Analyzing Basic Applied Research

There are very different views of what types of evidence are most credible in evaluating the effectiveness of psychological treatment research. In this discussion you will analyze basic applied psychological research as well as evaluate how researchers applied a research process in the development of specific components. To begin, read the following articles (which can be accessed through the ProQuest database in the Ashford University Library):“Evidence-Based Practice in Psychology: Implications for Research and Research Training”“Practice-Based Evidence: Back to the Future”“Psychological Treatments: Putting Evidence into Practice and Practice into Evidence”

After reading the articles listed above, select two of them.  Analyze the basic applied research within each of your two selected articles by answering the following questions:What is the main point-of-view in each article?What are the primary assumptions each author makes?Which author are you inclined to agree with?  Support your choice with scholarly reasoning and cite your evidence.

You are required to include one peer-reviewed source that was published within the last five years to support your perspective.  You may not use any of the sources that were assigned for this course.  For assistance finding articles view the “Searching for Articles” and the “Peer-Reviewed Articles” tutorials which are available under Tutorials on the Getting Research Help tab at the top of the Ashford University Library homepage.

brief summary of psychology

Provide a brief summary of the psychology program. Report admission requirements, required courses, and pre-admission requirements (as available), and discuss why you are interested. What are the pros and cons of the psychology program as they relate to your lifestyle? Consider variables such as geographic location (South Carolina), cost, etc. Describe what the regulatory and licensure requirements may be for psychology (e.g., if your chosen field of study is law school, visit your state board of law examiners website to learn what the requirements are for practicing as a lawyer in your state).

Human Services Models

  Human Services Models

There are many different types of human services providers and agencies serving clients. An understanding of the different theoretical models to these services will make you familiar with how clients are served in various agency settings, to prepare you for what you might encounter in nonprofit agencies.

In this assignment, you will explore the different approaches to human services delivery. You will also research the roles of nonprofit agencies.

Tasks:

There are competing models of human services approaches. Many of these models are examined in this module. Using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, research these models further.

Demonstrate your understanding of two competing models by responding to the following: Discuss the Rational-Legal model with relevant examples of two types of human services agencies currently using this approach. Discuss the differences between the human services approach and the Political-Economy model. You should emphasize the influence each approach has on direct service delivery. Discuss the primary role of nonprofit agencies in human services.

CH 12 DISCUSSION

NEED THIS DONE BY 12/4/2018

you’ll be doing a “mini research paper”. The National Institute for Mental Health has an abundance of information about mental health and mental illness. Pick a topic from their topics list and explore their information. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/index.shtml

THE TOPIC I CHOOSE WAS DEPRESSION

1. What is the topic you chose? 

2. Give us 4 interesting symptoms/pieces of information that are related to your topic. 

3. What are some 2-3 interest stats regarding your topic? (scroll down to the bottom of the page to find links to statistics on your topic) 

4. Mental health still carries a stigma. What are some ways we can help to eliminate the stigma of being diagnosed with a mental illness? (you may want to explore this website: https://bringchange2mind.org). 

Feel free to add any more interesting tidbits you discover about the topic you chose. Look around the websites and learn some more about mental health. 

Remember that this needs to be like a research paper. a minimum of 5 paragraphs and you need to include some citations and any references you use (you’ll need to include the NIMH website link for your chosen topic and any other sites you used).

UNDERSTANDING RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION

Conduct an Internet search to examine Web sites on response to intervention (RTI).Review the article “Determining Responsiveness to School Counseling Interventions Using Behavioral Observations” from your studies. ATTACHED

Then, construct a response to the following:How does Response to Intervention (RTI) support the success of students both academically and behaviorally?What are the differences between RTI and the traditional special education assessment model?What is the role of the school counselor in RTI?Because RTI has replaced the traditional special education assessment model in many states, it is often thought of as onlybeing for this purpose. How would you explain to parents that RTI is not specifically for determining special education eligibility but rather is a general education initiative designed to support all students?

1) Which factors or range of issues need to be considered when incorporating cultural information into the program development, implementation, and evaluation for your health issue, keeping in mind your target population?

 

2) Please state which theory/model/assessment framework you will use to design your culturally-sensitive health program for your target population. Explain how this theory/model/assessment framework will help in the development of your program.
