Addictions disorder, Jose is a 47-year-old Hispanic male. He appears well-oriented to time, place, and person, assignment help
APA 4 pages Evaluate common problems faced by those diagnosed with an addictions disorder.Jose is a 47-year-old Hispanic male. He appears well-oriented to time, place, and person. His intelligence appears to be in the normal range and he lists lifelong alcoholism as his therapeutic problem. His court mandated that he complete DUI school and attend counseling for a period of one year. He reports one marriage, to Maria, which ended in divorce 2 years ago. The couple has three teenage children. He reports a history of verbal and physical abuse at the hands of his father. He has witnessed a great deal of abuse by his father upon other members of the family mainly his mother. Alcohol use was prevalent in his home of origin. His father died at age 45 from cirrhosis of the liver. His brother was recently hospitalized for pancreatitis. Jose reported that he argued a lot with his ex-wife and children when he was under the influence, but “never abused them.” He reported that his ex-wife and children do not drink or use drugs. As a consequence of his substance abuse, Jose has experienced problems with the law--two DUIs and an assault charge after a fight in a bar. He is currently on probation and does not have a driver’s license.He worked in manual labor as a bricklayer until two years ago when he sustained a back injury. He can’t work now because of the chronic back injury and is questioning how he will work in the future and support his children. His current workman’s compensation ends in one more year. His drinking started at age 12 and consisted of mostly beer drinking but in strikingly large quantities (as much as 48 beers a day at its peak). At one point, he was spending as much as $500 a week on alcohol, marijuana, and pain medications. He has now been sober for eleven months, after an eight month stay in a residential facility.Case Notes:He explained that his drinking led to the use of other drugs, mainly marijuana and prescription pain medications following his back injury two years ago. He claims that he never let his drinking interfere with his work and that he was a hard worker. He stated that he only drank on the job after hours with his buddies. He stated that his buddies don’t come around anymore since he went away to the residential facility. Maria cited Jose's drinking and the subsequent financial problems as the reasons for the divorce. Since leaving the treatment facility, Jose has been consistently attending the weekend visits with his three children. He reports he has bought into the AA model, but still does not have a sponsor after three months. He attends one AA meeting a week. He has not attended an NA meeting since his release from the residential facility. He says that he has been successful in abstinence, although he occasionally thinks about having a beer. He stated that last weekend, he went to a bar, but claims that he did not drink alcohol. Discuss the biological, psychological, and social factors that need to be considered; how does the biopsychosocial model inform your recommendations for treatment? What sociocultural factors need to be considered and integrated into your counseling approach and conceptualization of Jose’s presenting issues? Provide a DSM-5 diagnosis for Jose and discuss/support your choice of a diagnosis (i.e., differential diagnosis). Considering the counseling theory and treatment approaches discussed thus far in the course, what treatment recommendations and approach(es) would you recommend for Jose and why? Make sure to support your choices with the use of at least 4 current journal articles. Identify and explain what legal and ethical issues you must consider in this case. Refer to relevant standards and principles in the APA Code of Ethics. You are to use at least 4 current (not more than 5 years old) peer-reviewed journal articles in support of your paper. Please have transitions between the introduction, body, and conclusion sections of the paper. The introduction paragraph should include a clear thesis statement.

