Diversity and Multiculturalism in Health Care
Kimberly Crawford
Kaplan University
November 28, 2016
Diversity and multicultural perspectives are vital in the health education and public health fields in that it allows people to recognize interdependence and focus their ideas with a group other than their own. Additionally, it utilizes the patient's culture and language as tools to advance the results for that individual. According to the American Academy of Family Physician (2014), diversity and multiculturalism create a health care setting that appreciates diversity people feel welcome, appreciated, and allow medical professionals and organization to instil multiracial viewpoints into their strategy, plan and execute quality focused health initiative to all members of the community.
In general, embracing cultural diversity and multiple perspectives before starting an intervention program is vital to the provision and improvement of the overall quality of care delivery. It is, therefore, important to consider multiple perspectives before starting an intervention because diversity in the target audience and the program participants has ramifications regarding the things measured, the data collected as well as how the data is collected. For instance, before the program, one needs to consider factors such as nationality, race, and culture because, in some situations, race has been associated with some specific genetic diseases such as sickle cell anemia, and some lactose intolerance, which can influence the intervention outcomes (Issel, 2004). According to Issel, factors like physical characteristics of the population and community may affect the decisions during the planning and later during program evaluation. Furthermore, it is important to consider multiple perspectives before the program because program participants may bring their culture to the program in ways that may influence the intervention and its effectiveness.
Goal 1 could be applied to a diverse population; however, the goals need to be modified to be culturally inclusive. Different cultures have different foods and therefore to ensure that the participating population adheres to the program, the plan should state precisely the foods to be taken during the intervention to ensure successful outcomes. The second goal involves preventing obesity among children through childcare and schools. This goal can be implemented within a multicultural population however in needs some modification to get the best results. Different families have various methods of nurturing their children, and different meals could have an effect on the health of the child. As a result, the program needs to begin by educating families on some of the best ways to nurture their children especially the foods they feed their babies at an early stage. The ...

Professional Context
Health education
is any combination of learning experiences designed to help community individuals, families, and aggregates improve their health by increasing knowledge or influencing attitudes (WHO, 2018). Education is key to health promotion, disease prevention, and disaster preparedness. The health indicator framework identified in Healthy People 2020 helps motivate action in such areas as health service access, clinical preventive services, environmental quality, injury or violence, maternal, infant and child health, mental health, nutrition, substance abuse, and tobacco use.
Nurses provide accurate evidence-based information and education in various formal and informal settings. They draw upon evidence-based practice to provide health promotion and disease prevention activities to create social and physical environments conducive to improving and maintaining community health. When provided with the tools to be successful, people demonstrate lifestyle changes (self-care) that promote health and help reduce readmissions. They are better able to tolerate stressors, including environmental changes, and enjoy a better quality of life. In times of crisis, a resilient community is a safer community (ODPHP, n.d.; Flanders, 2018).
This assessment provides an opportunity for you to apply teaching and learning concepts to the presentation of a health promotion plan.

Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based pop.docx
Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based population health improvement plan. WITH SPEAKER NOTES
Introduction
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think critically about the evidence, outcomes data, and other relevant information they encounter throughout their daily practice. Often the evidence or information that a nurse encounters, researches, or studies is not presented in the exact context of that nurse's practice. A key skill of the master's-level nurse is to transfer evidence from the context in which it was presented and apply it to a different context in order to maximize the benefit to patients in that new context.
Professional Context
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think beyond the bedside. It is important to research, synthesize, and apply evidence that will result in improved health outcomes for the communities and populations that are part of your care setting. Improving outcomes at a community or population level, even incrementally, can create noticeably significant, aggregate health improvements for patients across all of a care setting.
Scenario
Your organization has created an initiative to improve one of the pervasive and chronic health concerns of OBESITY in the community. You will need to do your own research to gather and evaluate the relevant data for your chosen issue.
Once you have created a presentation for the initiative, you have been asked to present to a group of community stakeholders. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.

Identify the relevant data. This can be communicated in a table or chart.
Describe the major population health issue suggested by the data within your community.
Explain how environmental factors affect the health of community residents.
Identify the level of evidence, validity, and reliability for each source.
Develop an ethical health improvement plan with outcome criteria that addresses the population health issue that you identified in your evaluation.
Consider the environmental realities and challenges existing in the community.
Include interventions that will meet community needs.
Address potential barriers or misunderstandings related to various cultures prevalent.

