Three Paragraph Essay

/in /by

Your assignment is to attempt a psychoanalytic interpretation of George Benderman, the protagonist in Kafka’s short story, The Judgment. This must include, but need not be limited to, an analysis of the oedipal issues or themes expressed in the story.

Note: The protagonist of the story is a grown man. Therefore, you will not see a portrayal of the oedipal stage itself. What you are looking for are signs of persisting (unresolved) oedipal issues.

Remember the basic oedipal themes:

  • attachment to the opposite-sex parent – attachment that has erotic overtones or is otherwise ‘passionate’ (libidinal cathexis)
  • rivalry with the same-sex parent (aggressive cathexis)
    • a wish to eliminate and replace said parent, perhaps even murderous impulses
    • intense fear of reprisal/punishment at the hands of said parent
      The “natural” story would involve either the son’s defeat/destruction of the father, followed by intense guilt and self-inflicted punishment, or else the son’s defeat/destruction by the father. Of course, in ordinary life the conflicts are nearly always resolved without coming to such a pass.
      As the original oedipal crisis is (more or less) resolved, these wishes are repressed. If the resolution is successful, then the child relinquishes the craving for the opposite-sex parent and identifies with the same-sex parent. This entails taking on many of that parent’s qualities and values – resulting, among other things, in the “birth” of the superego. The child grows up to be an adult who can express the instinctual drives in appropriate ways – love and work. To the extent that the resolution is incomplete or unsuccessful, oedipal issues persist. However, they are likely to be disguised. These “disguises” may involve elements of primary process thinking (e.g., symbolization, condensation). They will also involve the use of defense mechanisms, protecting the individual against awareness of these anxiety-producing wishes and fears.
      Among the possible signs of unresolved oedipal issues are the following:
  • continued excessive attachment to/dependence on the opposite-sex parent – or possibly a reaction-formation against such attachment (e.g., severing all ties)
  • difficulty forming mature romantic/sexual relationships, including marriage (incomplete displacement of libido onto other love-objects)
  • continued hostility toward the same-sex parent, probably blended with fear – or possibly a reaction-formation against such hostility (e.g., solicitude)
  • problems with authority figures of one’s own gender, especially older ones. Perhaps:
    • excessive subservience (coupled with resentment)
    • self-defeating rebelliousness
  • difficulty taking on adult social roles (e.g., employment), especially if it involves:
    • surpassing parental achievements
    • detaching from one’s parents
  • intense guilt and neurotic anxiety over the expression of desire, produced by a punitive superego (internalized same-sex parent). Perhaps:
    • guilt/anxiety surrounding sexuality (love), which may be rigidly repressed or expressed in impulsive or otherwise self-defeating ways
    • guilt/anxiety surrounding behavior that might be taken as competitive with the same-sex parent (work)
  • inappropriate guilt over signs of weakness, injury, or illness in the same-sex parent (as if one were responsible: as if one’s unconscious infantile aggressive wishes were the cause)
  • Of course, no single individual will express all of these characteristics. One looks for two or three, or perhaps even for one that is very vividly present.

In reading The Judgment, be aware that this is not a realistic depiction of events. Rather, it is a highly subjective, almost dream-like or hallucinatory account – a strange hybrid of objective actuality with personal experiencing. The very first paragraph provides a clue to this, as each successive sentence moves further away from physical reality, further toward the fantastic intrapsychic sphere. Expect to see signs of primary process breaking through the surface story. Try to follow the permutations of the father-son relationship. When something unexpected happens, ask yourself: How might this reflect oedipal dynamics on a primary process level?

This assignment is a good opportunity to use a three paragraph essay format in a coherent fashion.

Psychology Of Learning Paper-

/in /by

NO PLAGIARISM!! Do NOT send me papers that have been used or pre-written for anyone else!! These papers will be checked for plagiarism!

 

Must have access to this book! You are to choose a personal behavior you want to either stop or begin. Using one or more of the learning theories described in the text, you are to create and implement a treatment plan. (Theories of human learning: What the professor said, (6 th edition). Belmont, CA: Thompson. 

Author: Lefrancois, G.)

