George: Using many lenses to assess cases George is brought to a community outpatient mental health clinic due to his parent’s observation that he is “not acting like a normal 13-year-old.” George’s parents report that he is failing school, has no peer group, and he is often angry at home, “lashing out at this younger brother and sister.” They brought him to the clinic because they think he is suffering from the same mental illness his mother has, and the last straw was that he was found with marijuana in his bedroom. The family reports a long and detailed family history of substance abuse. And, they report that George’s mother lives with debilitating symptoms of anxiety and intermittent depressive episodes. When you talk to George, he reports “My parents are exaggerating. I have friends. And, my little brother and sister are annoying, and are always bothering me and stealing my stuff. Besides I prefer hanging out by myself. Discussion: What are some of the “lenses” that social workers can view this case? ● Medical (Mental Health and Substance-Use) ● Family context ● School context ● Structural context ● What about the social context? ○ Does that matter? ○ How How might our treatment plans differ depending on which lens we use? How might our interventions choices differ? How can we maintain a focus on the social context when thinking about cases on all levels? .

Ella is a 15-year old high-school freshman. She lives in a small sub.pdf
Ella is a 15-year old high-school freshman. She lives in a small suburban town with her younger
brother, Brody, and her parents, Minka and Bruce. In the past, Ella was always a straight-A
student. She loved school and had many close friends. She was actively involved in cheerleading
and drama club. Ella\'s parents report that over the last 6 months, Ella\'s grades have dropped
significantly. She decided that cheerleading is \"not cool\" and she does not want to be in the
drama club any more. She lost about 15 pounds and is often arguing with her brother and her
family. She does not like to socialize with her friends anymore and is always on the computer but
will not share what she is doing. Ella\'s parents recently reconciled after a 4-month separation.
Bruce was just discharged from a substance-use inpatient center where he was receiving
treatment for alcohol dependence. Her mother carries a diagnosis for anorexia nervosa but has
not displayed any symptoms for 5 years. Both of her parents have been actively engaged in
family counseling and individual therapy as well.
Based on this scenario, answer the following:
What additional information would be helpful for you to effectively form a diagnosis?
What theory of adolescent development would you use to gain an understanding of what is
happening with Ella? Remember, it is often necessary to consider and even apply more than one
theory when working with an adolescent.
How would you compare and contrast the development of Ella\'s issues from a cognitive, social,
and psychodynamic perspective?
Which theory best supports the behaviors that we are currently seeing with Ella?
Solution
The additional information that is required is whethere ella has gone for depression checkups or
has been detected with depression and if she has received therapies.
The theory is the ecological theory which tells about the interaction between indisvisual and the
environment.This is given by URIE BRONFENBRENNER.This theory tells about yow the
adolescents are influenced by family, peers, religion, schools, the media, community, and world
events.
Ella\'s case is the case of depression causes due to social anxiety as she doesnt want to meet
people and her family was seprated for 4 months. She is going through phases but it doesnt
include cognitive anxiety.
The theory of social cognitive learning is very important for her to understand the relations and
society..

