(This is the 4th paper) Using a Case Study I have created, you will write 4 separate theory application papers. In each paper, you will apply one or more of the course theories that has already been discussed to the client / family in order to assess their current strengths and difficulties. These papers are 3 pages (double spaced) in paragraph format. Title page and references are not included. Note: Do not use headings due to limited page length.
1st paper: Family systems theory
2nd paper: Attachment theory
3rd paper: Neuroscience and Risk and resilience theory
4th paper: Identity theory
In this assignment, students will:
0
o Provide a detailed description of the theory and demonstrate a thorough understanding of its concepts (one peer-reviewed source required).
o Apply the specific components of the theory to the client. Each of these papers should provide an understanding of the case study, so the writer should be “making sense” of the case based in this theory.
o Note: Once you have introduced the theory, it may be helpful to take specific components “one at a time” and apply them to the case study, using case material to illustrate the theory.
o Discuss what questions and insights this perspective would lead you to as a practitioner. For example, would you want to know more about the supports available to the child at various levels (systems theory) or about the nurturing provided to the child in infancy (attachment theory)? Be as specific as possible.
o Briefly discuss implications for interventions based on the theory you are discussing (not specific evidence-based practices).
o Each paper should have at least 1 course for the theory, more as needed.
