The apa ethics code defines relationships as occurring when a psychologist is in a professional role with a person and has another role with that person that could impair the psychologist's "objectivity, competence, or effectiveness in performing his or her functions as a psychologist" or otherwise risks exploiting or harming the other person.

The correct response is multiple relationships.

Explanation:

A multiple relationship occurs when a psychologist knows or is somehow familiar with the same person in both a professional role and some other role. It can also apply to the case where the psychologist knows someone who is close to the patient in question.  This can cause ethical dilemmas for the psychologist because it may affect their objectivity or effectiveness. The professional also needs to weigh whether there is a risk the patient could be harmed or in some way exploited because of the multiple relationship.
