• In at least 500 words Choose one 19th century thinker or a 19th century event and explain, how you see its continuing relevance.
• Many 19th century writers developed ideas that still influence us today.  For example, in November, 2018 ,one of the worst factory accidents in history happened in a chemical plant in China. At least 23 people were killed; harsh evidence that workers in China’s vast industrial sector are still prey to great dangers, even in relatively new plants.
• 19th Century German philosopher, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary Karl Marx might have predicted this would happen.
• In addition, many of the events of the 19th century, like the Civil War or the development of photography still have an impact on our lives today.

 Case Studies in Assessment

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the assigned chapters from the text. It is highly recommended that you review the brief Alzheimer’s Association, Florida Links to an external site. (2018) video demonstrating the administration of a mental status examination. This video is linked above and is also listed in the recommended resources. Although not required, this video shows the administration of a mental status exam and may prove helpful in this discussion.

Access the Barnhill (2014) DSM-5 Clinical Cases e-book in the DSM-5 library and select one of the case studies. The case study you select must be one in which the client could be assessed using one or more of the assessment instruments discussed in this week’s reading on testing special populations and neuropsychological testing.

For this discussion, you will take on the role of a psychology intern at a mental health facility working under the supervision of a licensed psychologist. In this role, you will conduct a psychological evaluation of a client referred to you for a second opinion using valid psychological tests and assessment procedures. The case study you select from the textbook will serve as the information provided to you from the professional who previously evaluated the client (e.g., the psychologist or psychiatrist).

In your initial post, begin with a paragraph briefly summarizing the main information about the case you selected. Evaluate and describe the ethical and professional interpretation of any assessment information presented in the case study. Devise an assessment battery for a psychological evaluation that minimally includes a clinical interview, mental status exam, intelligence test, observations of the client, and at least two psychological tests specific to the diagnostic impressions (e.g., attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, autism spectrum disorder, etc.). The assessment plan must be presented as a list of recommended psychological tests and assessment procedures with a brief sentence explaining the purpose of each test or procedure. Following the list of tests and assessment procedures you recommend for your client, compare the assessment instruments that fall within the same categories (e.g., intelligence test or achievement test), and debate the pros and cons of the tests and procedures you selected versus the test and procedures reported by the referring professional. If no psychological tests or specific assessment procedures are mentioned in the case study, minimally assume a diagnostic interview was conducted and debate the pros and cons of the tests and procedures you selected versus making a diagnosis based only on a diagnostic interview.

Note: It is common for there to be a delay between the time a test publisher updates a test and the time the textbook and other authors can update their information about the new version of the test. Be sure to do online research to make sure you are recommending the most current version of the test. If there is a newer version than the version discussed in the textbook or other readings, recommend the newest version.

Each paper must be 6-7 pages long, double-spaced in 12 font, Times New Roman, not including a bibliography or title page (should you select to have one).  Each paper must be written in complete sentences and paragraphs (a paper of this length requires more than one paragraph).  Each paper is graded according to the same rubric posted in UMLearn under the Assessment tab, sub-tab Rubrics, titled “Papers 1 and 2 Rubric.”

For each paper, there is a list of topics of which you select ONE to write about.  These topics relate to our course materials, so they should be somewhat familiar to you.  In addition to using our textbook as a source, you must also have three additional academic sources used for each paper.  While you may also use our unit notes, these are only to support your three academic sources.  

In all instances, you MUST cite your work.  This means that any time you reference ideas from another source, be it our textbook, unit notes, or other academic sources, you must cite them using MLA or Chicago formatting.  Links to how to cite in MLA or Chicago are provided in your syllabus, the Start Here!
