PAPER TOPIC

Both Nietzsche and Freud present a psychology of the individual along with an understanding of the relation of the individual to society. Examine a few key ideas that show Freud’s understanding of the mind and his understanding of the relation of the individual to society relying on Introductory Lectures On Psychoanalysis and Civilization and Its Discontents. Do the same with Nietzsche with reference to a maximum of three aphorisms from The Gay Science. Establish a conclusion that presents an integration of both authors in an understanding of how the relation of mind and social order leads to a critique of society.

Further clarification:
– rely on a few key sections from Freud and no more than three aphorisms from Nietzsche
– maintain a focus throughout the paper on the understanding of mind and social order.
– again, no use of any other sources in the paper
– as in the first essay, there is no “right” selection of material from the texts, but some ideas are more useful than
others for this topic
-develop a clear thesis/argument in the paper, do not just summarize Freud’s and Nietzsche’s ideas

Recommended Steps to Follow:

STEP 1: Develop research topic→research question→research hypothesis.

STEP 2: Begin literature review using reliable resources (the same action you take to complete a research paper in other classes). Reliable resources can include books (not textbooks), journal articles, and other dependable sources (not Wikipedi).

STEP 3: Prepare your survey and interview questions. Determine how & what you will view as your observation. Explain how this will all be done; this will be your methodology section of your project.

STEP 4: Conduct survey. Conduct interviews. Conduct observation.

STEP 5: Compile and write up your findings. This will be the observations & findings sections.

STEP 6: Determine if you can answer your research question with the data you gathered. Are they what you expected? Did you have findings that surprised you? This will be the discussion & conclusion section.

STEP 5: Type & Proofread: begin typing ASAP; do not wait until the night before to start.

STEP 6: Submit the Paper on Time on MOODLE: All papers must be submitted to me by the date and time listed above; if not, point loss (10%/day) as mentioned in the syllabus begins. There will be a drop box opened on Moodle for you to submit…You also must submit a hard copy on the day it is due.

 

Other Notes:

 Can use textbooks & Wikipedia only as a guide to other resources

 Depending on your topic, you may not be able to perform a real observation (e.g. Death penalty)…instead we will use a ‘quasi’ approach. For instance, you can watch a video on capital punishment. Or, say you cannot conduct interviews with child protection agents; instead, your classmates will play the role of the agents. It may not be the real thing, but it will at least give you a look into how these procedures are conducted.

 APA…100% required

 TurnItIn.com will be used so please (for your sake) do not copy

 Early submission of papers is welcomed and preferred, but not required

 Late submission means delayed grading

Duty to Report, Warn, and Protect

Counselors sometimes face tough decisions for which there is not always a clear answer. Consider, for example, a case in which a client reports that he or she has intentions to harm another person. What course of action should the counselor take? Should the counselor warn the potential victim and ignore the principle of counselor-client confidentiality?

In cases such as this, it is imperative that counselors refer to the ACA Code of Ethics as well as to state laws, regulations, and statutes. If ethical guidelines are unclear, or if state laws, regulations, or statutes do not address the issue, counselors should consult with knowledgeable colleagues in order to make an ethically and legally sound decision.

In this paper, you will review a case study and explain the course of action you might take as a counselor to report, warn, and/or protect, based on the ACA Code of Ethics and your own state’s laws, regulations, and/or statutes.

Review the article, “Tarasoff and the Duty to Protect.” Think about the various legal cases discussed and how the outcomes of these cases may inform your practice as a counselor.

• Review the ACA Code of Ethics and consider the guidelines related to the duty to protect clients and others from harm.

Write an explanation of how you might respond to the situation presented in the case study you selected. Justify your response by citing specific ethical guidelines and state laws, regulations, and/or statutes associated with the duty to report, warn, and/or protect.

IMPORTANT: In addition to the Tarasoff article, I am also sending you a document that has comments made by other students and professors regarding this very case study. Please read them and follow the same decision they made, just word it differently. Also, be sure to make specific references to the ACA Code of Ethics.

Each essay will be a description of a personal experience (or an observation you made of someone else) that illustrates or exemplifies one of the social psychology phenomena covered in the chapters. Each essay is to be typed and double-spaced, use a 12-point font, and have one-inch margins. Be sure to include the specific chapter and page number where the concept you discuss is explained in the text. Two separate essays are required.
