Journal

Ethics, Subjectivity, and the Art of Diagnosis

Although psychology prides itself on being a science, the art of diagnosis goes beyond a simple checklist of symptoms. Clinicians generally recognize that any diagnostic exercise must include a culturally sensitive interpretation and analysis of symptoms. Considering that only a bachelors degree in psychology does not prepare you to do diagnosis, it is important to consider how having this knowledge could support you in other careers. It is also important to consider that even a doctorate in psychology does not license you to treat with prescription medicine. To perform this level of diagnosis and treatment, you would have to earn a medical degree in psychiatry. To learn more, read the article

To successfully complete this journal,

Identify at least three disorders that you studied during this course and summarize what the disorders entail.

Discuss how an understanding of these disorders could support you in a career, prior to achieving expertise in a graduate program, by addressing the following:

o Consider the knowledge application to working with others in a team setting or working with families, etcetera.

o Relate this to the career you have now or one you wish to obtain after earning your bachelors degree.

o If you do not plan on gaining employment after graduation, how could this understanding support you in your personal and social contexts?

Analyze the rationales, including the ethical considerations that exist for becoming more educated prior to personally performing diagnosis.

Your journal, this week, should be minimum400 words and have an introduction and a conclusion as described in the Ashford University Writing Centers resource . You should exhibit obvious attention to critical thought and understanding of the content, as demonstrated in Samantha Agooss TED-Ed animation . You should include as needed to support your ideas. As this is your personal reflection about the material this week, your journal should limit the use of quoted material. Proper grammar should be applied, for which you should consider using the Ashford Writing Centers resource. At minimum cite your text to support your assertions in your explanation, but you may also use additional scholarly sources. The table offers additional guidance on appropriate source types. References should be listed following the reflection.

Instructions

In the next assessment, you will start to conduct your research study. We conduct research studies to expand our knowledge on how human behavior in the world is evolving. To conduct an effective study, we need to understand theories of development as they relate to our current environment and society. 

The first step, however, is to create a research proposal that provides the detailed plan for your study. Be sure to use the , as it provides context and wording that you should use to help you clearly explain your main points. By using the template, you will cover all of the points below.

Preparation

Variables

Throughout this course, you will work on developing a research project utilizing data from the  website, which contains archival data. Archival data is preexisting data that has been collected by another individual or organization, and is available to be analyzed enabling us to draw new conclusions about the data.

In Assessment 2, you will use the website to extract your data using the two variables that you select for this assessment. Begin by selecting two variables of your choice from the following list. Note that “r” represents the participant. These are the variables that you will use throughout the course in your research project. 

• Satisfaction with financial situation.
• Change in financial situation.
• Opinion of family income.
• Marital status.
• Highest year of school completed.
• Spouse’s highest degree.
• Does r or spouse supervise anyone?
• How often r attends religious services.
• Condition of health.

Next, start to design a research topic involving the two selected variables. For example, if you select “condition of health” and “How often r attends religious services,” you may want to research how religion impacts an individual’s health and wellness.

Scholarly Sources

Before you conduct research, you need to center your hypothesis and supporting literature on this topic through a literature review, which will be the first piece of your project. You will need to find at least seven scholarly sources to use for your literature review. Below are resources that may help you.

• Start with , which provides focused library databases and APA resources that may direct your article search. 
• Organizing all of your articles and notes will help you work through your literature review more efficiently. Complete , which will help you organize your notes and think of ways to categorize your findings, such as definitions, variables, findings, and population. It also provides an example of a completed matrix.

Instructions

Write a 35 page literature review that incorporates at least seven scholarly sources. Address the following within your literature review. Ensure that each main point of your paper is supported clearly with evidence from your sources. Under some points, there are guiding questions to guide your thinking, but be sure to consult the scoring guide to make sure you are covering all of what will be assessed. 

• Explain the psychological concepts that were addressed in the research.  
  • Are there any patterns, themes, or trends that you were able to trace in your research? 
• Describe the concepts related to the theory that will be the basis for your research.  
  • Discuss the value and the limitations of the theoretical concepts. 
• Develop a plausible hypothesis, where you predict the outcomes of the relationship between your two variables, that relies on evidence and reasoning.
• Use APA-style formatting, citations, and references.

Submission Requirements

Submit your literature review as your deliverable for assessment.

Prevention Media Project

Students will create a substance abuse prevention media project(no longer that 3-4 minutes) targeting any population covered in the course content. 

You are required to present an oral overview/statement of your project, by Week 7

Students are encouraged to be creative! It is important that students plan early in the semester for this project to ensure thatthe project earns maximum points. All projects must have the appearance of having been well thought out and organized.

When planning the media project students should considerfollowing these steps (use this guide as a checklist to ensure that you have covered all required areas of the assignment):

a. Choose a target population the group to which the message is focused. A brief narrative of the characteristics of your target population must accompany your project.

b. Examine the target group to determine what developmental level (age group) you will choose and those factors that are important in reaching that group.

c. Consider using messages that are most likely accessible to the target group you have chosen. Your target population can be defined by geographical area (country, region, town, etc.), as well as by age of the group and gender. It is important to be as specific as possible, remembering that the reach of your project likely will be broader than you may have thought.

d. Remember to give considerable thought to the text of your message, noting that less is better, you dont want to pack your message with a lot of text that wont grab the attention of your target population. Often the use of color, symbols and pictures will attract the attention of the target group. Pamphlets that have pictures of the people/group you are targeting are more likely to be read, than pamphlets that are not representative of the culture of the group you are targeting (ex. You would not want to give a Hispanic person a pamphlet that has pictures on it of only African Americans).

e. Also, the usefulness of the item you use to put your message on will help the recipient to keep your message within their sight (i.e. pens, mouse pads, pencils, waste bags for cars, refrigerator magnets, stress balls, small hand sanitizers, flash drives, etc.). These items though small are excellent ways of communicating messages.

When planning audio messages perhaps on the local radio station, consider the schedule and times your target will be most available to hear your message. For example, the best time to reach elderly African American females may be Sunday morning, between the hours of 7:30 and 9:00 a.m. Your research will need to be broad enough to determine the best time or source to reach your target group.

Human Development Theories

You are to research the four human developmental theories identified in your Chapter 6.

1.    You are to develop a chart (word or excel document) with the theory headings. 

2.    You are to cross reference the theories based on similarities and differences. 

3.    Lastly, based on the 4 theories selected what theory would you adapt as it relates to substance use prevention. 

You are to have at least one (1) peer reviewed document for each theory or adequate research (not including your textbook). This document must be clearly identified in your document.