Tiffani also recalls significant changes in the home's appearance. The home, which was never fancy,.
Theory applied to informatics – Novice to Expertcjni.netjou.docx
Theory applied to informatics – Novice to Expert
cjni.net/journal
Editorial – Fall 2010
by June Kaminski, RN MSN PhD(c), Editor in Chief
I am often amazed by the consistent confusion and silence that arises when I ask nurses what
nursing informatics related theories they use or are aware of. I can sense their minds
searching for mysterious elusive theories that they conclude that they must have missed. Only
a few realize that many theories that they are already familiar with have great applicability to
nursing informatics. One such theory is the time honoured Novice to Expert theory.
The Novice to Expert Theory, a construct theory first proposed by Hubert and Stuart Dreyfus
(1980) as the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition, and later applied and modified to nursing by
Patricia Benner (1984) provides a very useful and important theory that clearly applies to
nursing informatics. The Dreyfus brothers developed the model while working with scholars
interested in comparing artificial intelligence development and expert computer system
programming to the human mind and the development of expertise.
Within the field of nursing informatics, this theory can be applied to:
the development of nursing informatics skills, competencies, knowledge and expertise
in nursing informatics specialists;
the development of technological system competencies in practicing nurses working in
an institution;
the education of nursing students, from first year to graduation and;
the transition from graduate nurse to expert nurse.
The currently accepted five levels of development within the Novice to Expert theoretical
model are illustrated in the image above, as presented by Benner (1984). They start from the
1/4
http://cjni.net/journal/?p=967
bottom rung at the Novice level and move upward through Advanced Beginner, Competent,
Proficient, and Expert levels. Dreyfus and Dreyfus (1980) initially proposed the stages of:
Novice, Competent, Proficient, Expertise and Mastery. In both configurations, each level
builds on the level before it as the learner advances from a neophyte level then gains
knowledge, skills, perceptions, intuition, wisdom and most important of all, experience in their

Both Dreyfus and Dreyfus and Benner estimated that it takes approximately five years to move
through the five stages from novice to expert but also elaborated that not all novices become
experts. Some people get ‘stuck’ at the competent or proficient stages. Two personal
characteristics that distinguish the successful evolution to the expert level seem to be
a) deliberate practice and
b) the willingness to take risks, to go beyond the ‘norm’.
Deliberate practice is a trait shown by people who use a personal, goal-oriented approach to
skill and knowledge development – they devote themselves to engage in progressively higher,
and ultimately expert performance. This requires years of sustained effort to continually
improve the quali.

Health education
is any combination of learning experiences designed to help community individuals, families, and aggregates improve their health by increasing knowledge or influencing attitudes (WHO, 2018). Education is key to health promotion, disease prevention, and disaster preparedness. The health indicator framework identified in Healthy People 2020 helps motivate action in such areas as health service access, clinical preventive services, environmental quality, injury or violence, maternal, infant and child health, mental health, nutrition, substance abuse, and tobacco use.
Nurses provide accurate evidence-based information and education in various formal and informal settings. They draw upon evidence-based practice to provide health promotion and disease prevention activities to create social and physical environments conducive to improving and maintaining community health. When provided with the tools to be successful, people demonstrate lifestyle changes (self-care) that promote health and help reduce readmissions. They are better able to tolerate stressors, including environmental changes, and enjoy a better quality of life. In times of crisis, a resilient community is a safer community (ODPHP, n.d.; Flanders, 2018).

Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based population health improvement plan. WITH SPEAKER NOTES
Introduction
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think critically about the evidence, outcomes data, and other relevant information they encounter throughout their daily practice. Often the evidence or information that a nurse encounters, researches, or studies is not presented in the exact context of that nurse's practice. A key skill of the master's-level nurse is to transfer evidence from the context in which it was presented and apply it to a different context in order to maximize the benefit to patients in that new context.
Professional Context
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think beyond the bedside. It is important to research, synthesize, and apply evidence that will result in improved health outcomes for the communities and populations that are part of your care setting. Improving outcomes at a community or population level, even incrementally, can create noticeably significant, aggregate health improvements for patients across all of a care setting.
Scenario
Your organization has created an initiative to improve one of the pervasive and chronic health concerns of OBESITY in the community. You will need to do your own research to gather and evaluate the relevant data for your chosen issue.
Once you have created a presentation for the initiative, you have been asked to present to a group of community stakeholders. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.