Assignment 3: Case Study Analysis I
The first step in understanding the behaviors that are associated with mental disorders is to be able to differentiate the potential symptoms of a mental disorder from the everyday fluctuations or behaviors that we observe. Read the following brief case histories.
Case Study 1:
Bob is a very intelligent, 25-year-old member of a religious organization based on Buddhism. Bob’s working for this organization has caused considerable conflict between him and his parents, who are devout Baptists. Recently, Bob has experienced acute spells of nausea and fatigue that have prevented him from working and have forced him to return home to live with his parents. Various medical tests are being conducted, but as yet, no physical causes for his problems have been found.
Case Study 2:
Mary is a 30-year-old musician who is very dedicated and successful in her work as a teacher in a local high school and as a part-time member of local musical groups. Since her marriage five years ago, which ended in divorce after six months, she has dated very few men. She often worries about her time running out for establishing a good relationship with a man, getting married, and raising a family. Her friends tell her she gets way too anxious around men, and, in general, she needs to relax a little.
Case Study 3:
Jim was vice-president of the freshmen class at a local college and played on the school’s football team. Later that year, he dropped out of these activities and gradually became more and more withdrawn from friends and family. Neglecting to shave and shower, he began to look dirty and unhealthy. He spent most of his time alone in his room and sometimes complained to his parents that he heard voices in the curtains and in the closet. In his sophomore year, he dropped out of school entirely. With increasing anxiety and agitation, he began to worry that the Nazis were plotting to kill his family and kidnap him.
Case Study 4:
Larry, a 37-year-old gay man, has lived for three years with his partner, whom he met in graduate school. Larry works as a psychologist in a large hospital. Although competent in his work, he often feels strained by the pressures of his demanding position. An added source of tension on the job is his not being out with his co-workers, and, thus, he is not able to confide in anyone or talk about his private life. Most of his leisure activities are with good friends who are also part of the local gay community.
For each case, identify the individual's behaviors that seem to be problematic for the patient.
For each case study, explain from the biological, psychological, or socio-cultural perspective your decision-making process for identifying the behaviors that may or may not have been associated with the symptoms of a mental disorder.
Based on your course and text readings, provide an explanation why you would consider some of these cases to exhibit behaviors that may be associated with problems that occur in eve.

Case Study JohnnyJohnny is a 9 year old boy brought to the .docx
Case Study: Johnny
Johnny is a 9 year old boy brought to the emergency room where you are employed as a crisis therapist. The patient was transported by a crisis mobile team who was called by the school. The evaluation by the ER physician as well as the urine drug screen is unremarkable: there are no acute or chronic concerns with this patient. In the chart, you note the DSM-5 Parent/Guardian-Rated Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure—Child Age 6–17 form completed by the mother (attached). Admission paperwork identifies that Johnny has had numerous visits to the principal’s office in the past year, all triggered by various disruptive behaviors.
Today’s crisis started when Johnny refused to follow directions regarding an in-class assignment. When the teacher attempted to redirect his behavior things escalated rapidly: Johnny yelled at the teacher, cursed at him using vulgar language, and when the teacher grabbed him by the shoulders to take him to the principal’s office Johnny impulsively stabbed the teacher in the arm with a pencil he was clenching in his hand. Johnny was escorted to the principal’s office who immediately called the police and Johnny’s parents. The police officer was compelled to contact the county crisis hotline who dispatched a crisis mobile team. The crisis clinicians made the determination that Johnny is a danger to others and he must be taken immediately to the nearest emergency room for emergency psychiatric evaluation. Johnny has refused to speak to the ER physician or his nurse.
You gather most of your clinical information from his mother who is at the bedside. Johnny’s mother reports that he has always been a clever, charming, and very playful boy. She informed that for the past year Johnny has been increasingly stubborn, repeatedly challenging his mother’s and his teacher’s authority when compliance with home and/or classroom rules is required. Johnny used to be an A+ student. For the past year, however he has been averaging Bs in most subjects, grades that he earned effortlessly.
His mother repeatedly assures you that his drop in grades is not due to lack of intellectual ability but rather because Johnny prefers playing over any type of work. His mother denies any changes in sleep, appetite, or any mood fluctuations. Furthermore, his mom reports that Johnny is a healthy and happy boy who is interested in sports, the outdoors, videogames, and that he wishes to become a software engineer when he grows up. She reports that the school counselor has mentioned that Johnny may be suffering from ADHD or even bipolar disorder. The thought of these diagnoses appear very disturbing to Johnny’s mom. She quickly assures you that she has not observed Johnny to ever struggle with depression, or distractibility, and reports that he has always been a good sleeper. She reports that Johnny has never made any statements amounting to thoughts or impulses to harm self or others.

