Biopsychology Personal Statement

Over the weekend I was working in Evolv on a client Biopsychosocial Assessment , and I accidentally used Biopsychosocial Assessment RTF. After realizing my error I corrected it and used the Biopsychosocial Assessment RTF V.2, however there are now two assessments in Evolv for the same client. Can you please assist me with deleting the incorrect assessment.

According to NCBI (2009), “the assessment interview is the beginning of the therapeutic relationship and helps set the tone for treatment”. As suggested by NCBI (2009), “the interviewer should explain the reason for and role of a psychosocial history”. This was a very important in the case of Virginia whom has never received counseling services before. The intern selected the Biopsychosocial Assessment which allowed for incorporating the tool’s questions into an easy conversation, while gathering pertinent info needed to assist the client in future sessions.

This is a developmental and biopsychosocial assessment of a three year old little girl. The assessment is gathering complete information from the Ages and Stages Questionnaires (ASQ) during an interview with the child and parent present. The ASQ evaluates communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving, and personal social development. The assessment includes development and clinical recommendations based upon outcome. The assessment identifies a strength and barrier in the child's life within the three dimensions and how this influences this writers development and clinical recommendations. This assessment discuss how the age of the child potentially influence the child's adaptation to any change or family transition and insight

I was comfortable with the person I interviewed, as it was my grandmother. I consider BT’s strengths to be a driven mindset as well as engaging in physical activity. A huge part to her success is indeed traveling to Arizona 5 months of the year. Instead of sitting in Washington all year round, watching the rain hit the windows, she instead is able to be in the sun. Weather has a huge effect on mood, the aging process, and physical activity. BT is a positive individual, who will always put her best efforts forth to achieve maximum health. BT is stubborn. You tell her she can’t and she will prove to you she can. A while back she had picked up a case of water at Costco. She picked up the case, her feet were planted, and she turned. This blew out

My group’s category was the school aged child. We interviewed a 10 years old girl, named

Pat was isolated during her developmental years. Her social thinking and social influences drove her to adapt to her surroundings and adjust to them. Since, she struggled to walk and she spent most of her time in her crib, and wasn’t able to explore her surroundings at an early age. As she reflected on her developmental history, she realized she was never close to anyone in her family. After, her dad left home, at the age of seven, her siblings also left at the age of sixteen. Her mom worked all the time and was often tired and/or sick. Her social influences were few and the ones she did have were negative. Pat also mentioned how her parents were always fighting, and how her siblings and herself we afraid of them. Throughout her developmental

Lawrence fiddled with a toy while listening to the radio. After the broadcast was over, he softly mumbled something, though he generally kept to himself. I listened closely since his autism typically prevented Lawrence from stringing even two words together. He had recited the entire radio program, virtually word for word, even mimicking the tone of the broadcaster's voice. My jaw dropped. At that moment I knew that I wanted to learn more about Lawrence’s autism condition so that I could help him grow, but I also hoped to dedicate myself to studying the brain both from a physiological and psychological standpoint.

Case studies are an important part of clinical psychology. One can learn about the biological, psychological, and social factors involved by studying patients with certain disorders or illnesses. The case study of Christina Ricci and Karen Carpenter are extraordinary and this analysis will give a brief overview of their case as well as discuss the biological, psychological, and social factors involved. This analysis will also explain the need for adaptation in the field of clinical psychology.

I have always been thrilled by what goes around in people’s minds, but it was at the age of fifteen that I was first attracted to the field of psychology and particularly to clinical psychology. It was mainly because I read my favorite book When Nietzsche Wept by Irvin Yalom. This novel had a personal impact on me, as someone I know was dealing with depression, migraines, insecurities and suicidal tendencies same as happens so in the book’s characters.

For a long time now I have been interested in the field of psychology. The way people behave and why they do certain actions has captivated my attention. As an undergraduate student, I have enjoyed the subject and have been engaged in diverse fields of psychology and studied the Chicano perspective towards psychology. I plan to continue expanding my knowledge and improve my research and counseling skills, as well as study psychology at a higher level.

Between my freshman year of college and now I have really dug into the vast world of psychology. The particular field that I take an interest in is behavioral and forensic psychology. These are the areas that often focus on mental illness patients and those around them. This, in turn, can include their victims in criminal cases.

The biopsychosocial approach recognizes human behavior as the result of interactions of integrated biological, psychological, and social systems (Melchert, 2003). Biological refers to the body’s biochemical, cell, organ, and physiological systems. Psychological deals with the mind and the mental processes, like mood, personality, and behavior. Social factors include, cultural, familial, socioeconomic, medical, education, religion, social welfare and government.

The video begins by showing balls of a variety of colors after being tossed up slightly and beginning to bounce on a graduated blue surface. In the beginning, all the balls, which have a shadow as they bounce, seem to be bouncing in synchrony, are in clear focus, and are roughly the same size. However, as the video progresses, the color of the background continually changes and the shadows have seemingly disappeared. The balls are bouncing any which way, and seem to have spread out. The balls that have gravitated towards the back are blurry and small, while the ones in the front are of an increasingly large size and are in clear focus, so much so, that you can see a reflection off of their surface as they bounce off the camera. At the end of

1. Tasting food is quite enjoyable and it involves a very important biological makeup of our body, specifically the peripheral nervous system; more specifically the somatic nervous system. The section of sensory systems-That’s Tasty rally gave a better explanation of the sense of taste and how it relates to our biopsychology chapter because of taste is a thought. The sense of taste according to washington.edu is gustation. The four basic taste are sweet, sour, salty and bitter, a newly discovered one is umami. The tastes we receive are detected by taste buds which are made up of receptor cells. Receptor cells are on our tongue, however did you know that the facial cranial nerve, glossopharyngeal cranial nerve, and vagus cranial nerve is a contributor in what we taste, it stimulate the tongue nerves to taste,

At the beginning of this semester I thought that I had the field of Psychology entirely figured out. However, I have learned that my knowledge of the field is actually very limited and distorted by many of society's misconceptions. Although, a lot of my viewpoints have changed throughout this semester, my reasoning for choosing the field has not. I still have a thorough fascination of people and their behavior. I have also realized what aspects of the field I like and do not particularly care for. Due to this course I now have a deeper and more extensive understanding of Psychology and the possible career paths I can take.
