A 16 page paper discussing some of the problems that a workplace manager may face when an employee is suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The paper reviews PTSD, how it can affect individuals and the difficulty in dealing with it. Commonly associated with wartime experiences, PTSD also can arise from workplace incidents, natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina and traumatic events such as the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The manager dealing with employees suffering from PTSD can use situational leadership or contingency theory to create a framework within which to manage the PTSD sufferer. Employing either of these theories and operating within them enables the manager to create a win-win scenario in which the individual gains help, support and validation, while the organization gains real value from the employee's contributions.

MAOA and Conduct Disorder
[ send me this essay ]
A 10 page research paper that examines the links between MAOA, as a genetic factor, and the development of conduct disorder. There is a large body of empirical research that connects the development of conduct disorder to childhood maltreatment (Fergusson, Boden and Horwood, 2008; Jaffee, et al, 2004). However, a continuing debate addresses the question as to whether or not conduct disorder is a psychopathology or the consequence of abusive and/or neglectful parents. A recent and growing body of evidence indicates that the causes of conduct disorder are multifaceted, as there is evidence that indicates a genetic predisposition to conduct disorder, particularly in regards to MAOA activity studies. Bibliography lists 15 source.