Week 9: Case 1, Sexuality
Loretta is a 17-year-old white female. She is a student in a partial-day treatment center
focusing on vocational and social skill development. Loretta has a wide range of
disabilities related, at least in part, to a brain injury she suffered as a toddler. She has
specific learning disabilities in the areas of writing and reading. Despite her challenges,
Loretta is a hard worker. Because of her positive attitude and work ethic within the day
treatment setting, Loretta has a good reputation for being dependable and trustworthy.
However, over the past 6 months, Loretta has decided she likes sex. She has been
caught having sexual contact at the treatment center and also at home in the evenings
and on the weekends. This behavior is concerning to Loretta’s parents. They are
worried about her sexual safety, potential pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases,
and Loretta’s behavior is outside their comfort zone. They have tried lecturing,
grounding her, and other threats and punishments. Loretta does not see anything wrong
with her behavior. Apparently, the pleasure she associates with sex more than offsets
the consequences she has gotten from her parents, and she seems relatively oblivious
to the additional potential consequences of sexually transmitted diseases and
pregnancy.
Week 9: Case 2, Sexual Orientation
Patrick is a 9-year-old African American boy enrolled in the fourth grade in a private
Christian school. Patrick is exceptionally intelligent and very academically successful.
However, based on reports from his parents and from his teachers, he has always
struggled in the social domain. Most recently, Patrick has been causing a disturbance in
the classroom by telling teachers and students that one of the other male students in
the class is his boyfriend and insisting that he loves boys, not girls. This behavior has
been extremely difficult for his parents to accept as they hold a rather traditional
Christian perspective. The thought of their son being gay is very disturbing for them.
You initially were contacted by Patrick’s parents, who made it clear to you they think
Patrick is acting out in an effort to gain attention from his peers. They also make it clear
that they are either unwilling or unable to consider the possibility that Patrick might be
gay. When the three of them show up in your office, the parents dominate the
conversation and tell Patrick he needs to work with you to get things straightened out.
Their goal is for you to work with Patrick so he will put a stop to his silly and disturbing
claims of having romantic feelings for boys. Patrick refuses to offer any goals for
counseling. When you meet with him alone, he slowly opens up and you end up
somewhat convinced that this boy really does feel he is gay and likely needs to explore
his se.

Case Study #1
Young-Hwa, a 40-year-old Korean male, had immigrated to the United States 15 years ago without proper documentation. He had a hard life because, despite his training as a chef in Korea, he had difficulty finding a well-paying job without proper documentation. He also had a hard time getting along with others for long periods of time in some of the kitchens that he worked for.
He would do really well for a while talking about how much he enjoyed the job thinking that this was going to be his lucky break, but after several months he would either quit or get fired.
During these times of being out of work he is very depressed and irritable and will sleep for days without coming out of his bedroom.
After many years of various positions including kitchen assistant and assistant cook, he finally landed his dream job of a top chef in a Korean restaurant.
He recently was married to a Caucasian woman who had a daughter from a prior relationship and now they have twin sons.
Their marriage would be described as fairly good with some hard times.

