Psychology  Creativity: Relaxing the Left Brain: Inverted Drawing Exercise

This exercise is worth 20 points. To turn in your work you will need to scan it in and created a PDF file (please send a copy of the original work as well so I can see what you were trying to copy). You are not being graded on your artwork rather on your ability to describe your experience in two to three paragraphs. Talk about how you were feeling prior to the exercise, during it and when it was done. Comment on what you think of this exercise in creativity and relaxation, how it felt to actually do the drawing, how you felt during and after the inverted drawing exercise. Note how you were feeling, what your brain was doing and engaged in before, during and after the exercise.According to Kalat for almost all right handed people and more than 60% of left handers, the left hemisphere of the brain controls speech while the right hemisphere is responsible for spatial relationships such as what an object would look like if it was rotated. The left brain is verbal, logical, rational and analytical while the right brain deals with images, patterns, dreams, analogies and new ideas. Because of this difference in processing, the right brain is more conducive to the relaxation response (Davis, Eshelman, McKay, 2000).Using the imaginative and creative part of the brain can be relaxing. This exercise is adapted fromThe Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook (pg 58).I used this exercise in a Stress and Coping course. This exercise draws on the theory and work by Betty Edwards an art teacher and researcher (see the vase-face exercise on the moodle site). She forces her students to shift fromthinkingabout a drawing exercise tointuitingthe drawing exercise by asking them to draw the image upside down.The inverted drawing exercise is designed to cognitively shift you from labeling, logical, rational mode to a nonverbal, visual, intuitive mode the left brain can’t process. After the inverted drawing exercise, according to Edwards, “students reported less time urgency, less attachment to meaning, and a heightened sense of alertness, while feeling relaxed, calm, confident and exhilarated.”(adapted fromDrawing on the Right Side of the Brainas it appeared inThe Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook (pg 58).Kalat, J.W. (2008).Introduction to Psychology 9e.Davis, M., Eshelman, E. R., & McKay, M. (2000).The Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook.

Psychology  Using Personality Theory to Craft a Cover Letter

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, review the Cover Letters PDF  provided by the Ashford University Office of Career Services and the What Is a Cover Letter?  and Writing the Dreaded Cover Letter  online resources. It is recommended that you also review the e-book by Noble (2004) and the How to write cover letters (examples) video which include more information and a number of sample cover letters to assist you.For this discussion post, you will use the knowledge you have gained about personality, the career specific reports you have created in the previous weeks’ discussions, and assessments associated with various fields of psychology you have studied to help you to choose and develop a cover letter for a job in the human services sector. To begin, determine what type of job within the human services sector related to personality psychology is of interest to you. Using career websites, including those listed on the Ashford Career Services Job Search website, and/or other third-party search engines such as the American Psychological Association’s PsycCareers website, Monster.com , Indeed.com , and SimplyHired.com. Once you have found a suitable job posting, carefully review the requirements and note these for inclusion in your cover letter. Before you begin designing your cover letter, review the required readings, videos, and websites to help you determine how best to formulate it. Within the letter, you will address the person or title of the person that is listed as the contact for the job in the job posting. As you draft your cover letter, consider the elements within the job post and use your knowledge of personality theory to make yourself appear to be the best candidate for the job. Assess the various types of personality measurements that might be most effective in the position listed and mention how you might use these on the job. Once you have developed your letter, save it as a document and attach it to your discussion post. In the discussion post itself, copy and paste the link to the job posting for which you wrote your cover letter. Describe your experience(s) writing the cover letter including the ways in which you may have attempted to manipulate the reader to get the best response. Analyze and describe any ethical issues that could be associated with this process.Guided Response:  Review several of your colleagues’ posts and respond to at least two of your peers by 11:59 p.m. on Day 7 of the week. You are encouraged to post your required replies earlier in the week to promote more meaningful interactive discourse in this discussion.Review the job posting and cover letter created by your colleague.Was your colleague’s cover letter appropriate for the job indicated?What were the strengths of the cover letter?What area(s) could have used more detail?Suggest changes to the letter that would make it more effective for the job as listed. Include specific rationales for any recommended changes.Address the potential ethical issues your colleague mentioned as well as any you see that were not mentioned.Continue to monitor the discussion forum until 5:00 p.m. MST on Day 7 of the week and respond to anyone who replies to your initial post.Carefully review the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate this Discussion Thread.

