Future Psychological Testing: Vulnerable Populations

(Future Psychological Testing)

Future psychological testing for vulnerable populations will likely prioritize cultural sensitivity, accessibility, and inclusivity. This entails developing assessments that account for diverse backgrounds, languages, and experiences to ensure accurate evaluations across populations. Technology will play a significant role, enabling remote testing options and tailored interventions based on individual needs. Emphasis will be placed on ethical considerations, such as informed consent, confidentiality, and minimizing harm, especially for those with limited capacity to advocate for themselves. Integration of emerging fields like neuroscience and artificial intelligence may enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. Additionally, there will be a shift towards holistic assessments, considering social determinants of health and systemic factors impacting mental well-being. Collaboration between psychologists, healthcare providers, policymakers, and community stakeholders will be crucial to address disparities and improve access to mental health services. Ultimately, future psychological testing for vulnerable populations aims to foster resilience, empower individuals, and promote equitable mental healthcare delivery.

PowerPoint

Select a special population of interest from the following list:

  1. Domestic violence victims
  2. Clients with questions about their sexual orientation
  3. Human trafficking victims
  4. Clients with suicidal ideation
  5. Clients who self-harm

Hypothesize the future of psychological testing for your selected population.

Create a 7-10-slide presentation about your population that includes the following:

  1. A description of the tests and assessments currently in use
  2. Changes to the tests and assessments you would like to see
  3. Explain any procedures related to reporting abuse, duty to warn, or victims’ rights
  4. Detailed speaker notes as if you are giving the presentation in person

Week1/3 Virg: EBP Question Development: PICOT Framework

(EBP Question Development)

he first step of the EBP process is to develop a question from the nursing practice problem of interest.

Select a practice problem of interest to use as the focus of your research.

Start with the patient and identify the clinical problems or issues that arise from clinical care.

Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT statement in your selected practice problem area of interest, which is applicable to your proposed capstone project.

The PICOT statement will provide a framework for your capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).

Conduct a literature search to locate research articles focused on your selected practice problem of interest. This literature search should include both quantitative and qualitative peer-reviewed research articles to support your practice problem.

Select six peer-reviewed research articles which will be utilized through the next 5 weeks as reference sources. Be sure that some of the articles use qualitative research and that some use quantitative research. Create a reference list in which the six articles are listed. Beneath each reference include the article’s abstract. The completed assignment should have a title page and a reference list with abstracts.

Suggestions for locating qualitative and quantitative research articles from credible sources:

  1. Use a library database such as CINAHL Complete for your search.
  2. Using the advanced search page check the box beside “Research Article” in the “Limit Your Results” section.
  3. When setting up the search you can type your topic in the top box, then add quantitative or qualitative as a search term in one of the lower boxes. Research articles often are described as qualitative or quantitative.

To narrow/broaden your search, remove the words qualitative and quantitative and include words that narrow or broaden your main topic. For example: Diabetes and pediatric and dialysis. To determine what research design was used, review the abstract and the methods section of the article. The author will provide a description of data collection using qualitative or quantitative methods.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Colonialism And Neutral Parties

/in , , /by

Topic: Colonialism and Neutral Parties

(Colonialism And Neutral Parties)

Question/Prompt: Choose one of the five prompts below on which to discuss.

 

  1. The Colonialist model is intent on proclaiming the superiority of theology over psychology (nearly to the exclusion of psychology, in some cases). What aspects of the relationship of theology and psychology can you affirm in this model, and what do you think is in need of critique?
  2. The Colonialist model ostensibly recognizes the value of psychology, but it does not typically result in deep engagement with the findings or methods of psychology. How might this be applied to a topic such as eating disorders or depression? What would be some of the advantages and disadvantages of this approach?
  3. Entwistle distinguishes between scriptural authority and theological interpretation. Do you agree? Why might this distinction be important? Support your view with an example.
  4. Why do people who adopt a Neutral Parties model think that we should keep theology out of psychology, and why do their critics contend that it is dangerous to keep theology out of psychology? Which is the stronger position? Use an example to support your view.
  5. The Neutral Parties model is intent on proclaiming the independence of psychology from any ideology, including Christian theology. What about the relationship of theology and psychology can you affirm in this model, and what do you think is in need of critique?

 

At least 500 words in response to the provided prompt. You must support your assertions with at least 3 citations in current APA format. You may use the course textbook Chp 10 Entwistle and Chp 2, 4, 6 Johnson and scholarly articles only and the Bible as sources.

Nursing Spiritual Needs: Cultural Sensitivity & Patient Advocacy

(Nursing Spiritual Needs)

Please Do A Comment Base In This Answers. Write At Least 140 Words In Each Answer, Take Reference From (2013-2018) If Is Possible, Academic References . SUSTANTIVE POST NEEDED

Comment 1

Spiritual needs are one of the essential needs among individuals. Throughout the life, the spiritual needs are an intrinsic need and remain as a primary element of holistic nursing care. Nurses face a great challenge of satisfying the spiritual needs of the patient. The holistic care addresses the spiritual needs, social, physical, economic and emotional needs of the patient (Nolan, 2015). The religious intervention involves treating the religious beliefs of the patients without prejudice, helping them practice their religion, giving them an opportunity to connect with God as well as expressing their beliefs and values and referring them to religious leaders and clerical.

According to me, the spiritual care is supporting and acknowledging a person religious beliefs. Respecting them and ensuring that their wishes are followed. It involves bringing glory to God. A practitioner may give spiritual care through praying with the patient, providing a word of encouragement, being present and listen to the patient, sharing from the scriptures, participating in the healing service and referring them to the religious leaders. I believe that the Holy Spirit guides the practitioners when making the challenging decisions. Reading the scriptures and praying makes the healthcare provider stronger as well as close to God and are able to make a decision based on God’s plan. The religious leaders are supposed to teach their followers concerning the spiritual care.

Comment 2

Spiritual worldview concept incorporates spirituality, religion and other philosophical and reference points, which make assumptions concerning the bigger context of human existence (Josephson, 2015). As a professional nurse, I try to keep aside my personal views as well as not compare them with that of the patient. This helps me to concentrate on the assignment and patient needs. I may not agree with the patient spiritual belief, but I show interest in their perspective. Dealing with a patient whose worldview differs from mine, my strengths would include: facilitating expressions as well as the articulation of patient’s desires, values, beliefs and needs that shape choices and interactions of the patient. Encourage the patient to share their hopes, fears, and creative expressions. Engage with the patient experience and encourage him/her to express the full range of the feelings and emotions.

There is also weakness that I may face as the healthcare provider. Being unfamiliar with some culture is a barrier since some ideas of the patient I might see them as taboo. Uncertainty, as well as the fear of the general medical practitioners, may be a barrier since some may want to listen to what the patient may want to share. Lack of privacy is another barrier since some patient could wish to express their perspective in private but when there are other patients, he/she holds back. As a patient, I have the final say during the difficult situation. Once I understand the risks, and the benefits of a particular treatment will enable decide what I want. The practitioner is supposed to support me during the decision-making process. In case am in a situation that I cannot be able to make the decision, I may want my doctor to do it for me.
