Forensic report (rajat mishra)

Mishra Rajat

Before moving through diagnostic decision making, a social worker needs to conduct an interview that builds on a biopsychosocial assessment. New parts are added that clarify the timing, nature, and sequence of symptoms in the diagnostic interview. The Mental Status Exam (MSE) is a part of that process. The MSE is designed to systematically help diagnosticians recognize patterns or syndromes of a person’s cognitive functioning. It includes very particular, direct observations about affect and other signs of which the client might not be directly aware. When the diagnostic interview is complete, the diagnostician has far more detail about the fluctuations and history of symptoms the patient self-reports, along with the direct observations of the MSE. This combination greatly improves the chances of accurate diagnosis. Conducting the MSE and other special diagnostic elements in a structured but client-sensitive manner supports that goal. In this Assignment, you take on the role of a social worker conducting an MSE. To prepare: Watch the video describing an MSE. Then watch the Sommers-Flanagan (2014) “Mental Status Exam” video clip. Make sure to take notes on the nine domains of the interview. Review the Morrison (2014) reading on the elements of a diagnostic interview. Review the 9 Areas to evaluate for a Mental Status Exam and example diagnostic summary write-up provided in this Week’s resources. Review the case example of a diagnostic summary write-up provided in this Week’s resources. Write up a Diagnostic Summary including the Mental Status Exam for Carl based upon his interview with Dr. Sommers-Flanagan. By Day 7 Submit a 2- to 3-page case presentation paper in which you complete both parts outlined below: Part I: Diagnostic Summary and MSE Provide a diagnostic summary of the client, Carl. Within this summary include: Identifying Data/Client demographics Chief complaint/Presenting Problem Present illness Past psychiatric illness Substance use history Past medical history Family history Mental Status Exam (Be professional and concise for all nine areas) Appearance Behavior or psychomotor activity Attitudes toward the interviewer or examiner Affect and mood Speech and thought Perceptual disturbances Orientation and consciousness Memory and intelligence Reliability, judgment, and insight Part II: Analysis of MSE After completing Part I of the Assignment, provide an analysis and demonstrate critical thought (supported by references) in your response to the following: Identify any areas in your MSE that require follow-up data collection. Explain how using the cross-cutting measure would add to the information gathered. Do Carl’s answers add to your ability to diagnose him in any specific way? Why or why not? Would you discuss a possible diagnosis with Carl at time point in time? Why? Support Part II with citations/references. The DSM 5 and case study do not need to be cit.

Task There will be one writing assignment in this course to give you practice and opportunities to get feedback on your writing. This is an individual writing assignment. For this writing assignment, you will be given an economic podcast and will be asked to critically evaluate it. You will be graded on the quality and thoroughness of your analysis. Therefore, you will also be graded on the clarity, flow and overall cohesiveness of the writing in your paper. Podcast: http://freakonomics.com/podcast/uber-economists-dream/ (Links to an external site.) Paper Outline Introduction (5 points): The introduction (first paragraph) briefly summarizes what you consider to be the main point(s) of the article. If there are many, focus on the one(s) that you will analyze in the assignment. Summary (5 points): A short summary of the podcast should be included. This summary should capture the key points presented in the article and any important facts or elements. Do not spend the whole assignment summarizing the entire podcast. Summaries should be succinct and to the point and be approximately one paragraph. Analysis (15 points): Your analysis should use economic concepts you have learnt in class. In other words, analysis should focus on how topics covered in class are applicable/relevant to the real world. Be sure to demonstrate your analysis using graphs and/or models learned in class. Be careful to address the appropriate audience. Remember; narrow your focus so that your analysis can be more in-depth. That is much more important than hitting every point made in the podcast. Critical Evaluation (20 points): This is the most important aspect of this assignment. Students should focus on whether they agree with what is stated in the podcast or what their recommendations may be. Students can also analyze how the material in the podcast will impact the economy in a micro setting. The analysis portion has the potential to be varied in nature. However, I recommend sticking to my guidelines below: · To evaluate an article you need first to understand the author’s arguments. Start by identifying the assumptions inherent in the argument, checking to see if the conclusions follow from these assumptions. Try to distinguish the argument from the evidence provided to support the argument · To do a critical evaluation, essentially you should take apart the various steps in the argument and see if they make sense separately and as a whole. Can you use the tools learned in class to think about the argument in another way? Check to see if the author is missing anything in his/her argument or has used some tool or method incorrectly or inappropriately. Is there evidence that contradicts their argument? · You need to have 1 – 2 economic models we have learned during the semester. (ie, Supply/Demand, Cost Curves, Perfect Competition, Monopolistic Competition, Monopoly, etc) Conclusion (5 points): It is important to have a strong conclusion sinc.