This document summarizes a research study on the psychosocial needs and coping strategies of children and adolescents living with a family member who has suicidal behavior. It presents preliminary results from interviews with 7 youths ages 14-20 who had a parent attempt suicide in the past 2 years. The youth were aware of the attempt and experienced stress and fear of further attempts. They closely monitored their parent for warning signs. While friends were a primary support, the youth received little formal support or information. Activities like sports and hobbies helped them cope. The study highlights the need to proactively offer these youth support to help them cope with their situation.Schizophrenia and Psychotic DisordersIndividuals with psyc.docx
Schizophrenia and Psychotic Disorders
Individuals with psychotic disorders are characterized by irrational, bizarre beliefs (delusions) and perceptual disturbances (hallucinations). Although these disorders have a relatively low prevalence, they account for a large portion of the costs of mental health care. These disorders start in early adulthood, are relatively chronic, and last an entire normal adult lifetime. Many individuals with schizophrenia are severely impaired and often unable to work or care for themselves. Many of the individuals with schizophrenia are homeless and are entangled in the criminal justice system due to the lack of community resources to treat them. Defendants who are successful with the insanity defense typically have a history of suffering from a severe and persistent mental illness, usually schizophrenia.
As a forensic mental health professional, two major reasons that increase your likelihood of interacting with individuals with schizophrenia are criminal behavior and suicide, as individuals with schizophrenia are at increased risk of both. Individuals with schizophrenia are more likely to commit suicide than individuals with any other diagnosis. As a forensic mental health professional, you should learn about the risk factors for suicide and suicide prevention skills.
Refer to the Webliography section to learn more on suicide prevention.
The issue of severe and persistent mental illness poses important ethical and legal questions. For example, is it ethical and legal to force people to take medications? Many of the antipsychotic medications have unpleasant side effects, some of which can be irreversible, such as tardive dyskinesia. Tardive dyskinesia is an extrapyramidal symptom that involves involuntary movements of the face, mouth, tongue, or jaw. This can cause difficulty in speaking and eating for the patient. Other ethical concerns are involuntary hospitalization and the placement of individuals with severe and persistent mental illness among the general prison population.
Psycholegal Issues
As a forensic health professional, it is important for you to understand the psycholegal issues of competency to stand trial and the insanity defense, both of which involve individuals with psychotic disorders (mental illness).
For example, the Supreme Court has ruled that individuals who cannot understand the punishment that they might receive or the reasons for it cannot be executed. Thus, in the United States, a person with severe mental illness cannot be executed if found incompetent to stand trial. There have been cases of mentally ill individuals on death row who have been found incompetent to be executed (not competent to receive the death penalty). In such instances, the role of the state is to return the person to competency in order for the individual to be executed since it can be assumed that the individual was competent at some time. If the person had been found incompetent, he or she would not have g.

Week 9: Case 1, Sexuality
Loretta is a 17-year-old white female. She is a student in a partial-day treatment center
focusing on vocational and social skill development. Loretta has a wide range of
disabilities related, at least in part, to a brain injury she suffered as a toddler. She has
specific learning disabilities in the areas of writing and reading. Despite her challenges,
Loretta is a hard worker. Because of her positive attitude and work ethic within the day
treatment setting, Loretta has a good reputation for being dependable and trustworthy.
However, over the past 6 months, Loretta has decided she likes sex. She has been
caught having sexual contact at the treatment center and also at home in the evenings
and on the weekends. This behavior is concerning to Loretta’s parents. They are
worried about her sexual safety, potential pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases,
and Loretta’s behavior is outside their comfort zone. They have tried lecturing,
grounding her, and other threats and punishments. Loretta does not see anything wrong
with her behavior. Apparently, the pleasure she associates with sex more than offsets
the consequences she has gotten from her parents, and she seems relatively oblivious
to the additional potential consequences of sexually transmitted diseases and
pregnancy.
Week 9: Case 2, Sexual Orientation
Patrick is a 9-year-old African American boy enrolled in the fourth grade in a private
Christian school. Patrick is exceptionally intelligent and very academically successful.
However, based on reports from his parents and from his teachers, he has always
struggled in the social domain. Most recently, Patrick has been causing a disturbance in
the classroom by telling teachers and students that one of the other male students in
the class is his boyfriend and insisting that he loves boys, not girls. This behavior has
been extremely difficult for his parents to accept as they hold a rather traditional
Christian perspective. The thought of their son being gay is very disturbing for them.
You initially were contacted by Patrick’s parents, who made it clear to you they think
Patrick is acting out in an effort to gain attention from his peers. They also make it clear
that they are either unwilling or unable to consider the possibility that Patrick might be
gay. When the three of them show up in your office, the parents dominate the
conversation and tell Patrick he needs to work with you to get things straightened out.
Their goal is for you to work with Patrick so he will put a stop to his silly and disturbing
claims of having romantic feelings for boys. Patrick refuses to offer any goals for
counseling. When you meet with him alone, he slowly opens up and you end up
somewhat convinced that this boy really does feel he is gay and likely needs to explore

