Assignment 3: Civil Litigation and Personal Injury Assessment

A forensic assessment may serve a number of purposes in both criminal and civil contexts. In the context of civil litigation, a forensic mental health professional may be called to provide an assessment in a personal injury  case. For example, the professional may be asked to identify whether a  traumatic disability or syndrome exists and, if so, to determine the  severity and impact on an individual’s functional abilities. Personal injury litigation expands over several areas.

Using resources from the professional literature, research two types of reports written for civil litigation  purposes. The literature may include the Argosy University online  library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles,  and scholarly websites created by professional organizations, agencies,  or institutions.

Based on your research, create a 3- to 4-page paper in a Microsoft Word document responding to the following:

  • Discuss at least two ways in which a forensic assessment may be required in each type of civil forensic case.
  • Identify the specific psycholegal issues to be addressed in each type of evaluation.
  • Discuss the role of the independent medical examiner or independent forensic psychologist.
  • Discuss several key elements that the forensic mental health professional would want to include in the report.
  • Identify the legal entity or stakeholder (e.g., defense attorney) who might request each type of assessment  report and explain the potential reasons for the requests. In other  words, what might the forensic professional add to an understanding of  the case beyond what is generally known by laypeople?
  • Describe the assessments that are utilized to write the reports.
  • Identify the limitations of the reports.

Follow directions carefully.

In  this class you will complete a Research Study Proposal to investigate a  social-psychological issue to allow you to put into practice what you  have learned throughout this course by designing a hypothetical research  study proposal.

The  Research Study Proposal will be divided into two assignments: Research  Study Proposal Part I and l Research Study Proposal Part II.

The  topic of your research study should be on a social-psychological issue.  Social Psychology focuses on the impact of social environments on  individuals or groups.

Two examples of social psychology focused studies are:

  • A study that researches the impact of public awareness ad campaigns on public attitudes toward the severely mental ill
  • A  study comparing types school administrator response to reports of  bullying and victims’ willingness to report instances of bullying to  their parents.

The Research Study Proposal Part I must include the four components below. You will use these components as subheadings for four sections in your paper

1. Proposed Topic: Describe the study’s topic and focus (1 page minimum)

2. Hypothesis (can be in a form of question or stating the Ho and Ha)

3.  Participants. Describe participant demographics (race, gender, age,  religion, SES, area of the country in which they live, etc.), the  process for selecting/recruiting them, and the rational for selecting  them (1/2 page minimum)

4. Sampling Method: Discuss the proposed sampling method and the rational for selecting it (1 page minimum)

Your paper must also:

  • Be  a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 full pages, size 12 font, Times New  Roman, double spaced with 1 inch margins, NOT including the Title and  References pages.
  • Be in APA format, including a title page and reference page.

/in /by

As stated by Hanna Levenson, “The goal of TLDP is not the reduction of symptoms as such, (for instance, anxiety, depression), although improvements in symptoms are expected to occur; rather, the focus is on changing ingrained patterns of interpersonal relatedness or personality style.”

The goal in this therapeutic approach is very valuable, and may be applied to a diverse group of clients. Rather than attacking the symptoms, modifications are made in the person which ultimately may resolve these symptoms over time. This method may be affective in individuals suffering from trauma and showing symptoms such as anxiety, stress, and aggression. However, This method seems non-specific and could be used for numerous clients. Although symptoms can be directly approached through medical means, changing ingrained patterns of the individuals lifestyle can congruently improve the individual and symptoms they are suffering from. Helping the client change there pattern of thinking towards the trauma they have faced can directly impact the symptoms the suffer from. This method of therapy can almost be viewed as “killing two birds with one stone”, improving patterns of interpersonal relatedness while resolving struggling symptoms.

