    You will receive a selection of questions. Your task is to write a reflection essay on one of these questions. The assignment is a reflection paper not a demonstration of your ability to repeat the thoughts of the course instructor. You are asked to provide your own thoughts.

    You must refer to lecture videos or updates. Your paper should be in conversation with the lecture material. I am not particular about citation styles. According to lecture… is an adequate way of citing lecture. You should feel encouraged to write in the first person.

    Question Prompt Choices (Choose One Question)

    1. Comedy films, of recent years, often rely on the mockery of other human beings (often the unrepresented or disenfranchised). What do you think the social psychological meaning of modern film humor suggests about how we co-exist with other people? If humor provokes a private response that is natural, (that we laugh without it necessarily being willed), what is it within our personal psychology that our modern comedies are stimulating, confronting, or encouraging? Are comedy films changing, or are they still mostly on the same path? What does your response say about the state of our social psychology?

    2. In the last decade with the massive success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we have been provided with figures who are largely super human (inhuman in relation to people like you and me) and are mostly defenders of our North American system. We have also, in the last few years, been presented with heroes who were older and consistently identified as male. In many cases these heroes challenged corruptions within systems but left the systems in the place. What do these representations of heroes, and its difference from the hero that questioned society and power, tell you about the ways we are encouraged to think of fighting evil or power? Are the battles that are fought on the screen battles that matter to you. Is the understanding of heroic changing, and if so, or not, what does this say about our shifting social psychology, and does this touch how you think on a personal level?

    3. Fantasy films were once cinematic representations of a desire for personal and social psychological hope in something more and better than what is generally provided in adult life. This hope, in fantasy films, tends to be supported and/or offered by magical or spiritual forces. What do you think the popularity of fantasy films says to us, as a social psychology, about the absence of spirituality or mystery in our modern understanding of the psychological self? What do you think the cost would be to popular cultures relationship to our social psychology if fantasy films, of the sort described above, faded from our screens? Is this already occurring? Given that many fans of fantasy films do not actually believe in the power of magic, is our escape to this genre a sign of promise in something other than ourselves or is it an escape into a temporary delusion where we imagine we live somewhere else, for a little while?

    4. Traditionally, dystopian films have presented future worlds where natural disasters or the growing divide between those who are powerful and those who are not have led to paranoia and the need to protect yourself and your dependents to survive. Recently we have been given films where individuals are dependent on artificial intelligence technologies that are superior not only in terms of intelligence but also in basic ideas of moral goodness. What do dystopian films seek to tell us about our current reality? Why, given their often negative and condemning comments about humanity, are they popular? From feeling paranoid, to the desire for self-protection (which breeds further paranoia), to new appreciations of non-human guidance (Artificial Intelligence, what can we theorize about the social psychology of dystopian films in terms of personal warnings or social criticism?

    5. In my lectures on horror films (video) I suggested horror films are largely about disorders that threaten our fragile faith in order. In the past few years, we have films focused on trauma caused by fractured social structures, including the family, mental illness, and media identity (the development and presentations of media influences as representations of oneself). We have been fearfully wondering about who we really are and whether we are the good people we want to think ourselves to be. More recently, we have had a number of horror films about threats to tight knit communities and to our children. What do you identify as a main trend in recent horror films (the past few years) and what do you think it shows about our shared fears or concerns? Are our fears about real threats or are we hiding from those?

    6) All these film genres, discussed in this class (with the possible exception of fantasy films), have become more violent and graphic than they have been in the past. Many comedy films have characters badly hurt and bleeding, hero films demand violent solutions to problems, and dystopian and horror films have become more violent than they have ever been. Are we starting to change our views on the value of violence. Is it funny? Is it becoming necessary? Why is body horror such a component of many popular films? What sort of social psychological theory can you initiate based on your observations about our appreciation for more violence in our entertainment?

  • Effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions for anxiety…

    Evidence-Based Practice Paper (Topic; Effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions for anxiety in college students) Rationale: Social workers are expected to understand evidence-based practices (EBP)s and then to educate, network and evaluate as part of their profession. Having updated research knowledge and updated community resource knowledge about problems addressed by social workers ensures efficacious practice. Instructions: Students will write a paper on an evidence-based practice for a problem in an area of interest to the student, and then critique their community resources using the literature review as a guide. Use paper outline to write paper. Criteria for Assignment: 8-10 page paper APA style format Title page, Abstract, & Reference page 10 references minimum Paper Outline: A brief description of the problem. This section should describe the scope of the issue within your community include relevant statistics and data. A literature review of articles describing evidence-based practices for the problem. This section should be based on articles taken directly from the original research (i.e. peer reviewed journals). NOTE: Information from the articles should be synthesized, not simply described one by one. Please describe the research that establishes your chosen practice as evidence based. Include if the EBP has been researched within a diverse group. You must include 2 different groups (age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, class). At least one group has to be based on intersectionality-for example African American women, older White males, refugees, LGBTQ2IA+). If you have a difficult time finding enough articles for a particularly narrow problem (i.e. cutting/self-mutilating behaviors among Native American adolescent males), consider looking at related articles (i.e. cutting among other populations). While this may or may not be perfectly relevant, use good judgment in how would apply the findings. (By the way, your problem does NOT have to be that narrow!) A description of the services for the problem in your community. Include a listing and BRIEF description of agencies, professions employed at the agency including key professional values and orientations, practitioners, websites, support groups, community activities, etc. Identify what EBPs are utilized by the agency. You should specifically address if the agency utilized the EBP you researched above as well as any other EBPs utilized. A critique of the services in your community based on the literature review. Be sure to: Develop and use clear criteria for your critique. Focus on whether or not the service/agency utilizes the EBPs described above. You may also assess availability of services, outcome data, and other of indicators of effective practice. Give a grade for how you think your community measures up to what we know works (EBP). Give a rationale for your grade.
  • Journal article analysis

    Description Pick 1 Journal article on Coursepoint and write up a summary. Summary Guidelines: 1 page The summary should be written with enough detail so that a reader would not have to look at the original research to understand all the main points. A well-written summary should cover three main points: why the research was done, what happened in the experiment, and what conclusions the author drew. Why was the research done? The first section of your summary should include all the important background information and context. It should also include the authors purpose for doing the research and the goal or hypothesis. You should typically be able to pull all this information from the introduction. What happened in the experiment? Next, cover what happened in the methods and results sections of the paper. This is important for letting the reader know what happened in the experiment. Do not mix the authors analysis with this section: simply state the facts first. This will keep your summary organized. Also, try not to include too many specific numbers or details. Only offer what is necessary or helpful in explaining what happened. What conclusions did the author draw? Lastly, write about the authors analysis and everything they concluded from the experiment. Go over all the main points that the author makes here, including their conclusion, limitations, and future directions. Remember that the conclusion is not the same thing as the results. Results are the outcomes of the experiment, and conclusions are what the author says the results mean. Analysis How is this research relevant or important? **Contents All required elements are fully addressed, easily identified, and integrated into assignment. Why the research was done, what happened in the experiment as why conclusions the author drew. **APA citations and References Journal article is cited on a reference page at the end of the paper. There are no errors in formatting.