 

The paper should be written according to the following guidelines:

1. Section I—a description of the behavior you want to stop or start and the goals you are establishing regarding this behavior. When you describe the behavior make sure to support your point by citing research findings from other sources (research articles). Also, a description is required of the strategy/treatment plan that you are going to implement. This description should include an explanation of why you have chosen the particular learning theory(s) from the textbook and how you anticipate applying them to your situation. Cite research findings wherever applicable.

2. Section II—a report on the results. After completing section I, you need to implement the treatment plan for a minimum of three weeks, after which you will report on the results in terms of whether goals were met, what adjustments you made, and what you learned from this process. Whether it brought any changes in your motivation, cognition or general lifestyle.

The grade is based more on the content of the treatment plan and what was learned from the process and whether or not there was success in stopping or starting the behavior.

The length of the paper should be of at least 3 pages (double spaced) plus a reference page. Cite at least 5 findings from external sources (research articles). All cited sources should be listed in the paper and on the reference page. APA formatting.

Define and provide a research example of each of the following: shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules, and one-trial learning.

WK 3 DQ 2-Explain the Role of Memory in Learning

Watch the following videos in the Week Three Media Enhancements link: “Memory Processes,” “Storage and Recall,” “Study of Memory,” “Stages of Memory,” “Amnesia and the PDP Model,” and “Memory and Changes in the Brain”. How do theorists in the four major psychological theories explain the role of memory in learning?

 

WK 4 DQ 1-The Role of Motivation in Learning

How do theorists in the four major psychological theories explain the role of motivation in learning?

WK 4 DQ 2-The Relationship between Motivation and Learning

Which learning theory best explains the relationship between motivation and learning? What are the strengths of that theory that make it more explanatory than the other theories? What are the weaknesses?

 

WK 5 DQ 1-The Transfer Process

Discuss the transfer process in a workplace of your choosing.

WK 5 DQ 2-Analyze specific factors in the transfer of learning.

Please define the two theories you choose and use examples of the specific factors you analyze.

 

WK 6 DQ 1-Ethical plans for self-regulation

Transfer of training ethics

Professional psychologists serve their corporate, agency, and individual clients most effectively when they can assist people in directing their own learning. Some critics may argue that transferring training responsibilities from the employer to the employee can create ethical and legal dilemmas; for example, self-trained employees may miss important safety considerations that result in possible injuries to themselves or customers. 

How might ethical plans for self-regulation be constructed by behaviorist, social cognitive, information processing, and constructivist theorists?

Practicum Proposal for MSN – leadership student.

/in /by

Question description

Description:

This is a case study of a student who is in the last semester of her master’s in nursing in nursing leadership. In order to proceed with the practicum, she must present a “practicum proposal”. The practicum proposal is a scholarly paper that must be written in APA format with perfect grammar, as it will be presented to her professor and preceptor. The entire paper should have a tone that constantly refers to the importance of EBP in nursing leadership. Please have a title page and a reference page, and include at least 5 references that have been written within the last 5 years.

Practicum details:

Student: 30 year old female BSN/RN, finishing her master’s degree in health systems leadership.

Preceptor: COO with an MBA, MSN (nursing), and has held several nursing leadership positions.

Setting: The setting of this practicum is in the Hospice/Palliative care/Home health. The agency provides all those services.

Required sections of the paper & details:

SECTION 1 – Introduction. I finished the first paragraph of the introduction. Please complete the second paragraph of the introduction, and describe the reason why the essay is being written. Below is the first section that I completed:

The growth of the nursing profession over the last several decades can be described as impressive. The nurse’s expanding and developing role in the complex healthcare environment is awe inspiring to say the least. Nurses’ have gone from providing bedside care in the trenches of society, to clinical specialist, and now regarded as proven leaders in the board room. Due to this growth and rapid development, the nurse’s role continues to be pioneered, developed, and refined. Most recently, and most notably, nurses with advanced degrees and clinical specialties are continuously pioneering the restructuring of their role within healthcare systems. For this reason, the practical aspect of a nurse’s education continues to be essential in the process of bridging the gap between theoretical education and its implementation at the point-of-care. The practical aspect of nursing education has historically relied on the nurse-preceptor to assist the student-nurse in the processes of synthesizing the learned theoretical principles into their practice. As a result of this vital role filled by the nurse-preceptor, the preceptor-student interaction must continue to develop within the principles of Evidence Based Practice (EBP), and held to the same standards as that of theoretical nursing education.