Theory Into Practice: Four Social Work Case Studies
In this course, you select one of the following four case studies and use it throughout the entire course. By doing this, you will have the opportunity to see how different theories guide your view of a client and that client’s presenting problem. Each time you return to the same case, you use a different theory, and your perspective of the problem changes—which then changes how you ask assessment questions and how you intervene.
These case studies are based on the video- and web-based case studies you encounter in the MSW program.

Tiffani Bradley
Identifying Data: Tiffani Bradley is a 16-year-old Caucasian female. She was raised in a Christian family in Philadelphia, PA. She is of German descent. Tiffani’s family consists of her father, Robert, 38 years old; her mother, Shondra, 33 years old, and her sister, Diana, 13 years old. Tiffani currently resides in a group home, Teens First, a brand new, court-mandated teen counseling program for adolescent victims of sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Tiffani has been provided room and board in the residential treatment facility for the past 3 months. Tiffani describes herself as heterosexual.
Presenting Problem: Tiffani has a history of running away. She has been arrested on three occasions for prostitution in the last 2 years. Tiffani has recently been court ordered to reside in a group home with counseling. She has a continued desire to be reunited with her pimp, Donald. After 3 months at Teens First, Tiffani said that she had a strong desire to see her sister and her mother. She had not seen either of them in over 2 years and missed them very much. Tiffani is confused about the path to follow. She is not sure if she wants to return to her family and sibling or go back to Donald.
Family Dynamics: Tiffani indicates that her family worked well together until 8 years ago. She reports that around the age of 8, she remembered being awakened by music and laughter in the early hours of the morning. When she went downstairs to investigate, she saw her parents and her Uncle Nate passing a pipe back and forth between them. She remembered asking them what they were doing and her mother saying, “adult things” and putting her back in bed. Tiffani remembers this happening on several occasions. Tiffani also recalls significant changes in the home's appearance. The home, which was never fancy,.
Theory applied to informatics – Novice to Expertcjni.netjou.docx
Theory applied to informatics – Novice to Expert
cjni.net/journal
Editorial – Fall 2010
by June Kaminski, RN MSN PhD(c), Editor in Chief
I am often amazed by the consistent confusion and silence that arises when I ask nurses what
nursing informatics related theories they use or are aware of. I can sense their minds
searching for mysterious elusive theories that they conclude that they must have missed. Only
a few realize that many theories that they are already familiar with have great applicability to
nursing informatics. One such theory is the time honoured Novice to Expert theory.
The Novice to Expert Theory, a construct theory first proposed by Hubert and Stuart Dreyfus
(1980) as the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition, and later applied and modified to nursing by
Patricia Benner (1984) provides a very useful and important theory that clearly applies to
nursing informatics. The Dreyfus brothers developed the model while working with scholars
interested in comparing artificial intelligence development and expert computer system
programming to the human mind and the development of expertise.
Within the field of nursing informatics, this theory can be applied to:
the development of nursing informatics skills, competencies, knowledge and expertise
in nursing informatics specialists;
the development of technological system competencies in practicing nurses working in
an institution;
the education of nursing students, from first year to graduation and;
the transition from graduate nurse to expert nurse.
The currently accepted five levels of development within the Novice to Expert theoretical
model are illustrated in the image above, as presented by Benner (1984). They start from the
1/4
http://cjni.net/journal/?p=967
bottom rung at the Novice level and move upward through Advanced Beginner, Competent,
Proficient, and Expert levels. Dreyfus and Dreyfus (1980) initially proposed the stages of:
Novice, Competent, Proficient, Expertise and Mastery. In both configurations, each level
builds on the level before it as the learner advances from a neophyte level then gains
knowledge, skills, perceptions, intuition, wisdom and most important of all, experience in their
given field of practice.
Distinguishing Traits
Both Dreyfus and Dreyfus and Benner estimated that it takes approximately five years to move
through the five stages from novice to expert but also elaborated that not all novices become
experts. Some people get ‘stuck’ at the competent or proficient stages. Two personal
characteristics that distinguish the successful evolution to the expert level seem to be
a) deliberate practice and
b) the willingness to take risks, to go beyond the ‘norm’.
Deliberate practice is a trait shown by people who use a personal, goal-oriented approach to
skill and knowledge development – they devote themselves to engage in progressively higher,
and ultimately expert performance. This requires years of sustained effort to continually
improve the quali.

