Process and Diagnostics
Process and Diagnostics
Your objective is to determine diagnostic workup based on the differential diagnosis for clients presenting with an episodic illness in the care setting.
Headache is an exceedingly common symptom in primary care and other practice settings, ranking among the top 10 most frequent symptoms that prompt an office visit. Diagnosis and management are based on a careful clinical approach augmented by an understanding of the anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology of the nervous system pathways that mediate the various headache syndromes.
A 35-year-old woman comes to your office to discuss her “bad headaches,” which started after having her first child 2 years ago. The headaches sometimes awaken her from sleep and at times can be disabling and occasionally require her to take Tylenol and rest in a dark room. Sometimes she vomits during an attack. Over the past 6 months, her headaches have become more severe and frequent, prompting her visit today.
What additional questions would you ask to learn more about her headaches?
How do you classify headaches?
How can you determine if this is an old headache or a new headache/s? Is this a chronic or episodic condition?
Can you make a definite diagnosis through an open-ended history followed by focused questions?
How can you use the patient history to distinguish between benign headaches and serious ones that require urgent attention?

You will be attending an upcoming psychological conference on psychology and mass media. While packing for the conference, you are struck by a particular advertisement you see on television. You have seen this same product advertised in magazines, on the radio, on billboards, and on the Internet. This commercial has you thinking more about the interplay between psychology and mass media. You decide to analyze the advertising campaign and use it as an example during the conference.
Using a psychosocial perspective and media research, you will analyze a product campaign to fully demonstrate your understanding of the effects and impacts of propaganda, social influence, persuasion, and attitude changes on society. You will also examine how your own behaviors are influenced by popular media and mass communication.
Emotional disturbance
Throughout history, children with emotional disturbance have been recognized, including the efforts to educate and treat them. As a teacher, you will encounter students who display a range of emotional and/or behavioral problems. The purpose of this assignment is to facilitate an understanding of the ideas and trends that shape our current perspectives.
Create a 1-page infographic or chart that depicts the following information in relation to emotional disturbance:
Federal definition and criteria for eligibility
Types of emotional disturbance
Etiology and prevalence
Learning, social, and communication characteristics of students with emotional disturbance
Laws and litigation related to emotional disturbance
Psychological process of decision
What should be in the paper:
300-word application paper. Your paper should include a real-world example (this example can come from current events, a book you read, something you learned from a different class, a behavior you observed on TV or in real life, a historical event – literally anywhere) and should clearly exemplify the lesson from the module (Human Behavior is Goal Oriented)
Your paper can be a little over 300 words without penalty
You do not need to read additional resources for this assignment
You do need a reference page
You do not need to write the paper in APA or MLA format
If you do decide to reference an outside source, you must cite it to avoid plagiarism. I do not have a preference for how you cite this work, but I do care that you credit others for their ideas and not take credit for other people’s work
What the paper is about:
The course is Social Psychology, and the professor shared multiple slides, each talking about some (in my opinion unrelated) factor which explains the topic of the assignment “Human Behavior is Goal Oriented”, and the reasons why humans do what they do.

Sexual selection and gender role
This week, you have examined theoretical principles of sex differences in aggression: sexual selection and gender role. For this task, you will reflect on what you have learned about sex differences in aggression. Now assume that you have been asked to prepare an article for an online journal that focuses on aggression and behavior, but first you need to complete an interview with a leading expert in sex differences in aggression. Begin by selecting your expert and complete a mock interview that asks and answers the questions below.
1. Explain sexual selection theory and gender role theory. What are the main principles of each theory? What position is taken by each theory on the origins, development, and causal mechanisms of aggression?
2. Give an example of aggressive behavior that may be explained from the perspective of sexual selection and from the perspective of social role theory that is not covered in the reading.
3. Discuss at least one psychological phenomenon that may influence displays of aggressive behavior as explained by the sexual selection theory and the social roles theory.
Anatomical or physiological concept
Identify an anatomical or physiological concept on the muscles or case study which may be related to contemporary issues and technologies in the news.

Then, summarize the anatomical or physiological concept and the news item in an essay that is no longer than 250 words (do a word count in your word processing program). If you go a bit over or under that’s okay. Upload your document into Canvas as a doc, docx or PDF. You must provide a citation for your article. If you do not, you will not receive credit.
