· Debate the arguments supporting and opposing the use of projective and objective personality assessments with your identified client.

/in /by

In this assignment, you will compare projective and objective methods of personality assessment. Research a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles that were published within the last 15 years on these techniques. In your paper, you will provide an evaluation of these techniques organized according to the outline provided below. Use information from your researched peer-reviewed articles and required sources to support your work in each section.

Section 1: Objective Personality Assessment

· Define the term objective in objective methods of personality assessment.

· Summarize the features of objective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures.

· Explain the assumptions on which objective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified.

· Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of objective tests.

· Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of objective tests.

Section 2: Projective Personality Assessment

· Define the term projective in projective methods of personality assessment.

· Summarize the features of projective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures.

· Explain the assumptions on which projective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified.

· Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of projective tests.

· Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of projective tests.

Section 3: Synthesis, Conclusions, and Recommendations

· Write a brief one-paragraph scenario for a fictitious client. Include the following information: presenting concerns (reason for referral), age, gender, ethnicity, language(s), and any other significant information (e.g., military status, health issues, marital status, sexual orientation, etc.).

· Debate the arguments supporting and opposing the use of projective and objective personality assessments with your identified client.

· Select a minimum of one objective and one projective measure to use with your client. Compare the use of the selected projective and objective personality measures with your identified client.

· Analyze the advantages and limitations of each assessment measure you selected.

· Compose recommendations to improve the validity of personality assessment.

The Evaluation of Objective and Projective Measures of Personality

· Must be four to six double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA

· Must use at least three peer-reviewed sources published within the last 15 years in addition to the course text.

· Must document all sources in APA

· Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style

You must discuss at least 3 separate ethical theories. This means thoroughly defining each theory with at least 2 separate, credible sources and then step by step explaining how the codes apply or rejects an ethical theory.

Minimum 6 sources on Ethical Theory NOT the “topic” (DO NOT USE Pp slides or videos).

Ethical arguments included in any chapter can be used in your papers. I am not looking for your opinion; I am looking for an ethical viewpoint. You can include any relevant personal experiences, graphs, charts, and any other information that may help you describe your moral dilemma.  Be sure to include a minimum of 6 total sources using APA guidelines and include them in your references and citations to help you highlight your ethical theory application.  Writing is expected to include critical thinking about how ethical theory and information from your references relate to each assignment topic.

A Professional Code of Conduct

This paper will include a set of five to ten principles (that you create) that, combined together, provide a code of conduct for YOU in the role YOU plan to fulfill in your professional life.  You may focus on a code of conduct as the professional you will be or you may address a code of conduct you will share with your staff or co-workers in your professional role, i.e. owning a retail company, managing a veterinary clinic, etc.  You should begin by researching codes of conduct that exist for people in your position, either by personally inquiring or by doing online research.  You may use some of these in your code of conduct but you must add your own to put your stamp on it. The sources you find and use should be referenced appropriately.

Once you have established the codes of conduct, you must discuss what ethical theory (or theories) apply or reject each code. This should be the main focus of the paper. You must discuss at least 3 separate ethical theories. This means thoroughly defining each theory with at least 2 separate, credible sources and then step by step explaining how the codes apply or rejects an ethical theory.

Within the paper, you may also discuss the reasons for your code of conduct choices indicating the overall intent of your code in its entirety.

Here is my paper #1, follow my major in paper #2.

PART A

One day as your professor is driving to work, another driver runs through a red light and hits his car. The professor is shaken up but survives the incident. However, the next time he starts to enter the intersection, he becomes nervous and fearful. Soon, he starts going to work via another route to avoid the intersection even though this route adds twenty minutes to his commute in each direction.

According to the principles of classical conditioning, why does the professor become scared of the previously harmless intersection? What can he do about this, as going via the other route is very time consuming? Be specific. Break down the situation into its parts, and show how the principles of learning apply.

 

PART B

After graduating from college, you are hired to work in a factory overseas as an industrial psychologist. The workers put together IPODs. The boss wants to know the best pay schedule to get the maximum number of pieces made by his workers. The boss wants you to describe various schedules of payment to him and tell which might be best for the plant. Using the principles of operant conditioning, describe the various pay schedules and what would be the best one for the goal of getting the most production.

Complete the Multimedia Presentation Planning Worksheet, in which you will discuss your potential multimedia presentation for Project 3.

Download the Multimedia Presentation Planning Worksheet to help you start Project 3 off on the right foot. Since this course has entailed quite a bit of writing thus far, this assignment provides you with an opportunity to get creative. You have the choice of three tools—Prezi, PowerPoint, or Microsoft Word—to present your opinions and observations on the creation and value of historical inquiry as it relates to the work you have done on your first two projects.

Maybe you have always wanted to try Prezi, you are already comfortable using PowerPoint, or you want to format your presentation as a newsletter in Word (feel free to get really creative here and have fun with this). No matter your preference, decide which tool would be the most effective method for you. Complete the worksheet to gather your thoughts around what text, visuals, and audio you might include in your multimedia presentation.

To complete this assignment, review the Multimedia Presentation Planning Worksheet Guidelines and Rubric document.

There are 2 sets of forces that shape much of the human experience: forces that push us together (e.g., engagement, globalism, secularism, and capitalism) and forces that pull us apart (e.g., isolationism, nationalism, spiritualism, and tribalism).

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

  • Identify how these forces influence intercultural contact in your community.
  • Describe 1 way that each force promotes or hinders intercultural contact.
  • Provide at least 1 idea or action for increasing push forces and reducing pull forces.
  • Why do you think your ideas or actions would work?
  • How would they benefit your community?
