As a future in clinical psychology, my focus will be on well being and (positive) mental health outomces in children and adolsecents . Below are some artles that I have chosen throughout the semester as well as in class articles that relate to my area of focus:

ASSIGNMENT DETAILS:
1. Considering the multiple articles you have read during this term and in conjunction with
the 1 or more articles chosen specifically for this assignment, what are the main,
take-away points about well-being within your specific area of focus? Identify at least 3
main points.
2. Why are these points important, especially in terms of understanding or building
well-being? List at least 3 indicators of importance.
3. How does your research relate to one or more of the assigned class articles? Be sure to
demonstrate application, analysis, or evaluation.
After your presentation, please be sure you also address the following:
4. Explain the criteria you utilized to verify the peer-reviewed status of your chosen article
(refer back to Hint from work product 1 if needed).
I strongly encourage you to consider your own areas of interest, personally and in your future
anticipated career, and use this assignment to learn more about something interesting or
important to you! Be sure to demonstrate critical thinking in your work.
NOTE that I strongly encourage you to create a PowerPoint presentation and add verbal
narration to the slides, then convert this to an .mp4 video file (takes quite some time to convert),
then upload your video to YouTube and share the link. However, others have gotten creative with
how to create the presentation. For example, a student presented a PowerPoint presentation in a
Zoom call that they recorded. Another used Prezi, though I won’t be much help if you go that
route as I am not as familiar with it. If you absolutely cannot find another way to make your
presentation, you can submit two separate files – a PowerPoint presentation and an audio file, but
you will need to clearly note when to advance the slides in your narration.
