Psychodynamic Theory Scenario

Timothy is a 32-year-old Caucasian male who is married with 2 male children, ages 2 and 4. He grew up in a household with 2 older sisters, making him the youngest child. His parents are still married, and he has a close relationship with his mother. As a child, Timothy began playing sports at 6 years old and quickly excelled. When he was 9 years old, he broke his ankle playing baseball and took 6 months to recuperate. Despite his injury as a child, he played on his school’s baseball team throughout middle school and high school. In high school, he struggled to maintain his grades in his classes and focused the majority of his attention on sports and friendships. He was quite popular and made friends easily.

After high school, he earned a scholarship to a local junior college for baseball, and he continued to play while he finished his associate’s degree. After college, he obtained a job with his father’s company to pay the bills, but he did not feel any type of attachment to or satisfaction from it. He married his wife when he was 26 and has been the main financial provider for his family.

He is seeking career counseling because he has been unable to find and maintain a job that provides him with meaning and satisfaction.

You participated in the “facial recognition lab”. That exercise is the basis for the mini lab report. At the end of the exercise you were given a number of “hits” which is operationally defined as the number of correct responses.

The data below is your data set for your mini lab. For this assignment, you are the researcher. You gave the facial recognition lab to 40 students, 20 males and 20 females. The data set below contains the number of correct hits for each subject.

Complete the calculations below based on the data provided.