Trait Theory- how tall someone is, hair, smile, charm. Except for women. Traits theory seems to be gendered.
Behavioral Theory-organization skills, collaboration skills, better public speaker, all behaviors which should make for excellent leadership skills.
Power and Influence Theory-Machiavelli. Who has power in what settings? Tsun Tsu. Choosing the time and place of battle. Operation and influence.
Contingency Theory-matching your behavior to the settings. Be aware of the social context.
Cognitive Theory-what really matters is the decisions made and why they were made?
Satisficing Theory- choosing the solution that’s not necessarily the best solution, but its’ the solution that appeasing everyone. Unconscious bias. The discussion regarding unconscious bias’ who is hired in leadership. Groupthink-members of the organization feel as if they can’t adequately critique the leader. People are fearful and therefore, they can’t speak their minds.
Truth to power Theory-it’s so much harder for people to tell their truth TO POWER(ful) individuals.
Leaders don’t actually make decisions according to data…
Cultures and Symbols-Individuals who control culture and symbols.
Positivistic-leadership is known, and we can clearly identify power. Philosophical term
Social Constructivist-knowledge through interactions with others. It’s true because we say it’s true.
Critical-Leaderships role is to critique the social order and how it could be an advantage. Service of one groups but not others.
Post Modern-create a situation where everyone has a voice. Non-hierarchical.
Leadership as Servant-greater service to society. Responding to “a calling to service.” Why you go about what you do. Motivational intent of the individual.
Establish power based on time served. Legitimacy based on service.
Leading out of serving. Becoming a leader by “doing good” in the community.
Massive Critique-Evidence of leadership that leadership matters is undetermined. Is there a better approach to leadership? The question has yet to be answered. Overattribute accomplishments and underattribute failures.
Great leaders manage their emotions.

Prompted by perceived shortcomings of prevailing conceptualizations of digital technology in IS, we propose
a theory aimed at capturing both the ontological complexity of digital objects qua objects, and how their iden-
tity and use is bound up with various social associations. We begin with what it is to be an object, the dif-
ferences between material and nonmaterial objects, and various categories of nonmaterial objects including
syntactic objects and bitstrings. Building on these categories we develop a conception of digital objects and
a novel “bearer” theory of how material and nonmaterial objects combine. The role of computation is con-
sidered, and how the identity and system functions of digital objects flow from their social positioning in the
communities in which they arise. Various implications of the theory are identified, focusing on its use as a
conceptual frame through which to view digital phenomena, and its potential to inform existing perspectives
with regard both to how digital technology per se and the relationship between people and digital technology
should be theorized. These implications are illustrated with reference to secondary markets for software, the
treatment of digital resources in the resource-based, knowledge-based, and service-dominant logic views of
organizing, and recent work on sociomateriality.
Keywords: Nonmaterial objects, digital objects, bitstrings, digital technology, social positions, resources,
resource-based view, service-dominant logic, sociomateriality, imbrication
Introduction 1
One of the striking features of the digital revolution has been
the proliferation of what we will call digital objects, many of
which have transformed and become indispensable parts of
organizational life. Digital objects feature prominently in IS
research and include computer systems and peripherals (Hib-
beln et al. 2017; Xu et al. 2017), smart devices (Prasopoulou
2017; Yoo 2010), mobile apps (Boudreau 2012; Claussen et
al. 2013; Hoehle and Venkatesh 2015), emails (Barley et al.
2011; Wang et al. 2016), blogs (Aggarwal et al. 2012; Chau
and Xu 2012; Luo et al. 2017), electronic health records
(Kohli and Tan 2016), online videos (Kallinikos and Mariá-
tegui, 2011; Susarla et al. 2012), 3D printers (Kyriakou et al.
2017), and enterprise systems (Strong and Volkoff 2010;
Sykes 2015).
Illuminating as these and similar studies invariably are,
however, their principal focus is on the human and organi-
zational implications of the technology in question rather than
on the devices themselves. The result is that research of this
kind tends to invoke “pretheoretical understandings” (Ekbia
2009, p. 2555) o.