 

2- 

I approached this question from two different paths of thought. My first process concerned what I felt was the relative value of Time-limited dynamic psychotherapy (TLDP), and when I thought it would be a best practice. As with psychotherapy, I struggle a little with the concept of a treatment that does not specifically address symptoms. The being said, the corollary of this quality may be that TLDP is well geared for addressing more broad and general social support requirements. TLDP focuses on social relationships and interactions. So it immediately leapt to mind that it could be of particular benefit for individuals living with autism spectrum disorder. Here it could provide a positive vehicle for modeling and practicing appropriate social interaction and responses. Any client suffering from troubles in a romantic relationship might benefit from it as well, in tandem to whatever treatment might be appropriate for other challenges. I also think TLDP may be more effective with younger clients. The older a person is, the more “set in their ways” they are likely to be and, by extension, resistant to this treatment. But a child or adolescent is still in the process of developing social and peer interaction skills. This may provide an opportunity to address a maladaptive habit before it fully develops.

My second path of thought was about specific diagnosis, and how I thought TLDP might interact with various symptoms and criterion. Borderline personality disorder (BPD) stuck in my head for a while, because TLDP is specifically concerned with maintaining social relationships, a specific difficulty for individuals with BPD. I think the brevity of TLDP would not lend itself as an isolated path of treatment in this scenario, but could be an excellent component in a larger overall treatment. TLDP could be highly beneficial for individuals with bipolar disorder. Helping a client manage peer interactions may be beneficial in controlling the magnitude and consequences of mood swings. I also think clients presenting with an eating disorder could potentially benefit from TLDP. While not specifically addressing any symptoms regarding food, I think eating disorders are frequently accompanied by deep underlying questions about control, anxiety, and self image. I think presenting positive routes of social interaction could relieve some of these internal tensions, and could lend themselves toward a secondary effect of alleviating some symptoms. I would also be interested to see if there is any research on how beneficial TLDP is for individuals with oppositional defiance disorder. I do not think this would be a treatment route I would specifically choose for such a client, but I think there could be potential benefits.

Your team is tasked to write a journal comprised of letters to your younger selves, or a loved one.  Your journal should include an introduction and conclusion that ties your letters together.  An APA formatted reference page must also be included. Each letter should be approximately 200-250 words long.

Each person should choose one of the factors, or one aspect of one of the factors, that are discussed in the video, linked below, that seems to contribute to longevity.  See examples below (you are not limited to these examples, your topic just has to be something that the video addressed).

 

  • How society is organized, specifically how the Sardinians treat older people, the “grandmother effect”
  • Okinawains – plant based diet, not what they eat though as much as how they eat.  Also, social constructs.  Finally, “the reason one wakes up in the morning”
  • Seventh Day Adventists – “Sanctuary Time”

 

Research that factor in more depth (each person must use at least one peer reviewed resource, and each person must use a different article or resource).

 

Each person should then write a letter to a young adult (someone in their late teens to mid 20’s), your young self, or a loved one.

 

I would like the primary focus to be on providing practical and specific advice on how your letter recipeint can incorporate the longevity factor into their life.  I want very little commentary or summarizing of the video iteself (I have seen it numerous times).

I would like the secondary focus to be on sharing the additional research you did on your chosen factor (why or how does this behavior, attitude, etc. contribute to longevity?).

 

Share whatever you think is most pertinent but the crux of your discussion should be sharing information on how the young person can meaningfully, practially, concretely incorporate the chosen factor into their own lives in the service of creating if not longevity at least better health (emotional, physical, social, etc.), and how or why this factor is beneficial.

Many marketing efforts perpetuate the gender stereotypes that are steeped in our culture. Two examples at attempts to maintain these stereotypes through advertising are the Bic Critsal For Her and the Easy Bake Oven. These two conceivably innocuous items triggered a flood of articles, petitions, and videos, denouncing their perceived underlying messages.

The first controversy that erupted surrounded the Bic Cristal For Her pen. This pen was created and packaged specifically for women to use. Several groups lashed out at Bic, calling their attempt to target women with “lady pens” sexist and demeaning. Its detractors felt the campaign was degrading and fed into stereotypes by highlighting the thin design and the use of pastel colors. The negative press was overwhelming, although the pens have remained on the market.

