For each of the following kinds of Laws, pick at least one of the four grounds for justification: legal moralism, the harm principle, legal paternalism, and the offense principle. And construct an argument designed to justify the law. You may not agree either with the law or with the argument; the exercise is to see if you can connect the law to the (allegedly} justifying principle. For many laws, more than one kind of justification is possible, so there can be more than one good answer for many of these. 1. Laws against shoplifting 2. Laws against adultery 3. Laws against suicide 4. Laws against forgery 5. Laws against spitting on the sidewalk 6. Laws against driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol 7.

So far, we have discussed the ways that scientific findings can complement Scripture, check our interpretation of Scripture, and provide reliable frameworks for understanding much of the world around us. However, some argue that science has limitations, particularly in the areas of ethics and morality. For example, science can tell us how atom bombs are made, but it cannot tell us whether atom bombs be made. Meanwhile, there are others who argue that science answer moral questions. For example, neuroscientist and philosopher Sam Harris argues that science should be an authority on moral issues because it can tell us about the conditions that promote human well-being. Please watch Dr. Harris’ (2010) TED talk (or read the attached transcript) on this topic. Dr. Harris’ provides several examples of situations where, in his opinion, science provides a better roadmap for morality than does religion.

This is a much trickier question that it seems at first glance. In order to respond, you need to ask yourself two crucial questions. First, what does it mean to be a “modern” parent – what are the challenges that modern parents face that make parenting especially hard in the 21st century? Second, you need to define what “good parenting” is. What is the metric we use to define success as parents? The responses to this question are likely to be quite diverse, but that’s okay. An excellent response will address the two crucial questions, which lead to an answer that incorporates at least 3 of the weekly learning resources (include citations and references). In addition, find and incorporate at least one credible news article or journal article that supports your response. This article should be no more than 2 years old. http://ezproxy.umgc.edu/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/umuc/reader.action?ppg=300&docID=10581305&tm=1415296208178 http://ezproxy.umgc.edu/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/umuc/reader.action?ppg=326&docID=10581305&tm=1415296138640 http://ezproxy.umgc.edu/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=96280252&site=eds-live&scope=site http://ezproxy.umgc.edu/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=f5h&AN=92690559&site=eds-live&scope=site

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the required chapters from the text and review the required articles for this week. The risk-benefit calculation for any drug assumes a correct diagnosis of the disorder. Many investigators and clinicians feel the current epidemic of child psychiatric disorders is largely due to inappropriate diagnosis. Evaluate the risk and benefits of using psychoactive drugs in children correctly diagnosed with a disorder versus those incorrectly diagnosed with a disorder. Consider the risks and benefits of not treating (drug treatment) a child because he or she is not correctly diagnosed with a disorder. In your evaluation summarize the natural course of the disorder, the drug action on the neurotransmitter systems in question, and the likelihood of short-term, long-term, and permanent positive and negative effects of drug treatment. Make sure to take into account the ethical dimension of this risk-benefit calculation.

Children and adolescents tend to engage in so-called “black and white” thinking. In other words, they tend to judge people and situations in dualistic, rather than relativistic, terms. In early adulthood, individuals begin to reason about situations using a more flexible framework that helps them to resolve contradictions between different perspectives. Describe a situation in which you or someone you know has had to move beyond “black and white” thinking and has been able to develop a more relativistic perspective. Answer the following: Support your arguments with research, citing sources. Write your initial response in 150–200 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. By , post your response to the appropriate . Through , review and comment on at least two peers’ responses. Ask a question, remark on an analysis presented, or suggest an alternative view.

The World Health Organization (n.d.) identifies health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being” (p. 1). This quote refers to the notion that health should not be reduced to a single, biological source; rather, biology must be considered in relation to other psychological and social factors. George Engel, a psychiatrist in the 1970s, developed the biopsychosocial model to avoid the pitfalls of reductionism so often associated with the traditional medical model. A practitioner using the model to diagnose and treat depression might consider the patient’s family history of depression (biological factor), life stressors, such as the loss of a job (psychological factors), and level of social support from family and friends (social factor). In this discussion, you will explore the biopsychosocial model in more detail and how it can be applied to a variety of different health issues. a response to the following:

“Groups as Systems.” Zajonc states, “Synergy can take either a physical or a mental form. The physical presence of others is often arousing, so more work is accomplished. Even ants work harder when there is more than one of them on the job” (Henman, n.d., p.2). In the mental sense, synergy forms when a type of collective intelligence and shared memory begin to develop as the group matures. Reflect on a group experience where you noticed this shift to synergy with your group. (Some ideas: at a human services agency where you work, a different occupation, serving on a committee, a group in college, etc.) Describe this experience as vividly as possible, with plenty of detail and analysis of as many group members (in regards to their contributions to attaining synergy) that you can recall.

Jack and Susan are a young couple who have come to you for help. Five years ago, they opened a Greek restaurant with Jack’s Grandmother (and all her Greek recipes). Their restaurant has now become one of the most popular spots in town. This past year they had their first child, and this has made it difficult to keep up with everything at the restaurant. They share a love of cooking, but the demands of keeping up a successful business and family are becoming overwhelming. Jack’s grandmother is unable to keep up with the busy pace at work and seems more interested in spending time with her great-grandbaby. How would you apply the principles outlined in Modules/Weeks 1–7 to help Jack and Susan with their business? Cloud, H. (2008). . New York, NY: HarperCollins. ISBN: 9780061466434. Stoltzfus, T.