SECTION 2- Goals of the practicum. Described the goals of the practicum. AKA what will the graduate student nursing leader learn from the practicum (paragraph 1). Goals should be written from the perspective of the student, clearly stated and relate to the practicum objective and specialty track outcomes.

Please describe at least 5 goals of the practicum in a table with the SMART goals format.

SECTION 3- Anticipated activities to meet goals should be described. (See provided information in the last section as reference point).

SECTION 4 – Describe the role of the preceptor during the practicum. Including practicum project and activities.

SECTION 5 – Describe the setting. Please infer from provided information.

SECTION 6 – Project proposal: The student in this case study is required to conduct a project. The student in this case study has been assigned by her preceptor to work with the director of the home health division of the organization. The project will be for the student to assist the director of the home health division of the organization in the process of being a nursing leader which includes all of the daily aspects of nursing leadership like budget development, managing staff, marketing, scheduling, billing, etc.

SECTION 5 – Discussion/conclusion.

Assignment Overview

There have been many cases of violations of ethical principles in medical and public health history. It is important to study these and understand not only what went wrong, but the implications of a failure to follow ethical principles, to ensure that these things do not happen again.

**Case Assignment

For this assignment, you will be creating a PowerPoint presentation. Three cases are listed below. For each case, you will provide a background and then apply at least the 4 basic ethical principles reviewed thus far in the course; you may research and apply additional ones. For each principle, explain why it was violated in this case. If you do not believe that the principle was violated, explain why. This should not be opinion, but should be your analysis of the cases and the principles; do not use first person.

*Your slides should be in presentation format and your text should be in your speaker’s notes. You must include speaker’s notes. Remember to cite your sources.

*You will need to research the cases below. Be sure that you are using reliable sources for your information; peer-reviewed articles, academic books, government web pages and documents. You may use newspaper articles, but these should not be your principle and only source to discuss an individual case.

  • The Tuskegee Experiment
  • Henrietta Lacks and the development of the HeLa cell line
  • Nazi Medical Experiments

Assignment Expectations

  1. Conduct additional research to gather sufficient information to support your analysis.
  2. Your presentation should have at least 6 slides, as well as a cover slide and reference slide.
  3. Support your presentation with peer-reviewed articles, and use at least 6 references. For additional information on how to recognize peer-reviewed journals, see http://www.angelo.edu/services/library/handouts/peerrev.php

CASE STUDY (DAVID)

David is a 52-year-old White male who has spent the last 24 years in the human resource field. Most recently, he held the position of supervisor in the billing department of a midsized hospital in a rural state. He worked hard to obtain a master’s degree while on the job at the hospital and always had high aspirations for himself professionally David has three children from his first marriage, which ended in divorce. His first wife Anne, who is 50, works as a preschool teacher in another part of the state. Their children’s ages are 16, 20, and 22. Both older children started to attend college but may have to drop out temporarily due to financial difficulties. David feels that it is his responsibility to support his children’s education, and he has been paying as much of their tuition as he can afford. David and his second wife live in a new, but modest home in a community on the outskirts of the state capital close to David’s job. David’s second wife, Sandy, has twin 14-year-old boys. One of the twins has a serious learning disability and needs extra tutoring and a great deal of parent support to keep up academically. Sandy works part time in a department store to be home to help her sons. David and Sandy have a good relationship. Sandy’s widowed mother lives nearby and helps with the twins on a regular basis.

Recently, the hospital system that employs David merged with a large network of medical providers to cut costs and use resources more efficiently. David’s job at the hospital is becoming more complicated, requiring more and more processing of information that involves advanced computer technology. At a recent professional meeting, David learned from others in his network that many jobs were being cut and many tasks redistributed to the employees that remained. David feels that this has already happened in his workplace. He has noted a dramatic increase in the amount of paperwork required and a distinct decrease in the time allotted to meet deadlines. His supervisory responsibilities have expanded to include workers from another unit that merged with his own in a major departmental realignment. David’s direct supervisor will be retiring soon, and David will be a candidate for that position. He knows that this promotion would mean more income, but it would also mean even more work responsibility. David now spends his weekends going to the office to catch up on tasks. He is not as available as he once was to spend time with his children, and this has caused some problems in his relationship with his wife. He is starting to feel that all the paperwork his job requires is not meaningful in ways that are important to him.

