According to ethical standards in psychology, which type of information is considered confidential?

Name
Age
Gender
Diagnosis

The correct answer is: Diagnosis

Confidentiality is a critical ethical standard in psychology, meaning that sensitive information shared by clients must be kept private and not disclosed to others. Out of the given choices, name, age, and gender are all information that does not necessarily need to be kept confidential and may be shared without violating ethical standards. However, a diagnosis is personal information that is considered to be highly sensitive and must be kept confidential in order to maintain trust and respect for the client. Therefore, D - diagnosis - is the correct answer.