A 32-year-old male patient presented with a 4-year gradual onset of symptoms including delusions of persecution and grandiosity, hallucinatory speech, mood changes, and social withdrawal. He has a history of cannabis use and a family history of psychiatric illness. A mental status examination found impaired judgment and insight with delusional thoughts. Laboratory tests were normal. He was diagnosed with schizophrenia and a dual diagnosis of substance use disorder.
My Life Bipolar Disorder
John Wick wrote about his experience living with bipolar disorder. He describes bipolar disorder as a brain illness characterized by shifts in mood and ability. It causes manic episodes where one feels overjoyed and excited, depressive episodes where one feels extremely sad and hopeless, and mixed episodes with symptoms of both. John was diagnosed at age 8 and takes lithium daily to stabilize his mood, though he still experiences manic and depressive episodes that impact his daily life. He hopes for greater understanding and awareness of mental illness from others.

Group Behavior in OrganizationsAt an organizational level,.docx
Group Behavior in Organizations
At an organizational level, group behavior is necessary for continued functioning of the
organization. Within an organization, there are established rules, procedures, and processes
developed that define how an organization operates. In addition, there are systems in place
to reward behaviors of those who effectively participate in the organization's operations.
Besides, there are also systems that define consequences that can take place in case
individuals behave outside the accepted practices of the organization. What develops out of
this is an employee's attachment to the organization based on common beliefs, values, and
traditions. The shared attachment and even the commitment to common beliefs, values, and
traditions make up an organization's culture (Helms & Stern, 2001; Lok & Crawford, 2001).
What Is Organization Culture?
Sheard and Kakabadse (2002) explained organizational culture in terms of solidarity and
sociability. Solidarity, in this case, referred to a group's willingness to pursue and maintain
conformity in shared objectives, processes, and systems. Sociability referred to a group's
sense of belongingness by its members and level of camaraderie.
They also mentioned there might be differences between hierarchies or levels within an
organization's culture. Based on the solidarity and sociability of each, upper management
might differ from the decisions made by middle management and line staff. These differences
might also occur between functional departments and, in larger organizations, between
geographically distinct sections of the organization.
What Sheard and Kakabadse wanted to emphasize through this discussion was there might
be distinct subcultures within an organization's culture.
According to De Long and Fahey (2000), "Subcultures consist of distinct sets of values,
norms, and practices exhibited by specific groups or units in an organization." Subcultures
may be readily observed in larger, more bureaucratic organizations or organizations having
well-established departments with employees that have highly specialized or possessing
unique skills.

Development of INR – Week 3

Relationship between Natural Law and Law of Nations?
Mediated by the idea of the state of nature as the predicament of insecurity:
Natural right: self-preservation.
Natural law: the observation of promises and contracts.
For states: minimum observation of natural law in the form of consenting to agreements.
Written agreement: treaty-making
Unwritten agreements: customary law
Hobbes
State of Nature: the condition in which individuals find themselves in a perpetual condition of war.
Natural right to self-preservation:
We each have the right to judge what is in our interest for self-preservation.
Conflict occurs because of:
Competition
Diffidence
Glory
Different meanings for words in the State of Nature; no ability in the State of Nature to determine whose judgment is valid (Wolin).
Life in the state of nature: “Solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short”
Commonwealth
Commonwealth by institution:
Social contract: it is the collective agreement among all individuals in the state of nature to establish:
Sovereign power
Able to speak and act for a multiplicity of people (which becomes a unified group).
State
The unity of sovereign power and the unified people.
Sovereign is the man or assembly that carries the person of the State.
State is the Leviathan: the mortal God on earth.
Sovereigns come and go but the State remains.
Consequences
The implication: fear is displaced from the condition of the state of nature to the relation between individual and state.
What continues to bind the state is fear of a return to the State of Nature:
the relation between individual and state is one of protection in exchange for obedience.
Private vs. public conscious: does one need to truly believe (i.e. like a Christian) or does the appearance of belief suffice?
“belief and unbelief never follow men’s commands.”
Loyalty only to those that are in power?
Historical context: The Norman Yoke and the English Civil Wars
Stability should not sacrificed as a result of ‘injustice’.
The rise of the ‘mechanical’ centralized administrative state.
Grotius
Dutch legal theorist 16th century;
Along with Vitoria and Gentili laid the foundation for the Law of Nations (Public European Law) on Natural Law.
Moves away from a theological conceptualization of Natural Law to a secular one.
Develops the notion of Natural Rights which becomes key for understanding human morality and law.
Notion of natural right emerged out of the massacre of St. Bartholomew (25 August 1572).
Attempted to establish limitation on the Sovereign’s power:
notion of individual right that the state cannot transgress.
Grotius: “a RIGHT is a moral quality annexed to the person, justly entitling him to possess some privilege, or to perform some particular act”
Four Fundamental Rights
1) the right for others not to take my possessions.
2) the right of restoration of property in case of injury.
3) honoring promises.
4) punish wrongdoing.

