The neuroscience behind doing the right thing is explained in the CC19 keynote.

This is a description.

We live in a time of great emotional stress around matters of fairness, justice, ethics, and morality. The two-person system is the primary attachment partnership and is the smallest unit of a society. When guiding partner behavior that occurs inside and outside of therapy, therapists should have a strong understanding of their own moral and ethical compass. The ability to do the right thing for the self as well as the other is related to the psycho-neurobiological correlation of fairness, justice, and sensitivity. This keynote will attempt to cover a very dense but vital topic that answers questions such as, why do we self- harm, do things that make use feel better at the cost of being better, as well as act first and think later.

The educational objectives are listed.

1. List at least two areas of the brain involved in error correction.
2. Describe at least three reasons people tend to do the wrong thing.
3. Apply at least two techniques for getting partners in a couple to do the right thing.
