Attribution Theory and PerformancePrior to beginning this assignment, be sure to read Chapter 4: Cognition, Learning, and the Environment, and read the article “Extending Attribution Theory: Considering Students’ Perceived Control of the Attribution Process”, the Instructor Guidance, and view the following website The Critical Thinking Community (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (http://www.criticalthinking.org/).For this written assignment, you will demonstrate your understanding of attribution theory. In essence, attribution theory states that individuals tend to make sense of (logically prescribe) situations by associating them to self, others, thoughts, feelings, or actions. This theory suggests that learners should consider why they do what they do, and what or who they are giving credit for both the victories and the failures. Further, this theory suggests that if a person believes that they are not good at something, they may attribute their unsuccessful outcomes to external factors, rather than to themselves. In contrast, if individuals have success, they more often may attribute their successes to internal factors.Using your required resources to support, discuss the following:Describe a time where you feel you have failed and blamed someone else: the teacher, the friend, a loved one. (Failure could be academic, relational, and/or organizational – loss of a job.)Do you believe that you blamed external things to support a more stable version of your own self-image? (In other words, it could not be your mistake). If not, what other reasons might external variables be attributed for our own performance?How do think stability and controllability affect performance attributions, based on our reading this week?Why do you think that self-efficacy plays such a critical role in how we process our learning behaviors?What strategies could be applied to utilize what we know about self-perception and attributions to increase your learning performance in the future? (Minimum of two strategies.)Suggested template.The Attribution Theory paperMust be five to six double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..Must include a separate title page with the following:Title of paperStudent’s nameCourse name and numberInstructor’s nameDate submittedMust use headings and sub-headings.

The conclusion typically has two parts: the summary statement (one or two sentences that restate the thesis in a fresh way to reinforce the essay's main idea) and the clincher (a final thought that creates a lasting impression for the reader).Must use at least one scholarly source from the Ashford University Library, in addition to the required e-book.Must document all sources in APA style, as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.Must include a separate reference page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

Must cite all references, APA style, due 06/20/16   Option #1: Business Analysis Report (Heathrow) This Portfolio Project focuses on assessing and integrating project requirements in relation to user needs and organizational goals. Review the PMI case study about Refurbishing Heathrow Airport Terminal One, with an emphasis on how you would assess the problem and integrate a solution in a different way. Project Management Institute. (2013). Changing the face at the busiest airport in the world through project management. Attached or Retrieved from http://www.pmi.org/business-solutions/~/media/PDF/Case%20Study/Heathrow_Airport_Case_Study_New.ashx   Your task is to develop a 10- to 12-page report that includes the following sections, and outlines your strategies for addressing the problems described in the Heathrow Airport Terminal One project: Introduction (1 Page)Definition of the Business Analysis Process (1 Page)Information Flow Graphic (1 Page)Explanation/Description of Graphic (1 Page)Define the Project (1 Page)Data Collection (1 Page)Strategies/Theory Used to Reach Conclusion (1 Page)Justification/Explanation for Risk Analysis (1 Page)Risk Mitigation Process (1 Page)Conclusion (1 Page)This is a large project that is best approached by splitting it into smaller pieces. It is a good idea to give the case study one more read, with an eye toward things you would do differently. Components of the Project The introduction and conclusion are probably best written last, as the content of these sections depends greatly on what you write in the body of the report. Section II is a good component to write first. In this section, you will explain your definition of the business analysis process. You were presented with at least one other definition in the course textbook and lectures, but this is your opportunity to come up with your own definition and explain how you got there. This is also a good place to bring in references from other scholarly sources. In Section III, you will create a graphic that represents your business analysis process. Remember that if you designed a graphic in Module 1, you are welcome to use that graphic as a starting point, or you can start from scratch. Be sure to use the feedback that you received from your instructor when designing the model for this final report. Section IV is where you explain your thinking and what makes your model unique as compared to others.  In Section V, you will define the problem in the Heathrow Airport Terminal One example. As we know, without identifying what we want to change, it is difficult to measure success; thus, defining the problem is critical. In Section VI, you will describe the data that must be collected to ensure a successful project. You will need to cover not only which data you would like to have, but also how you will collect/retrieve that data. In Section VII, you will describe the strategies and/or theories you used in formulating your solution. This is another section of the report where it would make sense to include academic references. The project is defined, and data collection for important facets of the project are completed and explained. This taps into your ability to defend the validity and reliability of your analytical model. The final two sections are related to risk. Here you will justify the end results of the analytical processes, addressing any significant risks encountered along the way, and provide an explanation of how these risks would be mitigated.  After you’ve written the body of the report, you can develop the introduction, where you will provide an overview of the sections and your findings, followed by a conclusion, where you will recap the process and describe any limitations or difficulties that you encountered.  Include five or six academic or professional references that support assertions made in your paper, in addition to sources that are already part of the course materials.     Attachments:  week_8_heathrow_airport_case_study_new.pdf

Prior to beginning work on this interactive assignment, please review Cases 18, 19, and 20 in Case Studies in Abnormal Psychology (Gorenstein & Comer 2015) and any relevant Instructor Guidance. In practice, clinical and counseling psychologists utilize psychoeducational tools (e.g., bibliotherapy, client handouts, worksheets, etc.) to enhance the client’s knowledge about mental health issues, coping strategies, and resources. For this interactive assignment, you will create a visually interesting client handout based on the case study chosen for the Psychiatric Diagnosis assignment in PSY645 and your Week Six Psychological Treatment Plan in this course. You must attach your client handout document to your initial post in the forum. The client handout will include the following required elements. Education: Explain, with as much visual information as possible, the client’s cognitive or behavioral symptoms based on your selected theoretical orientation. You may choose to create diagrams, figures, or charts to illustrate the relationship between the client’s cognitions, affect, and behavior. Intervention: Create a self-help exercise (e.g., a dysfunctional thought record, meditation, deep breathing, guided imagery, muscle relaxation, thought stopping, etc.) to assist the client in monitoring or reducing maladaptive cognitions, affect, and/or behavior outside of therapeutic sessions. Include an explanation about how the handout could be useful in reducing the client’s symptoms. You may choose to visually represent this exercise with charts, scripts, steps, or other media. Resources: Assess current trends in psychotherapy, and list complete APA reference entries for five sources that would help the client learn more about his or her presenting problem(s), early warning signs of relapse, and managing symptoms. Please include hyperlinks if such exist for your resources.
