Discussion of week 10: The World War II11 unread reply.11 reply.Read the attached to this week 10 (FILES) "Auschwitz Ignored by Alies.PDF" file as well as other available sources and respond to the following questions:Discussion Forum Topic for week 10: Why do you think the United States entered the European theatre of war so late? Why not earlier in the war? Who took the brunt of the war effort against the Nazis in occupied Europe by 1944 (video on home page)? Explain, elaborate, and provide evidence. This is not an opinion seeking question. This is a research-based exploration. Keep this in mind.The format for the forum: The main post: a three to five-paragraphed narrative introducing your idea or reaction, backed with evidence, and a conclusion. A paragraph is understood to be composed of 5-8 sentences with proper citations, references, and style/grammar. The main post is always due on Thursday. The secondary post(s): a free-flowing discussion engaging others' comments, with no length requirement yet academic in nature. Evidence-based material only. If you select to introduce evidence - MLA formatting for citations and bibliography is a must. No speculations and don't forget to cite (in text and at the end of your post). You may start a discussion link through this forum. The secondary post (s) is (are) due by Sunday night, and maybe be posted anytime during the assigned week. They are usually brief and respond or comment to peers in class.You may choose to write in MLA, APA or Chicago for all our writing assignments in this class (discussions and essays). MLA is the most common and known to students. If you don't know other writing styles and formats - just stick to MLA.

Theories of PNIFascination with the body’s overall functioning has compelled researchers and practitioners to theoretically deconstruct and reconstruct the body over many centuries. That fascination endures from interest in how the body’s mental, immunological, hormonal, and psychological systems influence and interact with one another. As a result, it might be difficult to imagine the links among these systems identified in psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) as a new field of study. Based on this underlying theory, contributing theorists from various fields continue to build on the study of PNI to de-compartmentalize the body’s systems in the treatment and prevention of disease.For this Assignment, select one of the following theorists who has a theory that aligns well with your understanding of the mind-body connection’s influence on health:Walter Cannon: Fight or Flight Response; HomeostasisR. Lazarus and Susan Folkman: Ways of Coping George Solomon: Connections Between Emotions, Stress and Immune FunctionRichard Lazarus: Emotional Appraisal of Stress before Biological ResponseNiels Jerne: Immune system tolerance to “self” tissues influencing development of autoimmune diseases, and T and B cell communicationHans Seyle: General Adaptation Syndrome, Stress and Eustress Robert Ader: PsychoneuroimmunologyIvan Pavlov: Conditioned Response of Automatic Biological FunctionsThen, search the Walden Library for at least two research studies that challenge a theory associated with the theorist you selected. Consider how the research addresses that theory and whether it changes your understanding of the mind-body connection’s influence on health. Finally, think about the influence that theory and the research it generated might have on your practice as a health psychology professional.The Assignment (3–5 pages):Submit an APA-formatted essay that includes the following:A description of the theorist and the theory you selected that most agrees with your understanding of the mind-body connection’s influence on healthAn explanation of at least two research studies that challenge the theory you selectedAn explanation of your conclusions based on the studies that critique the research based on that theoryAn explanation of the influence this theory and the research it generated might have on your practice as a health psychology professionalSupport your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.ReadingsAbbas, A. K., Lichtman, A. H. & Pillai, S. (2016).
