Florida State University Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Essay
Because we're focused on the DSM-5 process itself in this module, you may cite any of the assigned readings, including the DSM-5 and DSM-5 handbooks.1. For most disorders, the DSM-5 describes prevalence according to gender. There are frequently differences which may even give diagnostic clues according to the DSM. Caplan et al. argue that gender bias is a major factor that leads to increased diagnosis of depression in women. Biological psychiatrists will generally acknowledge that gender bias does exist but that biology also holds an important role, for instance citing research showing brain differences between males and females during gestation before socialization has taken place. There are also differences in disease prevalence in physical medical disease; women are more likely to be diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, men are more likely to have heart attacks. In mental health, men are more likely to be diagnosed with Schizophrenia or Anti-Social Personality Disorder.Examine the DSM-5 category of Major Depressive Disorder: (SCREENSHOT OF PICTURE ATTACHED)Do you see clear gender bias embedded into the category by the creators of the disorder? In practice, what should a practicing social worker do to avoid making gender-biased diagnostic decisions?(((((ASSIGNMENT----->)))) 2. It should be clear by now that the DSM-5 is a very flawed human endeavor. However, DSM-5 included the Cultural Formulation Interview, which attempts to capture the cultural influences on the manifestation of psychopathology, as well as other important issues relevant to ongoing treatment. Please examine the CFI in your DSM-5. Again, consider the diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder as posted above. Also consider your own life experiences (including but not limited to clinical experience) regarding the role of culture in depression, human distress, and 'happiness'. Assuming the questions on the CFI are asked to a client suspected of manifesting Major Depressive Disorder, how might this affect the overall DSM diagnosis? What important factors does the DSM-5 diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder miss that might be captured by the CFI? Does the CFI solve the problem presented by using DSM-5 criteria for depression created largely by relatively wealthy white male psychiatrists?MUST BE COMPLETED IN APA FORMAT AND AT LEAST A 1 PAGE AND 1/2

The Framers of the Constitution gave less written substance to the office, just a few paragraphs in the Constitution than Congress. Much of what we experience of the Presidency is a product of the 20th Century. As America developed into first a world power, and then a superpower, the office became more important.The Presidency is much more complex than when John Adams grazed cows on the White House lawn in 1800. The President has public expectations to deal with. He/she has complex roles to fulfill. Finally, the President brings their personality, life experiences, and beliefs to the office. The public expects the chief executive to be a combination Clint Eastwood/Mother Teresa all at the same time. They expect a leader to be tough, deliberate, and omnipotent- George Bush Sr.- "this will not stand". At the same time they expect a president to be kind, caring, and considerate- Bill Clinton- "I feel your pain".Each leader has five major roles to execute: chief of state, chief executive, chief legislator, chief diplomat, and chief bureaucrat. The chief of state role is one of ceremonial importance. The president acts as a symbol of the state. There is no real political power exercised here. Formal dinners, ship launchings, and the giving of awards are some of the functions within the role. Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom or Emperor Akahito of Japan are examples of chiefs of state in other countries.The chief executive role is one of real political power. The president in this situation is a political, partisan, and military leader. The chief executive makes political decisions and formulates public policy. In a nutshell, the chief executive is the head of government. Examples of chief executives elsewhere include prime ministers David Cameron in the UK and Naito Kan in Japan.The chief legislator role involves the president formulating, writing, and pressuring Congress for specific legislation such as the national budget or educational policy. In the United States, the presidency proposes most major legislation.The chief diplomat is the fourth role of the American president. This role involves the creation and administration of foreign policy. The Constitution assigns this responsibility to the ExecutiveBranch. The final role of the president is chief bureaucrat. In this role, he/she is the titular head of the bureaucracy. He/she is the sole elected administrator, responsible to the electorate.James David Barber, in his 1992 work, Presidential Personality: Predicting Performance, theorized that chief executives are affected by their personalities and life experiences. Barber created a matrix with two axes, active/passive and positive/negative.Active Positive Passive-Positiveloves job easy goingLoves a challenge affableOne the go personality likes