1.) explore the meaning of decolonization; 2.) identify main challenges in psychology and strategies for growth; 3.) reflect on what you have learned and decide on which strategies you will amplify so that we can move our field to be more inclusive and more representational of the entire human experience.
This paper relates to the study of personality specifically because so many of our “frames” this semester are focused on explaining behavior solely through a Western European and White American experience. This practice has inherently biased us towards privileging that experience and expecting all people to conform to that standard. All of the resources to get you started are in the “Decolonize Personality Resources” link on Blackboard and are linked within this document as well.
(My video guidance for the paper is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iy8bvhUKHBA)
Your paper should have two main parts that will follow the format described below by addressing each point:

PART 1: Identifying main challenges in Psychology and designing strategies for growth in our discipline: (2 – 4 pages) (10 points).

1. Dr. Sunil Bhatia: Dr. Bhatia refers to Dr. King’s call to Psychology in 1967: https://www.apa.org/monitor/features/king-challenge – Read this challenge. What are the parts of Dr. King’s call that you feel are most important and impactful? Pick at least two points that Dr. King makes, quote him and explain it in your own words.
2. How does this frame the need for and definition of decolonization? In your own words, describe what “decolonizing psychology” mean? (Hint: Dr. Bhatia can help you with this)
3. Dr. Jesica Siham Fernandez discusses Participatory Action Research (PAR) (starting at 18:30 in the video): Discuss in your paper what PAR is.
4. How is PAR a paradigm that supports the decolonization of psychology?
5. Dr. Joseph Gone discusses working in mental health services with American Indian communities (starting around 38:21): Dr. Gone learned from the communities he worked with how “discourses of distress” contribute to problem drinking amongst American Indians.
6. Discuss in your paper how the inclusion of collective trauma in understanding mental health diagnoses might be important in supporting BIPOC communities.
7. Describe Dr. Gone’s “clear pathological process” from his work with Traveling Thunder and the “pathogenic aspects of the ‘Whiteman System’” and what that might mean for understanding the psychological impact of colonization and oppression.
8. How might this approach assist mental health practitioners in serving BIPOC communities and how might this improve our field as a whole?
PART TWO BELOW ( 2 -3 PAGES)
9. What does it mean to you as a student to explore “what you know, the process of knowing and compare this to how you experience the world”? In what ways do you feel like your experiences in the world are reflected in what you have learned in the psychology classes you have taken? In what ways have they not been reflected?
10. Why is a written assignment like this important? Name one thing that you learned through this assignment that was challenging to you. Name one thing that you learned that felt liberating and inspiring.
11. In what ways will you carry what you learned from this assignment into other courses that you are taking in Psychology? What are some of the strategies or quotes that you learned through this paper that you would want to amplify in other courses that you take in Psychology?

piece of case law from 1999 to look for how logic has been used in the justice system. Read the entire piece of case law to get a good sense for the events and outcomes. Then:
choose one or two sections and identify the fallacies and arguments. Do not identify arguments throughout the entire document. This exercise is intended for you to use a small portion of the case law and go through it thouroughly for arguments and fallacies.
You should identify at least five arguments or non-arguments.
For example, you can identify at minimum two arguments and three non-arguments, or three arguments and three non-arguments.
As you identify each, state why it is an argument (or not and argument).
If it is an argument then identify the conclusion of the argument and the reasons (premises) offered in support of the conclusion. If it is not an argument, be sure to point out the error in logic.

Unit 4 Assignment: Pricing
Due Date: Sunday at 11:59 pm of Unit 4 Points:100
Overview:
The marketplace is filled with many products and brands. Unilever is a company that produces personal care items such as Suave shampoo and distributes them to a vast array of retailers. The retailers, in turn, offer the product to consumers. Sometimes, the consumers are end-users of the shampoo. Other times the ‘consumer’ maybe another store which will, in turn, re-sell the product. In this assignment you will examine why retailers adopt the pricing strategies they do as well as various consumer shopping habits.
Instructions:
Choose a product you buy on a regular basis. Examples could include food products, gasoline, health and beauty items, etc. Find this product for sale at three different locations. This can be online through Amazon or another online retailer or in a traditional store. Develop a chart that identifies the product you are researching, the companies you visited which sell them and the price each of the retailers is charging for the product. Make sure you are comparing the same size and quantity of each. For example, if you are comparing Suave shampoo, you want to find the same type and size of Suave shampoo to compare. You will evaluate the pricing factors and strategies for this product.
Provide an introduction to the company, the needs/value they are serving, their target customer and the social media platforms they are utilizing. If they are using multiple platforms, list them here and then choose 1 to evaluate in the next section.
• Start with an introduction paragraph that Introduces and describes your product and why you chose this product.

