Psychology assignment 4010

Discussion1: Research Questions and Literature Reviews   In this week’s video, you meet Eboni Logan, a teenager who reveals that she is pregnant. Eboni explains to her social worker that no one at her school talks about methods of birth control, as their only focus is on abstinence. Imagine that you are a social worker in Eboni’s school and you begin to notice an increase in teen pregnancy. This causes you to wonder about the effectiveness of abstinence-only education. This curiosity propels you to investigate further, but you are not sure what you should do first—develop a research question or conduct a literature review.   For this Discussion, review the literature on abstinence education. View the Sessions episode on the Eboni Logan case.   ·      Post your explanation about what should come first—the development of a research question or a thorough literature review.   ·      Justify your answer by adding your thoughts about which process you believe to be more realistic and/or appropriate, and why.  ·      Finally, describe potential consequences of deciding on a research question without conducting a review of the literature.   Please use the resources to support your answer.   References   Laureate Education Producer).

Nice   job on the 100 meter dash.   EBONY: Oh, thanks. Thanks for seeing me, Ms. Warrick.   MS. WARRICK: So what’s on your mind?   EBONY: I’m pregnant.   MS. WARRICK: Are you sure?   EBONY: Two months.   MS. WARRICK: Oh, Ebony. Why? Did you want to get pregnant? Didn’t you use   protection?   EBONY: Nobody talks about birth control here. All they teach is abstinence. I   made a mistake.   MS. WARRICK: Do you know who the father is?   EBONY: Darion, my boyfriend. We’ve been going together for about four months.   MS. WARRICK: Have you told him?   EBONY: He told me to do whatever I want to do. I know what that means,   though, but he won’t say it. He thinks we’re too young to have a baby. MS. WARRICK: Have you told your family?   EBONY: My mom. She wants me to have an abortion. Says I’ll ruin my life if I   have a baby now. But not my dad. He says it’s god’s choice, not mine. I don’t   know what to think. I’m all mixed up. What do you think I should do?                   Discussion 2: Blog   Refer to the topics covered in this week’s resources and incorporate them into your blog.   Post a blog post that includes:   ·      An explanation of the role of supervision in your field education experience (military mental health clinic)   ·      A description of your field instructor’s leadership style and an explanation of whether the leadership style will promote your agency learning agreement during your field education experience   References      Garthwait, C.