An Analysis Of The Novel Things Fall Apart.
Now that you have read the content from Chapters 3, 14, and 17 and have also read two short stories focused on character development, compose a Single Character Analysis that will serve as a single from Chinua Achebe’s novel, Thing Fall Apart (TFA).
Your character analysis should include an introductory paragraph where you note background information (title of work, author and character you plan to analyze) and your thesis should include body paragraphs to back-up your thesis. In these body paragraphs, you will provide in-text analysis of the character of your choosing where you formulate topic sentences tied to your thesis as you cite evidence and then provide analysis.
When you think about quoting, or paraphrasing from another, you can think of the process as similar to making a sandwich: note why you are inserting the quote into your writing; and then, following the quote, analyze why the quote works to further your thesis, or main idea. To sandwich a quote properly you must:
Provide a statement introducing the quote (top slice of bread)
Insert your quote (something yummy from the deli)
Explanation of the quote (bottom slice of bread)
Use specific language from the following chapters in the body of your paper:
14 (Character)
17 (Style, Tone, and Language) when crafting your analysis.
3 (Writing Special Kinds of Papers) – Writing a Character Analysis pgs. 51 to 54.
Be sure to address the “type” of character you are analyzing:
round
flat
dynamic
static
As you move on with your analysis note how the elements inform the development of the character you choose to analyze:
formal/informal diction
imagery
figures of speech
Be sure to address and analyze the following as you work to provide a close reading and analysis of the character your are describing:
How the character is motivated
How language and the style/tone work to provide evidence for your reading/analysis of the character.
How formal/informal diction, imagery, and figures of speech inform the make-up of the character

Psyc Assignment
The written report (project) instructions and rubric (from the syllabus) are copied here. (I chose PTSD and Physiology. )Written ReportThe written report should address the biological study of a specific behavioral or mental phenomenon (normal or pathological) covered in your textbook. You should select a behavioral or mental phenomenon (e.g., language, schizophrenia) and then select a biological strategy (e.g., hormones, neurotransmitters, physiology, imaging). As an example, the theme of your report might be imaging approaches to the study of schizophrenia. Your paper should summarize fundamental issues, questions, and controversies and provide a general overview of the topic. It should also elaborate on your understanding of the brain processes that are revealed through imaging research in schizophrenia. To accomplish this, you will have to use research articles to illustrate relevant points. You may use any of a number of resources to find research articles that deal with your topic, including the library and the Internet.This paper is not a "commentary" or "editorial" style paper, but rather a formal research paper using scientific references as the basis for your topic. Personal experience, while sometimes relevant, should not be included for this assignment unless these experiences are linked to course concepts and the brain. Also, you should avoid using personal pronouns such as "I" or "myself" in this type of paper. The requirement for the research articles that you select is that they must have appeared in a peer-reviewed (i.e., refereed) scientific journal. (Please contact your instructor to confirm whether a particular journal is peer-reviewed.) You must use two peer-reviewed scientific articles and they must be recent (i.e., within the most recent three years). You might use the online databases from MEDLINE and PSYCH ABSTRACTS as a source of full-text articles from refereed journals. Newspaper or magazine articles should not be used as your major reference, but can be useful if they lead you to the appropriate research article. You should avoid simply repeating the articles in summary form; rather, use them within the text of your paper to illustrate important points. To ensure that you are on the right track, you should discuss with your instructor the topic and the research articles that you have chosen.Your paper is to be 7 to 10 pages, or about 1,800 words in length. It must be typed, double-spaced, with one-inch margins, and fully referenced in APA format (see http://www.apa.org). Check the course schedule for your due date. Your instructor will determine a late paper policy.The text of your paper should be preceded by an abstract (about 100 words) that summarizes the key points in the paper (i.e., statement of problem, major findings, conclusion). All abstracts will be posted in a conference for all students to review. You should respond to these abstracts to stimulate discussion. Your responses will be evaluated and will constitute part of your grade for online conference participation.The paper will be graded on (1) content and understanding, and (2) how effectively you have communicated your ideas in writing. You will receive a separate grade for each of these elements, weighted equally. Content and understanding are evaluated on the basis of whether the paper (a) identified important issues, questions, and controversies; (b) used recent and relevant research literature to illustrate the issues; and (c) demonstrated an understanding of brain processes and how brain research revealed an understanding of the behavior in question. Effective communication is evaluated on the basis of (a) organization and structure that help communicate the ideas (e.g., headings throughout the text), (b) use of your own language and style (no cutting and pasting), (c) connecting ideas in the text with research papers, and (d) correct usage of APA format in the text and references.Your paper is to be submitted in Microsoft Word format (.doc file) and formatted in APA style (please consult the APA Style Manual, sixth edition, for proper format). Papers not in .doc file format or APA style will not be accepted for a grade; in this case, a grade of "zero" will be assigned for the paper. It is highly advised that you take care to use proper APA style. If you have technical issues related to Word, please notify the instructor immediately so that an appropriate solution can be found.You are highly encouraged to submit a draft of your complete or near complete paper to the Effective Writing Center (EWC) (located on the drop-down menu on the left side of the screen; under "Course Content," click on "Writing Resources") for review and comment, prior to the due date of the paper. This should be submitted well in advance of the due date, in order for the EWC to respond and for you to make the necessary corrections. Once you receive feedback from the EWC, you can copy and paste it into a Word Document, then post it in your assignment folder with your final paper by the due date, for your instructor to view as necessary. The EWC can help address questions regarding format, structure, writing style, and appropriateness of references.