A Concept Analysis of Digital Citizenship
for Democratic Citizenship Education in the
Internet Age
Moonsun Choi
The Ohio State University
Abstract: Despite the importance of promoting socially responsible citizenship in the
Internet age, there is a paucity of research on how digital citizenship or digital citizens
might be defined and/or investigated. This study found 4 major categories that construct
digital citizenship: Ethics, Media and Information Literacy, Participation/Engagement,
and Critical Resistance. Based on these comprehensive and interconnected categories of
digital citizenship, the author argues that digital citizenship needs to be understood as a
multidimensional and complex concept in connection with an interrelated but non-linear
relationship with offline (place-based) civic lives.
Keywords: concept analysis, critical resistance, digital citizenship, digital ethics, media
and information literacy, participation/engagement
I imagine one could say: “Why don’t you leave me alone?! I want no
part of your Internet, of your technological civilization, of your network
society! I just want to live my life!” Well, if this is your position, I have
bad news for you. If you do not care about the networks, the networks
will care about you, anyway. For as long as you want to live in society, at
this time and in this place, you will have to deal with the network society.
Because we live in the Internet Galaxy. (Castells, 2001, p. 282)

As Castells (2001) argued in his book, The Internet Galaxy, it is impossi-
ble to deny that we are living in a digitalized and networked society, even if
we fear and escape the often-negative influences of the Internet. For instance,
Internet trolls sometimes infiltrate online communities and then use their posts
to disrupt and ultimately destroy not only the community, but also specific
members (e.g., some subreddit communities). Digital warriors use the Internet
to influence and potentially recruit vulnerable users into extreme causes (e.g.,
the recruitment of adolescents by the Islamic State).
Web-based activities have affected the ways humans think, the ways they
communicate with others, and the way they generally participate in society
(DiMaggio, Hargittai, Neuman, & Robinson, 2001; Dutton, 2005; Glassman,
2012a; Palfrey & Gasser, 2013). Put another way, emerging digital media and
web-based networking environments allow people to adopt new perspectives
toward the self, t.

Theories explain phenomena and predict how the phenomena will behave under specific conditions. Usefulness of theories depends on how well the theory explains what is going on and predicts what will happen under certain conditions.
Describe at least
two individual theories and two structural theories that explain the causes (risks) of poverty.
Describe t

Theories help frame more than presenting problems—they also frame so.docx
Theories help frame more than presenting problems—they also frame social problems, and both types of problems can be linked in relation to client issues. For example, many scholars and social workers have attempted to understand the social problem of poverty. Turner and Lehning (2007) classified various psychological theories to explain poverty under two headings: (1) individual-related theories or (2) structural/cultural-related theories. In other words, think of these two headings as lenses in viewing poverty. In this Discussion, you apply lenses through which to understand a client's problem in relation to social problems.

Theories of Leadership
Many schools of thought have developed throughout history that propose various theories about the source and development of leaders, how leaders are discovered, and how they can be identified. Early leadership theories focused on the qualities that distinguished leaders from followers; subsequent theories looked at other variables such as situational factors and skill levels. Evaluate the similarities and differences between two approaches or theories of leadership: the trait approach and behavioral theory; the Situational Leadership® Model and authentic leadership theory; or the transformational and transactional leadership theories. Begin by providing a brief summary of the two approaches or theories of leadership you have chosen to analyze. Then, examine the common characteristics and differences between the two approaches or theories you selected. Use a minimum of two scholarly sources to support your post. Cite your sources according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