GROUP 1 Case 967-- A Teenage Female with an Ovarian MassCLI.docx
GROUP 1: Case 967-- A Teenage Female with an Ovarian Mass
CLINICAL HISTORY
A teenage female presented with secondary amenorrhea (https://www.healthline.com/health/secondary-amenorrhea#causes). The patient had 1 menstrual cycle 3 years ago and has had no menses since. Laboratory work-up was negative for pregnancy test, mildly increased calcium level (11.7 mg/dL, normal range: 8.5-10.2 mg/dL) and CA 125 (43 Units/ml, normal range: 0-20 Units/ml). Prolactin, TSH, AFP, Inhibin A, Inhibin B and CEA were normal. Imaging revealed a 13 x 11.8 x 8.6 cm, predominately cystic left pelvis mass, with multiple internal septations. Her past medical history was not contributory. Patient underwent left salpingo-oophorectomy (https://www.healthline.com/health/salpingo-oophorectomy), omentectomy (https://moffitt.org/cancers/ovarian-cancer/omentectomy/) and tumor debulking (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debulking) with intraoperative frozen section consultation.
GROSS EXAMINATION
The 930.9 g tubo-ovarian complex consisted of a 20.0 x 16.0 x 8.0 cm large mass, with no recognizable normal ovarian parenchyma grossly and an unremarkable fallopian tube. The cut surface was gray, "fish-flesh", soft with foci of hemorrhage and necrosis.
MICROSCOPIC EXAMINATION
Microscopically, the majority of main tumor was growing in large nests, sheets and cords with focal follicle-like structures and geographic areas of necrosis. It was predominantly composed of small cells with hyperchromatic nuclei, round to oval nucleus with irregular nuclear contour, inconspicuous to occasional conspicuous nucleoli and minimal cytoplasm. This component was variably admixed with a population of larger cells, which as the name implies composed of cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm, with central or eccentric round to oval nuclei, pale chromatin and prominent nuclei. Both, the small and large cell components demonstrated brisk mitotic activity. All staging biopsies and omentectomy were composed of large cell component.
An extensive panel of immunohistochemical stains was performed. Overall, the staining pattern was strong and diffuse in small cell component compared to patchy weak staining pattern in the large cell component.
FINAL DIAGNOSIS
Small cell carcinoma (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-cell_carcinoma) of the ovary, hypercalcemic type (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4939673/)
DISCUSSION
Small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT) is an aggressive and highly malignant tumor affecting the women under 40. It was first described as a distinct entity by Dickersin et al in 1982 (1). Fewer than 500 cases have been described in the literature and it accounts for less than 1% of all ovarian cancer diagnoses. Due to the initial consideration of epithelial origin, the term of SCCOHT has been used to distinguish this entity from its mimicker, the neuroendocrine or pulmonary type (2). In fact epithelial origin of SCCOHT was recently challenged as new imm.
Greek Drama Further Readings and Short Report GuidelinesOur s.docx
Greek Drama: Further Readings and Short Report Guidelines
Our study of Greek drama will begin with an overview of Greek theater in general and focus on Aeschylus’ Agamemnon (Norton rental text, Vol. A). You will be completing a quiz/worksheet on Agamemnon (open book) and that play will be the focus of our class from March 26 through April 2. After that, each of you will have the opportunity to focus more intensively on one of three other Greek plays, Sophocles’ Philoctetes, Euripides’ Medea, or Aristophanes’ Lysistrata.
I will be asking you to submit a short report that focuses primarily on the play you chose to study in more depth. Your first task, though, is to choose which of the three plays you want to work on. Here are brief overviews of the three plays.
Sophocles’ Philoctetes(available in the Sophocles II purchase text). Philoctetes, an outstanding Greek warrior, was abandoned by Odysseus, Agamemnon and Menelaos on the way to fight in Troy because they could not bear the agonies of his suffering from a poisonous snake bite. The hero, an exceptional archer who wields the bow of Heracles, has been living in isolation on the wild island of Lemnos for nine years. Now the Greek forces have received a prophecy that they cannot conquer Troy without Philoctetes’ help. Odysseus, whom Philoctetes hates, and Neoptolemus, the son of Achilles, are sent to lure Philoctetes back to the war, by persuasion, treachery or force.
Euripides’ Medea (available in Norton rental text, Vol. A. Medea, the sorceress who helped the hero Jason find the Golden Fleece and also helped save his life, is living with Jason in exile from her homeland with their two children. She has learned that, in order to advance his fortune and social standing, Jason wants to jilt Medea and marry a younger woman. Out of despair and rage, Medea contrives to take revenge against Jason in the most horrific way she can.
Aristophanes’ Lysistrata (available in Norton rental text, Vol. A). Fed up with the emotional and economic hardships caused by the Peloponnesian War (431-404 BC), the Athenian and Spartan women, under the leadership of Lysistrata, unite to undertake two group actions: first, to refuse to have sex with their men until the men agree to stop fighting and, second, to cut off funding for the war by occupying the Athenian treasury. Aristophanes’ comedy still raises questions today about who should wield political power and why, as well as about how much humans really value peace.
NOTE: While I am requiring you to focus on only one of the three plays, I strongly encourage you to read all three. I will be saying something about each of the three plays before the short report is due, after we spend some time with Aeschylus’ Agamemnon.
Guidelines for Short Report on Greek Drama
For the short report on Greek drama, please write complete, incisiveresponses to each of the following five topics or questions concerning the play—Philoctetes,Medea or Lysistrata—that you h.