Product Company Price
Suave Essential Ocean breeze shampoo 30 o.z
Walmart
$2.82
Suave Essential Ocean breeze shampoo 30 oz.
Target
$2.99
Suave Essential Ocean breeze shampoo 30 oz.
Dollar General
$2.00
• Explain why you think there are price differences for the same product at different stores. Include at least 2 of the external and 2 of the internal factors which might be affecting the companies pricing strategies.
• Describe why consumers might decide to purchase the higher-priced item even though it can be purchased less expensively somewhere else.
• Conclude your paper with an overall assessment of what you learned from this comparison. What
• Include at least two resources to support your work. At least one resource must be from the Post University library.
Requirements:
• Length: at least 2 double-spaced, APA formatted pages (Not including cover or reference pages)

Topic: Analysis of a Short Story

Format: MLA. Access the Purdue OWL MLA Formatting and Style Guide here- https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/

Length Requirement: 750-1,000 words

All sources must be cited

Your Process:

Write an essay that discusses why and how specific symbols are used to depict one or two of the themes from Unit 2 in a particular way. Your essay should incorporate details and quotes from the story (using parenthetical documentation with the author’s name), and you should use your own words to elaborate on the meanings of the details and quotes you use as evidence. The themes to choose from are:

Love (Romantic, Platonic, or Filial)

Stories To Choose From:

Kate Chopin’s “The Storm” http://americanliterature.com/author/kate-chopin/short-story/the-storm

Instructions:

When writing your essay, the goal is to demonstrate what spin the story has on a particular theme. Be specific about the ways the theme is used and how the story’s use of symbols develops a deeper meaning to the theme. Provide details, including cited direct quotes from the story, but don’t forget that you must comment on the quotes you use to explain why they are significant.
As an example, one student might focus on how in Chopin’s “The Storm,” the passion between Calixta and Alcee is represented by the symbol of the rain storm and makes a social commentary on the theme of love. Love is a very general term, so this student should note that s/he is focusing on forbidden, or adulterous, romantic love in particular and comment on how that refines the broader theme. One appropriate thesis statement for this particular topic would be something similar to the following:
“Although Calixta loves Bobinot, she willingly has a passionate affair with Alcee in order to demonstrate that passion, represented by the storm, is ultimately a symbol of her own female independence.”
Then, you would contrast Calixta’s relationship with Bobinot with her relationship with Alcee in order to show that Calixta could simultaneously function as an efficient housewife and passionate lover to her husband if society at the time would allow such a woman to exist.
[Note: This thesis is provided as an example. Do not use it verbatim for your own paper; use your own excellent ideas!]

Academic Honesty

Plagiarism in any form is unacceptable. Please ask if you have questions about what constitutes plagiarism. Your words and your ideas must be your own.

Formatting and Style

Be sure to maintain an appropriate academic tone (no slang, second-person [“you,” “we”], contractions, etc.)
Your essay should be typed, double-spaced, in 12-point Times New Roman font, with one-inch margins, and numbered pages. Include your name, my name, the title of the class, and the date in the upper left-hand corner of the first page. Center your title (you do not need to underline or italicize it) and place it above the body of the essay. Do not include a title page.

