PSY 490 Week 1 The Diverse Nature of Psychology
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper in which you analyze the diverse nature of
psychology as a discipline.
Address the following items as a part of your analysis:
Evaluate the influence of diversity on psychology’s major concepts.
By diversity, I mean how psychology as a field has many subdisciplines with
“diverse” areas of inquiry, such as biopsychology and organizational psychology.
We’re not referring to any particular area which may focus on diversity issues such
as multiculturalism.
Identify two examples of major concepts (or subdisciplines) and two examples of
subtopics within psychology.
Examples of major concepts and their subtopics include the following:
1. Motivation: theory of emotion, and approach and avoidance
2. Behaviorism/Behavioral Psychology: aggression, systematic desensitization, and
operant conditioning
3. Cognition/Cognitive Psychology: cognitive dissonance and false memories
How can the subdisciplines and subtopics you identified be applied to other
disciplines and venues in contemporary society?
For example, you could explain how psychology could be used in education to
help elementary school teachers keep children on task. Or, you could explain how
psychology could be applied in marketing to improve a person’s perception of a
product?
Relate the concepts/subdisciplines and subtopics to your theoretical perspective.
Finally, discuss your psychological contribution to society in the areas of work,
education, health, and leisure.
One peer-reviewed resource should be cited and referenced.
An introduction and conclusion should be included which each explicitly identify
the key elements the paper covers.
Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.
PSY 490 Week 2 Psychological Issue Action Plan
Imagine that you work as a psychosocial rehabilitation specialist to help children
suffering from emotional disturbances overcome maladaptive behaviors.
Select a psychological theory and obtain faculty approval of your selected
psychological theory.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word action plan that addresses the issue presented in the
scenario.
Explain how you will solve the psychological issue presented according to the
theory you selected.
Apply behavioral, cognitive, and socialization strategies to help your clients cope
with family relationships, peer interactions, aggression, social skills and academic
difficulties. Use creative, critical, and probabilistic reasoning to solve the issue
related to behavior and mental processes.
Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.
An introduction and conclusion should be included which each highlight the key
elements the paper covers.
PSY 490 Week 3 Ethics Awareness Inventory Paper
Prepare a 700- to 1,050-word summary of your findings from the Ethics
Awareness Inventory which includes the following:
Summarize your personal findings from the Ethics Awareness Inventory including
your ethical perspective and style
Discuss the role and importance of personal ethics in psychology and the Code of
Conduct.
Discuss how ethics can affect how you will apply psychological principles to
personal, spiritual, social, and organizational issues.
Assess how ethics affect psychological knowledge and principles related to
personal growth, health, and development.
Analyze advantages of psychology as a degree choice. How do ethics play a role in
your decision to pursue a degree in psychology?
Include two to three references.
Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.
An introduction and conclusion should be included which each highlight the key
elements the paper covers.
PSY 490 Week 4 Pay It Forward
Described a past experience an anonymous act of kindness. Examples include
helping someone carry groceries, paying for a stranger’s coffee, donating time or
money to a cause you believe in, and so forth.
Write a minimum 1000-word summary of your experience.
Address the following:
· Compare and contrast the respective roles of altruism, personal and professional
social responsibility, and codependency. Be sure to address each of these and
make sure that you actually provide a comparison and contrast of these
concepts in your discussion. How are they related, how might they differ?
How do these similarities and differences impact our understanding of
altruism and responsibility?
· How does altruism apply to psychology or psychological principles?
· How does altruism improve the human condition? Are there limits to altruism?
