Judging the Seriousness of Unethical Action
判斷非倫理行為之嚴重性
Use the Code of Ethics as the minimum standard for ethical conduct. Use one’s common sense as a guide to the degree of seriousness of any violation of the code. Some violations can be very minor, others quite serious. Each situation must be judged on its own terms. Some questions to consider:
倫理守則是倫理行為的最低標準，依據常理作為判斷違反守則嚴重程度的準則。有些違規行為可能非常的輕微，有的可能相當嚴重。每個狀況都必須依個案做判斷。有些爭議如下：
Was there potential harm or actual harm?
是否有潛在傷害或實際傷害?
Was there a formal astrologer-client relationship, or was it informal relationship?
是否有正式的占星師與客戶間關係? 或只是非正式關係?
Was the member in question still a student? Was the member in question clear about their limits of expertise?
爭議中的會員是否仍是學生?爭議中的會員是否清楚了解自身專業能力的限制?
Were there other previous cases of unethical conduct with this member?
這位會員是否曾經涉及其他的非倫理行為?
Additions and modifications to these guidelines shall be considered twice a year by the Coordinator and voted on by the board of directors.
這些準則應由調解人每兩年補遺及修訂一次，並經由董事會表決通過。