THEORIES OF INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENTPiaget’s TheoryWe begin wi.docx
THEORIES OF INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT
Piaget’s Theory
We begin with the theory of the famous Swiss psychologist, Jean Piaget (Gruber & Voneche, 1995). Piaget disagreed with the behaviorist notion that children come into this world as “blank slates” who simply receive and store information about the world from other people (Driver, Asoko, Leach, Mortimer & Scott, 1994). Instead, Piaget argued that, at all ages, humans actively interact with their world, and through those interactions try to interpret and understand it in terms of what they already know. He also thought that humans change the ways in which they interact with and interpret the world as they grow older and more experienced. What is important for teachers to understand is (1) how children are likely to interact with and interpret the world at particular ages and (2) what factors lead children to move from less sophisticated to more sophisticated forms of interaction and interpretation.
In describing how children interact with and interpret the world, Piaget proposed four stages of intellectual development. He believed that these stages were universal, that is, that children everywhere, regardless of culture or experience passed through the same stages. He also believed that children progressed through the stages in an invariant order, that is, all children move from simpler, less adequate ways of thinking to increasingly more complex, sophisticated ways of thinking. Piaget did allow that some children might develop faster than others and that some might never achieve the highest stage(s) of thinking.
Piaget’s claims about stages of intellectual development have faced many criticisms, as you have no doubt read in your human development text. For example, it has been suggested that development is much more gradual and piecemeal than implied by the notion of a stage (Santrock, 2008, 2009). Nevertheless, these stages still provide a useful framework for teachers. In particular, Piaget’s stages provide clues about how students will interpret and approach many of the problems that you pose, as well as clues about the types of problems and experiences that are most likely to engage students and be beneficial for them (Elliott, Kratochwill, Littlefield & Travers, 2000; Feinburg & Mindess, 1994; Santrock, 2008).
The four stages that Piaget proposed are described briefly below. Please note that the age ranges listed are only approximations.
Sensorimotor period. This stage characterizes the thinking of children up until the age of 2 years. During this stage, infants and toddlers learn about the world by acting on it directly through motoric and sensory activities, such as sucking, grasping, and looking. In this way, they gradually learn about the physical properties of objects and develop rudimentary understanding of space, time, and causality.
Preoperational period. This stage characterizes the thinking of children between the ages of 2 and 6 years. Preoperational chil.

From the sections of our course textbook on communication theories, you will choose
three sections
to base your three Theoretical Review papers on. For the Theoretical Review Paper_1, you will work with the first section of the course textbook --
The Self and Messages
. This section is assigned to you to get us started with the writing assignments, however, going forward in the course you will be able to choose the section you want to focus on for each Theoretical Review Paper. The sections you can choose from are below and they align with the sections of the course textbook.
The sections on communication theories are:
The Self and Messages (Chapters 4, 5, 6, 7)
Relationship Development (Chapters 8, 9, 10, 11)
Groups and Organizations (Chapters 14, 17)
Culture and Diversity (Chapters 27, 28)
Public and Media (Chapters 18, 21, 25, 26)
2. Select a Theory from each section
From each section, you will select a theory you will research and write about in your Theoretical Reveiw Paper. For the first Theoretical Review Paper you will select theory/theories from (1) The Self and Messages (Chapters 4, 5, 6, 7); choose one theory to research.
With that theory, you should research how the theory applies to some aspect of communication of interest to you.
For example, here are some topics
(sections of the text, theories, communication aspect)
that other students have previously chosen:
The Self and Messages

To Treat a Psychopath
Heidi L. Maibom
Recent successes in manipulating the activity of the brain more or less directly—e.g. through transcranial magnetic stimulation or the administration of drugs that inhibit the production or reuptake of certain neurotransmitters—promise that one day soon it may be possible to treat a range of hitherto treatment resistant disorders [1-4]. Conventional treatment is typically unsuccessful with psychopaths [5-6]. Some people, however, are now quite optimistic about the possibility of treating psychopathy with drugs that directly modulate brain function [2]. Does the recent evidence support the idea that we will soon be able to treat psychopathy? I shall argue that it does not. Psychopathy is a global disorder in an individual’s worldview, including his social and moral outlook. Because of the unity of this Weltanschauung, it is unlikely to be treatable in a piecemeal fashion. But recent neuroscientific methods do not give us much hope that we can replace, in a wholesale manner, problematic views of the world with more socially desirable ones. There are, therefore, principled reasons that psychopathy is so singularly treatment resistant.
1. The Trouble with Psychopaths
By contrast to depression, which can often be treated by the administration of mood-enhancing drugs (SSRIs or SNRIs)[footnoteRef:1] and/or psychotherapy, psychopathy is a disorder involving a wide variety of symptoms that, on the face of it, have little in common except for their moral and social undesirability. Depressive symptoms typically form a unified picture of a certain type of affective disorder. Psychopathy has been called a moral or an antisocial disorder [7, 8]. Where it seems relatively obvious, at least in theory, that to treat depression one must help elevate the subject’s mood and alleviate her despair, how to treat amoral or antisocial tendencies is less clear. And since we have experience of ingesting substances that are mood-elevators, at least in the short term, such as champagne or chocolate, it is not too far-fetched to suppose that other substances may produce a longer-term effect on a person’s mood. But what of amorality or antisociality? [1: Serotonin reuptake inhibitors and serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors.]
On closer inspection, depression and psychopathy have more in common than it might seem at first. The two disorders represent more global divergences of cognitive and emotional functioning compared to the statistical norm. Depressed individuals tend to have a rather dark view of themselves and existence in general, associated with social withdrawal and lack of interest in activities, even those that were previously of great importance to them. Georg Northoff has suggested that depressed individuals may experience difficulties projecting themselves into the future or, if you like, imagining a future different from their current reality.[footnoteRef:2.

