Describe the difference between classical and operant conditioning

/0 Comments/in /by

First, describe the difference between classical and operant conditioning. Reflect on your own educational experience. Describe examples of classical and operant conditioning that you have experienced. Also, describe outcomes of each.

Classical conditioning involves associating an involuntary response and a stimulus, while operant conditioning is about associating a voluntary behavior and a consequence. In operant conditioning, the learner is also rewarded with incentives,5 while classical conditioning involves no such enticements.

Then, compare positive and negative reinforcement strategies. How is negative reinforcement different than punishment? Refer to the examples you shared in your first paragraph: explain whether they were instances of positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, or punishment. Provide your reasoning and explain how they impacted your learning.

What are the two types of structural neuroimaging?

/0 Comments/in /by
Neuroimaging falls into two broad categories:
  • Structural imaging, which is used to quantify brain structure using e,g, voxel based morphometry.
  • Functional imaging, which is used to study brain function, often using fMRI and other techniques such as PET and MEG (see below).
  • functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) computerized tomography (CT) positron emission tomography (PET) electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG)

The behavioral issues and challenges related to gender and sexuality

/0 Comments/in /by

Consider the behavioral issues and challenges related to gender and sexuality, as well as how they pose particular challenges for children, adolescents, and older adults.

Select a particular population that might be challenged by these issues: Children, adolescents, or older adults. Then for your discussion:

  • Brainstorm at least three unique ways that parents or caregivers might elect to support a child, adolescent, or older adult who presents with a particular issue related to gender, sexuality, or both.
  • Evaluate each of the strategies using at least one piece of peer-reviewed, journal research evidence that supports that approach.
  • Explain what you learned about working with your chosen population in general, as well as in relationship to the issue you chose to research.

Perspectives of Eating Disorders in Men and Boys

/0 Comments/in /by

Peer Response The Journal of Men’s Studies article, "It’s a Touchy Subject": Service Providers’ Perspectives of Eating Disorders in Men and Boys" explores the perceptions and experiences of providers of eating disorder services towards men to understand the challenges and barriers experienced by spoth professionals and patients in addressing the gender bias within this field (Foye, Mycock, et al, 2023).

This small study (n=21) was performed in two phases-first concerns were discussed by participants and from there a secondary analysis was performed on the data. The findings showed that there were three main areas contributing to the barriers in diagnosing and treating men’s eating disorders. First, is that masculinity dictates that men do not seek help. Secondly, the fact that eating disorders are identified as a "woman’s issue." a stereotype held by those suffering and, unfortunately, many service providers. Lastly, there is no place nor protocol for treating men’s eating disorders even if a client is fortunate enough to admit to having a problem, needing help, and finding a provider who acknowledges that men in fact can develop an eating disorder. From this article, I have learned that gender stereotypes can pervade the mental health field-the DSM-V finally removes amenorrhea as a criteria. While men’s eating disorders may present differently from women’s, they still share a commonality. Resources, education, and treatment must be developed for these people. Reference: Foye, U., Mycock, G., & Bartel, H. (2023). "It’s a Touchy Subject": Service Providers’ Perspectives of Eating Disorders in Men and Boys. The Journal of Men’s Studies, O(0). https://doi.org/10.1177/10608265231153087 1, For peer responses, reflect on the implications of your peers’ research review on the relationship level and symbolic meanings for human services.

Economic basis for social (human) development

/0 Comments/in /by

Consider the maquiladoras as an economic basis for social (human) development.  Look at all sides of the maquiladora phenomenon, go through all the pros and cons, look at the multiple perspectives, and then come to a carefully reasoned overall assessment of them. Remember, it is important to demonstrate to me that you understand the concepts and the case material. Do not use chapter 3 for the paper (you’ve already reflected on your main post), but rather discussed from the rest of the chapters. The paper should be several paragraphs and in detail with citations or sorces.

Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development theory

/0 Comments/in /by

Choose one of the stages in Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development theory that you have experienced or are experiencing now. How do you feel about completing this stage? What impact did that difficult time have on your personality?

As a starting point, let’s consider what we know about the stage as a whole. Then, make the connection to one’s own life, explaining how values and experiences relate. Include meaningful words, symbols, and examples. A memorable day in one’s life during that period may be the moment of the climax of a key event or moment.