Graphs (Help! Really challenging assignment. Would appreciate any bit of help!)
Family tree's and genealogy software has become more and more prevalent in recent years. From the name you might expect that a family tree would be easily represented by a tree structure, but that is not the case! A more appropriate data structure to represent a family tree would be a type of graph. Using the description of the family that accompanies this assignment, you must represent this family using a graph structure. The graph needs to be a weighted graph. The weights will constitute the types of relationships, I recommend using some kind mapping between numbers and strings to represent the relationships. When adding family members to the graph, this can be done programmatically for the provided family members within the description file. Additionally, I also want there to be an interface in which a user can create a new family member and add them to the tree. This can be a simple CLI where the user provides a name, gender, and age to create a person. Then another simple CLI where they select which member of the family they want the original relationship to be with and what kind of relationship it should be. Finally, they can edit the family member using another CLI and selecting the family member they wish to edit, the operation they wish to perform (edit name, edit age, edit relationship), and then add new relationship between family members which can call a function that you create in order to add the original relationship. Remember the DRY philosophy, where code can be modularized or made into a function, it should be if you plan on using the logic again.
Finally, I want you to make data assertions within the
FamilyTree
class that enforce certain "rules" that exist in a typical human family. An example would be a person should not have any kind of relationship to itself (a person can not marry themselves, a person can not be their own brother, sister, father, mother, etc.). There should be at least 3 data assertions. These should exists as part of the family tree, not as part of the graph.
As a hint, for a successful design: I would recommend using layers of abstraction. Your graph class is the backing structure to the family tree class. Your family tree should implement methods that interface with the graph class, i.e. add_family_member() should call the constructor to create a node and then call a function within the graph class to add a node to the graph. Then using the relationships function parameter, you can add edges to the graph between the new nodes and the existing nodes. The family tree should be what enforces what relationships can exist through the data assertions, the graph does not care about what relationships are made between family members. Your functions that the user would interface with would be greatly reduced compared to the total number of methods within the classes themselves. The user should be able to add, remove, and modi.

