Assignment Description For this assignment, you will draw on the work you did in previous assignments and integrate all you have learned into a clear and concise application of your chosen developmental and human behavior theories to your chosen character and case study, which you have used in the Weeks 3 and 5 assignments. You should also review any feedback you received on your previous assignments and incorporate relevant feedback into your approach for developing this assignment. As with all assignments, it is vital to support the application of your chosen theory with scholarly research in the Capella library.
The following resources may be useful as you research and write your assignment: Social Work Bachelor’s Program Library Guide Links to an external site.. Evidence and APA Links to an external site.. Writing Center Links to an external site.. Assignment Instructions To begin this assignment, make sure you once again introduce your chosen character from your chosen case study. Additionally, describe the presenting problem you have been focusing on over the course of the your previous assignments. Make sure that you are introducing your chosen character and provide an explanation of their presenting problem from your chosen case study. The bullet points below correspond to grading criteria in the rubric. You may also want to read the rubric to better understand the performance levels that relate to each grading criterion. For this assignment, complete the following:
Explain key components of a chosen human behavior theory to apply to the assessment, intervention, and evaluation of the chosen case study.
Examples of human behavior theory include psychoanalytic, behavioral, cognitive, person-centered, feminist, et cetera. Explain why the theory is selected for your chosen case study by describing at least one implication of the theory as it relates to human behavior and development. Make sure you cite appropriate and relevant scholarly and professional resources to support your explanation. Assess the chosen character from a developmental and person-in-environment perspectives. Explain at least one theory about childhood development that applies to the case. Examples of developmental theories include Piaget, Vygotsky, Erikson, et cetera. Apply a person-in-environment perspective.
What systems provide the client support? What systems may be hindering the client? Systems to consider include family, friends, work, social services, politics, religion, goods and services, and educational systems. Include your chosen character’s intersectionality in your assessment. Assess your chosen character’s strengths and limitations. Develop an intervention based on a selected human behavior theory that is relevant to a chosen character.
Examples of human behavior theory include psychoanalytic, behavioral, cognitive, person-centered, feminist, et cetera. Note the relevance of the intervention to your chosen character from your chosen case study. Discuss two short-term and two long-term goals for the client by applying systems theory to contextualize the appropriateness of your chosen intervention. Consider the diversity in the intervention plan. Make sure you cite appropriate and relevant scholarly and professional resources to support your intervention.
Evaluate a chosen human behavior theory within the context of a chosen character and case study. Evaluate the strengths and limitations of the human behavior theory you selected. Compare this to another human behavior theory and note your rationale for choosing the theory you did. Evaluate the cultural competence of the human behavior theory. Evaluate your chosen theory’s relevance to your chosen character within the context of the case study.
Explain the value of chosen theories within the context of personal social work practice. Note how the theories you evaluated in this assignment guide social work practice when engaging with individuals and families. Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with expectations for members of the social work profession.
