What aspect of advertisements for growth groups should comply with the Code of Ethics?

Advertisements for growth groups must comply with the Code of Ethics primarily by including a statement about the goals and nature of the experiences offered. This requirement ensures that potential participants have a clear understanding of what the group aims to achieve and what they can expect from the experience. By communicating these goals and the nature of the experiences, the advertisement promotes transparency and informed consent, which are essential aspects of ethical practice in psychology.

Having this information allows individuals to make informed decisions about whether the growth group aligns with their personal needs and therapeutic objectives. Clarity in goals and experiences helps to manage expectations and can reduce potential harm, ensuring participants are adequately prepared for the journey they are considering.
