Eating Disorders in Adolescence

Eating Disorders in Adolescence

Imagine a teen girl posting a selfie on social media. She likes the picture because she is smiling in it and the sun is shining on her nicely. Later that day, she reads the comments, which are mostly positive, but one person has posted a negative comment about her being “fat.” How might that affect an adolescent who is already feeling vulnerable?

Similar scenes of “body shaming” play out in the lives of adolescents trying to navigate cultural understandings of beauty, pressure from peers to fit in, and constant images of “perfect bodies” shown on TV and in movies. Social media, because it is so ubiquitous, can be particularly hurtful. These pressures can combine with biological and psychological factors to promote an adolescent’s negative body image, purging and fasting behavior, or even an eating disorder.

For this Assignment, you examine the occurrence of eating disorders and consider approaches to address them in adolescents.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Learning Resources on biological development in adolescence and on body image and body shaming. Consider connections between biological development, adolescence, body shaming, and eating disorders.
  • Search for pro-anorexia websites and use one for this Assignment.
  • Review theoretical models, considering one that may be appropriate to use with adolescents experiencing eating disorders.

Submit a 2- to 4-page paper on eating disorders in adolescence. In your paper:

  • Describe the role of peer relationships on the development of feeding and eating disorders in adolescence.
  • Describe the role of social media and body shaming on feeding and eating disorders in adolescence.
  • Identify one website addressing the phenomenon of pro anorexia and describe the content (provide the webpage URL). Why might adolescents be drawn to this perspective?
  • Describe the biological, psychological, and social effects of feeding and eating disorders in adolescence.
  • Identify and explain a theoretical model that can be used when working with adolescents experiencing feeding and eating disorders.
  • Describe two approaches that you might find useful for addressing feeding and eating disorders among adolescents.

Please use the Learning Resources to support your analysis. Make sure to provide APA citations and a reference list.

Requirements: 2-3 pages

make sure all bullets are discussed in the paper.

I have 2 articles that I have attached that may be helpful.

Final Proposal Project:

Please find the rubric attached.

Each student will be required to complete the term project, which is a research proposal written in an APA Style. The project should have at least 8-10 pages of substance not counting the cover and reference page. Please include a Cover Page, an abstract and a list of references. The research proposal you write in this course will NOT be sent to the IRB for approval. This is because you will not be conducting actual research for the purpose of this class. You will, however, gain an insight as to how to write a research proposal.

Each student will be required to complete a research proposal, as the term project. The research proposal will include the following:

  • Title page
  • Abstract (100-120 words)
  • Introduction
  • Problem Statement
  • Purpose Statement
  • Hypothesis
  • Literature Review and Definitions included in the research
  • Research methods/design
  • References
  • Appendices – as needed (annotated bibliography, example consent form, example survey if used)

The research proposal (Term Project) must be in a Word Document (.doc) uploaded to the student’s folder through the assignment section. Students will be required to use at least five scholarly references in their work.

Students are required to follow APA Style guidelines.

Please make sure that you are using the course-writing rubric to use as a checklist so that you write a solid paper.

Students must use a topic, which was approved by the instructor or their research proposal.

Do not include quotes in your work. The student needs to display good critical thinking skills and not a string of quotes written by published authors. Your proposal is what is needed for a successful research project to be conducted in the future.

Do not wait to the last minute to research, write, format, and edit. Proper time management is required to turn in a quality research proposal that highlights your understanding of how to conduct scholarly research.

I have an annotated bibliography that I have completed so far and the rubric for the assignment. I also have picked a topic already

 

Research Proposal Topic: Juvenile Justice: The Risk Factors of Juvenile Delinquency Within the Pacific Islanders Ethnicity and Rehabilitation

Also, it is a research proposal and not a research pape
