· Moral Development in School-Age Children

· Moral Development in School-Age Children
The readings in this unit expand upon the concepts related to school-age children, particularly in regard to moral development, with insights from the varied specializations within counseling.
Your text discusses moral development on pages 249–261 and provides some situations encountered by children in this age group that would create moral dilemmas within their lives. Based on this section of Chapter 7, develop a situation that would include a moral dilemma that is likely to be faced by an individual in early school age or middle childhood with whom you might be working in a counseling setting.
The moral dilemma can be fictional or nonfictional. In your post, describe how Kohlberg would describe the stage of moral development in the situation you have created. Additionally, discuss one other theorist or theory (learning theory, cognitive developmental theory, psychoanalytic theory, or object relations theory) and how the theorist or theory explains the stage of moral development in your situation.
According to these theorists, is the child at an age-appropriate stage? What factors would each theorist use to assess moral development in this situation?
Response Guidelines
Read the initial posts of your peers and respond substantively to at least one learner whose post resonates with you. Your response should be at least 100 words.
In your response, address the following:
· Is the moral dilemma appropriate for the age of the child?
· Has your fellow learner used Kohlberg theory appropriately?
· Do you agree with your peer that the child is or is not at an age-appropriate stage? Explain.

· Counseling Specializations and Multidisciplinary Teams

Overview

Counseling professionals from different specializations frequently need to work together to provide effective services to students, families, and individual clients. This assignment asks you to address this need in two parts, using what you have learned in this course so far. In Part 1, focus on theory and concepts, creating your own description and evaluation of your specialization, based on the historical and philosophical development of the counseling profession. In Part 2, apply these ideas to a particular case situation, focusing on how a professional in your specialization might collaborate with professionals in other specializations to help meet the needs of the client.

Directions

Part 1

Evaluate the role of your specialization within the field of counseling, beginning with your own description of the field itself, including both the history and the philosophies involved, explaining where your specialization fits, and describing how your specialization might collaborate with one other specialization that you describe. Cite the articles or other sources you use for the basis of your ideas.

In this part, specifically address the following questions:

· How would you describe the key philosophies of the counseling profession: wellness, resilience, and prevention? Choose a wellness model, and explain how that model impacts the way in which counselors view clients and the concerns brought to counseling, including the kinds of information counselors need to have about their clients.

· How have those key philosophies developed? Provide a brief historical perspective of the counseling profession focused on the key philosophies of wellness, resilience, and prevention. Include the beliefs and assumptions that support those philosophies.

· How did your specialization develop? Identify your preferred counseling specialization and describe how the specialization emerged or the profession developed, including the key ideas on which it is based.

· What other counseling specialization works well in collaboration with your specialization? Briefly explain the history of how this other specialization developed, highlighting the ways in which it complements yours.

Part 2

Now, select one of the following two cases, either Ashley or Paul, as a foundation for illustrating how professionals in different specializations might work together to meet the needs of the client you choose:

Ashley

Ashley, a 12-year-old girl, admits to one of her teachers that she feels very depressed. Her mother has recently remarried, and Ashley is having difficulty adjusting to life with her stepfather and his two children. She is not able to concentrate in class or do her homework.

Paul

Paul, a 32-year-old man, seeks counseling at a community mental health center. He has recently returned from his third deployment to a combat zone. He reports drinking frequently and feeling anxious. Paul’s wife has tried to reassure him that everything is fine, but he is reluctant to leave the house and has missed more than a week of work.

For this part, apply what you have learned about counseling and how professionals can work together to explain how you might collaborate with a professional in another specialization to serve the client you chose.

In this part, complete the following:

· Analyze how professionals from your specialization and from the other specialization you examined in Part 1 might collaborate to benefit the person and family in the case study you chose.

· Describe the role and function of each of the professionals involved.

· Identify the characteristics that make each role unique and make them effective counselors for this case.

· Assess how to ensure good collaboration and communication between the professionals representing the two specializations.

· Identify the type of outside agency that could assist this client to promote optimal wellness, providing two examples.

· Explain the standards or criteria that you would use to evaluate the collaboration.

Review the scoring guide given in the resources to make sure you understand how this assignment will be graded.

