TY - JOUR PY - 2020// TI - Identifying points of engagement versus disengagement when consulting during crisis negotiations: a flexible model for applying the ethics code JO - Journal of police and criminal psychology A1 - Catanese, Shiloh A. A1 - Craw, Michael J. SP - 92 EP - 97 VL - 35 IS - 1 N2 - Application of the American Psychological Association (APA) Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct (American Psychological Association 2018) to consultation during crisis negotiations by psychological consultants is an emerging area. Common and emerging ethical dilemmas not addressed in previous works are discussed including use of third-party intermediaries, bounds of psychological principles that are applied to negotiation strategies, and tactical disengagement by law enforcement and SWAT teams. A flexible model along a continuum of the psychological consultant's participation based upon ethical considerations is suggested. Concerns about the psychological consultant's proximity to decision-making regarding "going tactical" is moot when experienced teams have a shared understanding of the various roles of team members and consulting mental health professionals are mindful of the "ceiling" of ethical decision-making based upon the General Principles of the Code of Conduct.
