PrepTest 116 - Section 2 - Question 6

Show summary

Therapists who treat violent criminals cannot both respect their clients' right to confidentiality and be sincerely concerned for the welfare of victims of future violent crimes. █████████ █ ████████ ██████████ ██████ ████████ ███ ████████ ██████ ███ █████████ ██████ ██████ ███ █████████ ██████ ███ ██ ███████ ████ ██ ██████ ████ ███████

Summarize Argument

The author concludes that therapists who treat violent criminals can’t simultaneously honor their client’s right to confidentiality and be concerned about the criminals’ future victims. As support, the author claims that reporting unreported crimes violates the client’s right to confidentiality and breaks their trust, but not reporting these crimes keeps criminals out of prison and able to commit more crimes.

Notable Assumptions

The author assumes that concern for the client’s rights to confidentiality and concern for the welfare of future crime victims are mutually exclusive. It could be possible that there is a way to both respect client’s right to privacy while also protecting future victims.
