reference text for RBTs to utilize during their career. I believe it will be a great resource for our field and greatly appreciate the dedication to quality, ethical service that both authors have provided the field of behavior analysis."

The RBT Ethics Code explains each of the 31 principles in easy-to-understand language, illustrated by actual ethical dilemmas drawn from Dr. Bailey’s experience on ABAEthicsHotline.com, including suggested ways for RBTs to respond. A must read, not only for RBT preparation, but also for employers and supervisors of RBTs!

- "Given the unparalleled growth in Registered Behavior Technicians™ (RBT®) this Ethics Code book is a vital resource. Bailey and Burch logically tackle the ethics codes and provide detailed, clear, and practical scenarios throughout to assist RBTs® in their work. It’s a ‘need to have’ book for RBTs® and supervisors alike and I’m excited to use it in my classes."
