PART A:Selected Ed, For Ed:As a way to understand Ed’s adult functioning and the challenges he is facing, apply either Erikson’s OR Levinson’s theory to what you know about his life. In your explanation, define the theory and incorporate literature, as well as evidence from the case material. What signs, if any, do you see in terms of a mental health condition for Ed? Define the particular mental health condition(s) you are considering and discuss the additional information you still need to make a solid assessment. Use a peer-reviewed journal as one reference and the DSM-5 to justify your points, as well as information from the case. PART B: Respond to BOTH of the following two questions. Overall Considerations: 1. In thinking about the ways in which middle-aged adults are caregivers in their families (simultaneously caring for growing children and elderly parents as they age), what role does gender identity, race, and class play in opportunities, perspectives, plans, and/or decisions in care planning? Address either care (to include discipline) of children/adolescents OR caring for aging parents in your consideration of the implications of gender, race, and class on these decisions. 2. Using concepts from the Life Course Perspective, what are the life events and/or transitions, in this couple’s life that are most salient? Are there historical events or societal trends that are having an impact on this family’s functioning? Critique the strengths and limitations of taking a Life Course Perspective to assess and understand human behavior in general and this family in particular. REFERENCES: Use your own words to demonstrate your understanding of the concepts. Please contribute a minimum of one unique reference per question from a peer-reviewed journal to support the answers, with appropriate citations. Additional references from the lectures and textbooks may also be used. References and citations should be in APA 7 style. If you quote, you must use quotation marks and include a citation with a page number for the quote. The references should be new to this assignment and not references used in other classes for other assignments. Please do not repeat case facts or use class PowerPoints as a reference. GRADING: Grading will be based on the accuracy of the answer, the writing style, critical thinking, and the use of appropriate literature to support the answer. See the rubric at the end of this assignment for more details about grading.
