Chapter 4 Application Response Directions

(25 Points)

Make sure that you read the \ Case History Ken Chapter 4 Application Response PSY 281 Online\” also attached to this assignment. As you read about Ken make sure that you are noting any evidence/symptoms that would lead you to suspect a specific disorder.

Tell me the specific disorder that you would diagnose given the evidence from the case history. Use the ACTUAL DIAGNOSIS FROM THE DSM-5.
Next, you are going to explain your rationale for giving the diagnosis you have decided best represents Ken’s experiences. This is the part of your paper where you will be VERY SPECIFIC in taking evidence from the case history and applying it to the actual criteria of your diagnosis. This will show me that you understand how the criteria for the disorder were met, and subsequently could actually then make the diagnosis. Even if you think you are being too redundant, or too specific, or too boring, explain your rationale for each criterion being met. Go into great depth proving each criterion with as much evidence as you have noted from the case history.
Write this paper as if your audience is someone who has never even heard of the disorder you are writing about. Many students tend to leave out important detail because they believe I (Mr. Schulte a trained counselor) am their audience. Sometimes thinking, “oh, well that is obvious to Mr. Schulte, I don’t need to go into that much detail.” Don’t do that in your paper. Go step by step explaining your reasons/evidence for why each criterion has been met.
Make sure you are covering all aspects of the disorder’s diagnostic criteria, if there are other criteria from other parts of the DSM that are necessary, you should add those.

As always, be sure to type this assignment, double space, using 12 point normal font and 1 inch margins.
