Blinking Focus: Attentional Phenomenon

(Blinking Focus: Attentional Phenomenon)

Attentional Blink

There are many stimuli in your environment of which you are not aware. You use attention to filter out unimportant stimuli and focus on relevant stimuli. However, there are circumstances under which you cannot perceive stimuli, regardless of how hard you “pay attention.” One situation is when visual stimuli are presented in quick succession. If the interval between the two stimuli is short enough, you do not perceive the second stimulus. This lapse in attention is known as attentional blink. In this assignment, you will experience the attentional blink for yourself and will also read about practical implications of the phenomenon.

Access the CogLab demonstration Attentional Blink. Follow the instructions to complete the demonstration.

Read the following article:

Using the experience from the CogLab demonstration and information from the article, write a paper that addresses the following:

  • Explain how the attentional blink relates to attention. Analyze how the variation in time influences the probability of seeing the second target letter. Explain the circumstances under which the attentional blink can be eliminated.
  • In the CogLab demonstration, letters were used as targets. The target used can influence the duration of one’s attentional blink and whether the attentional blink even occurs. Complete the following tasks:
    • Propose at least two other targets that could be used to induce the attentional blink.
    • Predict the effect each of your suggested targets would have on the duration of one’s attentional blink as compared to the CogLab activity you completed.
    • Explain the reasoning behind your predictions.
  • Present and discuss at least three occupations in which workers’ performance could be adversely affected by attentional blink. Identify and explain the types of problems or mistakes that might occur in such occupations due to the attentional blink.
  • Several years ago, some vehicle models came with a heads-up display (HUD). Instead of looking down at a panel on the dashboard, speed, distance traveled, fuel level, and time appeared to be displayed over the hood of the car. Discuss this design in terms of divided attention and attentional blink. Do you think the design was a good idea?

Community Center: Developmental Delights

/in , , /by

Community Center: Developmental Delights

(Community Center: Developmental Delights)

Your community is opening a brand new community center.  Now that you are an expert in the field, you have been chosen to lead a development team that will create a proposal for interactive, fun, and educational programming activities that will be provided for children and adolescents in this center.  Utilize problem-solving techniques in exploring developmental issues, grounded in child development, in order to assess what activities and items should be included in each program. Once you have chosen these features, you will present your ideas to a mock city council board (i.e. your instructor) with both a written proposal describing the programming, as well as an interactive presentation that will illustrate your ideas for promoting continued learning throughout childhood and adolescence.

You have been asked to propose programming for five different age groups in the community center:

  • Infant (0-1 year)
  • Toddler (1-3 years)
  • Early Childhood (3-6 years)
  • Middle/Late Childhood (7-12 years)
  • Adolescence (13-18 years)

There are two parts to your final project; a written proposal (Part A) and a visual presentation (Part B).  In Part A, you will be creating a written proposal in which you identify and describe at least two weekly activities for each age group (for a total of 10 activities) that address their developmental pathways: physical, cognitive, and psychosocial.  All three domains of development must be addressed within your classes or activities.  For example, you may have one activity which enhances cognitive and psychosocial development and a second activity which enhances physical development. In addition to identifying these activities, you will demonstrate a foundational knowledge of the age group’s developmental continuum by explaining your reasoning for choosing each activity, based on your analysis of theory and current child development research.

Additionally, you will go “shopping” for at least one age-appropriate game, toy, picture, or other “play” item to enhance the chosen activities within each age group. Keep in mind that this may include things like art, music, technology, or safety gear as you deem fit.  For each item that you recommend, your written proposal will provide a link to a website from which the item can be purchased by the city, as well as an explanation for why the city should purchase the item informed by research and theory.

The overall goal of the written proposal and visual presentation is much like that of a grant proposal, in which a developer must convince the city council that their new business or activity is both cost-effective and beneficial to the community.  You are encouraged to be creative and persuasive in your proposal, but remember that everything must be supported by the theories and research covered in our class. Included in Part A is a Written Proposal Template, demonstrating what information should be included in your written portion of the project.  While you are expected to cite facts and include a reference page in your proposal, these do not need to be read out loud in your final visual presentation.

In addition to the written component of the assignment, Part B will utilize a visual and audio/interactive screencast to share your learning acquisition in child development with the members of a mock city council (again, your instructor will be acting as this council) in an interactive presentation which visually and vocally presents the activities and products which should be available for each age group. Design your community center presentation as if you were guiding a visitor through each activity.  Your presentation will include a picture of each activity (appropriately labeled), while you will utilize a screen casting tool (such as screencast-o-matic.com) to provide the voice-over description of the activity and item(s) to be purchased for the activity.  Below is a sample screencast presentation, demonstrating how your own presentation might look and what you might say in your proposal. (Please note that this is a sample only. No part of this video should be used in your own assignment.)

 

Part A: Written Proposal(Community Center: Developmental Delights)
You will utilize the PSY104 Written Proposal template to create your script.  Enter the requested information on the title page where indicated. Where you find the text “This is where you will…” within the proposal, please remove that and enter your own content. The headings in bold and the outline formatting with numbers and letters should not be altered.