Successful integration of your skills is a significant aspect of this course. Throughout this course, you have learned about the variety of forensic psychological assessments. In this assignment, apply what you have learned in this course to analyze a report of a recently paroled offender. Scenario: You are working as a forensic mental health professional in a parole outpatient clinic, which has received a forensic psychological and risk assessment report on a paroled offender. You have been asked evaluate the report and present it to the Board of Parole. Click here to download the forensic psychology and risk assessment report. Tasks: Evaluate the forensic psychology and risk assessment report and create an 8- to 10-page essay in a Microsoft Word document addressing the following: Identify and describe the role and purpose of the report. Comment on whether the evaluation was or was not necessary. State the reasons for your opinion. Apply considerations of any information or sections that you found missing in the report as well as information that you found to be not relevant, i.e., elements that should have been omitted. In other words, what could have been added to or excluded from the report? Discuss the ways in which cultural sensitivity and aspects of diversity were addressed in the report, including any ways in which the report could be made more culturally sensitive and include greater considerations of elements of diversity. Identify and describe at least two additional psychological assessments or measures that you would have administered to obtain additional relevant information for the report. Feel free to list more than two as appropriate. Be sure to also consider cultural implications of the tests which you select. Explain how you would use the recommendations in the report to assist in the development of a treatment plan. Discuss in what capacity the report may be used in alternative venues. For example, can this report be utilized by other professionals in the future? If so, in what capacity? Discuss the overall quality and readability of this report, including a scholarly critique of the writing. As you evaluate the report be sure to avoid using the word “I” in formal writing. Remember, the reader of your assignment will know it is your voice since you are the author of your paper. Also, consider the difference between the following two statements, “I think the report needed to have included . . .” and “The report needed to have included . . .” The first statement has some redundancy by the writer’s use of the word “I,” whereas the second statement displays greater confidence. Your essay should rely upon at least seven scholarly resources from the professional literature that are cited in APA format. The literature may include the Argosy University online li ...

IDS 400 Milestone Four Guidelines and Rubric Analyzing an Issue or Event in Diversity Through the Lenses of the Natural and Applied Sciences and the Social Sciences Overview: For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select an issue or event in diversity and critically analyze it through the four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. By viewing the issue or event through these lenses, you will gain insight into how the intersectional nature of diversity affects society as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices, attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you. For this fourth milestone, due in Module Six, you will analyze your issue/event in diversity through the lenses of the natural and applied sciences and the social sciences. Like Milestone Two, this task provides you with an opportunity to dive deeper into your analysis of the issue/event through these two lenses. This will provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue/event through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt. Prompt: First, review your work in Modules Five and Six, as well as the Four Lenses document from Module One. Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences by exploring the following questions:  How does this issue/event provide a social commentary through the natural and applied sciences?  In what ways can science help resolve or enhance your issue/event? Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the social sciences, and address the following:  How does this issue/event interact with the social sciences lens and impact social issues?  In what ways does the social science lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the social issue(s) that inform your issue/event? Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from the natural and applied sciences and one from the social sciences. You must submit two papers in a single Word document. Be sure to use evidence from research to support your analysis. Refer to course resources, the LibGuide for this course, and any other pertinent resources to support your responses. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor approval. Incorporate instructor feedback into Final Project Part One. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Lens Analysis: In this section of your assignment, you will analyze your issue/event through two of the four general education lenses. A. Analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences for determining its impact on various institutions. Utilize evidence from research to support your analysis. https://learn.snhu.edu/content/enforced/196286-MASTER-IDS-400-CEIDS-OL-TRAD.19EW5/Course%20Documents/IDS%20400%20Four%20General%20Education%20Lenses.pdf?_&d2lSe.

Dissertation Prospectus Introduction This research is aimed at understanding the role of unconscious responses in the development of criminal behavior. While existing literature points to the unconscious mind being used as a defense by criminals in the court of law, there are still many grey areas that are yet to be fully understood. Numerous theories have been used to address this phenomenon but one that stands out most is Freud’s psychodynamic perspective. He postulated that human behavior, including violent behavior, was as a result of unconscious forces operating within the mind (Kenny, 2019). Th ...

