Writing Assignment
Instructions
People often say that in America if you work hard then you will make it. As sociologists, we know that some of the hardest working people have a very difficult time just making their ends meet every day and certainly are not “making it” in terms of success often portrayed in popular culture. Please review this table of wealth distribution in America.
Write a short (1-page) essay, describing the table and the actual wealth distribution in America.
Describe the discrepancies between what people say that the wealth distribution looks like, what they think (their perceptions of) the wealth distribution should look like, and then what it actually is.
Please use the information from the table to either refute or support the idea that hard work pays off for all people in America (society as a meritocracy).
Be sure to take into account various types of inequalities (e.g., race, gender) in your answer.
Do not use outside sources, but apply your own sociological imagination using your own words.

What effect might misdiagnosis have on children lives?

Diagnosing Young Children
0 unread of 0 messages
View Full Description
As you have learned this week, diagnosing psychiatric disorders in children is a tricky business. Mental health professionals must consider many factors when diagnosing, not the least of which is what might happen if a child were to be misdiagnosed.
1. What effect might misdiagnosis have on children lives?
One recent hot controversy in the field of child psychiatry/psychology is over the prevalence of Bipolar disorder in young children and teens. Trust me when I tell you that there are competent professionals on both side of the fence who feel very strongly about this issue.
Please click on the link below and carefully read the articles:
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/09/28/60minutes/main3308525.shtml
Obviously, something went wrong with the treatment of Rebecca Riley. Rather than focusing on this specific case, however, I’d like for us to discuss the larger issue related to the benefits and risks of diagnosing and treating young children with psychiatric disorders (e.g., ADHD, Conduct Disorder, Bipolar, Depression, etc…). Try to argue on both the “pro” and the “con” side.
2. Why should or should not we diagnose young children?
3. What age is “too young” to diagnose, or is there no age limit?
4. What are the cons of giving diagnoses too young to children?
5. What are the pros and cons of using psychiatric medication with young children?
Support your opinions with research, not just on “word of mouth” or personal experience.

LESSON READING
Introduction
In this lesson, we will look at how the great variations in children’s behaviors evolve. We will achieve this by looking at how morality develops, and the behavioral, cognitive and emotional aspects of morality. We will explore how prosocial and altruistic behaviors develop, and then how aggression develops in children, and how to alleviate it. Thereafter we will investigate developmental psychopathology. We will look at the three major categories of childhood disorders: undercontrolled disorders, overcontrolled disorders and pervasive developmental disorders.
Morality
Why do some children bully, lie and cheat, while others withdraw, and yet others excel and thrive? To understand why there is such a great variation in children’s behavior, we need to look at how children are socialized. Recall that the role of socialization is to impart desirable values onto children, which they internalize, so they can experience satisfaction when they abide by social rules, and discomfort when they do not. This personal standard of conduct can be referred to as morality.
Morality has three components that help us understand how aggression and altruism develop. The cognitive component of morality is the knowledge of what is good and bad, the emotional component is how individuals feel about situations and decisions they make, and the behavioral component of morality is how individuals behave.
Cognitive Aspects of Moral Development
Piaget and Kohlberg saw moral reasoning as a function of cognitive development.
Piaget (1932) proposed that children pass through three stage of moral development.
PREMORAL 
MORAL REALISM
MORAL RECIPROCITY
Kohlberg (1969, 1985) refined and expanded on Piaget’s theory, proposing that people go through six stages of moral development.
PRECONVENTIONAL MORALITY, STAGE 1
PRECONVENTIONAL MORALITY, STAGE 2
CONVENTIONAL MORALITY, STAGE 3
CONVENTIONAL MORALITY, STAGE 4
POSTCONVENTIONAL MORALITY, STAGE 5
POSTCONVENTIONAL MORALITY, STAGE 6
Check out this video on Kohlberg’s famous moral dilemma:
Now watch this video to see how different aged children reason:
Social Conventions
Social conventions include rules of etiquette such as table manners, forms of greeting and address, and dress codes. Studies have found that from a young age – around three years old – children can differentiate between morality and social conventions (Turiel, 2006). Cross-cultural studies have shown that from the age of three, children consistently see moral violations as harming others, and social convention violations as disruptive or impolite; furthermore, social conventions are seen as relative while moral rules do not change across cultures (Helwig, 2006; Turiel, 2006; Wainryb, 2006).
Interestingly, teenagers generally agree that parents may regulate their moral behavior, but not social convention issues, such as their spending habits, dress code and friends (Smetana, 1995, 2005).
Behavioral Aspects of Moral Development
· MORAL JUDGEMENT AND BEHAVIOR
· SELF-REGULATION
· MORAL SELF
· DISCIPLINE TECHNIQUES
A child’s moral judgement is not always consistent with their moral behavior because behavior can be irrational and impulsive. As age increases, moral judgement and moral behavior becomes more consistent. Parents and other socializing agents can enhance children’s moral behavior by using democratic reasoning and explanation as a form of discipline, as well as discussions about people’s feelings (Hoffman, 2000; Parke, 1977; Walker, Hennig, & Krettenauer, 2000).
Emotional Aspects of Morality
When people believe that they have violated a moral code, they generally feel shame, guilt and remorse. Research has shown that females feel more guilt than males, which may be attributable to gender stereotypes in which females are expected to be more dependent, submissive and prosocial (Zahn-Waxler, 2000). Children who feel more guilt and shame also experience more fear and are inhibited. Children who do not experience guilt and shame are fearless and are not deterred from violating rules.

