Clinical Personality Assessment.

Clinical personality assessments can only be completed and interpreted by a licensed psychologist who is trained in testing and assessments. Personality testing is usually done as a part of a larger battery of psychological assessment.  An individual or even several personality tests would not be administered in isolation without the supporting evidence from other testing and interviews.  This week you will become familiar with some of the main personality testing instruments.

WEEKLY RESOURCES

TO PREPARE

  • Clinical personality assessments. Review the Learning Resources about the six clinical personality measures (i.e., Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2, Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-III, Personality Assessment Inventory, Revised NEO Personality Inventory, the Rorschach, the Thematic Apperception Test). Then, choose one that will be the focus of your Assignment.

ASSIGNMENT: (2–3 PAGES, IN ADDITION TO TITLE PAGE AND REFERENCES)

Clinical Personality Assessment. Review one of the clinical personality measures from the materials you studied this week (i.e., Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2, Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-III, Personality Assessment Inventory, Revised NEO Personality Inventory, the Rorschach, or the Thematic Apperception Test) and include the following in your review:

  • Provide a detailed description of a clinical personality measure (i.e., Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2, Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-III, Personality Assessment Inventory, Revised NEO Personality Inventory, the Rorschach, or the Thematic Apperception Test).
  • Evaluate strengths and limitations of this personality measure.
  • Provide a minimum of two (2) examples and explain how this clinical personality measure could be used in professional settings.
  • Explain how a personality theory/theoretical orientation you studied in Module 1 relates to the clinical personality measure you selected for this Assignment. There is not necessarily a right or wrong answer but rather a rationale you provide in your analysis.

In addition to the Learning Resources, search the Walden Library and/or internet for peer-reviewed articles to support your Assignment. Use proper APA format and citations, including those in the Learning Resources.

Philosophy

Book IX, Chapter 8 of Nicomachean Ethics Page (146- In 148), Aristotle discusses two conceptions of self-love or selfishness. There is a common view of self-love or selfishness which he initially considers to be somewhat plausible, but after further analysis rejects as mistaken. He then describes another, more fundamental view of self-love or selfishness which he thinks is the correct one.

Describe the two conceptions of self-love or selfishness that Aristotle discusses. What role do reason and virtue play in each conception? What is Aristotle’s ethical evaluation of each conception? Do Aristotle’s views on what he considers to be the fundamental, properly understood nature self-love and selfishness challenge modern notions about this subject.

Executory Arbitration. Suppose that you are the HR manager for a company. Following a string of expensive law suits with former employees, your boss asks you to prepare a memo articulating whether or not your company should add a new policy in all employment agreements and employee handbooks which makes arbitration mandatory for any disputes arising out of employment with your company. Your boss is interested in reducing both the cost and public visibility of employment disputes, but she is also concerned about any legal problems with executory arbitration, including precedents, as well as any negative PR that might come out of such move. Draft said memo thoroughly discussing the options and their implications. Be sure to address, at minimum, the following:

Executory Arbitration

What are the advantages and disadvantages of arbitration as compared with the status quo of litigation? Are there any other alternatives worth considering? Is executory arbitration legal? Are there any circumstances under which such an agreement might not be enforceable? Even if it is legal, how are such agreements viewed generally? Are they perceived as fair among the general public? Executory Arbitration. Are there any potential repercussions in that respect worth considering? What  are the implications concerning arbitration in terms of precedent and  privacy? Do arbitration decisions create legal precedent? If so, can employees disclose information discussed in arbitration hearings to other parties without the company’s consent, such that it may be used in subsequent disputes?

Peer-Reviewed Essay Assignment

Length:  Approximately 2+ pages single-spaced in an appropriate and purposefully selected format; serif font

This assignment will provide clear instructions for doing/making/using something with which your audience might not be familiar. Your project must have an observable action or “finished product”.

Your topic:

  • is limited only in that it must be legal, moral, and not dangerous;
  • a volunteer peer reviewer must be able to follow your instructions in person (optional);
  • and there should be a “finished product” or an action which can be observed by others-a concrete, not abstract, task.

Although the task does not have to be complex, it should be something NOT familiar to everyone.

Peer-Reviewed Essay Assignment

Peer-Reviewed Essay Assignment

Your own photographs, drawings or illustrations must be included, but the biggest percent of your paper must be written directions (remember, this is an English class, not an art class).  The directions should be mostly in sentence/paragraph form-not just a list of steps consisting of sentence fragments-although lists of supplies or numbered steps are permissible.

Although a classmate, friend or family member will be your immediate audience, your instructions should be written for a wider audience-a lay audience which would not receive materials and help from you in order to follow your instructions.

Your instructions must include:

  • an effective title
  • a clear introduction explaining why this task is beneficial to the reader, about how long it will take, and how many steps are involved
  • a list of materials, tools, ingredients, or similar
  • a minimum of one graphic that supports your process, labeled and referred to in text
  • numbered steps with effective action verbs (a minimum of 10+ steps – feel free to break your steps into sections as appropriate, such as: preparing the guitar for stringing, stringing the guitar, tuning the guitar)
  • an effective conclusion which wraps up the document and provides additional information

You will be receiving at least ONE type of peer review. Evidence of one type is required.

  • The first peer review will be conducted with a classmate during class and will concentrate on the effectiveness of the writing and design of your document. *See the class schedule for peer review day.
  • The second type of peer review will be usability testing, where the draft of your assignment will be tested by a volunteer of your choosing (such as a roommate, a friend or family member). For this testing, you must supply all the equipment and supplies necessary for your volunteer to successfully follow your instructions. This type is optional.

Peer-Reviewed Essay Assignment

IMPORTANT In order to receive a grade on this assignment, someone must peer review or test your draft.  They should indicate their name on the draft they tested and made comments on and fill out the peer review validation form; you will need to submit the peer review validation form and draft as a scanned PDF or photograph when you turn in your assignment for grading.

Submit your assignment through the Blackboard portal including the following, clearly named documents:

  • Grading draft of your instructions
  • A filled out and saved, scanned or photographed peer review validation form
  • A saved, scanned or photographed peer reviewed draft with comments

CAUTION As this is a writing class intended to provide you with writing experience, it is expected that you will write your own instructions, rather than “borrowing” them from another source. While prewritten instructions are easy to find, this is an unethical practice and will result in a zero for the assignment. Use APA referencing style.
