With several psychotropic drugs there are issues with suicidal thoughts and tendencies. Does the (ADHD) drug fall into this category, if so does it have a history of creating this problem.

Pharmaceuticals for mental health can either beneficial for you or make you worse. Being a kid or an adult with depression or anxiety can’t alway be easy, especially if you are given a high doses of the meds or are being given the meds when there’s really something physically wrong with you. Being a kid in the foster care or the JD (Juvenile Delinquent) systems isn’t easy but being given the meds for depression and anxiety when it’s not needed is not a good thing.

The method of this research is a qualitative research. Qualitative research isdesigned to reveal a target audience’s range of behaviour and the perceptions that drive it with reference to specific topics or issues. It uses in-depth studies of small groups of people to guide and support the construction of hypotheses. The results of qualitative research are descriptive rather than predictive. (Qualitative Research Consultants Association, 2016).

My Research Project focused on the ways in which the Australian South Sea Islander (ASSI) community reflect the historical events of blackbirding; a topic which I was inspired to investigate this due to my Pacific Islander heritage. Between 1863 and 1904, people were brought to Australia from throughout the Pacific, often through unscrupulous methods like kidnapping, to be used as a source of cheap labour. I investigated the history surrounding the labour trade in Queensland as well as current and past issues faced by ASSI people. Interviews and government publications revealed that the issues of educational attainment and health are prominent issues for the ASSI community. These sources also highlighted

Children are fascinated in technologically designed machines, typically for educational purpose or entertainment and in general learn differently from adults. The central intention of this study is to explore the significance of the use of Human-Computer Interaction principles in digital libraries for children.

The problem addressed in this study is reported in the work of Carusone, Loeb, and Lohfield (2006) entitled "Pneumonia Care and the Nursing Home: A Qualitative Descriptive Study of Resident and Family Member Perspectives". The problem addressed in this study is the fact that nursing home residents are sent to the hospital quite frequently for diagnostic testing and to receive health care services. These transfers are reported as being expensive and to be associated, for some individuals, with an increase in health risks.

This study is a perfect use of prospective study design. The end result is survival of premature babies and this can only be determined by a longitudinal study through follow-up of the participants under study. As noted by the writers, application of a retrospective calculation of sample size shows that the cohort was large enough to detect a difference of 13% in the survival rates of the infants born at 23 weeks in the two periods (Field, Dorling, Manktelow & Draper,

). Undoubtedly, Summerhill School’s provision is debatable and is questioned by many. It is often queried how children aged five are able to know what they need for their future lives, and the simple answer given is, ‘how can anybody know what a five year old needs’ (Vaughan et al, 2006, p. 153). It questions how practitioners can decide what children younger than five need and exhibits the endless possibilities and benefits when the voice of a child is central to practice.

It includes self help techniques that focus on the problems of the individual and symptoms that they experience, it requires structured sessions with a psychologist and it involves confronting emotions. This therapy

Cognitive behavior therapy includes many types of therapy and can be applied in a variety of circumstances. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is most commonly known for use on clients with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, DBT is becoming more popular and often used when working with adolescents. Some adolescents participate in nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI). Counselors find DBT is an effective therapy to help youth acquire the coping skills needed to stop NSSI. A review of DBT, and adolescents suffering with NSSI will better help one to understand why this technique is beneficial.

Assessing children for risk of harming themselves is a difficult task for psychologist, there are a lot of different variables that can affect the outcome. Psychologist can use the Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality to determine how significant the risk is for the child, but there are other questions that need to be incorporated into the assessment. The CAMS Framework uses a Suicide Status Form (SSF) which guides the patient’s treatment. “CAMS is a clinical philosophy that emphasizes collaboration and empathy for the patient’s suicidal state in the pursuit of suicide-specific interventions. CAMS is designed to enhance the therapeutic alliance and increase motivation in the patient in a joint effort to effectively target

The purpose of my research is to evaluate the validity of a language portfolio as a means for fostering self-regulated students using mixed methods design. I want to analyze both quantitative and qualitative data. Mixing the quantitative and qualitative methods allows me to interpret and answer my research question: How does a language portfolio support student growth, student’s autonomy, and self-assessment practice in a world language class?