functions of lymph nodes

Ch 3 Quiz

1. All of the following, except one, are functions of lymph nodes. Which is NOT?
A. Lymph nodes act like a filter in the kitchen sink to pull invading pathogens out of the lymph fluid and degrade them.
B. Lymph nodes act like a filter in the kitchen sink to pull invading pathogens out of the blood and degrade them.
C. Scan for invading pathogens: Macrophages can present antigens to B- and T-cells in the lymph node to warn them of invading pathogens in the nearby tissues.
D. Fluid that has passed through the lymph nodes will be delivered back to the blood through the thoracic duct.
2. Our bodies have the capacity to make unique antibodies that can recognize billions of foreign antigens. Yet, we don’t carry billions of unique genes to make these antibodies. It would completely overburden our cells to carry that many genes. Our immune cells have developed a clever trick to randomly generate these billions of antibodies through chromosomal rearrangement. Briefly explain the genetic basis of antibody diversity. Essay.
3. What cell surface molecule is a characteristic marker for T helper cells?
NOTE: in this question the “-” means minus, indicating that the indicated receptor is absent from that cell type. The “+” means positive, meaning that the cell type contains the receptor.
A. CD4-
B. CD4+
C. CD8-
D. CD8+
4. What type of lymphocyte generates antibodies?
A. Macrophages
B. T-cells
C. Natural Killer cells
D. B-cells
5. An advantage of the adaptive immune system only is:
A. its ability to have an immediate response to pathogens that breach physical barriers
B. its ability to distinguish between self and non-self molecules
C. its ability to protect the individual from pathogens regardless of previous exposure
D. its ability to create an immunological memory after an initial response
6. Three of the following statements about adaptive immunity are TRUE, but one is FALSE? Which of the following statements is false.
A. Response is to recognized “self” antigens
B. Response is maintained by memory cells
C. Response is tailored to specific antigens
D. Response is mediated by B and T cells
7. Figure 3-14 on p. 34 of the textbook shows the difference between the secondary immune response and the primary immune response. Explain what the two curves are depicting AND why they have different shapes. Essay.

Psychiatric mental health nursing practice

Psychiatric mental health nursing practice is one of the newest disciplines to be licensed to provide psychotherapy As such, the majority of psychotherapy research is centered on other disciplines such as psychology, social work, marriage/family therapy, art therapy, psychiatry, and mental health counseling. This makes it essential for you to be able to translate current literature from other disciplines into your own clinical practice. For this Assignment, you practice this skill by examining literature on group work and group therapy and considering its applicability to your own clients.

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources and reflect on the insights they provide on group work and group therapy.
  • Select one of the articles from the Learning Resources to evaluate for this Assignment.

Note: In nursing practice, it is not uncommon to review current literature and share findings with your colleagues. Approach this Assignment as though you were presenting the information to your colleagues.

The Assignment

In a 5- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation, address the following:

  • Provide an overview of the article you selected, including answers to the following questions:
    • What type of group was discussed?
    • Who were the participants in the group? Why were they selected?
    • What was the setting of the group?
    • How often did the group meet?
    • What was the duration of the group therapy?
    • What curative factors might be important for this group and why?
    • What “exclusion criteria” did the authors mention?
  • Explain the findings/outcomes of the study in the article. Include whether this will translate into practice with your own client groups. If so, how? If not, why?
  • Explain whether the limitations of the study might impact your ability to use the findings/outcomes presented in the article.

Note: The presentation should be 5–10 slides, not including the title and reference slides. Include presenter notes (no more than a half page per slide) and use tables and/or diagrams where appropriate. Be sure to support your work with specific citations from the article you selected. Support your presentation with evidence-based literature.

>Information Systems homework help

While this weeks topic highlighted the uncertainty of Big Data, the author identified the following as areas for future research.  Pick one of the following for your Research paper:

  • Additional study must be performed on the interactions between each big data characteristic, as they do not exist separately but naturally interact in the real world.
  • The scalability and efficacy of existing analytics techniques being applied to big data must be empirically examined.
  • New techniques and algorithms must be developed in ML and NLP to handle the real-time needs for decisions made based on enormous amounts of data.
  • More work is necessary on how to efficiently model uncertainty in ML and NLP, as well as how to represent uncertainty resulting from big data analytics.
  • Since the CI algorithms are able to find an approximate solution within a reasonable time, they have been used to tackle ML problems and uncertainty challenges in data analytics and process in recent years.

Your paper should meet these requirements:

  • Be approximately four to six pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
  • Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
  • Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