people----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Active Negative Passive Negativecompulsively active motivated by duty life is a struggle burdened by responsibilityPerceives enemies everywhere low self esteemThe active positive president is active, loves challenges, and loves their job. Theodore Roosevelt, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton are examples of the active positive personality. Roosevelt, despite being legally blind and asthmatic, became the youngest president ever to take office. He saw his office as "a bully pulpit". One can refer to the active positive personality as the president that "takes a licking and keeps on ticking". The passive positive president loves people and likes to be admired. To the passive positive personality, every new person is like a friend they haven't met before. Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan are examples of these personalities. Both were likable, warm individuals in the presidency.The active negative personality is out to prove themselves. They perceive threats everywhere. Examples of this personality include Richard Nixon and Lyndon Johnson. Both were of humble circumstances and were out to prove their ability. For both, the price was very high. Nixon lost office because of the Watergate break-in and Johnson because of the Vietnam conflict. Both were popular but lost all by making poor decisions in their greatest leadership tests.The last personality, passive positive, is probably the most maligned. These personalities see their job as a duty to be endured. Much like the soldier who knows doing his/her duty is going to be hell, but it's their job to do. Calvin Coolidge and Dwight Eisenhower are two examples. Coolidge remained in the presidency, struggling with deep depression, after the death of his young son. Eisenhower, remained in the White House after suffering from two major heart attacks.The Vice-Presidency has risen in importance in the 20th and 21st centuries. It is no longer the political morgue it once was. The Vice-President's formal role is limited to presiding over the Senate and casting only a tie-breaking vote. Most vice-presidents such as John Adams and John Nance Garner saw the office as a dead end. Garner referred to the office "not being worth a pitcher of warm piss". Adams noted the office as "the most insignificant office ever devised".The office has become more important in its informal role. Presidents have come to recognize the assistance their vice-president can offer as not only a stand in for chief of state functions, but also as an adviser and helpmate. Vice-presidents no longer are "out of the loop" as in Harry Truman's brief tenure. He recognized, as well as future presidents, the importance of involving their Veep's. Nearly every twenty years since 1840, a vice-president has filled the presidency on the death of executive. In the 20th century, Theodore Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson, and Gerald Ford became president on death or resignation. Only Ford was not re-elected in his own right.The Constitution also recognizes the issue of presidential disability since the 1960's. Vice-presidents can temporarily assume the highest office on illness or brief periods such as a presidential medical procedure. Dick Cheney assumed the Presidency during a presidential medical exam. His medical fitness was also an issue during and after the disputed 2000 election.The First Lady, although unelected, also plays an important role in the Executive. Her role is informal and is primarily structure around what she chooses. Lowi frequently refers to the position as "Queen of America". Former First Lady Hillary Clinton is the exception to the rule in choosing her role. She was far more political than her predecessors, eventually achieving election to the U.S. Senate from New York. Most First Ladies have found more traditional, non-political interpretations. Most have assisted the President in meeting the ceremonial obligations of "chief of state". Former First Lady Laura Bush has adopted literacy, much like her mother-in-law Barbara Bush. Rosalynn Carter was Jimmy Carter's closest adviser and confidant, frequently attending meetings in a low-key role.The position, like the Vice-Presidency is constantly evolving. Each First Lady will find her way in the position as society and expectations change. The election of a married female chief excutive will put "a new spin" on the role just as Britons experienced with the election of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.The Cabinet consists of 15 various department heads for Defense, Agriculture, State, and so on. These department heads, called secretaries, are chosen by the president and confirmed by the Senate. Most are selected for political reasons as well as ability. They are less important than the White House staff and the presidential inner circle, frequently portrayed in the media in programs like "West Wing". These staffers serve at the President's pleasure and aren't subject to Senate approval.Assignments: Forum: Presidential powerShould the President respect existing law, as in the legalistic theory of the presidency, or forge ahead in making policy, where no laws exist, as in the stewardship theory? Could a president violate the spirit of the Constitution and the law by doing so?