A Palliative Nurse Practitioner (PNPR) is an advanced practice registered nurse. PNPR is trained to assess patient needs, diagnose disease, interpret diagnostic results and provide palliative medicine to treat illness with complex pain and symptoms. Additionally, PNPR will anticipate and meet the needs of the patient and family facing terminal illness and bereavement (Forchuk, 2015).

PEPLAU’S THEORY INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
Three phases: orientation, working and termination phases
Establish therapeutic relationship to provide better patient care.
A guide for resolution of the issues and concerns
Peplau’s Theory Views a Palliative Nursing Practitioner as a professional that establishes therapeutic relationship with patients. Peplau’s theory consist in 3 phases which are orientation, working and termination stages. During the orientation phase, the patient, family and nurse work together to recognize, clarify, and define existing problem. The working phase includes deliver and application of interventions, and services of care to treat, explore and change a situation. Finally, the termination phase includes resolution and successful completion of all the other two stages on finalization of care (Townsend, 2015).
This theory is significant in palliative care because it will allow me to determine the needs of my patients and their families through the use of the orientation, working concepts. In doing so, I can serve as a resource person, a counselor and surrogate. In addition, I can provide individualized care that will meet the needs of my patients and their families. But most importantly, this theory is significant to palliative care because it will help me to transition patients and their families through end of life care by applying the concepts of the termination phase (Townsend, 2015 p. 40) , (Forchuk, 2015).

Theoretical PerspectivesSince Childrens Literature is written f.docx
Theoretical Perspectives
Since Children's Literature is written for the child audience, authors and illustrators need to understand how children develop emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. Authors and illustrators must cater to children through their use of ideas, language, images, and style. They must also understand how children learn in order to know how to integrate ideas with language, images and style for the child mind. In this section of our course, you will learn about three child development theories, including Piaget's theory on how children develop cognitively, Kohlberg's theory on how children learn moral reasoning, and Erikson's stages on how a child develops psychologically. You will also learn about two educational theories in children's literature, including Vygotsky's Social Development Theory and Rosenblatt's Reader's Response/Transaction Theory. Having an understanding of how children develop and learn will help you critique the many types of children's literature you will analyze in this course.
Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development
View the short film clip titled "Piaget's Stages of Cognitive Development" published by Khan Academy to gain perspective on Piaget's theoretical stages. Keep in mind that Piaget believed that knowledge is constructed--children's learning builds on what is already known. Use the following outline as a guide. What examples can you use to illustrate each stage?
Stage 1: 0-2 Years of age--Sensorimotor Stage
Children gather information about the world through their senses and their movement.

Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development (An expansion on Piaget’s Theory)
View the short video titled “Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development Explained!” published by Learn My Test. Examine each level and stage carefully, and then consider the 3 main criticisms of Kohlberg's theory:
Level 1: Pre-conventional Morality--at this level, children tend to obey rules to avoid punishment. They also make choices based on self-need.
Level 2: Conventional Morality--at this level, children tend to conform to societal expectations. They typically respect and abide by rules.
Level 3: Post-conventional Morality--at this level, children recognize that members of society should agree to standards that set rules; they view justice as more important than laws.
Consider:
Why is Kohlberg's theory on moral development important for authors to be aware of as they write literature for children?
What are the 3 main criticisms of Kohlberg's theory? Are these criticisms justifiable? Why or why not?

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
