Empowerment Among Children of Substance-Dependent Mothers in Treatment
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing which children of substance-dependent mothers are at greater risk of being bound to following their parent's pattern. Some children of substance-dependent mothers are seen to be at greater demonstrable risk of developing antisocial behaviors associated with co-dependency, while others exhibit apparently no greater risk than children from non-using households. Group sessions provide evidence to children that they are not alone in the trials they face, and empowerment strategies allow children to take some measure of control of their own lives.

Encoding Specificity
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper that presents the experimental findings of two studies on encoding specificity, then designs a third experimental proposal. The experiment proposed looks at the impact of age on encoding specificity and attempts to disprove Salthouse's belief that there is a direct correlation between age-memory decreases and limited encoding specificity. The thesis of this experiment suggests that other factors, including an abundance of prior knowledge, is the cause of what appears to be an age-bias.

Engagement, Resistance And The Therapeutic Alliance In Regards To What Social Workers Do With Clients
[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. One of the most challenging aspects of what social workers do with clients is to initially get them into the office, inasmuch as the engagement process inherently segues into resistance. A particularly good example of this resistance to engagement can be found when clients cancel or completely skip their first meeting because they are wholly unable to bring themselves to address the painful issues surrounding the daughter and baby. As tempted as some social workers might be to concede to the family's request that only some of the members actually show up for the session, to do so is to immediately surrender control as the professional and fail to gain the trust of any absent family members. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Environmental Influences on Cognitive Development in Middle Childhood
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 3 page paper discussing environmental (nurture) influences on cognitive development in middle childhood. Middle childhood, which extends from 6 to 13 years of age, is a highly transitional and productive learning period in regards to cognitive development. Children are cognitively leaving the preoperational stage which is primarily based on the relationships between symbols, language and the environment and enter the concrete operational stage which is concentrated on the concrete and abstract abilities of the child. During middle childhood, research has found that children need an interactive and supportive environment both at school and at home which provides cooperative learning yet allows the child to ask as many questions as needed in order to “mentally manipulate” information.

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP): Treatment Of Attachment Disorders In Children
[ send me this essay ]
8 pages in length. Animals have a unique way of drawing out the best in people; their nonjudgmental, soothing and uplifting qualities make humans gravitate toward them without really knowing why. This inherent affinity is of a particular benefit to those who have mental or emotional problems that prevent them from interacting with others in the conventional way. Using animals as therapy has proven an unprecedented success as a therapeutic tool with, for example, children who have unattached disorders; the emotional connection absent from those who never had the opportunity to develop the parental bond is recreated in such valuable programs as Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) with the horse playing the surrogate role as both mother and father in a completely nonthreatening environment. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