Consumers also targeted those responsible for marketing the Easy Bake Oven by sending a petition asking its parent company Hasbro to make the ovens in colors other than pink and purple. Thousands of individuals signed the petition asking for alternative oven colors after a teenage girl from New Jersey was angered that her younger brother would have no other option but to use an oven in the colors that are considered stereotypically female. It was argued that the colors supported the stereotypical view that only young girls would want to bake. The signers of the petition felt that young boys who might want to use the toy would be more likely to practice their baking skills if the color of the oven was gender neutral.

Consider these two stories and think about your own reactions to the responses to the advertising and merchandising of these items.

To prepare: the assigned resources and reflect on your experience with gender.

Submit a 2- to 4- page paper, in which you:

  • Identify specific messages about gender presented in the mass media.
  • Discuss messages about gender you have received from your family or cultural group.
  • Analyze how these messages have influenced your experience with gender.
  • Explain how you might address issues related to sexism in the mass media and diverse cultural beliefs about gender and gender roles in your social work practice.

The following assignment is an exercise designed to help you write your Final Paper. In this exercise, you will do the following:

/in /by

Overview
The following assignment is an exercise designed to help you write your Final Paper. In this exercise, you will do the following:

  • Identify a topic of interest from the list, and narrow it down to a particular, concrete ethical problem or question.
  • Provide an introduction in which you briefly explain the topic and the particular question on which you will focus your paper.
  • Explain three ethically significant issues pertaining to this question that would need to be considered when addressing it.
  • Use the Thesis Generator in the Ashford Writing Center to construct a thesis statement that articulates your position on the topic as you have defined it. (https://awc.ashford.edu/writing-tools-thesis-generator.html)

Instructions
The exercise must be at least 400 words in length (excluding title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Be sure to including a title page and reference page as necessary. Your exercise must be organized to address each of the five parts below. Number each part accordingly.

  1. Part One: Thesis Statement
    Use the Thesis Generator in the Ashford Writing Center to construct a thesis statement that articulates your position on the question as you have defined it. This will likely be the last thing you do in this exercise, but your thesis should be placed at the top of the first page after the title page.

    Your thesis should clearly state your position and provide a concise statement of the primary reason(s) drawn from the three issues you raise in Part Two. For example, having identified three important issues that need to be considered, you may find that two of them support your view, and while one may present a challenge to it, that challenge can be overcome.

  2. Part Two: Provide a Brief Introduction to the Topic
    Your introduction must make clear to the reader exactly what ethical issue or question you are addressing within this topic, and what you consider to be the boundaries of the question.

    For example, a paper on criminal punishment might consider whether capital punishment should be used as punishment for certain types of crime, or it might consider the broader question of whether the criminal justice system should favor retribution over rehabilitation. If you were writing on this topic, you would need to specify which of these (or some other) specific question you intend to discuss. (Note: You may not write on criminal punishment, this is just an example.) You should aim to focus your question as narrowly as possible.

    The final sentence of this paragraph should provide a brief summary of the three ethically significant issues pertaining to this question that you intend to address.

  3. Parts Three, Four, and Five: Explain Three Ethically Significant Issues Pertaining to This Question
    An “ethically significant issue” is a feature of the topic and circumstances that must be taken into account when reasoning about the question. For example, if you were writing on criminal punishment and focusing on the question of whether drug users should be imprisoned, ethically significant issues might include the monetary costs, the social costs, the impact on the person, the effect on the drug trade, and so on. And each of these, in turn, would have sub-issues, negative and positive sides, etc. Your task is to be as specific as you can in explaining the ethically significant issue.

    The first sentence of each paragraph must be a topic sentence that clearly states what issue you will be considering. The remainder of the paragraph should address the relevance and import of the ethically significant feature of the situation. Each paragraph should be focused on a distinct issue.
