Problem: I need help with this Psychological Disorders in the Media Assignment Length of Assignment: one page double-spaced, please use Times New Roman size 12 font what is a way to identify a psychological disorder portrayed or clearly displayed within the media or pop culture. This may include a film, television show, book or other written narrative, etc., and may involve a fictional (e.g., character) or nonfictional person or persons (e.g., celebrity). Regardless of which source you choose, the example should portray or clearly suggest the presence of psychological disorder(s). The psychological disorder you pick should be one discussed in class prior to the due date of the assignment. This means you cannot select a psychological disorder that has not yet been discussed in class. In doing so, there are two aims of this assignment to cohesively cover. One, provide a description of the psychological disorder based on course material (e.g., symptoms of disorder, theories of disorder, course of disorder, etc.) (~1 paragraph). Two, describe why you think the persons(s) within the media source has the psychological disorder - that is what features of the disorder do they exhibit. Particularly helpful areas to cover may include temperament (i.e., mood/affect/personality including traits), thoughts, feelings, behaviors, language, interpersonal relationships, family history, life experiences (e.g., stressors and adversities, childhood, etc.), treatment(s) (e.g., medication and therapy), etc. (~1 paragraph). Your writing should be clear and coherent, flowing logically through content and ideas. Importantly you should use a professional tone and inclusive language that conforms to the American Psychological Association s (APA) guidelines for reducing bias and stigmatization of mental illness. Not Okay Language Instead write something like.... The schizophrenic character The character who has schizophrenia They were an alcoholic They struggled with an alcohol addiction The anorexic said The character who experienced anorexia The bipolar character said The character diagnosed with bipolar I disorder You will complete this same assignment three times during the course, and must cover three different psychological disorders from the course, one for each assignment. All writing must be in your own words. It is not required, but, should you decide to use information from any other source, it must be paraphrased in your own words and referenced both in-text and in a References section using APA format. Usage of external sources without citation is academic dishonesty. APA Writing Resource. Need Assignment Help?