In your Written Proposal, you must include the following:

  • Complete each section of the template including the information requested.
  • Within section “iv” for each room, you will be asked to justify your activities and items by analyzing interactions of the major themes: Health and Well-Being, Family and Parenting, Education, Culture and Gender as factors influencing the developmental physical, cognitive and psychosocial pathways.  Your written proposal must address how you have accounted for each of these themes in its associated room as they relate to physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development. Each theme must be included in at least one room, and each room must address one or more themes. (Please see these samples for ways to explain how you have accounted for this.)
  • Cite your sources according to APA style.

Part B: Presentation
In your presentation, you must include the following:

  • A visual presentation which includes:
    • A title slide/image which includes the name of your Community Center, a picture, your name, the course, your instructor’s name, and the date submitted.
    • Ten images representing children’s activities which correspond with what your own Community Center Rooms might look like for each specified age group in your Written Proposal.
  • A 5-minute screencast which includes:
    • A vocal introduction to your Community Center, in which you state a description of the overall goals of the Center and a brief overview of some of the activities found inside.
    • With each of your ten activity images, you should provide very brief vocal summary the activity, what item(s) are needed, and the theory and research supporting your decisions.
    • A vocal conclusion to your presentation, in which you thank the city council and state that this is your official recommendation for these rooms.

You may utilize technology from this list, or any other visual or screencast editing software which you see fit, as long as the instructor will be able to view the presentation without needing to download and/or pay for additional software.

For Visual Presentations:

  • Prezi (recommended)
  • PowerPoint
  • PowToons

For Screencasts:

  • Screencast-O-Matic (recommended)
  • Jing
  • Screenr

Empowering Marginalized Career Paths

Empowering Marginalized Career Paths

(Empowering Marginalized Career Paths)

Empowering Marginalized Career Counseling: Theory & Strategies” focuses on addressing the unique challenges faced by marginalized individuals in their career development. The theory delves into understanding the intersecting factors of identity, including race, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and ability, and how these impact one’s career journey. By acknowledging the systemic barriers that marginalized groups encounter, the counseling strategies aim to empower individuals to navigate and overcome these obstacles.

Key strategies include fostering self-awareness and self-advocacy, providing culturally competent guidance, and offering resources tailored to the specific needs of marginalized communities. This approach emphasizes the importance of validating lived experiences, building confidence, and promoting resilience in the face of adversity.

Additionally, the counseling process incorporates advocacy for systemic change to create more inclusive environments within educational institutions, workplaces, and society at large. By promoting equity and accessibility, marginalized individuals can gain greater agency in shaping their career paths and achieving their professional aspirations. Ultimately, “Empowering Marginalized Career Counseling” seeks to dismantle barriers and promote equity in career development for all individuals, regardless of their background or identity.

 

All I need is the outline for the assignment below. The actual assignment is not due for awhile.

Create an outline for the “Marginalized Group Career Counseling Essay”

Include at least four required scholarly references for the paper in your outline.

Refer to “Four Main Components for Effective Outlines,” located on the Purdue OWL website for help in completing your assignment. https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/544/01/

For this assignment you will select a marginalized group (veterans, minorities, individuals with disabilities, etc.) and write a paper of 1,750 to 2,100 words that can be used as a resource when working with an individual from the selected group. Use peer-reviewed resources to support your use of a specific career theory as well as interventions with this population. The paper should include the following:

  1. An explanation of who the population is and why it is important for this group to receive career counseling
  2. Statistics on the group (e.g., how large, how many have employment problems, how many utilize career counseling)
  3. Discussion of career counseling theory to be used with the group (e.g., Minnesota theory of work adjustment). Include evidence supporting the use of this theory in the general population as well as within the group. Please note: If none are available, it is important to indicate that as well.
  4. Basic plan for counseling utilizing chosen theory (e.g., interview, use of assessment tools, explanation of theory)
  5. Environmental/personal barriers that may prevent the client from finding work (e.g., disability, substance use history, felony, transportation, limited computer access)
  6. Local resources available to help the client obtain work (e.g., job center, training programs, support groups)
  7. Your conclusion on whether or not this plan is tenable and will work, based on the information listed above.
  8. A minimum of four scholarly references.

Factors Influencing Community Health

(Factors Influencing Community Health)

How Do Various Factors Influence Health In Your Community?

Various factors intersect to influence health within a community. Socioeconomic status plays a pivotal role, affecting access to healthcare, nutritious food, and safe housing. Education levels correlate with health outcomes, as higher education often leads to better health literacy and employment opportunities. Environmental factors, such as pollution levels and access to green spaces, impact physical well-being.

Social determinants like race, ethnicity, and gender influence health disparities, with marginalized groups experiencing higher rates of illness and reduced access to care. Behavioral factors, including diet, exercise, and substance use, significantly affect individual and community health outcomes.

Healthcare infrastructure, including the availability of hospitals, clinics, and qualified healthcare professionals, shapes the accessibility and quality of care. Additionally, policies and governance structures influence health through regulations on industries, healthcare funding, and public health initiatives.

Cultural norms and beliefs can impact health behaviors and perceptions of illness, shaping community attitudes towards seeking medical care and preventive measures. Overall, a complex interplay of economic, social, environmental, and cultural factors determines the health status of a community.

How Do Various Factors Influence Health In Your Community?