Consider the discussion in "Texas's Shift from Blue to Red Informs 2014 Races." The "red-blue" debate in Texas is essentially an issue of party realignment. The transformation of Texas from a one-party Democratic state to that of essentially a one-party Republican state occurred over several years in which there was a convergence of many different factors, including economics,demographics, trends in national politics, and the role of key political actors. For those predicting the possibility of Texas becoming a "blue" state with the resurgence of the Democratic Party, what lessons might be drawn from the Republican realignment that produced the party's current domination of the state government and many local governments throughout Texas? .

Consider Lydia’s and John’s cognitive and physical limitations as well as their social support. If you were presenting this case to a team of other human services providers, what developmental theories, concepts, and principles help explain this case? What other information might you need to fully evaluate the situation in which Lydia and John live? If you were the protective service worker, what are the options for this couple? Identify several feasible plans with explanation and support from a source of information. Include the risks and benefits of each option. Then, identify what your final recommendation would be and why. Case Study Lydia and John were a couple in their nineties who lived in their own home and had been married over sixty years. Both were confused and forgetful. They had two sons who were in their seventies and lived in nearby towns. One son was estranged from them. The other was somewhat involved in their lives, but he had a mentally ill wife and health problems of his own to deal with. The couple first came to the attention of a protective service worker when John was hospitalized after a fall. When left on her own, Lydia’s confusion became more pronounced. A referral was made for home care services, but, when a worker went out to assess the couple, their son was present and refused services. Based on concerns of benign neglect, a protective services report was issued. A caseworker investigated and substantiated the report, citing the son’s interference with services and the couple’s own inability to provide adequate care for each other. The protective services worker found both John and Lydia to be very forgetful and somewhat confused, though Lydia was more impaired. Due to their increased physical frailty, they had been using only the first floor of their home. Since the bedrooms and bathroom were upstairs, the living arrangement presented several problems for the couple. Lydia had a regular bed, but John was sleeping on a cot. The low height of the cot caused him to lose his balance easily, resulting in several falls. Since there was no toilet downstairs, they were using a bucket in the kitchen and emptying it outside. They were unable to maintain their home and conditions became unsanitary. The son tried to help, but he had his own limitations. The elderly couple was well able to afford assistance, but they did not want to spend the money. Furthermore, even though the son who helped with paying the bills was not taking advantage of his parents financially, he was obviously concerned with “preserving his inheritance.” Meanwhile, John and Lydia were extremely conservative in terms of how they chose to spend their money; they insisted they could not afford help. .

Consent, Confidentiality, and Privileged Communication can be tricky concepts in the profession of counseling particularly when working with minors. FIRST, define each term. SECOND, review the two vignettes below address points A and B below. I expect you all to have healthy debate around these issues. You may need to review laws in the state where you hope to practice as the "age of consent" may vary by state based on the chronological age of the child and/or the reason why they are seeking treatment. 1. Susie (16-years-old) and Susie’s parents came in to discuss treatment with LMFT Mark. LMFT Mark reviewed his standard informed consent with both Susie and her parents, including a section on confidentiality which briefly mentioned reasons for a breach of confidentiality including “harm to self.” After the third session, Susie admitted to LMFT Mark that she was sexually active with a few different people in her high school, and that she smoked marijuana on weekends. LMFT Mark determined that this did not rise to the level of “harm to self” worthy of a breach of confidentiality but instead he would work with her clinically. After the fifth session, she told LMFT Mark that she had been “cutting” but never near an artery. LMFT Mark again determined not to breach confidentiality. After the seventh session, Susie told LMFT Mark that she had been drinking heavily, and had started blacking out at parties, waking up in strange beds (clearly having had sexual intercourse). LMFT Mark decided to tell Susie’s parents about the drinking and blackouts. 2. LMFT Mable has been seeing Davey (5-years-old) for almost a year. Throughout the treatment, Davey has talked about his relationship with his parents and how their divorce makes him sad. Davey has indicated that while he loves his Mom, he likes spending time with his Dad more because his Dad doesn’t yell at him as much and Mom seems to always “be out.” Recently, Mom has called LMFT Mable and asked for a copy of Davey’s file so she can “use it in the custody battle.” LMFT Mable is not sure whether she is legally mandated to turn over the file to Mom. Also, she recently received a subpoena from Dad’s attorney for Davey’s file. LMFT Mable is not sure if she can legally or clinically should turn over the files. A. Discuss whether or not, in your opinion, the therapist’s conduct is appropriate in the context of any and all laws, regulations, and ethical standards that may apply. B. Explore any other options that are available to the therapist and any potential consequences of those options. Indicate what you believe to be the best course of action, in light of the applicable laws, regulations, and ethical standards. .