David has recently begun to suffer from significant pain in his lower back that he believes might be related to a traffic accident that happened when he was younger. The pain keeps him from sleeping well and has contributed to his feeling more “on edge” during the day. David’s physician prescribes two medications to help him sleep better and to reduce anxiety. David has started to drink a few beers when he comes home at night to “calm himself down” as well. The sleep medication he has been taking helps him fall asleep, but now he wakes up at 3:00 am with his mind racing. He’s recently learned that his 16-year-old son has been cutting classes and failing tests. His ex-wife, who has custody of their teenage son, has been pressuring him to help her with this problem situation.

Discussion Questions

1.

Identify the risks and protective factors that are present in David’s life story. What information, not presented here, would be helpful to know if you were to make a more comprehensive list of risks and protections?

2.

How do you conceptualize David’s situation? What aspects are relate to his midlife stage?

3.

What treatment approach would you take if he were to come to you for help? What other behavioral changes might you suggest?

Module 2 Assignment 2 The Relationship Between Faith And Doubt

/in /by

Assignment 2: Unless I See, I Will Not Believe: The Relationship between Faith and Doubt

The words faith and doubt are easy to define, but they are much more difficult to live with. Faith is the belief in what is unseen or unsubstantiated in the physical sense as if it were in fact reality. Doubt is a particularly difficult concept for organized religions to handle—the doubts of a handful of believers, or even a single believer, can lead to a major change in a religion. Thus, as humans are we destined to doubt by human nature?

In an essay of 700 to 800 words, discuss the relationship between doubt and faith.

In your essay, address the following questions:

    • What do the terms faith and doubt mean to religious philosophers?

 

    • How do you define faith and doubt in the context of your life?

 

    • What is the difference between saying, “I believe that,” and “I believe in”?

 

    • Is faith, in the religious sense, a matter of opinion or of trust?

 

    • Are faith and doubt incompatible? Are they opposite or complementary?

 

  • Discuss the religious tradition (of the five options) where faith is most prevalent. Where doubt is the most prevalent. Do these religions offer insight into your own faith/doubt equation?

Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M2_A2.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M2_A2. doc.

By Wednesday, April 13, 2016 deliver your assignment to the M2: Assignment 2 Dropbox.

Assignment 2: LASA 1: Legal And Ethical Leadership And Management

/in /by

Mathis, Inc. is a designer and manufacturer of women’s clothing and specializes in high-end women’s winter fashions. Normandale, a retailer, sells high-end products in malls throughout the country. With Mathis’s high costs, Normandale is unable to make a profit from the sale of Mathis’s products.

Countess Lori-Ann (CLA) is a Mathis competitor. Normandale sends photographs and samples of the Mathis line to CLA and instructs them to make an identical line at a lower price. Mathis labels are easily discernable in the photographs and the samples have the Mathis label attached. CLA copies the Mathis line for Normandale.

CLA sells the clothing to Normandale at a low price allowing Normandale to sell the products for a total gross profit of nearly $3 million, an increase of nearly 50% over its sale of Mathis products. Mathis discovers that Normandale is selling counterfeit products, and sends several cease-and-desist letters to them—to no avail. Mathis then sues Normandale alleging Normandale has engaged in illegal conduct. Normandale counters that it did nothing wrong.

Research business law in regard to protection of intellectual property using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet. Based on the facts of the case and research, write an analytical paper. In the paper, respond to the following questions:

  • Was it ethical for Normandale to sell the alleged knock-off products at a lower price? Explain.
  • What federal or state laws protect owners of intellectual property?  How do they apply here? Explain.
  • What damages, if any, has Mathis suffered because of Normandale’s conduct? Explain.
  • What are the differing views on the social responsibility of corporations like Normandale?
  • What ethical code could Normandale implement to prevent similar incidents in the future?
  • Do the owners of Normandale have personal liability to Mathis for damages?  Explain.
  • Do the owners of Normandale have personal criminal liability for their conduct and that of the business?  Explain.

Write a five-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards for writing style to your work.

Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M3_A2.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M3_A2.doc.
