An Historical Perspective

/in /by

Discuss how the history and philosophical foundations of counseling have contributed to current trends and professional issues in clinical mental health counseling. Support your points using readings from the unit and at least one additional peer-reviewed article not found in the unit.

This is something I came up with you can feed off this if you like ” No Plagiarism Please” 🙂

theprogression of counseling has been great throughout history!Counseling has always been a very noble profession that is directlyconcerned with helping people with problems and psychologicaldifficulties. Over the years, it evolved from a single concept to onewith interdisciplinary bases. Beginning with the simultaneousconcerns of its founders including Frank Parsons, Jesse Be. Davis,and Jane Addams Frank, vocational guidance, character development ofschool children, and mental health treatment became available which,in turn, improved individual lives and society overall. (Historicaland Professional Foundations of Counseling). Each person whocontributed their visions and theories to the field of counselingbuilt a foundation that others used to improve the field over thepast century. This eventually grew into the system that we have todaywhich is ready to handle the concerns of the 21st century. A goodexample is from 1889 when Jane Addams Frank Parsons established theHull House in Chicago which was one of the first establishments toassist individuals in need of counseling. Her philosophy influencedthe social justice movement and the field of counseling even todayover 114 years by providing a foundation for services for people whoare in need of mental health care (Significant Events in theDevelopment of the Counseling Profession). “In addition to thedevelopment of theory and the generation of practical ways of workingwith people, important events in the development of counselinginclude the involvement of the government in counseling during andafter World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, and thelaunching of Sputnik” (Historical and Professional Foundationsof Counseling). With as strong foundation provided by the pioneers inthe field, counselors today are ready to deal with the situations ofthe modern world including horrendous violence (such as the eventthat occurred in Fort Hood Texas or Sandy Hook school shootings ),trauma, and crisis. They are equipped with the ability of finding foradditional resources (to help their clients) in the healthcareindustry, knowing how to interact positively with clients, promotingmental health wellness, and advocating social justice to correspondwith client needs.

Week 6 – Final Assignment

Integrative Literature Review

The primary goal of this literature review is to integrate concepts from four different content domains within the larger field of psychology. The four content domains should be chosen from previous coursework in this program. In this paper, students will review the findings in the individual empirical articles, organize the research in a meaningful way, evaluate the reliability, validity, and generalizability of the research findings, and present an integrated synthesis of the research that sheds new light on the topics within and across the four domains.

The result of a successful integrative literature review may be a significant contribution to a particular body of knowledge and, consequently, to research and practice. Therefore, before writing this literature review, substantive new research must be conducted via the Internet and within the Ashford University Library for each of the four chosen domains. A minimum of six sources must be included for each of the four domains. Although content from literature reviews completed in prior courses within this program may be included, it may not constitute the total research for the individual domains addressed within this assignment. No more than four sources from previous literature reviews completed in this program may be utilized for this integrative review.

The headings listed below must be used within the paper to delineate the sections of content. These sections include the following: a clear introduction that provides a general review and organizes the research in a meaningful way; a discussion in which the evidence is presented through analysis, critique, and synthesis; and a conclusion in which the discussion is drawn together in a meaningful way, the claims of the introduction are brought to a logical closure, and new research is proposed.

Introduction

· Provide a conceptual framework for the review.

· Describe how the review will be organized. The questions below may be used to guide this section.

o What are the guiding theories within the domains?

o How are the domains connected?

o Are there competing points of view across the domains?

o Why is the integration of these domains important?

o What is the history of these domains?

o What are the related theories or findings?

· Describe how the literature was identified, analyzed, and synthesized.

· How and why was the literature chosen?

· What is your claim or thesis statement?

Discussion

· Provide the analysis, critique, and synthesis for the review.

Analysis

· Examine the main ideas and relationships presented in the literature across the four domains.

· Integrate concepts from the four different content domains within the larger field of psychology.

· What claim(s) can be made in the introduction?

· What evidence supports the claim(s) made in the introduction?

Critique

· Evaluate the reliability, validity, and generalizability of the chosen research findings.

· How well does the literature represent the issues across the four domains?

· Identify the strengths and the key contributions of the literature.

· What, if any, deficiencies exist within the literature?

· Have the authors omitted any key points and/or arguments?

· What, if any, inaccuracies have been identified in the literature?

· What evidence runs contrary to the claims proposed in the introduction, and how might these be reconciled with the claims presented?

· Explain how the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct might influence the reliability and/or generalizability of the chosen findings.