SOCW6103: Discussion Response to 2 Students (Wk3)
Respond to the postings of at least two of your colleagues and respond in one of the following ways: (Be detailed in response, Use two peer-reviewed references and use subheading in response) Share an insight from having read your colleague's posting on the benefits of addiction treatment teams.Share an insight from having read your colleague's posting on the benefits and challenges of addiction treatment teams from the perspective of the client.Expand on your colleague's posting on the strengths and limitations of using a team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of both the counselor and the client. Response to Kristie Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional It is common for individuals with addiction issues to also suffer from other mental health diagnoses (Lambert, 2002). Approaching these dual-diagnosis clients is complex and requires a multifaceted treatment for the best outcome. Utilizing a variety of disciplines comprehensively to treats the individual’s holistic needs through greater access to care and services (Lambert, 2002). Another strength of using the team approach is it gives an opportunity for multisystemic interventions. Combined treatment modalities such as pharmaceuticals and talk therapy are evidence to have the most success in comorbidity substance addicted clients (Martin, Weinberg, & Bealer, 2006). Two limitations of using a team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional An obstacle of multiple disciplinary approaches is lack of coordination. The client is shuffled back and forth among professional. This practice results in “being poorly informed about what is happening in the other camp and may offer the patient conflicting advice” (Martin et al., 2006, p. 44). Another limitation of a team approach from the professional’s point of view is they may not agree with theoretical approaches or lack education of other disciplines (Lambert, 2002). For instance, a physician may not be encouraging of total abstinence when the counseling programs view this to be the ultimate goal. Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client The client has greater access to care and a variety of services using the team approach. Seeking help can be a difficult decision. Unification of various professions increases accurate diagnoses and that the client will receive necessary treatments (Lambert, 2002). Thus, the team approach coordinates care for integrated services. Another strength of this intervention is that it provides the client with a more extensive support system. Acknowledgment that the client is not in the addiction process alone encourages and is empowering leading to treatment success (Lambert, 2002). Two limitations of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client Team involvement in addiction treatment can diminish autonomy. The client can feel like they have no power in the decision-making process. According to Martin et al. (2006), limiting a client’s self-determination prompts strong reactions such as stopping therapy and relapse. Another limitation of a team approach to addiction is the client has to repeatedly share their experience with many different people causing one to relive trauma (Cappuzzi & Stauffer, 2016). The predetermined program curriculum is not individualized and potentially harms, causes guilt and shame, and a sense of failure (Kellogg & Tetarsky, 2012). Some clients may not be social, and a team approach exacerbates the need to self-medicate causing further marginalization and alienating them from some services (Kellogg & Tetarsky, 2012). References Capuzzi, D., & Stauffer, M. D. (2016). Foundations of addictions counseling (3rd ed.). New York, NY: Pearson Education, Inc. Kellogg, S.H., & Tetarsky, A. (2012). Re-envisioning addition treatment: a six point plan. Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly, 30(1), 109-128. doi:10.1080/0734734.2012.635544. Lambert, M. T. (2002).

Response to Taneka Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional: From the team approach to addiction treatment, Joey father died in a car accident when he was ten years old. Joey blames himself for the accident because he inform his father how important it was from him to come to his party. In order to cope with his pain, Joey began using drugs. Joey began seeking treatment from his addiction counselor. The addiction counselor monitor his mental and emotional progress as well as develop coping mechanisms. The addiction counselor develop healthier skills to help him cope with his pain besides choosing drugs and alcohol. Joey also sees Dr. Roesan, and the doctor assess his health and monitor his detox treatment and communicate with Joey on his progress and as well as communicate with other treatment team members to track his progress. Two limitations of using a team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional: According Martin P. Weinberg to "psychiatrists and mental health counselors who evolved in a professional, academic environment had little success in treating addicted patients and were uncomfortable working with them because clients lie o relapse" (Weinberg, 2006). Mental Health and Addictions counselors are trained separately because both fields have little or no experience with each other field. Psychiatrists and other mental health professionals often think that self groups helps patients avoid receiving help. Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client: Once the client is able to build trust with an addiction counselor, the client is subjective to begin treatment. While in treatment, the client is able to establish and relationship as well as rapport. The client will engage in treatment and begin to use coping mechanisms to resolve their emotional pain without relapsing. Two limitations of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client: Clients may feel uncomfortable with sharing their personal experiences amongst others which will cause them to be alienated in the group. Learning how to trust others can be difficult especially when their traumatic experience involves broken trust. Clients are scared to open up to strangers about their feelings and emotions due to other clients being judgmental. Martin, P., Weinberg, B. A., & Bealer, B. K. (2006).