Connecting Knowledge with Research in Case Studies Tolulope Moses 6200 WEEK 8 Assignment Connecting Knowledge with Research in Case Studies Introduction One of the core elements of social work is the comprehensive assessment of a situation in a case which aids in developing effective interventions. In this regard, the understanding and application of knowledge are imperative in making the most profound decisions. In cases involving adolescents, among the most important knowledge is that on human behavior and social environment which is described as understanding how people relate to their environment including social interactions and relationships. According to Zastrow and Kirst-Ashman (2016), it is important to set realistic goals with the client consistent with the needs and requirements while applying obtained knowledge to implement the developed interventions. This paper entails a case study on Eboni Logan, proposed goals, and relating it with a peer-reviewed article. Eboni Logan Case The case used in this project is that of Eboni Logan, a 16-year-old biracial African American/Caucasian female who is two months pregnant. Eboni lives with her mother Darlene, and grandmother, May. She has been working at a fast food restaurant for 10 hours per week. Eboni has a boyfriend named Darian with whom they have been engaging in sexual activities without contraceptives. Both Eboni and Darian have no criminal records nor do they manifest alcohol or drug abuse although they take these elements occasionally. While Eboni’s mother works as an administrative assistant at a local manufacturing company, her father is a mechanic who supports Ebony through social and financial wellbeing. Eboni has recently learned she is pregnant, an aspect that introduces a number of problems for her and the social environment. Case Problems The case problems involve Eboni’s pregnancy. First, all her social environment including the grandmother and mother are upset with the situation. Her mother in particular hurled insults while calling her a slut. Her father was also upset although he agreed to provide her with a place to stay. The first challenge in this regard entails the broken relationship with her social environment and especially her mother. The second challenge is that Darian, who is the child’s father, states that he is not ready to support the baby and although he has not mentioned it explicitly, he prefers an abortion which Eboni does not want. The issue in this regard is how Eboni will nature her pregnancy and the baby yet she is still an adolescent and at school which might be forced to terminate for the moment. In addition, it may be worrying about how she will live with her father and stepmother considering the situation. Goals The goals, in this case, are informed by the above-identified problems and Eboni as the main client in the situation. The first goal would entail re-establishing the relationship with her social environme.

Congress and the Presidency: An Unequal Relationship? "The tyranny of the legislature is really the danger most to be feared, and will continue to be so for many years to come. The tyranny of the executive power will come in its turn, but at a more distant period." - Thomas Jefferson In 1783 American colonists, defying incredible odds, had just beaten the United Kingdom, western hemisphere's preeminent power, in the American War for Independence . (NPS.gov, n.d.) Now, these thirteen colonies, saddled with a new governmental charter, the onerous Articles of Confederation , sought to chart their own, independent path. (Gilderlehrman, n.d.) As a result, in 1787 disgruntled colonists sent delegates to Philadelphia in order to revise the dysfunctional Articles of Confederation. Yet, in a radical departure, most delegates decided not to amend the current constitution, but instead to craft a new Constitution. (OConnor & Sabato, 2019) During the four month Constitutional Convention the delegates readily agreed upon James Madison’s basic premise of a new, United States government delineated along three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. That said, most delegates envisioned a strong legislative body and a weak executive office. (Maier, 2011) Today, many historians and political scientists argue that the institution of the presidency has dramatically increased in power since the end of WWII at the expense of Congress. This notion of a modern, expansive presidential power, stands in steadied contrast to Congress’ Constitutional ability to “check” the executive branch. The U.S Congress has three, broad powers that, as per the founding fathers, act as a “check” against the executive branch: Lawmaking Power. Only Congress can propose and pass legislation. An example of Congress’s lawmaking function is the Declaration of War with Japan of 1941 . More information about Congress’s ability to declare war can be found on the official House of Representatives’ website . Budgetary Power. Only Congress has the authority to pass and fund the federal budget. Whereas the president request monies for the federal bureaucracies, Congress actually controls the purse strings. An example of Congress’s budgetary function is the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 . More information about the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 can be found on the official House of Representatives’ website . Oversight Power. As per Whitehouse.gov, “Oversight of the executive branch is an important Congressional check on the President’s power and a balance against his discretion in implementing laws and making regulations. A major way that Congress conducts oversight is through hearings. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs are both devoted to overseeing and reforming government operations, and each committee conducts oversight in its policy area.” (Whitehouse, .