RE: SOCW6361- Discussion 2 - Response to 2 students
Historical Divides and Ethical Obligations Within Social WorkRespond to a colleague with a suggestion of how to address these schisms, both historical situations and current but yet unidentified ones. Does social action need to be separate from social work practice? (Please be detailed in response, use 2 APA references, and ask a question to the student to further the discussion.)Be sure to support your post with specific references to this week's resources. If you are using additional articles, be sure to provide full APA-formatted citations for your references.Response to Joey L. WallaceAn analysis of historical divides (such as the schism between Jane Addams and Mary Richmond) and historical influences on current social work practice with respect to policy advocacy and action.The historical split or schism between Walter Dean and William J. Reid. Walter Dean view on the social work practice is that it should continue to be about activism. Dean believes social work is in danger of abandoning its primary mission to the extent that it succumbs to the trend in American society toward further individualism and privatism and forgetting its major objective of supporting those in need of empowerment and support. According to Dean, “the original purpose of social work, which is to ameliorate poverty and injustice in our increasingly complex, industrialized and urbanized American society” (Thompson, 2012). Dean believed that “instead of retaining the primary role as change-agents in the macro level activism arena, social work will instead take on a merely palliative role within the social environment which it no longer influences (Thompson, 2012). Walter Dean does accept the notion that new social workers should understand scientifically tested and validated practice theories prepare the worker as an adaptive problem solver who can apply method in different ways depending on the situation and the problem to be solved (Thompson, 2012).William J. Reid, believes that since the practices of social work concern human behavior in the community, should come from the public and private sectors. Reid believed that entities as legislation, the courts, community groups, professional organizations, and to some extent clients, was the most important factors that a social worker should consider. Reid’s “ X Y Z approach impacts the clinical vs. social reform debate by limiting practice to interventions that are researchable as such would lead it to focus more on a micro level.Do such schisms exist in contemporary social work?The only split/schism that I have seen in contemporary social work is the issue of religious. “There seems to be two types of social workers, one who bases its practice on humanist principles which are rooted in the positivist scientific tradition and the other whose value is based on religious beliefs” (Loewenberg, 1988).If you think these divides exist, how do they prevent social workers from fulfilling their ethical obligation(s)?Social workers are supposed to support all clients, especially the marginalized but if their faith does not believe in “same-sex” relationships, could they advocate for the rights of these individuals? “Social workers who are people of faith do much to support those in need, and for this we should be deeply grateful, but if their actions and pronouncements violate the profession’s core values, they are not practicing social work as the profession has chosen to define it and that is unethical” (Reamer, 213).Are they important differentiations?I believe that implementing religion in social work or not implementing religious in social work is very important based on the client that we serve. However, religion cannot be the foundation that we rely upon when determining to help support those in need. ReferencesLoewenberg, F., (1988).

