    Authentic Assessment: Informed Consent

    This week you will create an informed consent form that could be used with clients to notify them of their rights and responsibilities.

    Write a word essay addressing informed consent. Be sure to completely answer all the questions for each bullet point. Separate each section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know which bullet you are addressing in that section of your paper. Support your ideas with at least three (3) sources in your essay. Make sure to reference the citations using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference page do not count toward the minimum word amount. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment.

    Create a sample informed consent document that could be utilized in an advisor capacity. Begin by doing an Internet search to examine sample documents (the search term informed consent for guidance brings up a variety of options); you may utilize any of the samples you find as the basis for crafting your own document. In most cases, you will discover that you will find relevant components from a variety of different samples that you will want to piece together to fit your needs.

    As you create your informed consent, keep the following questions in mind:

    • How would you inform your clients of their rights and responsibilities?
    • What are some of the themes of the ethics codes with respect to the rights of clients?
    • From an ethical perspective, why is informed consent of paramount importance?
    • From a legal perspective, what are the three elements involved in adequate informed consent? Define these terms: capacity, comprehension of information, and voluntariness.

    You do NOT need to answer these questions specifically, rather you should keep them in mind as key issues as you create your informed consent

  • Maya case

    Overview A descriptive or direct assessment is sometimes included in the FBA. Conducting the descriptive assessment requires you to observe the target behaviors and measure baseline data of the behaviors. A behavior is effective and relevant if it can mediate changes in the environment. Evaluating the stimulus changes co-occurring with the behavior can help us hypothesize the functional reinforcers that are influencing them. Instructions For this assignment, your instructor will provide you with a case study and a template. From the information provided in the case study, you will complete the following activities within the provided template: Describe the scientific rigor(s) exemplified by conducting the descriptive assessment. Describe the benefits and limitations of conducting a descriptive assessment. Provide an operational definition of the concerning behavior. Quantify the target behavior observed in the five observation periods by using a line graph to display the data. Be sure to construct an APA compliant graph. Describe the trend of the data path. Complete the contingency diagrams. Complete the ABC-QA for attention, tangible, and demand. Display the results of the ABC-QA by using a bar graph. Provide an interpretation of the bar graph and conclude the hypothesized function(s) influencing the target behavior. Summarize the compassionate and/or cultural variables one should consider when conducting a descriptive assessment. Be sure to use supporting evidence such as journal articles and/or the Capella Compassion Code. Be sure to complete the self-assessment grading rubric included in the template. Be sure to incorporate values of compassion and cultural humility when choosing measurement procedures and conducting the descriptive assessment. You can refer to the Capella Compassion Code [DOCX] Download Capella Compassion Code [DOCX] for more details. In addition, complete the self-assessment grading rubric included in the template. Additional Requirements Your assignment should meet the following requirements: Written communication: Should be free of errors that detract from the overall message. APA formatting: Paper, references, and citations are formatted according to current APA style guidelines. Use Academic Writer Links to an external site. for guidance in citing sources and formatting your paper in proper APA style. See the Writing Center Links to an external site. for more APA resources specific to your degree level. Resources: At least three scholarly or professional resources. Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12-point. Refer to the MS in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Research Guide Links to an external site. for help finding resources. Refer to the Descriptive Assessment rubric to ensure you understand the grading criteria for this assignment. Competencies Measured By successfully completing this assignment , you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and scoring guide criteria: Competency 1: Assess the environmental variables and functions of behavior. Provide an operational definition of the concerning behavior. Competency 2: Assess client’s skills, deficits, and preferences to determine appropriate intervention needs. Explain the benefits and limitations and the level of scientific rigor of a descriptive assessment. Competency 3: Apply knowledge of functions of behavior. Quantify the target behavior observed in the five observation periods (provided in the case study) by using a line graph to display the data. Describe the trend line of the data path. Complete the contingency diagrams for all behaviors, but include some errors on identifying the stimulus change. Complete the ABC-QA for attention, tangible, and demand. Display the results of the ABC-QA by using a bar graph with no graphing errors, but some data is incorrect. Provide an interpretation of the bar graph and conclude the hypothesized function(s) influencing the target behavior, with minimal errors. Competency 4: Apply compassionate approaches to assessment procedures. Incorporate values of compassion and cultural humility when conducting the descriptive assessment.

  • SW1021 Family Studies and Interventions Discussion Responses…

    PLEASE RESPOND TO THE TWO CLASSMATES POST BELOW. MUST BE ORIGINAL WORK AND SOURCES MUST BE CITED IN APA FORMAT.

