Review Chapters 8, 9, and 10 in your course text, Crisis Intervention Strategies. As you read, focus on the similarities and differences between the three types of individual, couple, and family crisis situations: crisis of lethality, sexual assault, and/or partner violence.
Review the articles, “Optimistic Explanatory Style as a Moderator of the Association Between Negative Life Events and Suicide Ideation” and “Best Practices for Working With Rape Crisis Centers to Address Elder Sexual Abuse.” Focus on how the issues examined in these articles are either unique to the particular crisis discussed or are shared with the other crises you have examined this week.
Select two of the three types of crisis situations you have studied this week. (Be sure that one of your selections is different from the two you chose to analyze in this week’s Discussion.) Reflect on how the two types of crisis situations you have selected are similar as well as how they are different, particularly in terms of their breadth of impact, the intervention strategies most often used in response to these situations, their intended outcomes, and the effectiveness of these intervention strategies in achieving these outcomes.
The assignment (2–3 pages):

Identify and briefly describe the two specific types of individual, couple, and/or family crisis situations you have selected.
Explain how the two types of crises are similar and how they are different, including, but not limited to the following:
Their breadth of impact
Crisis intervention strategies that might be used for each
The intended outcomes of intervention strategies used for each
The effectiveness of the outcomes of intervention strategies used for each
Explain what insights you have or conclusions you can draw based on this comparison.

Based on your findings what do you believe (and what does research indicate) could be improved for this population in terms of current mental health services?

Sanders (2013) notes “Within a biblical framework, Christian counselors must navigate the ethical obligations related to cultural diversity presented to us within our disciplines. Counselors, pastors, psychologists and students alike need to be aware of and respond to the recommendations and requirements of our disciplines related to this aspect of our practice” (pg. 319).

Using your textbook and 2 research journal articles of your choosing (use the Liberty University Online Library resources), research a population of your choice and answer the following questions in your essay.
• What are some of the key psychosocial issues for this population?
• What are some of the central therapeutic approaches?
• Would the population you are researching be difficult for you to work with? Are there any relatable psychosocial issues that may evoke an emotional reaction in you?
• Based on your findings what do you believe (and what does research indicate) could be improved for this population in terms of current mental health services?

Assignment Information Sheet: Assignment 1: Qualitative Analysis & Report

Word Count: 1500 (-/+10%)

  1. Please choose ONE SET of transcripts from either the British Dream or the Technology Use interviews. This should be the practice session where you were the INTERVIEWER.
  2. Carry out a qualitative analysis of the 3 transcripts using either Thematic Analysis (TA) OR Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA)
  3. Write up a report of your analysis and findings. This report must follow the format of the Structure & Content Guide outlined below.

Report Structure & Content Guide

Methodology

Data Collection: 250

Comment on the sample population, its relationship to the general population of the UK and how this might shape the type of data collected and the claims that can be made from the analysis.

Comment on the Interview Schedule, the topics explored and the kind of questions used to structure the interview. Given the format of the schedule discuss what the purpose of the research could be (this will help you decide which kind of analysis you will use on the transcripts). Use citations to support your claims.

Comment on how and where the interviews were carried out.

Analysis: 250

Discuss the analysis process: Which analytical method did you choose and why is it suitable for the data set (the transcripts) and the purpose of your analysis. Discuss the approach used in coding. Use citations to support your choices.

Provide an overview of the coding process: Comment on first phase coding: what elements of the transcripts were manifest in each transcript (what kind and content did your initial codes take). Comment on second phase axial coding (across the 3 transcripts) and the development of latent codes. Discuss the development of the main themes (2-3) to emerge from your analysis.

Results: 1000

Introduce the main findings of your analysis: What are the 2-3 main themes you developed? How do you define these themes in terms of content and meaning? What kind of codes does each theme include? What distinguishes each theme from the others? What are the relationships between each theme?

Taking each major theme in turn:

Beginning with the one you consider most significant, discuss each theme it in terms of content and meaning. Use extracts from the transcripts to provide examples and highlight the meaning of each theme. Critically discuss the latent meaning of the theme, why you find it significant.

Repeat for each remaining theme.

TA – Provide an Initial, Developed and Final Thematic Map in the appendices (can be hand drawn on paper and added as 3 photos).

IPA – Provide a Master Table of Themes

Appendices (not included in Word Count)

Parenthood (1989) is a film that deals sensitively and humorously with family life and the stages of human development. The reciprocity between family members is poignant and mostly accurate (under the circumstances). The film depicts normal and abnormal developmental issues. Using short synopses of scenes from the film to make your point, you will write a 4-5 page (900-1200 words) analysis (double-spaced, 12 point font), focusing on the following: Analyze Gil

Gil is in his Middle Adulthood stage. Discuss whether Gil exhibits “generativity or stagnation”, Erikson’s psychosocial crisis for this age. Define both parts of the crisis citing textbook (6 pts – 2 pts each for defining both sides of the developmental task)

Evaluate the impact of Gil’s generativity or stagnation issues on his career, his family (kids, parents, siblings), and his marriage. Provide specific concepts from the textbook and examples from the movie that are related to this Lifespan stage in terms of career, family and marriage to support your answer. Cite both the movie and textbook in correct APA format (12 pts – 4 pts for discussing work issues, 4 pts for discussing family issues, 4 pts for discussion marriage issues using appropriate concepts)

Analyze Frank Discuss the changes you see in the character Frank Buckman (Gil’s father) throughout the movie from Early Adulthood through Late Adulthood using Erikson’s Psychosocial crisis in Early Adulthood, Middle Adulthood, and Late Adulthood. Make sure you discuss both sides of all 3 crises from each of these 3 stages (9 pts – 3 pts each for defining both sides of all 3 developmental tasks)

Evaluate the impact of Frank’s crisis at each stage on his family and his marriage. Provide specific concepts from the textbook and examples from the movie that are related to these 3 Lifespan stages in terms of family and marriage to support your evaluation on the impact of these crises on his family and marriage. Make sure you cite the movie and textbook in correct APA format. (12 pts – 4 pts for examples from each of 3 stages) Analyze one other character from either the Early Adulthood, Adolescent or one of the Childhood stages of Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory of Development.

Given the behavior and approximate age of the character you chose to analyze, explore which of Erikson’s psychosocial crisis the character might be facing. Using specific concepts from the textbook, support your choice of which psychosocial crisis your character is facing, making sure to define both parts of the crisis. (6 pts – 3 pts each for defining both sides of the developmental task)

Discuss the possible impacts of this psychosocial crisis on the character’s relationship with family and any significant others. Provide specific concepts from the textbook and examples from the movie that are related to this Lifespan stage to support your evaluation. Cite both the movie and textbook in correct APA format (10 pts)

Use either Gil or the character you discussed in Question 5 (do NOT use Frank). In looking at the character’s life 1 year from the end of the movie, what psychosocial crises would they now be facing? In your analysis, if you think the character will still be in the same psychosocial crisis, evaluate how you think they will have resolved the crisis at this point by applying 4-5 concepts from the textbook to support your answer. How do the circumstances at the end of the movie impact where they end up in 1 year? (20 pts) Because you are expected to draw from the theory and concepts in the textbook, be sure to properly cite any references in your paper. Your paper will be graded for correct APA citing in your answers (8 pts). Since you are citing the textbook you will also need a separate reference page for this assignment in APA format. (10 pts).