POST 1

Describe the approach to a comprehensive assessment of suspected delirium. Include description of assessment parameters that would need to be examined to arrive at that diagnosis.
Delirium is complex and multifactorial syndrome resulting from global organic cerebral dysfunction (Bush et al., 2017). Delirium is a frequent cause of psychotic symptoms, bizarre delusions, abnormal behavior and thought disorders. Delirium in the elderly is frequent during hospitalizations. Delirium fluctuates dramatically and includes the patient’s appearance, affect, mood, thoughts including hallucinations and delusions, inquiry into self-destructive behavior, homicidal behavior, judgment, and orientation (immediate, recent, and long-term memory) (Alagiakrishnan, 2019). Delirium can develop quickly and an acute change in consciousness or difficulty focusing regarding the conversation may occur during an interview. Patients who develop delirium and frequently unable to recall why they are where they are or the events which lead them to be in their current location. Patient may develop false beliefs or see or hear things which are not really present. These patients may misjudge their level of wellness and leave a healthcare setting or end needed healthcare (Alagiakrishnan, 2019).
The diagnosis of delirium is clinical related to the delirious patient is usually unable to provide accurate information. The patient information will need to be obtained from the family or caregivers. Documentation of previous care are beneficial to assess for episodes of disorientation, abnormal behavior, and hallucination (Alagiakrishnan, 2019). The provider in screening for delirium should obtain a baseline cognitive screen and then use a validated delirium screening tool. Then they should observe and investigate any changes in the patient’s cognitive status, behavior, or self-care. The provider must identify differences between dementia, depression and delirium. The provider must: 1. obtain a recent medical history, including function, cognition, diet, falls, bowel, and bladder function; 2. Complete a medication review, noting any changes in medications; 3. Complete a physical and mental status exam, including VS, chest examination, cognitive and delirium screening; 4. Complete urinalysis, CBC and chest x-ray. A tool used to assess delirium is the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM).

POST 2

Compare and contrast major or mild vascular neurocognitive disorder versus major or mild neurocognitive disorder with Lewy Bodies. For this discussion, you will need to place particular emphasis on how comprehensive assessment could help us to arrive at the correct diagnosis.
According to the American Psychiatric association (2017), a mild or major neurovascular disorder is diagnosed by memory impairment and one of the following aphasia, apraxia, agnosia or disturbance in executive function. Additionally, the impairment has caused social or occupational function deficits that were not present before. In contrast, a major or mild neurocognitive disorder with Lewy bodies (NCDLB) is diagnosed when a patient has one core feature and one suggestive feature. The core features are fluctuating cognition with pronounced variations in attention and alertness, reoccurring visual hallucinations that are detailed, features of Parkinsonism with onset after cognitive decline. The suggestive features are rapid eye movement sleep behavior problems, or severe neuroleptic sensitivity. Differentiation occurs when a disturbance is not better explained by cerebral neurovascular disease or another neurodegenerative disease, substance abuse, or other disorder (American Psychiatric Association, 2017). To differentiate between the two we can look at the progression of Lewy body neurocognitive disorder. Early stages may involve hallucinations, delusions, restlessness, acting out during sleep and urinary urgency. Middle stages may include motor difficulty, speech difficulty, swallowing difficulty and increased paranoia. Later stages include speech difficulty, ADL difficulty, extreme muscle rigidity, and sensitivity to touch (Sadock, Sadock, & Ruiz, 2017).
Differentiation is done by assessment and physical exam. During the diagnostic part of the comprehensive exam, MRI or CT can rule out neurovascular disorder (Domino, Baldor, Golding, & Stephens, 2020). During the HPI section of the comprehensive assessment persons with neurocognitive disorder with Lewy bodies can present with fluctuating cognition. A family member might state one day the patient is fine and the next day the patient’s memory is impaired. Whereas, neurovascular disorders will present with sudden and sustained deficits. Another condition present in Lewy body disease not present in neurovascular disease is the complaint of sleep disturbance (American Psychiatric Association, 2017). A family member or patient may mention this as a chief complaint or describe this in the HPI. It may even come up in the comprehensive assessment when talking about sleep patterns and hours of sleep. During physical assessment, neurovascular disorder may affect one side of the body. Therefore, there will be impaired motor activity to one side despite intact motor function on the other side. Likewise, there may be a failure to identify an object despite intact sensory function. Neurocognitive disorder with Lewy body is also progressive. Over several visits the practitioner may find that motor function is declining more or speech may be declining more. In contrast, neurovascular disorders present more suddenly. Finally, during assessment of social history neurovascular disorder patients will have a sudden decline in social or occupational function. NCDLB may decline gradually over a long period (American Psychiatric Association, 2017).
Current research is looking at genetic biomarkers for diagnostic testing for early identification of NCDLB. Five Alpha-synuclein genes were tested for biomarkers in blood and temporal cortexes. SNCA transcripts that were specific for NCDLB patients were found to increase in the brain and diminish it blood test. This shows some promising results in the possibility of using biomarkers, which are not currently present, to help diagnose NCDLB (Marsal-García et al., 2021).
