Which model do you believe is best suited to manage the current addiction epidemic?

The American Society of Addiction Medicine and the National Institute on Drug Abuse have stated that addiction is a brain disease. However, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reported that there are 4 major dimensions that support a life of recovery:

Health
Home
Purpose
Community

This view is more in line with the Biopsychosocial model. Now, if you conduct a Google search of “Addiction as a Brain Disease”, there are 10-20 times more results for “Addiction as a Brain Disease” in comparison to when you Google “Addiction as a biopsychosocial disease”

Describe methods for determining if user frustration is caused by poor system design or from the natural frustration associated with learning a new software product.

User Frustration

The quality of the user experience is very important to the success of an application. In the early days of computing, users often experienced long delays since computing power was poor and networks had comparatively slow throughput. Modern systems have largely eliminated these delays due to increased network and computing power, yet users still report a high level of frustration.

Write a four- to five-page paper in which you:

Describe three reasons users are still frustrated with modern applications.
Suggest one method for reducing the frustrations for each of the reasons you supplied in Question 1.
Describe methods for determining if user frustration is caused by poor system design or from the natural frustration associated with learning a new software product.
Suggest at least three methods to reduce the frustrations among the disabled population and how this population can be better served.
Use at least three quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources

Describe the three principles of direct manipulation and give examples as to how they are used in video game controls. Analyze video game-type interfaces and discuss three reasons why video game-type interfaces would not be effective for real-world applications.

Early computer systems relied on command-line interfaces to perform all actions. Today, the majority of systems use direct manipulation rather than a command-line interface. The goal of designing a direct manipulation interface is to make use of the system intuitive to the end user.

One industry that has been extremely successful designing intuitive direct manipulation inputs is the video game industry. Most game players are able to learn controls as they play a game and then apply the same controls to similar games. Rarely do they need to read a user manual.

Write a four- to five-page paper in which you:

Describe the three principles of direct manipulation and give examples as to how they are used in video game controls.
Analyze video game-type interfaces and discuss three reasons why video game-type interfaces would not be effective for real-world applications.
Describe at least three advantages of direct manipulation versus command line interfaces.
Evaluate direct manipulation and describe three problems with it.
Use at least three quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.
