Tanya DeanIn 125 to 200 words each, respond to at least two classmates. In each response, address your classmate’s questions and concerns with information from class and your own research or web search. Then, analyze your classmate’s description of argument and provide additional information or share examples of the basic elements of an argument.EXAMPLE OF A RESPONSE:Hi BOB, I think I had another class with you. I also  become irritated when a person do not see my point a view and if they don\’t agree I sometimes just shut down.  I would never do well on debate teams. I enjoyed reading your discussion and I support your  opinion on removing God from all things, doing so will be is a very big mistake. this country was builded on Biblical principles and to survived it must be ruled by them.  I can imagine this argument can become very emotional and difficult to remain open when a person knows God.  I wish you much luck in this class and I look forward to reading more of you discussions.

In the past few years, there have been several studies on psychopathic personalities. Psychopathology has always been considered a psychological theory of crime. With these new studies (where they have tested the firing neurons in the brain), there is now a controversy over whether a psychopath would fall under the category of a psychological or biological theory.For example, one study showed incarcerated psychopaths a series of slides that showed not only photos of happy families and pleasant landscapes but also photos of gruesome crime scenes. It was noted that in what was deemed the normal population, the neurons fired in several sections of the brain when the pleasant photos were shown and in a different section when the gruesome photos were shown. In the psychopathic population, all neurons fired in the same area of the brain. Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

This paper should include the bills of rights (amendments). For the final exam, you will be analyzing three different hypothetical cases. Please answer the questions for each case in complete sentences, with proper spelling, grammar and punctuation. Each answer should be at least 3-4 paragraphs in length, and contain reasons for your answers. Please provide citations to cases if you feel it is necessary to fully answer the question.A police officer who works near a local airport observes a car speeding on the road leading into the airport. He stops the car and approaches the vehicle, where he sees a man alone in the driver’s seat and his suitcase in the back seat. The travel or is sweating profusely, and keeps telling the officer he is in a hurry to catch a flight. The officer asks the traveler if he can search his luggage, and the man says yes. When the officer unzips the bag and starts the search, the man changes his mind and says no. At that point, the officer leaves the bag unzipped but still laying on the back seat where the contents are not visible. He calls for another officer to bring a drug detection dog to the site. The other officer and the dog get called to a more urgent search and don’t appear. The traveler asks to leave, which the officer says is ok, but he won’t let him take his bag. The traveler refuses to catch his plane, and asks for an attorney.Analyze this case from both the traveler’s and the police officer’s perspective. What constitutional rights are at issue? Have any of them been violated?A police officer observes a motor home driving erratically down a main street at 10:00 a.m. She is concerned that the driver may be impaired by alcohol or drugs. When the officer approaches the driver’s side of the vehicle, the window is down and she can smell a strong marijuana odor. She also observes two other people in the vehicle, a woman in the front seat and a man in the middle of the mobile home sitting at a table. She also observes a clear plastic bag on the table with a white powdery substance inside. What can the officer do next based on these facts? Be specific in your answer.

Topic \”Motivational Interviewing Help to Increase the Self Efficacy of Hong Kong Gamblers in Adult\”

I have attached the research proposal and ideal structure for the writer to follow.

The overall wording is around 8000-10000 words.
APA format which including over 20 reference sources.

The research finding should be showing by chart or scale, and the data need to be analysed by SPSS and indicated in the paper. I will attach more instruction in the mail.

This research paper is multiple case study in counselling using the technique of Motivational Interviewing on 3 individual gambling problem clients whose aged within 20-30 years old and having problem in gambling before, the following exam tools used will be in Pre-test/ Mid-term/ Post-test (Total 6 sessions).

1. South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS) was developed by Henry Lesieur, Ph.D., and Sheila Blume;
2. Gambling Disorder under DSM5 Criteria to test the level of gambling problem in 3 clients.

As indicating in the topic, I will test their self efficacy by using the following tools in Pre-test/ Mid-term/ Post-test before the client do the SOGS and DSM5 test.

1. General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) by Schwarzer & Jerusalem, 1995

So the tools and event will happen and be applied in the following sequence:

Characteristic:
Client A (Higher self motivation to change, willing to attend the counselling session) /
Client B (Mild motivation to change, under estimate the gambling impact) /
Client C (Lack of motivation to change, low self awareness).

All client are following the same sequence of tools applied and found as the result below (the result could be based on writer\’s judgment under their professional knowledge in motivational interviewing, and I would appreciate if the writer could add his own professional view about the limitation of motivational interviewing.)

Pre-test (Before session 1) (All three shown low self efficacy and mild to high score in gambling problem in SOGS and DSM5)
GSES-SOGS-DSM5

Mid-term (Before session 4) (All three shown improvement in self efficacy, A is better than B & C, show lower score in gambling problem)
GSES-SOGS-DSM5

Pre-test (After session 6) (All three shown fair level of self efficacy, A is high and B & C is mild, show no issue in gambling for A and B, but C is still scoring little of gambling problem mainly on relapse problem.)
GSES-SOGS-DSM5

: In your Final Project, you will synthesize an overview of the major theories relating to the pathology of a disorder as well as provide a detailed discussion of the etiology (causes) and clinical interventions, using research to support your analysis.  Your topic will be the neuropsychological disorder that was selected and approved by the instructor in your Week One assignment, and for which you provided an outline in the Week Two assignment.   In keeping with the focus of this class, the emphasis of your paper will be on the neuroscience aspects of the disorder, to include: Your research will include a minimum of six to eight peer-reviewed sources, which provide evidence-based information regarding the biological and psychological features of the disorder and were published within the last five years. At least four of your references should be peer-reviewed publications of original research studies. To justify your assertions, provide in-text citations for all factual statements taken from your research, with corresponding references drawn from scholarly sources.  All citations and sources are to be documented according to APA style, as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center, and should support and enhance your analysis of the selected disorder. Sources may include review articles, original research articles, information from government agencies (e.g., National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control, Food and Drug Administration, Drug Enforcement Administration) or professional societies (e.g., professional society position papers or clinical practice guidelines).       This section should provide a general introduction to the topic as well as an overview of the background and history of the disorder. Further, it should provide a succinct thesis statement of the purpose and overall direction of the paper.  For instance, if your paper will have a large focus on the role of particular neurotransmitters in the etiology of the disorder as a rationale for treatment options, you should indicate this in the introduction. Finally, this section should provide demographic data that indicates the prevalence of the disorder in both general and specific populations.   Specific required components of the Introduction:    This section should make up the majority of the Final Project in terms of size. Here, you will expand upon the main aspects of the disorder and provide details relating to the disorder and its management. This section should provide specific and detailed information (Reminder: All statements of fact require an in-text citation).   Cited/referenced sources should be used to support your analysis of the components of the discussion.   Specific required components of the Discussion section:    Provide a concluding summary of your findings regarding your selected disorder. The conclusion is a summarization of information that has already been presented.  Typically, if you mention something in the conclusion section of an academic paper, you should have already mentioned this aspect of the topic earlier in the paper. Specific required components of the Conclusion section:    The Final Project:
