Unit 3 – Sensation and Perception
Topic 3.2
What ethical issue arises if a psychologist uses subliminal messages without client knowledge or permission?
The main issue here is non-maleficence as it doesn't cause physical harm to clients.
This action mainly causes financial harm rather than ethical concerns.
This practice violates autonomy because clients cannot give informed consent without awareness.
This situation is not unethical as it's within the domain of psychological practice.
