There are many kinds of research that has been shown to be effective with criminal offenders for correctional treatment. One such treatment is group counseling which is the one that most mental health professionals use and usually have anywhere between eight and ten prisoners and will have meetings many times per week. With group counseling it approaches behavioral and psychological contentions that interpose in many disorders and demeanors, for instance, substance abuse by advocating behavioral adjustment by means of communications with other people who also cope with the same contentions (Kupchik, 2007). Another treatment that is used is specialized groups which accommodates substance abuse, anger management, parenting, and many other kinds of issues. They have specialized groups for offenders that have inclusive concerns, for instance, anger management groups.…

The narrative of these assistantships begins with the Interpersonal Relationships Laboratory, where I collected data for my Honor’s thesis.…

In the past few years, there has been a somewhat steady movement against vaccines. Why, you ask? It seems that some blame the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine as being a factor for autism, despite the lack of scientific evidence. "There is no link between vaccines and autism," The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on their webpage about vaccine safety. " Vaccine ingredients do not cause autism."…
Spanking When your child becomes a terror and you have no way to control them, should you consider spanking them? You have tried everything from timeouts to taking the things they enjoy away and nothing is working. Can spanking a child have lasting effects on a child well into adulthood?

Hazing is an activity that should not be tolerated or applauded. Fraternities and sororities still encourage this harmful and humiliating initiation. Organizations use hazing to break down their incoming members mentally, physically, and emotionally. Under no circumstance should hazing be conducted or performed. More action needs to be taken against organizations that authorize these rituals because no group should have the power to control their peers with humiliation and violence.…
Corporal Punishment: “Physical punishment, as spanking, inflicted on a child by an adult in authority” (Merriam Webster, 2016). When you think of corporal punishment, what comes to mind?

Whereas, other individuals believe corporal punishment is a form of discipline.…
Introduction In today’s schools we are identifying more “at-risk” students who need more additional support to achieve success in school. These students are emotionally, physically, socially, and academically trying to survive daily. Some lack outside support from family due to their home situation or not having anyone to help them with school work. Mentoring students can provide that bond and trust between teacher and student that can help a child succeed and provide a constant adult in the child’s life.…
Topic I decided to research student motivation for my topic for this assignment. I am a program director and teacher of polysomnography at a private career college in Michigan. It seems over the last year that my students’ motivation to learn has declined. The excitement and enthusiasm did not exist with my 2015 cohort as compared to my 2014 cohort. Looking at this problem objectively, I compared the grades, assignment completions, discussion board, blog, and journal participation rates of both cohorts.…
I have always had a longing to be in a career which helps and cares for people. When exploring careers in middle school, I quickly found out I do not have the stomach to be a doctor, nurse or anything which had to do with blood or needles. So I was stuck with the question, what now? I wish I could say I have always longed to be a Speech-Language Pathologists but that would be a lie. Honestly, I had never heard of an SLP until my baby sister, Sienna, had been referred to one.…
