personal reflection about establishing a therapeutic relationship with fluency clients.
Fluency refers to clients dealing with a communication disorder, such as stuttering, which is speech containing monosyllabic whole-word repetitions, part-word repetitions, audible sound prolongations, silent fixations, or blockages. People suffering from fluency disorders have an extremely difficult time communicating with others, which becomes very frustrating and upsetting. These clients know exactly what they want to say, but cannot express their thoughts due to spontaneous disturbances in their normal fluency of speech. People who suffer from the disorder also may get teased or rejected by their peers because of their speech dysfluency, which causes feelings of anger and pain. It is crucial to take the feelings and attitudes of the fluency client into consideration when establishing a therapeutic relationship.

People suffering from fluency disorders are prone to have negative feelings and thoughts due to their speech difficulty. Therefore, as a therapist, it….

BIP
A behavioral intervention plan for a seven-year-old autistic boy is outlined following a functional assessment of behavior. Three target behaviors are identified and recommendations for intervention are made using simple behavioral techniques, visual stimuli, and modeling. The intervention is simple and the functional assessment should continue as an ongoing part of the intervention.

Discussion of the Case

The subject is a seven-year-old (male/female) with a diagnosis of autism currently enrolled in the second grade. Due to behavioral issues a functional assessment of the subject's behavior was completed followed by a behavioral intervention plan. Three target behaviors were identified for intervention following the functional assessment. These target behaviors will be discussed separately. The functional assessment was brief and covered one day of observation and recording. Ideally a longer period of observation would produce a more reliable functional assessment (Vismara & ogers, 2010); however, it was believed that a plan of action should be….

Behavior Intervention Plan for Leonard
The BIP (behavior intervention plans) are the strategy to prevent the behavioral problem among the schoolchildren by addressing their cause. The case of Leonard reveals that he does not perform well in school, and sometimes leave his seat and skip to the back room. Based on his behavior Ms. Allison recommends that Leonard should be evaluated for special education services, however, his parents refuse to sign the consents. Thus, Ms. Allison developed an ABC chart to assist in developing the intervention plan to stop Leonard problem's behavior. The objective of this paper is to develop a behavior intervention plan for Leonard based on the ABC chart.

Identification of Chad's appropriate replacement behavior for Chad's incompatible with alternative to the challenging behavior.

After observing Chad's behaviors, his teacher remarks that Chad displayed opposition and non-compliance behaviors. Moreover, it was revealed that Chad displayed disruptive behaviors, oppositional behaviors, did not perform well in academic tasks, and displayed poor social skills leading to isolation by his peers. The positive plan to challenging behavior is reinforcement. However, appropriate replacement behaviors which is not compatible with challenging behaviors are:

Teacher leaves desk

Teacher tap pencil, and makes repetitive noise with his body

Teacher walks away

However, appropriate replacement behaviors for Chad alternative to his challenging behaviors are:

Small group work

Individual instruction

Whole group instruction

Teacher's attention to group.

evidence-based quality of behavior intervention plans (BIPs) and student outcomes under natural educational conditions," (p. 4). The five components of the research question are all related to the purpose of the study, about the relationship between BIPs and real-world outcomes for students. The high level of specificity makes the research question relevant, and it also relates to the theoretical viewpoints expressed throughout the introduction. Although it is clumsily worded and a bit too verbose, the five-part research question statement does effectively tell the reader how the hypotheses will inform research design. The research questions also emphasize evidence-based practice.
Sampling Technique

Participants were culled from the State of California and involved in the Positive Environments Network of Trainers (PENT), or identified by a PENT member. This does significantly narrow down and restrict the sampling technique, as there are several other organizations through which the researchers might have recruited samples. However, the authors….

Bariatric surgery the proper intervention

The answer is yes. This is because bariatric surgery is the kind of intervention that would be more efficient for weight loss than for options that need non-surgical procedures. For instance, in one big group study, ten years after surgery, weight loss was still evident. Even though patients were getting the conventional treatment, they had still put on body weight. There was evidence that in most cases after surgery, not many individuals have metabolic syndrome. In fact, there….

The following multimodal evaluation procedure is recommended for Carlos: Semi-Structured Clinical Interview

The foremost component of an informal evaluation of traumatized individuals entails semi-structured interviewing, in which the following details of the patient ought to be garnered:

• Demographic facts

• Employment history

• Medical history

• Educational history

• Social history and • Several specific facts.

Such an interview must be closely founded on minor and major trauma disorder facets (James, 2008). Particular questions to be posed to Carlos are linked to:

• Trauma nature and level of exposure

• Definite trauma integral to PTS (post-traumatic stress) symptoms

• Intrusive thoughts, recollections, emotions, imagery, responsiveness/awareness freezing, avoidance response and other similar symptoms

• Related elements of anxiety, depression, drug/alcohol abuse, anger or violent behavior

• Pre-morbid family and social life, and adjustment

• Familial history of psychological ailments. Essentially, therapists must seek comprehensive information on individual PTS symptomatology elements, identifying the nature, seriousness, content, rate, concise explanation and duration of symptoms.

The above-mentioned evaluation….

