The authors of this study reviewed 161 undergraduate psychology syllabi posted on the website of the Office of Teaching Resources of Psychology, Project Syllabus, to begin the process of identifying how ethics is presented to students in the syllabi. The results indicated that 24 syllabi did not address ethical issues, and only one course exclusively focused on ethics. Even though 137 syllabi mentioned ethics, the most frequent listing was under course policies. The authors hope to open a dialog on the importance of clearly indicating ethics as course outcomes in the syllabus.