Grand Rounds Hi, and thanks for attending this case presen.docx
Grand Rounds
Hi, and thanks for attending this case presentation. My name is Dr. Stephen Brewer and I am a licensed
clinical psychologist in San Diego, California and Assistant Professor of Psychology and Applied
Behavioral Sciences at Ashford University. Today, I will be sharing with you the story of Bob.
Presenting problem
Bob Smith is a 36-year-old man who came to me approximately six months ago with concerns about his
career choice and life direction. He did not have any significant psychiatric symptoms, besides some
understandable existential anxiety regarding his future. Bob was cooperative, friendly, open, and
knowledgeable about psychology during our first few sessions together. I noticed that he seemed
guarded only when talking about his family and childhood experiences. To confirm his identity, I checked
his driver’s license to ensure his name was indeed Bob Smith and that he lived close by in a mobile home
in Spring Valley. Given his relatively mild symptoms, we decided to meet once a week for supportive
psychotherapy so he could work through his anxieties. I gave him a diagnosis of adjustment disorder
with anxiety.
History
Here’s some background on Bob to give you a sense of who he is.
Family
Bob grew up as an only child in Edmonton, Canada, in a low-income, conservative, and very religious
household.
He shared that his father was largely absent during his childhood, as he spent most of the week residing
north of Edmonton, where he worked as a mechanic in the oil fields near Fort McMurray. On weekends,
Bob’s father would return home and spend as much time as possible with his family. Bob described his
father as warm, caring, and a hard worker. His father reportedly died one year ago.
Bob’s mother was described as a strict, rule-based woman who had a short temper and was prone to
furious outbursts over trivial matters. She worked in Bob’s junior high as a janitor, which meant that Bob
often crossed paths with his mother at school, where she would often check up on him. During Bob’s
high school years, Bob’s mother got a new job as a high school librarian.
At 18, Bob moved to San Diego to study psychology at San Diego State University. He lived in the dorms
for his first few years, where he easily made friends and joined a fraternity. Bob maintained contact with
his parents, but ceased all contact when his mother suggested she would move to San Diego to be closer
to him. He graduated with a 3.2 GPA and began working for the county as a psychiatric technician. He
worked as a psych tech for 14 years and described it as “fun at first, but it got boring and predictable
after a while.”
Treatment
Bob shared that he has a medical doctor that he visits once every few years for his routine physical. He
denied having any significant medical problems. Additionally, he denied using any illicit substances and
reported drinking only on occasion with friends from his fratern.

George Using many lenses to assess cases George is brought to a com.docx
- 1. George: Using many lenses to assess cases George is brought to a community outpatient mental health clinic due to his parent’s observation that he is “not acting like a normal 13-year-old.” George’s parents report that he is failing school, has no peer group, and he is often angry at home, “lashing out at this younger brother and sister.” They brought him to the clinic because they think he is suffering from the same mental illness his mother has, and the last straw was that he was found with marijuana in his bedroom. The family reports a long and detailed family history of substance abuse. And, they report that George’s mother lives with debilitating symptoms of anxiety and intermittent depressive episodes. When you talk to George, he reports “My parents are exaggerating. I have friends. And, my little brother and sister are annoying, and are always bothering me and stealing my stuff. Besides I prefer hanging out by myself. Discussion: What are some of the “lenses” that social workers can view this case? ● Medical (Mental Health and Substance-Use) ● Family context ● School context ● Structural context ● What about the social context? ○ Does that matter? ○ How How might our treatment plans differ depending on which lens we use? How might our interventions choices differ? How can we maintain a focus on the social context when thinking about cases on all levels?
