Explore how the presenting issues in your case might be understood with your chosen model as well as how the model might be beneficial in working with the case.

Modern Model Description and Case Analysis Assignment Description In this assignment, you will complete a model description for the modern model of therapy selected in the Unit 3 assignment. Examine the potential implications of using the model with your case; analyze how the attributes and assumptions of the model would shape your conceptualization and treatment considerations for the case. Please review your course project information and the Modern Model Description and Case Analysis scoring guide to fully understand the requirements of this assignment. Note: Only the requirements for the Model Description and Case Analysis need to be included in this assignment. The Case Study from the Unit 3 assignment is not required for this assignment, and as such is absent from the scoring guide. If you choose to include the Case Study from the Unit 3 assignment, it will not contribute to the page counts required for this assignment. In six or more pages, provide a brief overview of the history of the selected model and its founders. Discuss essential ideas of the model, including assumptions and methods of the approach, as well as how these aspects factor into potentially conceptualizing and working with your case. Expand fully on the initial fit between the case and model that was touched upon in the Unit 3 assignment. Explore how the presenting issues in your case might be understood with your chosen model as well as how the model might be beneficial in working with the case. Cite professional and academic sources (textbooks, peer-reviewed articles, books by original theorists), and be sure to address the following topics and implications for your case. In your Model Description (four or more pages) and Case Analysis (two or more pages) be sure to discuss: History, Founders, and Essential Ideas History, development, and founders of the approach. Essential ideas of the model. Model Characteristics Include analysis of how these requirements are conceptualized in the model. Role of the therapist. Theory of change. The target of intervention. Examine what or who is being targeted to effect change when the model as a whole is being used to intervene in a case. Assessment. The models ideas of normalcy, health, and pathology. How the model might work with and be sensitive to the cultural and diversity factors. How the underlying assumptions and tenets of this model align with it being a modern approach to therapy. Analyze whether this is a strength-based or deficit-based model and provide a rationale for your selection. Examples of intervention from this approach. Case Analysis What are the benefits of the chosen model with this case? How the case would be conceptualized according to the model. Analyze how specific interventions from the model might impact the case. When looking at the model chosen for your case, how do you attend to and account for the diversity and cultural factors? Note: Incorporate the model characteristics into your case analysis as needed. A successful paper will demonstrate that you understand the main ideas of the approach as well as the underlying assumptions implicit in the model. Sources Use at least four references to complete this assignment, two of which should be the required textbooks for the course. Please remember to use original sources throughout to support your assertions and conclusions. That means if you are discussing structural family therapy, for example, you will want to cite the work of the founder (in this case, Minuchin). Support your ideas with research, textbook citations, and anecdotes. Examples of primary journals for research and reference include: Family Process. Journal of Marital and Family Therapy. Journal of Strategic and Systemic Therapies. Journal of Family Psychology. If you have questions or need clarification about what is required for this component of the project, contact your instructor as soon as possible.

What could count as evidence in a religious argument?

Many authors (St. Anslem, St. Aquinas, Paley, etc.) have tried to prove that a god exists. How do you feel about their efforts? Do you think that this task is possible? Is there merit in the use of different styles of the proof based arguments, or is it the case that one style of argument alone (such as the cosmological argument) is sufficient to prove the existence of a god? If so, is evidence necessary to prove a god exists? What could count as evidence in a religious argument? Do you think the task is impossible? Is there any way to prove that a god exists? Is the effort simply bankrupt (and if so, why)? Is the existence of a god something that is merely a matter of faith? If a god does exist, would it have a type of existence that is simply too different than our own, and, therefore be inconceivable? The focus of the paper is to answer 2 questions: 1) is it possible to prove a god exists, 2) an explanation of your answer.

What is he trying to say about Middle America, the Moral Majority, and/or family values?

The movie American Beauty, directed by Mendes, brutally attacks Middle America or what Russell called the practical man. The movie really is not easy to digest or deal with, but in the end, what do you think their real message is? What is he trying to say about Middle America, the Moral Majority, and/or family values? Who are the real bad guys? Are they right? Is the movie really pessimistic, or does American Beauty offer (suggest) some chance of redemption?