    (CLASSMATE 1)

    In this vignette, Maria and her 9-year-old daughter Sonia have requested counseling services. The family has been experiencing dysfunction surrounding Maria and her husband, Gerry, who separated 6 months ago. In addition, anxiety and depression for family members appear to have intensified due to the father’s increased drinking. The clinical social worker will need to be mindful of current environmental factors that impact the family’s interpersonal effectiveness skills (Lewis et al., 2025). According to Lewis (2025), the family will benefit from counseling services if the therapist can provide assessment, conceptualization, and interventions to mitigate anxiety within the family system. The clinician can do this by using cultural and intellectual humility when interacting with family members in a therapeutic setting.

    As Maria is experiencing depression and currently taking antidepressant medication, the clinician will need to identify and examine how Family of Origin Violence (FOV) can potentially impact childhood and adult depressive symptoms. If the family is experiencing unproductive interpersonal communication, it can have lasting repercussions on a family member’s self-esteem and boundary-setting (Lewis et al., 2025). Sonia has taken on the parentified child role, meaning she is caring for her mother but is not expressive of her own emotions, which can lead the family into crisis if left unresolved (Myer et al., 2014). The clinical social worker will need to use a strengths-based approach during the counseling sessions. The clinician can achieve this by engaging in collaborative family counseling to identify the family’s current strengths, needs, and abilities. It is important to note that this will be an ongoing process, and the clinician should provide informed consent and outline treatment expectations to promote transparency. The clinician could lead the family to gain insight into their current disorganized system, potentially aid them in adjusting to changes in their routine, and promote adjustment (Myer et al., 2014).

    In conclusion, the clinical social worker will need to ensure they provide ethical, evidence-based interventions to assist the family in improving their ability to function during a crisis (Myer et al., 2014). The clinical social worker will need to provide ongoing risk assessment, psychoeducation surrounding substance use, referral to self-help groups, and examine the importance of exploring emotions to assist Sonia with enhancing her stress tolerance by promoting her emotional health. The clinician will need to help the family structure and prioritize which problems to address first to promote a healthy adjustment to the current demands they are encountering (Brown & Manning, 2009).

    (CLASSMATE 2)

    A clinical social worker utilizing structural family therapy would review each component of the family structure including Maria (Mother) Husband (Gerry) and Sonia (Daughter). Presently the subsystems within the family involve a Parental-Child subsystem between Maria and Sonya, a spousal subsystem between Maria and Gerry, and Parental system with Maria (Gerry has separated from Maria and it is unknown if he is living within the household however it appears Maria requested counseling services for her and her daughter and since the couple is not divorced would not require the other parent to sign off on his daughter receiving services although it is critical to note that Gerry not being present during counseling sessions presents a broken link within the family chain). It appears familial roles are not constructed appropriately associated with the definition of the role, for example Sonia is spending time inquiring with her mother about her depression when Maria is not reciprocating the inquire regarding how Sonia feels along with her emotionally absent father experiencing an increase in alcohol consumption. The hierarchy structure appears to be reversed with Sonia taking on a parental role based on her mothers depression and fathers alcohol use which is a common attribute of a child being raised within an environment with an addicted parent according to (Lander et al., 2013).

    Regarding a case conceptualization a structural family social worker would begin with Sonias behavior as presently Sonia utilizes two separate models of behavior within two separate environments. While in the classroom Sonia is acting out whereas when Sonia is within the parental home suppresses her emotionality and becomes an emotional caregiver to her mother. With Gerry not being involved with family unit an emeshment has begun to develop between Maria and Sonia however the roles are reversed within this enmeshment due to Marias ongoing episodic depression. Between Gerrys alcohol use and Marias depression it would appear the Sonia is experiencing emotional instability, poor academics and behavioral outbursts all symptoms related to a child growing up within a parental alcoholic use environment according to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (2019) website. The symptoms involving each member of the family unit correlated with Gerry increasing alcohol use due to the separation of the marriage, Marias depression occurring due to the marital situation and becoming the primary parental caregiver and Sonia experiencing behavioral dynamics in her school setting but displaying a regression of emotion within the home environment.

    • Related to interventions, a structural family clinical social worker would engage the family beginning with a restructuring of the family system to restore previous hierarchy and boundaries within each subsystem particularly Marias ability to parent Sonia appropriately without expecting Sonia to be a primary emotional caregiver for her mother. The clinical social worker would solidify role definitions within the family structure to ensure that triangulation and enmeshments were reviewed for appropriateness especially when Maria is not emotionally present for Sonia. Aligning this with Gerry as well is a very important step to the creation of a co-parenting relationship that is consistent across environments.
    • Along with the above interventions listed the following referrals would be created:
    • Sonia- A child-based group for Children of Alcoholics to support Sonia with her thoughts/feelings about her fathers absenteeism and alcohol use.
    • Maria- An individual counseling MFT, LCSW, LPCC or Clinical Psychologist for support with depression maintenance
    • Maria & Gerry- Marital Counseling for the purpose of reshaping the relationship or developing a co-parenting program for Sonia.
