What problems can you predict? Honesty? Finding participants? What confounding variables might be present? Any limitations?

Depression in Pregnant Women

Cement your research topic – decide which specific phenomenon or behavior you will be presenting your research upon. Bring in three research articles related to the topic that you intend to research.
Finally, based on the articles, answer the following questions:
1) What are the variables you’re interested in studying? How will you plan on measuring these variables? Clearly define the IV and DV, as well as the operational definition for the DV.
2) What scale of measurement do you think your variables will be? Be sure to list each variable and the scale that is most appropriate for it.
3) How do you think you would get your data? Specifically, how would you find participants? What would you have them do?
4) What problems can you predict? Honesty? Finding participants? What confounding
variables might be present? Any limitations?
5) Choose one of your articles for this portion. What is the article you have selected? What are the variables in that study? What were the main findings? What limitations were noted, if any? List the methodological strengths and weaknesses. Also, include the full reference in proper APA format.
After, write a literature Review on the articles.

Evaluate your outline. Look over what you have written. Does it make logical sense? Is each point suitably fleshed out? Is there anything unnecessary?

Write an outline of your research paper

OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER

Who Discovered It

When was it discovered

Typical Age Range for Diagnoses

Causes

Treatments

Etc.

If you choose a Theorist include:

Background

What Theory did they come up with

Major Accomplishments

Etc.

Creating an Outline

1. Identify your topic . Put the topic in your own words to show your individual understanding. Try to stick with a single sentence or phrase, as this will help make sure you stay on topic.

2. Figure out your main points. What are the main ideas you want to convey or need to convince your audience? These points usually answer the questions “why or how is the main topic important and right?” Together with your topic, these points should help you arrive at a working thesis.

3. Arrange your main points in a logical order and list them in the outline. This order can of course be changed later as you evaluate your outline.

4. Create sub-points beneath each major idea. By convention, each time you have a new number or letter, there need to be at least two points. Though perhaps frustrating at first, it is indeed useful because it forces you to think hard about each point; if you can’t create two points, then reconsider including the first in your paper, as it may be extraneous information that may detract from your argument.

5. Evaluate your outline. Look over what you have written. Does it make logical sense? Is each point suitably fleshed out? Is there anything unnecessary?

Describe the terms and language that this client might use when self-identifying and presenting their situation to you in session.

Perceptions of Sexuality Paper

Attraction between intimate partners can be attributed to a wide range of personal qualities. People choose to have partners, or not, at different times in their lives for a variety of reasons. As a counselor, you may be expected to work with clients who have attraction preferences, sexual behaviors, or comfort levels with nontraditional relationships that are unfamiliar to you. It is a counselor’s professional responsibility to know how to set aside the personal judgment we use to make choices in our own lives from the ethical and evidence-informed perspectives that we adopt as clinicians to advocate for our patients’ effective treatment.

Describe the terms and language that this client might use when self-identifying and presenting their situation to you in session.

Write a 350- to 525-word paper in which you analyze your ethical decision-making approach to counseling this client. Include the following in your analysis:

Some of the potential ethical dilemmas to counseling this client
Ethically appropriate decisions you can make to address these concerns
The ethically appropriate decision-making steps you would take during this process

Format your paper according to appropriate course-level APA guidelines.

Explain to your peers how the study from the article you choose from the PubMed Central web page illustrates the value of the method you have chosen.

This week we will look at how we have gotten to know what we do about the brain. Chapter 5 in your textbook discusses a number of research techniques used to study the brain.  For this week’s discussion, choose one of these techniques and visit the PubMed Central  web page to find an original research article where this technique was used.

In your initial post,

1. Describe the technique you selected and why you find it especially compelling as a research method.

2. Explain to your peers how the study from the article you choose from the PubMed Central web page illustrates the value of the method you have chosen.

Examine the neural structures involved in your topic by choosing, naming, and explaining the roles of 3 or more specific and relevant regions of the brain or nervous system.

Prior to beginning work on this assignment visit the PubMed Central web page. You may also consider reviewing the PubMed Central Quick Start Guide and PubMed Tutorials to help you navigate the resource more effectively.

For this assignment, you will start exploring the topic for your final project. Your final project will be a review of either a brain based disease or of a brain process. For example, you could do a review of the neuroscience behind schizophrenia or you could discuss the neuroscience behind vision. You may use your textbook as a guide to help you select a topic and obtain initial sources of information. Be sure to choose topics that are clearly brain-based and not those topics, such as addiction and abuse that have large social components. If you have questions about the suitability of your topic you should contact your instructor.

In your paper,

Examine the neural structures involved in your topic by choosing, naming, and explaining the roles of 3 or more specific and relevant regions of the brain or nervous system. For example, your topic might involve regions such as the frontal lobes, amygdala, hippocampus, thalamus, brain stem, spinal cord, and/or others.
Describe the role each of those structures play in the disorder or process you have chosen. Use at least two paragraphs for each named region and include explanations of their normal function and what happens to those regions in your disorder or process of choice. Avoid using popular sources or non-peer reviewed information.
