What is the main difference between Skinner’s analysis of behavior and the more common linguistic approach?

What is the main difference between Skinner’s analysis of behavior and the more common linguistic approach? What does Skinner’s verbal behavior primarily focus on that is clearly distinct from any other account of language development and intervention? Why is this useful?

What is the difference between knowledge and belief?

Please reflect on and respond to at least two of the following questions in some detail.  Don’t try to answer all of them. No previous knowledge about these topics is required, and there are no wrong answers.

  • Can we know anything for certain?
  • What is something you think you know for sure (or something you are most confident that you know for sure)?
  • How do we gain knowledge?
  • What is the difference between knowledge and belief?
  • Do all people equal ability to gain knowledge?  In other words, are some people better positioned to gain knowledge than others?

Length: 200 words. Attach in a word doc.

Grading: Pass/Fail

Note:

The only way to fail this assignment is to not meet the word requirement, or not address any of these questions.  Don’t worry about a grade here—instead, focus on articulating what you already believe, even if you haven’t thought about it much before.

Closing Bookend 1b: Epistemology

General guidelines:

Bookends are two-part journal reflections required for each unit.  The purpose of this assignment is to interrogate your own assumptions about “big questions” and evaluate if or how your beliefs have changed over the course of the unit.  These are low-stakes assignments.This assignment will help prepare you for your final paper, as well as improve your ability to interrogate your own beliefs.  At the beginning of the unit, you posted your thoughts on a few “big questions.” Now that we’ve explored the subject, you will reflect on those same questions.

Epistemology bookend questions:

Go back and read your Opening Bookend 1a.  Now reflect on and respond to the same questions you previously answered.  Answer the following questions:

  • Did your beliefs change?  If so, how?
  • What arguments changed or solidified your beliefs?
  • Are you more or less confident in your answers to these questions?
  • After answering these questions, feel free to include other thoughts or general reflections on the unit.

Length: 300 word minimum

Grading: Pass/Fail.  Attach in a word document.

Note:

It is more than okay if you don’t have answers to the original questions.  Focus on identifying the process of your beliefs as they either changed or stayed the same.  This is a meta-epistemological exercise: what is your knowledge about knowledge?

Unit 1 Assignment: Epistemology in Media

We have spent 4 weeks discussing topics in epistemology, including skepticism, rationalism and empiricism, the “Justified True Belief” analysis of knowledge, and the social dimensions of knowledge. One way of thinking about philosophical issues outside of the classroom is to connect them to other forms of “content” you consume in media. For this unit assignment, you will identify one of these epistemic issues in media and analyze what is being said about knowledge.

Instructions:

  • Reflect on media you have engaged with that speaks to any of the epistemic topics mentioned above.  “Media” can include (but is not limited to): movies, tv shows, music, visual art, performance art, poetry, literature, video games, and potentially memes (if there enough to them).
  • Identify a piece of media that involves one of the above epistemic topics.  The topics can be explicitly mentioned, implicitly referenced, or merely suggested.
  • Write a 500 word mini essay in which you do the following:
    • Briefly explain the piece of media.
    • Link to the piece of media, if at all possible.  This will be easier for music, poetry, some visual art, and literature. If you are referencing a movie, tv show, or something that can’t be linked to, describe how other could find it if they are interested (e.g. “you can watch The Good Place on Hulu).
    • Explain how the media piece is about, mentions, or speaks to the relevant epistemic topic.  Make sure to briefly include an explanation of the epistemic topic.  For example, do not simply state that a movie is about skepticism without explaining what the problem of skepticism is.
    • Analyze what this piece of media is saying about the epistemic topic.  Is it critical of a certain view? Is it endorsing a position? Is it asking us to think about knowledge in a certain way?

 

Describe at least one theoretical orientation you would use to conceptualize your view of the patient’s problem and how it may have developed.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please read Chapters 8, 12, and 13 in DSM 5 Made Easy: The Clinician’s Guide to Diagnosis; Chapter 2 in Turning Points in Dynamic Psychotherapy: Initial Assessment, Boundaries, Money, Disruptions and Suicidal Crises; Chapter 5 in The Psychiatric Interview: Evaluation and Diagnosis; all required articles; and review the PSY645 Fictional Sociocultural Case Studies (Links to an external site.) document.

One of the most important aspects of developing competence in psychopathology is to be as honestly and completely aware as possible of your personal attitudes toward people who have mental health conditions. Through this awareness, we are better able to challenge our own biases and prejudicial views in order to be more open to the findings within scholarly research.

For your initial post in this discussion, choose one of the three case studies from the PSY645 Fictional Sociocultural Case Studies (Links to an external site.) document, and write a detailed description of your uncensored personal observation of the patient depicted. Describe at least one theoretical orientation you would use to conceptualize your view of the patient’s problem and how it may have developed. Identify the issues you might focus on in treatment with this patient. Be sure to identify within your post which of the three case studies you have chosen.

How much, and in what ways, do each of these aspects contribute to personality?

Describe how the brain and various parts may be involved, affected and/or responsible for the resulting impairment/sequelae.

  1. Description (including definition) of sequelae. Academic references required.
  2. Describe how the brain and various parts may be involved, affected and/or responsible for the resulting impairment/sequelae. If this is mental health sequelae (anxiety, depression), explain how an injury to the brain can result in the emergence or exacerbation of symptoms. Link this to existing research regarding brain involvement and injury.
  3. Detail the use of one concept/principle of applied behaviour analysis that could be applied to treat this impairment. Link to academic resources.
  4. Reflect on the stigma that is associated with acquired brain injury. How might someone with an ABI experience discriminatory behaviour from others? What might be some systemic barriers or obstacles for people with ABI?

Write a 1,400- to 1,750-word paper discussing specific interventions you would implement to teach youth and young adults to function better interpersonally and as a parent.

Consider the following statement: “Dysfunctional families create dysfunctional children.”
This situation can lead to an intergenerational cycle of dysfunction as the children of dysfunctional families become adults. Finding ways to improve the maturity and emotional functioning of adolescents and young adults before they marry and have children is an important goal.
Develop a prevention program for reducing codependency in adolescents and young adults.
Write a 1,400- to 1,750-word paper discussing specific interventions you would implement to teach youth and young adults to function better interpersonally and as a parent.
