As a clinical social worker it is important to understand group typology in order to choose the appropriate group method for a specific population or problem. Each type of group has its own approach and purpose. Two of the more frequently used types of groups are task groups and intervention groups.For this Assignment, review the “Cortez Multimedia” case study, and identify a target behavior or issue that needs to be ameliorated, decreased, or increased. In a 2- to 4-page report, complete the following:Choose either a treatment group or task group as your intervention for Paula Cortez.Identify the model of treatment group (i.e., support, education, teams, or treatment conferences).Using the typologies described in the Toseland & Rivas (2017) piece, describe the characteristics of your group. For instance, if you choose a treatment group that is a support group, what would be the purpose, leadership, focus, bond, composition, and communication?Include the advantages and disadvantages of using this type of group as an intervention.http://mym.cdn.laureate-media.com/2dett4d/Walden/S...

Social workers strive to make informed decisions about the interventions they implement. These decisions should be driven by what the research data say. As a result, social workers have been called to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of the interventions they implement. A common way to evaluate interventions is to use a single-subject design. This involves monitoring an outcome for an intervention implemented for one client. After a social worker works with the client to determine the outcome to be measured, the following steps to the evaluation might look like this:Administer the instrument before the intervention is implementedImplement the interventionAdminister the same instrument, after a specified time period Monitor to determine if there have been any changes in the outcomeIn this Discussion, you use the lens of resiliency theory when reflecting on a case from your fieldwork, and then you consider how to measure the effectiveness of a possible intervention.To prepare, read this article listed in the Learning Resources:Smith-Osborne, A., & Whitehill Bolton K.

Describe the case in 2 sentences. Describe the presenting problem in one concise sentence.Describe an intervention you would implement to promote resiliency. Identify an instrument from the Smith-Osborne and Whitehill Bolton’s article that would be appropriate when employing a single-subject design to evaluate how effective the intervention is in increasing the client’s level of resiliency.Explain why you selected the instrument.In other words, why would the instrument be appropriate? (Consider the age of the client and for whom the instrument was designed, how feasible it would be to administer the instrument such as cost, time to administer it, etc.)YOU MUST CITE THIS REFERENCE:Smith-Osborne, A., & Whitehill Bolton K.
