As you will learn throughout the program, the diagnosis of a variety of psychiatric illnesses is not always an easy or straightforward process. Multiple observations and assessment methods are often employed to reach a diagnosis. This approach can include the use of standardized assessment instruments.? This then aids you in defining a treatment plan and choosing specific treatment plans to use in the care of your clients.  

You are tasked with identifying a standardized assessment instrument/tool to measure the disorders listed for each week. You will keep these instruments in the form of a “portfolio” that you can use in your clinical practice to assess clients who present with a variety of symptoms.  

  • Instructions: 

Instrument/ Tool criteria:  

For each assessment, you are tasked with selecting, you will identify an instrument and:  

List what DSM diagnosis the tool/instrument is used for.  

Identify an assessment/diagnosis instrument. 

Appraise a scholarly, peer-reviewed article that addresses the use of the instrument to support your choice as an evidence-based instrument for practice.  

Evaluate the instrument’s appropriateness for diagnosing the condition it is designed to assess or if the developers of the instrument reported that the instrument is only part of a comprehensive assessment for the disorder.  

Describe whether or not the instrument can be used to measure patient response to therapy/treatment or if it is strictly for assessment and diagnosis.  

Discuss the psychometrics/scoring of the instrument, including reliability and validity.  

Discuss any limitations associated with the use of the instrument.

Question

M1: L2 – Discussion on Plagiarism (D-02)

 Instructions

Choose only ONE of the following options below and, in your post, write a paraphrase that avoids plagiarism of the paragraph you have chosen. Your paraphrase can be as long as the excerpt you have chosen, but should not duplicate any phrasing from the excerpt. If you must, you can quote up to three words in a phrase.

Choose to paraphrase ONE of the excerpts below taken from Enclyclopedia.com:

Option 1

Morrison began writing Sula in 1969, a time of great activism among African Americans and others who were working toward equal civil rights and opportunities. The book addresses issues of racism, bigotry, and suppression of African Americans; it depicts the despair people feel when they can’t get decent jobs, and the determination of some to survive. Eva, for example, cuts off her leg in order to get money to raise her family. Morrison shows how, faced with racist situations, some people had to grovel to whites simply to get by, as Helene does on a train heading through the South. Others, however, fought back, as Sula does when she threatens some white boys who are harassing her and Nel.

or

Option 2

In 1993, Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature, and thus became the first African American and only the eighth woman ever to win the award. According to Maureen O’Brien in Publishers Weekly, Morrison said, “What is most wonderful for me personally is to know that the Prize has at last been awarded to an African American. I thank God that my mother is alive to see this day.” In 1996, she received the National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters.

Question

The 7 “S’s” of Crime Scene Management

Thanks to recent television dramas, such as CSI Las Vegas and its various spin-offs, the world of a Crime Scene Analyst has become one of fascination and glamour! However, the reality of the profession is one of tedium, research, keen observation, and well—filth! The analyst (often mistakenly referred to as a CSI) is only one small piece of a much larger process known as crime scene management.

Crime scene management is a sequential process performed by an investigative team to ensure all forensic evidence is properly recovered from a crime scene. Regardless of whether it is a minor scene or a major incident, scene management activities must be handled effectively. If the evidence recovery process is carried out in an efficient and logical manner, it will ensure the least amount of evidence contamination or compromise. Additionally, this process will establish professional credibility and examination impartiality to members of the court. In general terms, the 7 “S’s” (or stages) of crime scene management are:

  1. Securing the Scene
  2. Separating the Witnesses
  3. Scanning the Scene
  4. Seeing the Scene
  5. Sketching the Scene
  6. Searching for Evidence
  7. Securing and Collecting Evidence

This course project will require you to perform a summary analysis of a famous criminal case and examine the crime scene management techniques used throughout the case. You will also prepare a written analysis of your findings. The project is worth 20% of your overall grade (4% each). 

Project Overview

Prior to starting, you will select one of the cases below with which to begin your research:

  • John Allen Muhammed and Lee Boyd Malvo (The Beltway Snipers)
  • Dzhokhar and Tamerian Tsarnaev (The Boston Marathon Bombers)
  • The Murder of Elizabeth Short (Black Dahlia)
  • Phillip Markoff (The Craigslist Killer)
  • The Death of Laci Peterson. Instructions

Question

Case Study Module 4

CASE STUDY: Family Member with Alzheimer’s Disease: Mark and Jacqueline

Mark and Jacqueline have been married for 30 years. They have grown children who live in another state. Jacqueline’s mother has moved in with the couple because she has Alzheimer’s disease. Jacqueline is an only child and always promised her mother that she would care for her in her old age. Her mother is unaware of her surroundings and often calls out for her daughter Jackie when Jacqueline is in the room. Jacqueline reassures her mother that she is there to help, but to no avail.

Jacqueline is unable to visit her children on holidays because she must attend to her mother’s daily needs. She is reluctant to visit friends or even go out to a movie because of her mother’s care needs or because she is too tired. Even though she has eliminated most leisure activities with Mark, Jacqueline goes to bed at night with many of her caregiving tasks unfinished. She tries to visit with her mother during the day, but her mother rejects any contact with her daughter. Planning for the upcoming holidays seems impossible to Mark, because of his wife’s inability to focus on anything except her mother’s care.

Jacqueline has difficulty sleeping at night and is unable to discuss plans even a few days in advance. She is unable to visit friends and is reluctant to have friends visit because of the unpredictable behavior of her mother and her need to attend to the daily care.

Reflective Questions

1. How do you think this situation reflects Jacqueline’s sense of role performance?

2. How do you think that Jacqueline may be contributing to her own health?
