For your Module 2 SLP, you are to take a short quiz that will provide you with actual cases:

For each question you can select one of two responses. Once you submit your answer to the question you will be provided with a brief summary and a percentage of individuals who agreed with your response. You are to take notes for each question as you go along in the quiz, as you only are able to take the quiz once. In a 2-page paper, complete the following:

1. For each question provide a brief description of the case, your response, and the percentage of individuals who agreed with you.
2. Explain the rationale for your response and identify the ethical principle, theories, and/or issues the case presented. Support your rationale with scholarly reference(s).