What raw materials combine to create human emotions? How does the brain construct emotion? Certain theories suggest that emotions hinge on the axes of the following pairs of dimensions: pleasure-misery and arousal-sleep. Does this formula capture the variability of human emotion? Consider the interplay between cognition and emotion. Some theories posit that emotions consist of automatic responses to stimuli. Other theories suggest that cognitive processes influence the ways in which people perceive emotions. For this Discussion, select a theory of emotions. Consider why the theory you selected is optimal for the classification of emotions. a brief description of the theory you selected from the articles in the Learning Resources. Then explain why this theory is optimal for the classification of emotions. Finally, describe the SPAARS model and explain how it relates to the theory you selected. Support your response using the Learning Resources and current literature.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the required chapters from the text and review the required articles for this week. Humans have engaged in psychoactive drug use, sometimes in formal (ceremonial) settings and sometimes recreationally, since before recorded history. It has only been in the last century or so that abuse and addiction have become large-scale problems. Using the literature and your own insights into these issues, formulate an argument as to why the problem has reached its current scale. In your discussion, evaluate the employment of psychoactive drugs from the aspects of a risk-benefits analysis and ethical considerations such as the risk of addiction versus the cost of punitive action. Also explain purely pharmacological issues such as pharmacokinetics and routes of drug administration and dose. If needed, include factors such as supply, cultural attitudes to drug use, and the context of drug use.

Television provides us with many interesting examples of interpersonal and neurotic behaviors. In this assignment, you will delve into the life and actions of some of your favorite television characters and analyze them using Horney’s coping strategies. Interestingly, Horney’s three coping strategies for one’s neurotic needs correlate very well with three of Adler’s different personality types: Using Horney’s theory of coping with neurotic needs with three different interpersonal orientations, select a TV program of your choice containing a character that Horney would identify as exhibiting neurotic behaviors. As you watch a full episode of this show, focus on this character and tally each instance of moving-toward, moving-against, and moving-away behavior.

I chose Impulse Control Disorder. Why you find it interesting or compelling; The reason why I selected the concept, I find it interesting. What about this idea or concept do you want to learn more about; Why children and adolescents severely struggle to control their emotions and behaviors. Impulse control disorders are characterized by chronic problems in which people lack the ability to maintain self-control. Children and adolescents with impulse control disorders frequently engage in repetitive, destructive behaviors despite the adverse consequences that arise from the participation in those behaviors (Resource Treatment Center, 2018). Terminology from the Learning Resources; I think Impulse Control Disorder can fall under Cognitive psychology, which refers to the study of human mental processes and their role in thinking, feeling, and behaving. The related discipline of cognitive neuroscience uses neuroimaging methods to relate activity in the brain to behavioral measurements (Kellogg, 2016).

Conflicts display widely different characteristics, which means professionals working to resolve them must have a wide repertoire of intervention strategies to contribute to their resolution. Thus far, you have explored different approaches to conflict based on style; cultural influences on conflict; and strategies that address power, rights, and/or interests. There are, however, some commonalities to conflict intervention strategies. By distilling these similarities, you may begin to develop a framework on which to build your own philosophy and working system of intervention strategies.

NEED SOMEONE WITH SCIENCE? PSYCHOLOGY/ RESEARCH BACKGROUND In the context of research design, two types of validity, which speak to the quality of different features of the research process, are considered: internal validity and external validity. Assuming that the findings of a research study are internally valid—i.e., the researcher has used controls to determine that the outcome is indeed due to manipulation of the independent variable or the treatment—external validity refers to the extent to which the findings can be generalized from the sample to the population or to other settings and groups. Reliability refers to the replicability of the findings. For this Discussion, you will consider threats to internal and external validity in quantitative research and the strategies used to mitigate these threats. You will also consider the ethical implications of designing quantitative research. With these thoughts in mind: a selection of your classmates’ postings.

Although there are many controversial topics in social psychology, this week’s theme of altruism versus egoism is one of the most provocative. The debate over whether humans are capable of pure altruism versus egoism is typically witnessed in the philosophy realm. However, there have been many social psychology studies conducted to determine whether or not humans are, in fact, capable of pure altruism. There is sound research to support both sides of the argument. Some of the research has shown that people do good deeds because they derive some benefit from them while others do good deeds for completely selfless reasons. This week your discussion will consist of a debate with your classmates on altruism versus egoism. You and your classmates will consider and cover the following topics in your arguments: Carefully review the for the criteria that will be used to evaluate this Discussion Thread.

Behaviorism and psychoanalysis (or psychodynamic theory—not the psychotherapy approach) are sometimes considered theoretically opposite. However, they share some characteristics in common. In a similar way, one could consider humanistic and cognitive psychology to be quite different, yet there are areas of common ground here as well.

Choose two schools of thought (the mental testing movement, behaviorism, psychoanalytic theory, humanistic psychology, cognitive psychology, or psychobiology) and discuss how they differ. What distinguishes the schools of thought from each other, in terms of their principles, values, subject matter, research approaches, and applied methods? Also address which factors they share with each other, using the aforementioned attributes as they apply. Remember that we are exploring comprehensive theories of human nature and behavior, not psychotherapeutic techniques (for example, cognitive behavioral therapy or psychoanalytic therapy).