Psychology: Educational Achievement

s Psychology: Educational Achievement

One research area of indigenous psychology is the study of educational achievement in different countries. The research questions why students in some countries perform much better than students in other countries. Their findings have emphasized four major factors that impact educational achievement. The first factor, interdependence and proxy control, refers to a child’s dependence on parents. The second factor, self-regulation, refers to the effort a student puts into academic pursuits. The third factor, collective control, refers to cooperation between family members and educators. Organizational cultural, the fourth factor, refers to the underlying cultural value system that emphasizes human-relatedness. Your text provides further details about each of these factors. The article provided in this week’s resources illustrates the four factors and their effect on educational achievement in Korea. (Note that the authors of the article use the terms educational achievement and academic achievement interchangeably).

Studies show that East Asian students are high academic achievers, particularly in math and science. In contrast, studies indicate that students in the United States perform poorly in science, math, and often other academic areas as well. Psychologists are interested in understanding whether factors that influence high achievement in East Asia might somehow be “imported” into the United States to improve educational achievement.

To prepare for this Assignment:

· Review Chapter 5 in your course text, paying particular attention to the section on understanding achievement in East Asia.

· Review the article “Indigenous psychological analysis of academic achievement in Korea: The influence of self-efficacy, parents, and culture.” Focus on the following sections: “Traditional approaches; cultural values,” “Family and self-cultivation in Korea,” and “Discussion.”

· Think about how the factors of interdependence and proxy control, self-regulation, collective control, and organizational culture contribute to high educational achievement in East Asian countries such as Korea.

· Consider how the absence of interdependence and proxy control, self-regulation, collective control, and organizational culture may correspond with low educational achievement in the United States.

· Think about whether you believe the East Asian approach to interdependence and proxy control, self-regulation, collective control, and organizational culture might somehow be “imported” into American culture in order to improve educational achievement.

The Assignment (3–4 pages):

· Explain how the East Asian approach to interdependence and proxy control, self-regulation, collective control and organizational culture contributes to high educational achievement in East Asian countries.

· Explain how the absence of interdependence and proxy control, self-regulation, collective control, and organizational culture may correspond to low educational achievement in the United States.

· Explain whether you believe the East Asian approach to interdependence and proxy control, self-regulation, collective control, and organizational culture might be “imported” into American culture in order to improve educational achievement. Explain your answer.

Note: Support the responses within your Assignment with evidence from the assigned Learning Resources. Provide a reference list for resources you used for this Assignment.

podcast psychology assignment

psychology assignment

For this assignment, my grading focus will be on the content of response. However, points will be deducted for egregious grammatical and stylistic errors. Do not use direct quotes.
The Assignment:
https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/is-football-bad-for-your-brain/
Listen to this record and Write a response paper that includes the following:
1. Brief (two – three sentence) summary of the podcast topic.
2. What did you like about the podcast? What interested you?
3. What didn’t you like about the podcast? What was confusing or unclear?
4. How did the content of the podcast connect to the textbook and/or class discussions? Identify at least two points of connection.
5. If you could interview one or more of the podcast speakers, what would you ask them? Write at least two possible interview questions.
Your likes and dislikes should show a deeper level of thought analysis. For example, instead of, “I liked it because it was funny,” explain why you found it funny, and how that helped or did not help you understand the material. Remember as you write this to show, not tell. Don’t state, “I liked this podcast because…” or “This podcast connected to the textbook because….” Instead, show me why you found it interesting. For example, you might say something like, “I was surprised to hear the two speakers argue over the role of science in society,” or “Although our textbook only talks about hallucinations in the context of mental illness, the podcast explored how common hallucinations really are.”
Grading will be categorical: This response paper is worth 15 points. Papers meeting at least the minimum requirements will earn 9, 11, 13, or 15 points. Papers failing to meet these criteria will be graded at my discretion.
15 points:
· Podcast is clearly and concisely summarized
· Likes/interests and dislikes/challenges are clearly explained and show in-depth analysis
· Two points of connection between the text/class and the podcast are identified and clearly explained
· Interview questions are well-written
· Overall paper structure is logical and clear
