Your paper must include the following elements that evolve from your personal theoretical orientation: •The basic view of human nature as seen through your theoretical lens •Key factors that account for changes in behavior •An explanation of how intervention strategies are designed within this theoretical orientation •An explanation of how your theory conceptualizes mental health •Key factors that contribute to healthy family/couple relationships •A description of the skills necessary within this theoretical orientation to meet the agreed upon goals and outcomes for couples and families •The nature of the practitioner-client relationship and its relative importance •An explanation of the evidence to support your theoretical orientation as an appropriate intervention for couples and families in need. •Based on your couple/family theory, develop a primary intervention program for an area of need in your community or professional area of interest (include the purpose of the program, client population, and four major characteristics of the program that would contribute to its effectiveness)
research proposal
For this assignment, submit the start of your research proposal that you will turn in in Module 8. It must be submitted as a Word document. Your start should be in APA format with a title page, body, and reference page. You can include an abstract if you want, but it is normally written at the end of a project or proposal as a summary. Your preliminary proposal should include: The title (and title page) A body with at least one page of the literature review (or background to the study depending on what you call it). A reference page showing all the references used in your literature review start. Your paper will be graded and the format and content reviewed with feedback to help you make sure you are doing it correctly. Be sure to open the graded assignment after it is graded to correct any problems or areas needing improvement. Also, be sure to submit the assignment before the deadline in order to get feedback for your final proposal. Late submitted assignments may not be graded in sufficient time to review. You are encouraged to use the attached template to help you correctly format your paper.
Ethics
The “You Decide” assignment presents a difficult and painful dilemma, with you in an imagined professional role. Go through the You Decide presentation, make the decision it calls for, meet you’re your team or partner to discuss, and compose a paper and presentation that explains your decision and your reasoning and justification for it.
You are called upon to make a painful medical decision and to explain it both orally and in writing. Who benefits from what you decided, who gets denied a needed benefit, and why? You will compose an official memorandum that will be kept for the record and could potentially be read not only by your Peer Review Committee, but also by those involved in charitable fundraising, which supports hospital development, as well as by others with financial interests in the decision.
You will see notice that there is time pressure in the simulated situation, so remember that you would not have the luxury to dawdle in the decision-making process, and as the decision-maker, you would not have the luxury of consulting a broad spectrum of advisors. It falls on you and your team or partner to decide!
Include in the document and presentation the utilitarian ethical philosophy of John Stuart Mill (from the lecture and audio for this week) and one other ethical philosopher of your choosing that we have studied to date, and use both of those philosophies to bolster your decision. This paper will be at least 2 pages and no more than 3 pages with a 2-3 minute oral presentation on which you and your team or partner may (ideally and preferably) collaborate. Remember, both professional written form and potential audience, as well as tone when writing this sensitive memorandum.

Media Effects Research Paper
Media Effects Research Paper
Media Effects Research Paper Guidelines
Media effects, also known as media influence are ideas and theories about how mass media influence people as individuals, as families, as communities and as nations. (Sterin 498) Many different theories help to illuminate this phenomenon. Theories of exploration include but are not limited to; uses and gratification, magic bullet, social penetration, cumulative effects, cultivation, and media hegemony. Your task will be to select a group of people who are effected by the media and provide an in-depth term paper which describes who is effected, how they are effected, and what this means on a greater social level. Your process will involve seeking sources of information that may include facts, statistics, historical writings, and current media influences. A research paper presents the results of your investigations on a selected topic. Based on your own thesis and the facts and ideas you have gathered from a variety of sources, a research paper is a creation that is uniquely yours. The experience of gathering, interpreting, and documenting information, developing and organizing ideas and conclusions, and communicating them clearly will prove to be an important and satisfying part of your education and are most certainly valuable in the field of Communication Studies. Suggested Topics Are Media Effect On: Violence, Obesity, Eating disorders, Trends and consumerism, Language, Gender roles, Crime, Politics, Video games, Education, Food Industry, Treatment of animals, ETC … Research Paper Requirements 4-6 pages in length 5-10 academic sources Typed Use the font Times New Roman only Use 12 point font One inch margins Double spaced Works cited page (and labeled as such) Cite your sources according to MLA style No title page

Training and Intervention Program
LASA 2: Training and Intervention Program
The value of a good assessment comes from the ability to conceptualize a situation and provide some language and a vehicle to promote change. Too many times in treatment, an assessment is completed as a task of the first few sessions and then left in the chart never to be reviewed again. This is a mistake, and good practice includes a constant review and update to the assessment as well as a plan of action.
Using the assessment that you completed for the LASA 1 in M3: Assignment 2, you will be able to practice making a difference in a child’s life by creating a training and intervention program for the adults in that child’s life.
- Write a summary assessment of the case study to be handed out in the school meeting with the family and professionals. This summary should include the following:
- Background information about the child, explaining his or her behavior and the current situation
- Possible determinates of the stated behaviors focusing on the family
- Possible determinates of the stated behaviors focusing on the school
- Create a presentation, with detailed speaker notes, to train the parents and school personnel to better understand the socialization of this particular child and to create a training and intervention program for both parents and school personnel. The presentation should provide research support from at least two peer-reviewed articles and include the following:
- Separate title and reference slides.
- Provide a review of the role this child plays in his or her family, how that correlates with the expressed behavior, and specific interventions recommended to change problematic behaviors.
- Provide a review of the role this child plays in his or her school and peer group, how that correlates with the expressed behavior, and interventions recommended to change problematic behaviors.
- Create a guide for parents to find the resources needed in the community or methods to gain the services needed for their child. Be sure to also identify four or five resources in your own community, and provide a description of the services they provide that would be useful.
- Provide information on resiliency and the research literature that best applies to this particular case study. Present the strength areas of the child, family, and school integrated with this resiliency literature to provide positive intervention strategies.
Write a 2-page summary assessment in Word format and develop a 15–20-slide presentation (with detailed speaker notes) in PowerPoint format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources, including use of in-text citations and full references. Academic sources could include your textbook, required readings for this module, or academic journal articles found in the Argosy University online library.

professional development
4-5 pages due by Feb 4 … You have learned many of the basic elements of a chemical dependency center in today’s world. Now it is time to write a report that will be used in a final proposal for a new treatment center. Consider what you have already learned, and continue your research about addiction and recovery theories, services, and continuum of care to design the most effective treatment center possible. Based on current issues that you have learned about, consider the changes you believe could be made to improve this evolving system.
Start with some of the following questions:
What do you think the future best practices might look like?
How might you care for the professionals in a field while they are caring for their clients?
What kind of professional development will the staff need to make this center a success? How might this improve services to those in need?
Given what you know and what your group discovered and discussed about modern treatment facilities, use your imagination to come up with a futuristic model of an addiction and recovery services center. Be sure to address the following information in a proposal of 4–5 pages:
Objective
Type of facility
Need for the facility
Purpose of the facility
Current issues or challenges the facility is designed to address
Mission statement of the facility
Philosophy or theories practiced within the facility
Logistics
Populations to be served by the facility
Treatments used in the facility
Physical appearance of the facility
Type of staff
Professional development that will be available to staff
