APPLICATION OF ROLE THEORY

/in /by

This week, you will use role theory to apply to your chosen case study. In other words, your theoretical orientation—or lens—is role theory as you analyze the case study.

Use the same case study that you chose in Week 2. (Remember, you will be using this same case study throughout the entire course). Use the “Dissecting a Theory and Its Application to a Case Study” worksheet to help you dissect the theory. You do not need to submit this handout. It is a tool for you to use to dissect the theory, and then you can employ the information in the table to complete your assignment.

To prepare:

  • Review and focus on the same case study that you used in Week 2.
  • Review the websites and guides for developing PowerPoint skills found in the Learning Resources.
  • Record presentation using CaptureSpace.

By Day 7

Submit a narrated PowerPoint presentation using Kaltura Media that includes 11 to 12 slides.

  • Each slide should be written using bullet points, meaning no long paragraphs of written text should be in the slides.
  • Include a brief narration of less than 30 seconds for each slide (i.e., the narration takes the place of any written paragraphs, while the bullet points provide context and cues for the audience to follow along).

ETHICS AUTOBIOGRAPHY

/in /by

Understanding who you are and how you might behave in a certain situation requires you to take a step back and consider how you established your own personal values and ethics. The helping professions, including psychology, require you to interact with individuals whose experience may be quite different from your own, presenting frequent ethical dilemmas.

This week’s assigned readings will provide some good insights into moral and ethics development. For this task, prepare a reflection paper as you discuss your professional and personal outlook on ethics and ethics in psychology, and reflect on what you read.

Consider the following questions as you prepare your reflection paper:

  • What event or personal example (taken from your life experience, observation of others, or even literature or film) has impressed you personally from an ethical perspective?
  • Before beginning this course, what thoughts have you had about right and wrong professional behavior (ethics) in psychology? Where does this conception of professional ethics come from?
  • After visiting the American Psychological Association’s website, and reviewing psychology subfields, which subfields do you believe are most compatible with who you are as a person? Which ones might present an ethical challenge to you?
  • Which subfields do you believe are most compatible with who you are as a person?
  • What subfields do you believe might present an ethical challenge for you?

STUDIES IN SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY

/in /by

The purpose of this discussion is to apply concepts in social psychology to examine the extent to which influential social psychological experiments  and studies from the past remain relevant to human behavior today.

Learning Objectives 3d and 5c

*Please  note:* This discussion forum is “post first.” In other words, you will  not see the posts of your classmates until after you post. When you  post, your classmates’ posts will be revealed so you can read them and  compose your reply.

Step 1:  Select a social psychological experiment or study from the list below,  or search the web and identify one that compels you.  If you decide to search the web and identify one not on the list below, please make sure the experiment or study was conducted by a university, college, or credible entity.

Robbers Cave Experiment (1954)

A Class Divided Experiment (1968)

Asch Conformity Study (1951)

Bobo Doll Experiment (1961 – 1963)

The Marshmallow Test Experiment (1972)

Step 3:  Based on your textbook readings and web research, compose a post that responds to the following:

  • Explain  the study or experiment you selected, describing what happened in the  experiment or study.  Also, explain any conclusions drawn based on the  experiment or study.  Next, identify flaws and/or criticism of the  experiment or study.
  • Based  on this module’s readings, select at least *two* concepts in social  psychology and explain how the dynamics associated with both concepts  influenced the participants in the study or experiment you selected.
  • Explain  the ways in which the findings from the study or experiment you  selected are relevant today or are no longer relevant today.  In your  explanation, try to avoid opinion only; instead, conduct web research to  include relevant statistics or a more recent study that replicated the  findings of the study or experiment you selected.
  • Include the links from your sources.

THE BURDEN OF STIGMA IN HELP SEEKING

/in /by

The threat of public stigma, as well as self-stigma, can prevent individuals from receiving the mental health treatment they need. In this Assignment, you analyze the influence of stigma on experiences with and treatment of mental illness.

To prepare: Watch the TED Talk by Sangu Delle and then review the readings for this week. Focus on Delle’s examples illustrating Corrigan’s model about the stages of stigma and the hierarchy of disclosure. Consider Delle’s experience against that model.