Psychology  Suicide and Violence Analysis

Read the three scenarios below carefully. For each scenario, complete an abbreviated suicide risk assessment and intervention form using the attached template. Determine the client’s risk level by analyzing the person’s desire, intent, capability, and buffers, then document what an ideal plan of action would be based on their risk level (HINT: See the intervention chart in the Week 3 guided reading). For the purposes of this assignment, you should assume that the client is willing to acknowledge ambivalence.Scenario A: Sal is 62 years old and recently retired from his job as a police captain in a small suburban town. He took an early retirement because his wife recently died of liver cancer and also because of a knee injury he sustained about five years ago. He has been seeing you for grief counseling since the loss of his wife, but today he seems more upbeat than usual. Sal still experiences a lot of pain from his injured knee. He has been given Percocet for pain, which he will often take in order to get to sleep. Sal was very proud of being a policeman and feels he has been “useless” since his injury. He did feel good about taking care of his wife during her battle with cancer but feels lonely and empty since she died. Sal visits her grave every day and says he cannot wait until he “joins” her. Sal still sees some of his coworkers from the police department and every so often they will go to the shooting range together. He mentions that he has been clearing out his home, saying “I don’t want my kids to have to deal with all that junk when I’m gone.” When you ask him about suicide he admits to some ideation but denies having a specific plan.Scenario B: Maria is a 19-year-old college student in her sophomore year. She told her roommate that she has been feeling depressed over problems she was having with her boyfriend. Recently, Maria found out that her boyfriend was cheating on her with a mutual friend. When she confronted her boyfriend, he denied the accusations and told Maria that she was “just being paranoid and crazy,” but seized the moment to break up with her. Maria is feeling angry, sad, and hopeless. She won’t get out of bed and has been missing classes. She did well in her freshman year but is receiving a scholarship and is afraid that if her grades drop she’ll lose the scholarship which means that she’ll have to return home and attend a local community college. Maria reports that she feels overwhelmed. She thinks that nothing she does will make things any better. She reached you by calling the hotline of a mental health clinic today because she felt so “upset” that she was considering taking her roommate’s prescription medication and washing it down with vodka. Maria mentions to you that she was in counseling while she was in high school after her parents separated. Maria describes feeling “lifeless and hopeless,”  having no energy or motivation to do anything. She also reports that nothing is really enjoyable to her anymore and that as a result, she has become increasingly reclusive, preferring to be alone. Maria also states that she has not been eating or sleeping very well. She states that since the problems with her boyfriend began she feels she doesn’t have anything to live for.Scenario C: Beth is a 24-year-old separated mother of a 10-month-old daughter. She called the hotline of the local mental health clinic today because she felt so depressed that she could not get out of bed.  Beth explained to the hotline crisis worker that she has felt this way for the past six months. Beth described feeling hopeless and says that she has no energy to do anything. She also said that nothing is really enjoyable to her anymore, and as a result, she has become increasingly reclusive and prefers to be left alone. Since Beth’s husband left her to run off with one of her best friends, Beth thinks  she doesn’t “have anything to live for.” When questioned directly about suicide she admits to “thinking that at least death would take this pain away,” but denies intent. She later mentions that she tried to cut her wrists a few days ago when she received a copy of the divorce papers, but “lost the nerve” and could not go through with it. “Besides,” she said, “I could never leave my baby all alone, with no one to look out for her.”Watch this video:https://youtu.be/ENN50LGdwbg1.