Response to Kristie Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional It is common for individuals with addiction issues to also suffer from other mental health diagnoses (Lambert, 2002). Approaching these dual-diagnosis clients is complex and requires a multifaceted treatment for the best outcome. Utilizing a variety of disciplines comprehensively to treats the individual’s holistic needs through greater access to care and services (Lambert, 2002). Another strength of using the team approach is it gives an opportunity for multisystemic interventions. Combined treatment modalities such as pharmaceuticals and talk therapy are evidence to have the most success in comorbidity substance addicted clients (Martin, Weinberg, & Bealer, 2006). Two limitations of using a team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional An obstacle of multiple disciplinary approaches is lack of coordination. The client is shuffled back and forth among professional. This practice results in “being poorly informed about what is happening in the other camp and may offer the patient conflicting advice” (Martin et al., 2006, p. 44). Another limitation of a team approach from the professional’s point of view is they may not agree with theoretical approaches or lack education of other disciplines (Lambert, 2002). For instance, a physician may not be encouraging of total abstinence when the counseling programs view this to be the ultimate goal. Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client The client has greater access to care and a variety of services using the team approach. Seeking help can be a difficult decision. Unification of various professions increases accurate diagnoses and that the client will receive necessary treatments (Lambert, 2002). Thus, the team approach coordinates care for integrated services. Another strength of this intervention is that it provides the client with a more extensive support system. Acknowledgment that the client is not in the addiction process alone encourages and is empowering leading to treatment success (Lambert, 2002). Two limitations of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client Team involvement in addiction treatment can diminish autonomy. The client can feel like they have no power in the decision-making process. According to Martin et al. (2006), limiting a client’s self-determination prompts strong reactions such as stopping therapy and relapse. Another limitation of a team approach to addiction is the client has to repeatedly share their experience with many different people causing one to relive trauma (Cappuzzi & Stauffer, 2016). The predetermined program curriculum is not individualized and potentially harms, causes guilt and shame, and a sense of failure (Kellogg & Tetarsky, 2012). Some clients may not be social, and a team approach exacerbates the need to self-medicate causing further marginalization and alienating them from some services (Kellogg & Tetarsky, 2012).

Response to Taneka Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional: From the team approach to addiction treatment, Joey father died in a car accident when he was ten years old. Joey blames himself for the accident because he inform his father how important it was from him to come to his party. In order to cope with his pain, Joey began using drugs. Joey began seeking treatment from his addiction counselor. The addiction counselor monitor his mental and emotional progress as well as develop coping mechanisms. The addiction counselor develop healthier skills to help him cope with his pain besides choosing drugs and alcohol. Joey also sees Dr. Roesan, and the doctor assess his health and monitor his detox treatment and communicate with Joey on his progress and as well as communicate with other treatment team members to track his progress. Two limitations of using a team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of an addiction professional: According Martin P. Weinberg to "psychiatrists and mental health counselors who evolved in a professional, academic environment had little success in treating addicted patients and were uncomfortable working with them because clients lie o relapse" (Weinberg, 2006). Mental Health and Addictions counselors are trained separately because both fields have little or no experience with each other field. Psychiatrists and other mental health professionals often think that self groups helps patients avoid receiving help. Two strengths of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client: Once the client is able to build trust with an addiction counselor, the client is subjective to begin treatment. While in treatment, the client is able to establish and relationship as well as rapport. The client will engage in treatment and begin to use coping mechanisms to resolve their emotional pain without relapsing. Two limitations of using the team approach to addiction treatment from the perspective of a client: Clients may feel uncomfortable with sharing their personal experiences amongst others which will cause them to be alienated in the group. Learning how to trust others can be difficult especially when their traumatic experience involves broken trust. Clients are scared to open up to strangers about their feelings and emotions due to other clients being judgmental. Martin, P., Weinberg, B. A., & Bealer, B. K. (2006).
