Week
Three Assignment
Select a stress disorder, anxiety disorder, conduct disorder, or
ADHD from the Film List.
Use the Research Analysis to complete this assignment.
Prepare a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper that
discusses research-based interventions to treat psychopathology.
Reviewand differentiate the characteristics of the
selected disorder and discuss the research about intervention strategies for
the disorder by completing the following:
- Evaluate
three peer-reviewed research studies using the Research Analysis. Please
see the posted Announcement concerning how to write about research
studies. - Conceptualize
the disorder using the biopsychosocial or diathesis-stress models. In
order to receive full credit for this objective you will need to
demonstrate how each element of the model causes or exacerbates the
disorder you have selected. For example, how do the elements of biology,
psychology, and sociology interact to create and/or make the disorder
worse? Addressing each of these in regards to how they independently
create and or make the disorder worse does not fulfill this requirement.
The diathesis-stress model is, in general, easier to explain for most
disorders you will write about for this course. - Discuss the
treatments or interventions that have been shown to be the most effective
for your selected disorder. Why?
Cite at least three peer-reviewed sources
for the first objective and one each for the second and third objectives. These
five peer-reviewed sources should not be repeated in the paper.
Format your paper consistent with APA
guidelines.
