CISD

Critical incident stress debriefing (CISD) is a part of CISM, which was developed to assist in managing the aftermath of traumatic experiences within organizations and communities. It is not psychotherapy and is not intended to replace psychotherapy. CISD is typically conducted within a few days of a critical incident to assist those exposed to the incident process and deal with what they have been exposed to. CISD has specific steps and requires a person to be trained to conduct it competently, but it does not require a mental health background.

Tasks:

Using the module’s readings, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, research the CISD process.

Create a 6- to 7-page paper responding to the following:

  • Summarize CISM and CISD.
  • Discuss the relevant literature on the efficacy of CISM and CISD.
  • Identify the existing literature that questions the utility of CISM and CISD and offer your opinion on this debate.
  • Compare and contrast CISD and psychological first aid (PFA).
  • Discuss how peer-provided support can be maximized in a traumatic response situation. Give reasons in support of your response. Be sure to cite any relevant resources.

APA FORMAT AT LEAST 3 INTEXT CITATIONS.

Assessment Instructions

According to De Leersnyder, Boiger, and Mesquita (2013), “The most prevalent and intense emotional experiences differ across cultures. These differences in emotional experience can be understood as the outcomes of emotion regulation, because emotions that fit valued relationships within a culture have a tendency to be most common and intense. There is evidence that suggests emotional regulation and underlying cultural differences in emotional experiences exist. These regulatory processes depend on individual tendencies, but are also co-regulated within relationships” (p. 55).

Psyc 221 Psychology Learning Reflection Journal

150 150 admin

INSTRUCTIONS:

Weekly Journals: During each of the assigned weeks, you will write two paragraphs, each 300 words in length (i.e., 600 words total). The first paragraph will describe a topic that you found particularly interesting during that week and what made it interesting, and the second paragraph will describe something that you have observed occurring in the real world that exemplified that topic. 

Only one topic may be recorded in the journal for each assigned week and the observed real word occurrence must be clearly related to it

Readings for this week include Chapter 11 and Chapter 12. 

Chapter 11 focuses on male-female differences, reveals how characteristics that are obviously heavily influenced by biology cannot be fully understood without also taking into account social, developmental, and cultural influences on personality. This chapter provides empirical evidence to address these questions: Are there gender-based psychological differences? What is the etiology (causal origin) of these differences? How do different personality theories explain how these differences emerge and how they are maintained?

Chapter 12 focuses on healthy and unhealthy personalities, a popular topic of interest to students. Is it true that worriers get headaches, and repressed women get breast cancer? Are there general cancer-prone personalities and coronary-prone personalities? Are there self-healing personalities who manage to live a long and healthy life? This chapter examines the relations among personality, stress, adjustment, and health.

By considering personality in an applied sphere like health, we are following the advice of Kurt Lewin, Gordon Allport, Sigmund Freud, Carl Rogers and other great theorists that the individual is best understood when studied in a real-world social context.

How does the diathesis-stress model account for psychopathology?

150 150 admin

You need both a vulnerability and a stressful situation to develop mental illness

Psychopathy is literally illness of the mind, the development of which can be explained using the diathesis-stress model.

The diathesis-stress model states that you have to have both a vulnerability (diathesis) to a particular condition, and an environmental stressor or stressful situation to push you over the edge to develop mental illness.

The vulnerability or susceptibility to a particular condition, such as , could be biological or genetic. For example, if your family has a history of schizophrenia, there’s a good chance that you could develop it too, although this genetic diathesis isn’t enough on its own.

You also need an emotionally challenging situation, such as a divorce, migration or abuse. This is called the environmental stressor, and is required to activate the diathesis. (Without any diathesis, it is not possible for just a stressor to cause a condition to develop.)

i need you to answer the following question with 5 lines for each answer. i will need it in less than 5 hours. only 4 of them so the tottal would be 2 pages only. 

1.     What are philosophical zombies? What is the difference between the philosophical zombie version of you, and the you that is existing right now in the actual world? Can somebody use philosophical zombies to show that qualia are necessary for consciousness? Explain why or why not.

