Discussion:
When can a psychology professional release information about an individual?
There are times when a psychology professional can release information or talk about individual without using names. Explain under what circumstances this could be acceptable. What happens when the information is identified by a person who may be in attendance at a professional Seminar and believes that the case discussed is a person he or she know? What are your thoughts regarding the use of actual cases in a lecture, assignment, or even as a case study to learn about a disorder?