 

Submit a 3-page paper that addresses the following:

  • Briefly explain Corrigan’s model of the stages of stigma and his recommendations and hierarchy about recovery.
  • Explain whether Delle’s experience follows that model. Use specific examples to argue your perspective. If you agree, identify which stage of recovery Delle is in.
  • Analyze Delle’s reports about his own experiences with both types of stigma. Provide specific examples, and in your analysis consider the following questions:
    • Does one type of stigma predominate in his talk?
    • Which of Delle’s personal values or beliefs were challenged by his internalizations about his own illness and help-seeking?
    • What strengths does he exhibit?
    • What was the primary benefit of his diagnosis?
    • Do you think his experience would be different if his culture was different? Explain why or why not?

MENTALLY ILL OFFENDERS: TREATMENT APPROACHES AND CHALLENGES

/in /by

The treatment of forensic populations, as with any clinical population, must be tailored to the individuals as well as to their mental illness. There are specific treatment protocols for particular mental illnesses. These treatment protocols need to be paired with individuals based on the unique traits of the individuals and augmented with particular treatment approaches. Forensic treatment practitioners are required to treat a wide variety of mental illnesses ranging from serious personality disorders and psychotic conditions to suicidal and parasuicidal behaviors. In order to treat mentally ill offenders effectively, the forensic treatment practitioner needs to have a thorough understanding of basic mental health disorders and treatments as well as a solid working knowledge of the forensic setting and system.

Additionally, treatment professionals must be well versed in the process of psychotherapy and other treatment approaches for the mentally ill. Many traditional counseling and therapy theories and approaches used with clinical clients are also appropriate for mentally ill offenders (e.g., empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness). However, forensic settings are not conventional treatment settings and may require special considerations. Hence, there are many challenges forensic treatment practitioners face in the treatment of mentally ill offenders.

To prepare for this Assignment:

· Reflect on the type of clients with whom you might work with in the criminal justice system. Consider how their experience with mental illness may influence their experience with the criminal justice system.

· Conduct research in the Walden library on treatment approaches to mental illness in the types of clients with whom you might work.

· Select two challenges related to the treatment of mentally ill offenders in a forensic setting. Think about the steps you would take to overcome these challenges. Finally, consider what treatment approach(es) best addresses these challenges.

The Assignment (3–4 pages):

· Briefly, describe how mental illness may affect the types of clients with whom you might work. Identify the area of criminal justice and type of setting (e.g., prison, jail, community probation, etc.) where might work, including the type of services you might provide in that setting.

· Explain a treatment approach you believe would effectively address the mental health concerns with this client population and why you chose this approach. Be specific. Provide evidence to research to support your recommended approach.

· Explain at least two challenges related to the treatment of mentally ill offenders in a forensic setting.

· Then, explain the steps you would take to overcome these challenges.

· Explain any ethical or legal considerations you would need to consider when providing mental health treatment in a criminal justice setting.

· Explain any cultural or diversity related considerations you may to consider with providing mental health treatment in a criminal justice setting.

SUICIDE PREVENTION PROGRAM

/in /by

In every forensic treatment setting, the forensic psychology professional must be aware of the role that suicide prevention plays in the larger system inside and outside forensic institutions. Both incarcerated offenders and individuals awaiting sentencing pose potential suicide risks. In addition, offenders on probation or parole may exhibit an increased risk of self-harm. Often, suicide risk is increased in the forensic setting because of factors ranging from shame and guilt to mental illness or fear. Suicide prevention is one of the most critical functions that a forensic treatment practitioner has in any forensic treatment setting.

Even though staff members in jails and prisons work hard at reducing suicides, people still choose to end their lives when they are in forensic treatment settings. Although some of these individuals suffer from pre-existing mental health conditions, many do not. Forensic treatment practitioners should be leaders and advocates for suicide prevention efforts in their forensic settings. In addition to basic policy knowledge, the savvy forensic psychology professional needs to be aware of local, state, and national efforts to reduce the instances of attempted and completed suicides in forensic treatment settings.

To prepare for this Discussion:

· Think about the components of suicide prevention and intervention approaches and programs. Consider the efficacy of these approaches and programs. Reflect on which of these components are important in forensic treatment settings.

· Select two components of suicide prevention and intervention approaches and programs that you think are important in forensic treatment settings, and consider why.

With these thoughts in mind:
