Describe skills and experiences you have already gained and the preparation you have already made.

/in /by

This course provided you an overview of the discipline of psychology, including expectations for the psychology major, career options for students completing a bachelor’s degree in psychology, and career options for students who pursue a graduate degree.

Review from the readings the information on career paths for psychologists and counselors and do some of your own research using credible sources. Drawing upon the information you collected and analyzed in previous assignments and research, write a paper that outlines the career path that you think is most suitable for you at this point in your educational experience.

Be as specific as possible and include each of the following items in your paper:

• Identify a career path and explain why it is a suitable choice.
• Identify the skills, experiences, and educational requirements for this path.
• Identify your strengths and weaknesses and explain how they relate to your chosen path.
• Describe skills and experiences you have already gained and the preparation you have already made.
• Describe skills, preparation, and experiences you still lack (e.g., research experience, volunteer work, and development of a professional network).
• Outline a clear plan (including a time line) for meeting these goals and gaining these skills and experiences. Do outside research to discuss specifically where you can gain these skills and experiences, how much it will cost, and how you plan to prioritize.
• Select and describe at least one professional organization that would be appropriate for you to join in your chosen career path and why it is the most appropriate. Identify the specific resources and standards it would provide you as a professional.
• Design a plan for how you will ensure ongoing personal and professional development throughout your career. Include in the plan strategies established by research studies that foster a balance between physical and mental health. Identify options for seeking continued professional education in your area of interest or specialization upon graduation (e.g., conferences and online continuing education programs for professionals). Be specific and cite at least two sources for your personal and professional development plan.

Your annotated bibliography, specifically focusing on the “Discretion” topic (i.e. Protecting proprietary information ) in the context of protecting National Infrastructure.

Your annotated bibliography, specifically focusing on the “Discretion” topic (i.e. Protecting proprietary information  ) in the context of protecting National Infrastructure.
 

Annotated Bibliography sample attached.  Internet have many other samples of what this document should look like.
 

You paper must be in correct APA format, use correct grammar, and will need to include at least seven (7) resources (articles) related to Discretion with their respective short summaries for each article.
ALL of which must:
1) Be current. Published within the last 5 years.
2) Must be from Peer-Reviewed-Articles. ( University Library ).
3) All articles related to Chapter 7 Discretion.
 

Remember that an annotation is not the same as an abstract. Abstracts are descriptive. Your annotations are to be evaluative and critical. Give me enough information for me to decide if I’m interested enough to read the paper, and also how you perceive the paper. Don’t go skimpy on these annotations, but DO NOT write too much here. Quality is far more important that quantity. This exercise is for each of you to demonstrate that you can identify, categorize, and digest multiple research papers.
Every resource you choose must be peer reviewed. That means the paper must have undergone a formal peer review before being published in a journal or presented at a conference. You must ensure that your resources have undergone rigorous reviews. In most cases, you can find out the review process for a conference or journal by visiting the appropriate web site. Do not simply assume that a resource is peer reviewed – check it out.

Future Research

Resources Attributes and Evaluation of Discussion Contributions Professional Communications and Writing Guide Research Guide – Psychology: Sport Psych

New research is developing quickly in the field of sport psychology, and as it does, two exciting and potentially problematic trends are emerging. On one hand, sport psychologists can be better trained to address a variety of psychological (and even neurological) challenges with their clients. On the other hand, coaches and mentors outside the field are becoming more aware of sport psychology principles, and applying them to their work with their athletes. As the field of sport psychology evolves, we have to be increasingly mindful of the possibilities and thelimitations of our specializations—as coaches, sport psychologists, or consultants.

Consider the clusters of research in this unit’s readings:

Research on eating disorders and mental health challenges in athletes.Research on concussions.Research on education and certification, corrective feedback and confidence, and the value of quality training in sport coaches.Research on maintaining the emotional wellness of athletes.

What guidelines should exist to ensure that sport psychologists are proficient in the latest research in related fields, like clinical psychology? What guidelines could ensure coaches are mindful of sport psychology principles and practices? Do you feel the field of sport psychology should draw clearer lines between professionals (such as between sport psychologists and other mental health professionals, or sport psychologists and coaches)? If so, where? What types of future research in these areas would be most valuable for sport psychologists, coaches, and athletes?
