Abnormal Psychology Project Part I: Exploration of a psychological disorder: Brochure 50 % You are going to create a brochure on a disorder to hand out to your classmates. 1) Choose a psychological disorder you are interested in. Only one group per disorder (first come, first serve) 2) Include typical symptoms of the disorder. 3) What are the different theories on the causes of the disorder (bio-psycho-social)? 4) What specific treatments, therapeutic and medication, are used for the disorder? 5) Prevalence (i.e. age, culture, family patterns) 6) Interesting facts about the disorder (i.e. popular or famous people with the disorder) 7) Brochure should be easy to read and understand. 8) Include at least 3 sources: remember, we are not psychologists. This is an activity of exploration. Part II: Visual Aid 20 % You need to create a visual aid to use in your class presentation. The following are options: 1) Watch a popular film that depicts a character with your disorder and show a scene(s) from your movie during your presentation that clearly portrays the disorder. 2) Create a home video depicting the disorder. (Remember to be respectful. It is not appropriate to make fun of any disorder). 3) Interview and video someone with the disorder or who works with the disorder. 4) Poster, Power point, Prezi, Animoto or anything else you can think of. Part III: Fractured Fairy Tales 30 % You are going to rewrite a common fairy tale giving the main character(s) your disorder. 1) Choose a fairy tale you are familiar with (refer to the list provided). Two groups may not use the same story (first come, first serve). 2) Using your researched knowledge of the disorder, rewrite the story as it would be if the main character had that disorder. 3) Stories should NOT name the disorder, but should describe it within the story. 4) Type the finished story and include all group members names on the top of the page. 5) Be prepared to discuss your character(s) and their disorder. After all presentations are complete, students will read the fairy tales. Using the knowledge gained from the presentations, students will be asked to diagnose what disorder the characters in the fairy tale have. *Presentations should be no more than 10 minutes!
