How often do you hear people say things like, “Everything
about psychology is biology and genes,” or “Everything about
psychology is about your thinking and beliefs,” or “Everything
about psychology is your environment and upbringing.”
All of these factors influence our psychology and mental health
to some degree.
Biological factors: Genes, Health and illness, Exercise, Diet,
Medication and drugs and Sleep
Psychological factors: Beliefs, Emotions, Habits, Knowledge,
Memories, Stress, and Perspective
Social factors: Family, Relationships, Culture, Society &
Politics, Education, Media and Environment
Socio-cultural lens – up to 15 points possible
Clear definition of lens (role of social/group membership in
context of environment;
How social systems shape, guide, and direct people’s values and
beliefs; how do people as agents shape social systems; focus on
social equality)
Theory or theories are selected that are appropriate to the lens
The theory and lens are thoroughly and appropriately applied to
both family member
SOCIOCULTURAL LENS
Looks at the important contributions that society makes to
individual development.
Focuses not only how adults and peers influence individual
learning, but also on how cultural beliefs and attitudes impact
how instruction and learning take place.

4. Children are born with basic biological constraints on their
minds. Each culture, however, provides what he referred to as
'tools of intellectual adaptation.' These tools allow children to
use their basic mental abilities in a way that is adaptive to the
culture in which they live.
For example, while one culture might emphasize memorization
strategies such as note-taking, other cultures might utilize tools
like reminders or memorization.

of individuals taking collective action]
Theory or theories are selected that are appropriate to the lens
The theory and lens are thoroughly and appropriately applied to
both family members
Social-change lens
How individuals relate to various groups and institutions in
society–and how groups and institutions relate to individuals, or
classes of individuals.
Our mission to assist not only the client system, but all others
who might be similarly affected is one of the things that
separates social work from the other helping professions.
Allows us to:
See the impact of "isms" such as racism, sexism, and ageism on
the ability of people to reach goals;

5. Look at such bonds of affinity as church or other group
memberships as sources of strength and social support;
See clients both as individuals and as likely representatives of
others with the same problem.

1 reference can include the Rogers text.

Outline
I. Introduction
In this section, introduce the two members of the
family you will review
Provide a brief case description of each member of
the Sanchez family you are
reviewing
Describe briefly what you will do in your paper.
II. Person in Environment
In opening paragraphs, define the lens.
Subheading: Person #1 – Apply the lens to
this case
Subheading Person #2 – Apply the lens to
this case
III. Biopsychosocial
In opening paragraphs, define the lens. Be sure to
include relevant theories. Apply one
theory to each individual. It can be the same to

7. both,or two theories.
Subheading: Person #1 – Apply the lens to
this case
Subheading Person #2 – Apply the lens to
this case
IV. Sociocultural
In opening paragraphs, define the lens. Be
sure to include relevant theories. Apply one
theory to each individual. It can be the same to
both,or two theories.
Option A:
Subheading: Person #1 – Apply the lens to
this case
Subheading Person #2 – Apply the lens to
this case
OR Option B:
Since thesetwo family members may have the same
sociocultural background, you may
writeabout them together.
V. Social Change
In opening paragraphs, define the lens. Be
sure to include relevant theories. Apply one
theory to each individual. It can be the same to
both,or two theories.

Subheading: Person #1 – Apply the lens to
this case
Subheading Person #2 – Apply the lens to

8. this case
OR Option B:
Since thesetwo family members may be affected by
the same macro-level issues
(oppression, etc), you may writeabout them together.

sanchez family case

Case Analysis Paper: Using the Sanchez case, the textbooks,
and five current scholarly, empirical references, you will
discuss/analyze/assess the development of two family members
(not Joey and Vicky) presented in the case scenario. You should
use the discussions/case analysis in your asynchronous work in
all previous weeks to help you. 18 In this paper, you will
explore and apply all lenses discussed thus far (person-in-
environment, biopsychosocial, sociocultural, and social
change). You should discuss two family members from the
person-in-environment perspective, one applicable theory from
the biopsychosocial lens, one applicable theory from the
sociocultural lens, and one applicable theory from the social
change lens.
Here is a list you will find helpful: 1. Person-in-environment
