By the end of week 6, students will submit an outline of what they intend to cover in their critical assignment research paper. Before completing the outline, students should carefully review the Critical Assignment description, including the requirements for the various sections of the paper. Outlines are not required to have a uniform structure – rather, your outline may be completed with any structure/format that you see fit for your paper. The purpose of this class assignment is two-fold: First, there are significant benefits to creating an outline for a lengthy research paper, including organizing content and ensuring that all requirements are sufficiently covered. Second, providing an outline in advance will allow the instructor to give you helpful feedback prior to writing your final draft. Students can review the following link to learn more about the purpose of an outline as well as ideas on how to create one: THESE ARE THE DIRECTIONS FOR THE CRITICAL ASSIGNMENT:::::TO HELP WITH THE OUTLINE::::: You will write a research paper on a topic of your choice related to human development throughout the life course (e.g. perinatal loss, language development during infancy/childhood, spiritual development in adolescents, moral development, late adulthood identity and role changes, etc.). In addition to the academic research you will do about this topic, you will also be required to integrate professional or field work experience into your exploration of the topic. Below is an outline of what should be included in the paper: a) introduction/describe the topic areai.e., recent trends, demographic statistics, and epidemiological data, if availableand state why this topic is important; b) summarize current scholarship from at least 6 peer-reviewed journals, with emphasis on in-depth review of the life span issue, highlighting insights from the literature related to developmental theories, and drawing conclusions from your personal analysis of the current literature (you may also use your textbook as an additional resource); c) discuss relevant field or professional work experience in an effort to outline the implications for human services practice (macro, clinical, or both). *Please see the description in the paragraph below for more directions about what constitutes field or professional work experience. d) lastly, in your concluding paragraph, please offer your own personal reflection on this life span development phase, which must include your analysis of how your personal faith perspective may or may not impact ones movement through the developmental phase. Please offer specific biblical principles, such as scripture passages, that may help to communicate your perspective.

Do not use abbreviations, contractions, passive voice, or first/ second person (I, you, we, our, etc). Before submitting your paper, check your grammar and use spell check.

Exemplary outlines will have: (1) Cover page (2) Discussion of major trends of the group with 5 detailed examples (3) Discussion of beliefs and stereotypes of the group and the types of oppression faced throughout history with 5 detailed examples (4) Discussion of groups’ values and norms with 5 detailed examples (5) Discussion of strengths of the group and positive coping mechanisms with 5 detailed examples (6) Reference page (7) Proper formatting of citations and use of grammar/spelling ***I’ve attached the literature review with sources already used and please make sure to reference the book for the class: Cultural Diversity: A Primer for the Human Services, 5th Edition Author: Diller ISBN: 978-1-285-07540-2
Psychology APA Format SM8-Feminist Therapy Instructions Consciousness Raising – Activity by John Sommers-Flannagan, University of Montana; used with permission For this assignment, read the following description and example of consciousness raising. Then, write a one-page reflection on the experience and turn the reflection into the Dropbox. Consciousness raising is a central process in feminist therapy. But sometimes its hard to get a solid grip on exactly what consciousness raising looks like in a feminist therapy session . . . and its likely to look very different depending on which feminist therapist youre watching. To provide one example of gentle consciousness raising, we offer the following therapy story and encourage you to read many examples like this to give yourself a clearer sense of what feminist consciousness raising. A feminist therapist will gently explore the various demands, the self-imposed and other-imposed messages of what matters and how to prioritize. In addition, assuming that theres evidence suggesting a need for education in this area, the feminist therapist may provide her client with research information about dual-career couples in our culture. Research shows that male partners still report feeling entitled to do less at home than their spouse does, no matter who works more hours or earns more money outside the home. Further, many women agree with their spouses in this assessment. This personal entitlement that men feel is situated in the cultureits a social norm. Further, when women try to understand their frustrations, they often compare themselves to other women, rather than comparing themselves to their own spouses. Therefore, women might decide that even though theyre doing more work at home than their husbands are, this is fair because mens jobs are more important or because other women have even less cooperative spouses, so they should count themselves lucky. If this were the case with a given client, research findings such as these may cast a whole new light on the burdens shes carrying and on how society has contributed to these burdens. From there, the client may feel empowered to initiate a constructive dialogue with her spouse about their respective family duties. Further, she may speak with other women in similar situations, providing them with information and support to ask for a fairer distribution of family and housework. Feminist therapists would see such an outcome as therapeutic for both the woman in question and for our evolving culture. In contrast, therapists who havent explored gender influences might ignore the relevance of her clients situation and its common application to many women; instead they might focus exclusively on the clients feelings of depression, or initiate a behavior change plan to solve her problems, or delve immediately into her past and family experiences to explore the origins of depression, or begin with any other counseling technique. While these other counseling approaches might not necessarily be damaging, it might enforce the clients idea that there is something uniquely wrong with her. One main focus of feminist consciousness raising is to help women and men to see that, very often, their symptoms are linked to clearly identifiable social factors and not internal problems (e.g., chemical imbalances, etc.). SM9-Family Systems Therapy I need the answers and answer to be proof read and make sense. This psychology assignment must be needs to be reviewed through a psychological perspective. The purpose of this activity is to get you in touch with (a) the roles within your personal family system; and (b) the powerful forces that are (or could be) unleashed if and when family roles are questioned or changed. Instructions: In your journal, describe the pattern, what you would do to change it, and what you think the reaction might be. Or, you can select any of the preceding patterns and, at your own risk, try to change the pattern even just a little bit. Then, just observe and see what happens. However, as noted, any comments or behavior changes you try out are at your own risk and we assume no liability. Consequently, if youre conflict avoidant, as an alternative to commenting or intervening with your unique family system, you could just observe and participate and wonder. Whether you think through what the situation might be like, or try to change the pattern in some way, write a one-page reflection in your journal based on your experience and submit to the Dropbox. This reflection needs to pertain to the instructions above and writer should understand psychology. Maybe a quote and citation (APA)