Topic for intervention plan: Valuing Diversity About the topic
Cultivating a diverse workforce can have great power in a corporation. Diversity can be brought about by a different race, demographic, age, residing locations, culture, or even language. Therefore, diversity is not about these categories but about anything that differences one individual from another. It could be ideas skills, thoughts, knowledge, geography, culture or opinions. An organization can achieve diversity by including the differences among the people in the mix when making critical decisions, generating new ideas and solutions to the challenges they face internally as well as to the external clients’ needs (Sabharwal, 2014). It involves encouraging a variety of opinions, embracing new ideas and the focus on building a culture that fosters innovation through valuing of the existing differences.
Why is valuing diversity an Issue
Research has shown that there lacks significant diversity in the commercial industries. Only a little percentage of companies….

Diabetes and Self-Care Initiative Among High School Students
The onset of modernization, coupled with the globalization process over the last 50 years has seen not just the spread of positive cultures and influences to different parts of the world but also the propagation of some negative health related conditions among them being diabetes. The importation of the western cultures to other regions including remote islands saw the carrying of the Western diets and ways of life some of which have had negative impacts. The fast foods, docile lifestyle perpetuated by the inactive entertainment from electronics have been a major cause of diabetes among the cultures that have adopted the Western cultures. The staggering number of new cases of diabetes among men and women who traditionally did not have such high numbers of diabetes is a cause of alarm. Worse still is the ever increasing number of children with type 1 diabetes….

Realty therapy, which was developed by psychiatrist illiam Glasser during the 1960's, requires those working with a student with emotional disturbance to develop a positive, friendly relationship, especially with those particular students who do not want such a relationship (ong 2004). Realty therapy differs from other psychological models because it urges everyone who works with the student to enter into a counseling relationship with them, not simply the psychologist (ong 2004).

Research on the use of reality therapy for students with emotional disturbance has demonstrated a positive effect on student behavior. According to Glasser, "Counseling is just one human being helping another with a problem. This is not hard to do, if the person with the problem wants to be counseled" (ong 2004). However, students with emotional disturbance may be defensive and resistant to counseling, thus the school psychologist's job is to motivate them to participate in counseling and to persuade….

Utay and Miller (2006) described a study in which researchers observed over 100 individuals with unresolved grief reactions. There were three phases of treatment employed with these individuals. The first stage of treatment involved cognitive structuring for the decision to grieve again and for procedure clarification. The second stage involved guided imagery for reliving, revising, and revisiting the scenes at which the loss occurred. The third and final stage involved future-oriented identity reconstruction. The researchers reported that the reliving of the event through guided imagery effectively changed the client's view of reality, and furthermore helped along their grief resolution (Melges & DeMaso (1980), as cited by Utay & Miller, 2006). Moreover, Guided imagery has been established as a versatile and effective intervention.

The importance in assisting the children's mother with the grief process lies in the fact that bereavement is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality, and it is….

Intervention for the Improvement of Hypoglycemic Control
Diabetes complication is one of the top health problems in the United States, and the ADA (American Diabetes Association) recommends that people suffering from diabetes should control their hypoglycemic and maintain A1C to < 7% to avoid diabetes complications. To achieve this objective, the "diabetes self-management education (DSME)"(Ni coll, aiser, Campbell, ET AL. 2014 p 207) is an effective tool to enhance hypoglycemic control and improve patients' outcomes. The DSME is an on-going educational process to facilitate the skill, knowledge, and ability of patients to carry out a diabetes self-care. I am a diabetic educator working in the diabetic outpatient clinical setting. My experience has made to understand that patients struggle to manage and control their diabetes after being educated because patients are not allowed to set their goals in order to manage their diabetes. (American Diabetes Association; 2013).

Objective of this paper is to….

Special Needs Intervention
Client Profile

Brenda is a seven-year-old second grader that has been identified as dyslexic. She has significant delays in pre-literacy and numeracy skills have been identified through both formal assessment and performance in classroom activities. Work samples demonstrate that Brenda has difficulty sequencing and recognizing word phenomes and putting them together for reading and writing activities. Brenda does not demonstrate the ability to recognize phenomes in words. Brenda frequently reverses letters and/or the whole words when performing literacy tasks.

An interview with Brenda's teacher reveals that other than her problems associated with dyslexia, Brenda's development and functioning is on target with a majority of her peers. She tends to display shyness and introversion when called upon in class to perform activities associated with literacy and numeracy. She is polite and participates actively in class activities. She is a pleasant child and normally social with her classmates. She gets along well….

Organizational Transformation and Intervention at the U.S. Army
Army, like many organizations whose cultures are design to resist and reject change to ensure consistency of structure and clarity of mission, is in need of a transformation and intervention. The vision, mission and objectives of the U.S. Army require a more agile, flexible and modular organizational structure that promotes transformational leadership over transactional management. The cultural constraints however are exceptionally rigid in this organization and transformational leadership the exception rather than the rule. The key constructs of the Burke-Litwin Model however illustrate that transactional leadership is more complex to manage and maintain over the significantly more streamlined transformational leadership structures the researchers have defined (Burke, Litwin, 1992). The intent of this analysis is to show how an intervention plan for the U.S. Army would make the organization more capable of achieving its vision, mission and objectives. The rationale for the intervention is….

They have grandparents who visit them during the holidays. However, for the most part family members deal with their problems as individuals, not as a family unit.
Information provided by the family is an important source of information about the family. However, one cannot ignore outside sources of information as well. For instance, the worker may contact the school, neighbors, or others who are involved with the family to examine factors that may influence the current situation. The assessment plan will involve contacting the school to find out about Conrad's performance in terms of grades, attendance and overall performance.