· Did the ethical issues influence the outcomes of the research?

· Were ethical considerations different across the domains?

Synthesis

· Integrate existing ideas with new ideas to create new knowledge and new perspectives.

· Describe the research that has previously been done across these domains, as well as any controversies or alternate opinions that currently exist.

· Relate the evidence presented to the major conclusions being made.

· Construct clear and concise arguments using evidence-based psychological concepts and theories to posit new relationships and perspectives on the topics within the domains.

Conclusion

· Provide a conclusion and present potential future considerations.

· State your final conclusion(s).

· Synthesize the findings described in the discussion into a succinct summary.

· What questions remain?

· What are the possible implications of your argument for existing theories and for everyday life?

· Are there novel theories and/or testable hypothesizes for future research?

· What do the overarching implications of the studies show?

· Where should the research go from this point to further the understanding of these domains and the greater study of psychology?

Project: Coaching

Coaching Session 2

People often seek the assistance of coaches for support when they are trying to make positive changes in life. These changes can be as simple as arriving at work on time each day or more complex objectives encompassing time or life management, motivation, decision making, lifelong learning, and behavior modification. 

Week 3 Assignment

Last week, you helped your coachee identify a couple of professional objectives and the importance of those objectives. This week, continue to discuss with your coachee the relevance of the objectives you have identified as priorities. What short-term and long-term benefits might your coachee realize when these objectives are achieved? Is your coachee facing any challenges, roadblocks, or resistance? Is your coachee fearful or resistant, on any level, to make changes necessary to achieve these objectives? What does the coachee need to do to overcome the challenges, fear, or resistance?

As you ask meaningful and thought-provoking questions, gently guide your coachee to the answers that lie within. Avoid directing your coachee or offering solutions before the coachee has had ample time to explore and develop answers and solutions. The focus of this week’s session is not on developing action plans to achieve the objectives. Rather, it is to assess the things that might prevent the coachee from achieving them.

For this second coaching session, submit a coaching report that provides the following information: 

  • Recap the coaching session (1 to 2 pages)
    • Where did the session occur?
    • When did it occur?
    • Who was being coached?
    • Who was the coach?
    • Summarize the conversation. Who said what?
    • Any key details about the relationship or interaction that need to be recorded? (e.g., impressions, difficulties, opportunities, things that were missed, things to explore in the future, boundaries, parameters, etc.).
  • Analyzed the short- and long-term benefits to the coachee for achieving the objectives (½ to 1 page).
  • Assessed the challenges, resistance, and fears that might prevent the coachee from achieving the objectives (½ to 1 page).
  • Assessed what the coachee might need to do to overcome the challenges, resistance, and fear (½ to 1 page).
  • Clarify the action steps that you (as coach) need to complete prior to the next coaching session. For example, what information do you need to research? What resources do you need to locate? What follow ups do you need to complete? What skills do you need to refine? (¼ to ½ page). 

Submission Details:

  • Submit your report in a three- to five-page Microsoft Word document, using APA style.

Learning about the structure of memory can improve your study skills. In this assignment, you will discuss the academic applications of memory models and try to apply the principles to yourself. Use the readings for the module and the terminology of the subject and respond to these questions:

  • You are a teaching assistant for an undergraduate history class and need to prepare a test. You want evidence to show that students know the material well. What kind of test would you prepare? What kind of test do you think requires the most in-depth knowledge? Why?
  • As Dan took his history test, he could not recollect many of the dates he had studied. Dan had memorized some important dates just before the test. While he was doing this, he was also talking on the phone. Which of Dan’s memory stores—sensory memory, short-term memory (STM), or long-term memory (LTM)—do you think were most affected by his phone conversation? Why? Could Dan have done something differently to prevent forgetting the dates? Explain.
  • Identify two different kinds of mnemonic devices that could help Dan remember dates for his history test. Explain how they could be used.
  • Melissa is disappointed that she received yet another “D” on a test. She studied for several hours by reading and rereading her textbook and class notes. Based on the levels-of-processing memory theory, explain why Melissa’s method of studying was not very effective? What could she have done differently?
  • Using Baddeley’s working memory model, give an example of two tasks that could successfully be performed simultaneously (For example, can you listen to music while studying at the same time?). Discuss two other tasks that probably would interfere with each other. Make sure to discuss your answers in terms of the visuospatial scratchpad, the phonological loop, and the central executive.

Write your initial response in 4–5 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
