A

Feedback
A Correct. Deontologic theory uses principles or rules to guide the decision-making process. Duty to others is emphasized. The rightness or wrongness of acts is clear-cut regardless of outcomes or consequences.
B Incorrect. Teleologic theory insists upon looking at the outcome or the consequences to decide what to do.
C Incorrect. Virtue theory looks at the intent of the moral agent. Development of traits of character such as excellence, truthfulness, gentleness, politeness, and trustworthiness lead to appreciation of a situation and the resulting appropriate decisions.
D Incorrect. Care theory incorporates advocacy or acting on the client's behalf based upon empathy and caring. It tends to use the individual's needs or concerns as the framework for ethical decision making and essentially rejects objective-based rules or criteria for these decisions.