P. 21). There was quite a bit going on back then that he was in great support of, such as the Civil Rights Movement, The Free Speech Movement, LGBT pride, Struggles for Social Justice, and The Watts Rebellion, to name a few. He also held a very strong belief in a non-violent protesting. Martin Luther King Jr. wanted equal rights for all! There were a lot of people and organizations against his beliefs and, but he persevered through it all (Jansson, 2018. P. 21) and continued to fight for what he believed in and what he saw for this country. Churches, organizations, society, policy makers, and law enforcement were all resistant to his visions for us. His advocacy strongly affects social work practice, policy advocacy, and action today. Do such schisms exist in contemporary social work?Yes. As our text states, there is confusion and difficulty when it comes to policy advocates and social workers who are working the field and involved in social work practice as it relates to individuals (Jansson, 2018. P. 18) Social workers who work the field don’t feel as though it’s their position or obligation to advocate for policy change. Like myself, the agency I work for, we do advocate for policy change, but we have a chain of command to follow essentially, we speak to our supervisors, and they report to their higher up’s what they feel is important or necessary. This is how we’re taught to do it. Meanwhile, because we work the front lines daily, we see clearly how many polices affect our families, and we should be advocating for more change.I think these schisms affect social workers from fulfilling their ethical obligations because we’re not working all aspects of social work at that point if we’re not advocating for policy and for change.ReferencesHill, K.

APA 4 pages Evaluate common problems faced by those diagnosed with an addictions disorder.Jose is a 47-year-old Hispanic male. He appears well-oriented to time, place, and person. His intelligence appears to be in the normal range and he lists lifelong alcoholism as his therapeutic problem.

Reid, believes that since the practices of social work concern human behavior in the community, should come from the public and private sectors. Reid believed that entities as legislation, the courts, community groups, professional organizations, and to some extent clients, was the most important factors that a social worker should consider. Reid’s “ X Y Z approach impacts the clinical vs. social reform debate by limiting practice to interventions that are researchable as such would lead it to focus more on a micro level.Do such schisms exist in contemporary social work?The only split/schism that I have seen in contemporary social work is the issue of religious. “There seems to be two types of social workers, one who bases its practice on humanist principles which are rooted in the positivist scientific tradition and the other whose value is based on religious beliefs” (Loewenberg, 1988).If you think these divides exist, how do they prevent social workers from fulfilling their ethical obligation(s)?Social workers are supposed to support all clients, especially the marginalized but if their faith does not believe in “same-sex” relationships, could they advocate for the rights of these individuals? “Social workers who are people of faith do much to support those in need, and for this we should be deeply grateful, but if their actions and pronouncements violate the profession’s core values, they are not practicing social work as the profession has chosen to define it and that is unethical” (Reamer, 213).Are they important differentiations?I believe that implementing religion in social work or not implementing religious in social work is very important based on the client that we serve. However, religion cannot be the foundation that we rely upon when determining to help support those in need. ReferencesLoewenberg, F., (1988).

P. 21). There was quite a bit going on back then that he was in great support of, such as the Civil Rights Movement, The Free Speech Movement, LGBT pride, Struggles for Social Justice, and The Watts Rebellion, to name a few. He also held a very strong belief in a non-violent protesting. Martin Luther King Jr. wanted equal rights for all! There were a lot of people and organizations against his beliefs and, but he persevered through it all (Jansson, 2018. P. 21) and continued to fight for what he believed in and what he saw for this country. Churches, organizations, society, policy makers, and law enforcement were all resistant to his visions for us. His advocacy strongly affects social work practice, policy advocacy, and action today. Do such schisms exist in contemporary social work?Yes. As our text states, there is confusion and difficulty when it comes to policy advocates and social workers who are working the field and involved in social work practice as it relates to individuals (Jansson, 2018. P. 18) Social workers who work the field don’t feel as though it’s their position or obligation to advocate for policy change. Like myself, the agency I work for, we do advocate for policy change, but we have a chain of command to follow essentially, we speak to our supervisors, and they report to their higher up’s what they feel is important or necessary. This is how we’re taught to do it. Meanwhile, because we work the front lines daily, we see clearly how many polices affect our families, and we should be advocating for more change.I think these schisms affect social workers from fulfilling their ethical obligations because we’re not working all aspects of social work at that point if we’re not advocating for policy and for change.ReferencesHill, K.
