Paper is about a Television Character: Television provides us with many interesting examples of interpersonal and neurotic behaviors. In this assignment, you will delve into the life and actions of some of your favorite television characters and analyze them using Horney’s coping strategies.

Interestingly, Horney’s three coping strategies for one’s neurotic needs correlate very well with three of Adler’s different personality types:

  •        Horney’s moving-toward strategy—Adler’s getting or leaning type
  •        Horney’s moving against—Adler’s ruling or dominant type
  •        Horney’s moving away from—Adler’s avoiding type

Using Horney’s theory of coping with neurotic needs with three different interpersonal orientations, select a TV program of your choice containing a character that Horney would identify as exhibiting neurotic behaviors. As you watch a full episode of this show, focus on this character and tally each instance of moving-toward, moving-against, and moving-away behavior.

Research Horney’s theory using your textbook, the Internet, & library resources. Based on your research, respond to the following:

  •        Discuss this character’s neurotic needs and trends.
  •        What do you think has happened in his/her life that has led to these behaviors?
  •        In addition to general life events, how has gender and culture influenced the character’s neurotic needs and behaviors?
  •        How do these interpersonal orientations impact the way this character interacts with others and develops relationships?

Write your response in 5 – 6 paragraphs. Must have at least one Reference & Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Argument Analysis Essay

For this assignment, you will compose two short critical essays explaining and evaluating arguments by other authors. This assignment allows you to analyze an issue from a variety of perspectives and assess arguments for or against the issue. By focusing your attention on how the original authors use evidence and reasoning to construct and support their positions, you can recognize the value of critical thinking in public discourse.

Read the two articles “Predictive Probes”, and “New Test Tells Whom a Crippling Disease Will Hit—and When” from the textbook and write two separate analytical summaries. These articles can be found in the chapter titled: Deciding to accept an argument: Compare the evidence.

This assignment has two parts.

Part 1—First Article

Write an analytical summary of the article focusing on the article’s main claims. Include the following:

·                     Identify the three ways the author uses evidence to support assertions.

·                     Identify the places where evidence is employed as well as how the author uses this evidence. Discuss evidence “as the reason” vs. “the support for the reason.” Also discuss evidence as dependent on the issue/context.

·                     Analyze how the author signals this usage through elements such as word choices, transitions, or logical connections.

 

Part 2—Second Article

Write an analytical summary of the article focusing on the article’s main claims. Include the following:

·                     Identify the author’s use of the three elements: experiment, correlation, and speculation to support assertions.

·                     Analyze how the author signals the use of these elements through language. For example, word choices, transitions, or logical connections.