2.     Explain what the Chinese Room Experiment is, as put forward by John Searle. How is this experiment supposed to show that the functionalist view of mind/consciousness is wrong? Searle seems to be saying that something is missing in the way that the Chinese Room functions, and that because of this missing thing, we cannot say that the room actually understands Chinese. What is this thing that is supposed to be missing? Does this experiment succeed in showing that the functionalist view is wrong? Explain your answer, one way or the other.

3.     Explain the example of Mary in the black-and-white room, as put forward by Frank Jackson. Does Mary learn something new about the world when she steps out of the room for the first time? What is this something new that she learns? How is this example supposed to show that physicalism is wrong? Does this example succeed in showing us that we are conscious beings who can act on the physical world and change this world? Explain your answer, one way or the other.

4.     What are the three features that distinguish romantic love from other, non-romantic kinds of love, according to Robert Solomon? Very often, during the first phases of falling in love with somebody, we form an idealized, perfect image of him or her that often proves to be a false image once we get to know that person better. Does this mean that the first phases of love are not “true” love, but only love that is based on a fantasy? Explain your answer, one way or the other.

5.     Explain what the Look of the Other is for Jean-Paul Sartre, and how this look alienates us. How is romantic love supposed to offer us a refuge from this Look?

150 150 admin

  1. Read the chosen articles
  2. Summarize the articles

3.     Reflect on what the articles mean to you, what thoughts or feelings were generated.  (If you stopped here, you would be submitting a reflection paper.)

·       What is your reaction to the content of the articles?

·       How do the articles relate to one another?

·       What did you learn about violence & abuse in childhood?

  1. Now you are ready to begin writing your analysis paper.  Create a thesis statement or argument that you will defend using the articles to justify your points.  In essence, you take a stance on a particular issue, supported by 3-4 points supported by the literature.Your thesis statement is often the last sentence of your opening introductory paragraph.  Often, your thesis statement will be a “should” statement (e.g. social workers should take a feminist perspective when talking about the cause of physical abuse).  You then make your 3-4 points, using the literature to support your argument and linking the paragraphs together to make one seamless argument.
  2. Conclude with a summary of your argument and your major points as well as a brief discussion of how your argument impacts the clients you serve.

SIDE NOTE: I am providing you the articles. Please put together the ones ending CR3 into one paper 2-3 pages and the Extra into another paper 2-3 pages.

Evaluation will be based on how clearly you respond to the above, in particular:

a)    The clarity with which you critique the articles;

b)    The depth, scope, and organization of your paper; and,

c)     Your conclusions, including a description of the impact of these articles on your thoughts about family violence.

Careers in PsychologyThis assignment has two major sections.  However, you will be creating a single document for submission.

  • In Section I, you will read the case scenarios of three adults who are about to complete their bachelor’s degree in psychology and provide responses based on your reading and research to address the concerns in the scenarios.
  • In Section II, you will evaluate yourself and rate your own credentials in terms of your readiness for the next step after obtaining your bachelor’s degree, should you be interested in pursuing your education further.
  • Please label the sections as Section I and Section II in your document.

Section I Use the information presented in Chapter 8 of your course text as well as the required websites to assist you in addressing the scenarios. You will also need to do some additional research. Recommended websites are provided and you will find useful information on the websites of graduate programs in psychology and other mental health-related fields.

  1. Denise has decided she wants to counsel children and adolescents. She has a modest amount of interest in reading research findings that are relevant to counseling children and youth. She has little interest in conducting research. She is exploring the following options for her degree after her bachelor’s degree:
    • Master of Arts/ Master of Science in Clinical Psychology
    • Master of Arts/ Master of Science in Counseling Psychology
    • Master of Education in Counseling Psychology
    • Master of Social Work
    • Master of Science in Pastoral Counseling
    • Master of Science in Counseling.

Now, as a senior who is months away from graduation, Raul is trying to decide what his next academic and career steps should be. He has a moderate interest in research but does not care much for writing papers. He could see himself teaching, if necessary, but it is not his passion. He already has a wife and two children, so earning potential is important to him.
    • What advice would you give Raul based on the information from this week’s resources?
