Task: Complete the table to cover Assessment Criteria 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 Candidates will complete the table below, giving THREE examples of transitions that affect MOST children and young people and THREE examples of transitions that affect SOME children and young people. With all examples, show how the transition may affect their behaviour and development. Transition experienced by MOST children and young people Example of possible effect on children and young people’s behaviour and development 1. Starting School Starting nursery ,school or even college is a big transition for a child/young person some children are not used to being around other children so may begin to attention seek , throw tantrums or show aggression towards others however starting school can have a positive impact as it can teach a child to be independent. Another example could be a language barrier between the child and their peers making the child feel isolated so all four types of development can affect the child when starting school.
This paper examines Tourette’s syndrome with a focus on the symptoms and causes, the kinds of treatments available for this disorder, and what may be the best treatment method for patients. Tourette’s Syndrome typically onsets during childhood. The most obvious symptoms are the motor and verbal tics, known as coprolalia and copropraxia, respectively referring to the involuntary display of rude words and gestures. “Tics” are defined as repeated and involuntary muscle contractions and sounds. The frequency of the tics is known to fluctuate and include eye blinking, twitching, grunting, and head shaking.
Explain what is meant by the term dysarthria. Dysarthria is a disorder of speech 3. Describe the communication challenges presented to the individual and self by dysphasia and dysarthria. People with dysphasia often have language that is fluent with a normal rhythm and articulation but it is meaningless as they fail to comprehend what they are saying because they have problems word finding. So they can be asking for something but the words mean something else and communication could be difficult when talking to the individual.
Sometimes a different approach to the same problem is all that is required. Stress can bring on a relapse of M.E and it is a fact of life that everyone has stress in their lives. For people who suffer with M.E, it would be very beneficial for them to put in there screeds about how they can handle stress in the future. There are many ways of doing this in someones screed, sometimes even without them realizing
A 6 year old child is extremely vulnerable at this age because too much cortisol can cause permanent damage to the hippocampus thus causing learning and memory disabilities. Berger, also, stressed that young children who are victims of maltreatment and highly stressful experiences may incur damaged limbic systems resulting in physical and mental disorders, poor emotional regulation that may affect health many years later (Quas et al., 2004, p. 797). One of the many signs of a maltreatment is a child is quick, impulsive reactions. The prefrontal cortex or frontal lobe part of the brain is known as the ”executive of the brain” because this is where everything that happens in all other parts of the cortex has to be channeled through for regulation. Even though, the prefrontal cortex’s hierarchy of duties of anticipation, planning, and impulse control reins over all other areas of the cortex, this is the last part of the brain to mature (Berger, 2011 p. 132; 215).
It is common for those suffering from BPD and their families to feel confused by a lack of clear diagnosis, effective treatments and accurate information. It is true that the disorder originates in the families of those who suffer from it, and is closely related to traumatic events during childhood and to PTSD. SIGNS AND SYMTOMS Studies suggest that individuals with BPD tend to experience frequent, strong and Long-lasting states of aversive tension, often triggered by perceived rejection, being alone or perceived
Running Head: THE TREATMENT PROCESS Psychopathology Josh Ettlemen Developmental Psychopathology Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common behavioral disorder that affects many children, adolescents, and adults if continued into adulthood. This disorder affects individuals differently depending on age. Children and adolescents who suffer from ADHD tend to have trouble with sitting still, excessive talking, listening, acting out of turn, being disorganized etc. Adults share some of the same symptoms but also have trouble with low self-esteem, procrastination, concentration, and heightened chances of substance abuse if ADHD is not grown out of or treated properly in their earlier
From all the findings from previous research and the study carried out, it is suggested that there is a correlation between attention and forgetfulness. Introduction Delays of attention are a part of everyone’s life. Some of these are simply inconvenient, such as missing a turn-off on the road, and some of these are extremely serious, such as failures of attention that cause accidents, injury, and loss of life (Robertson, 2003). The relation between mind-wandering and affective dysfunction has been recognised for some time (Watts and Sharrock, 1985). Recent research has raised the prospect that somewhat small everyday lapses of attention can have significant penalties with regard to one’s emotional state, and may even lead to emotional dysfunction.
For example, a child will regress in their development, become accident-prone, become clingy, engage in risky behaviors, and complain more about physical ailments than adults with PTSD do. Often times, traumatized children are wrongly diagnosed as having “attention deficit hyperactivity disorder” (ADHD) because of their trouble sitting still, focusing, or managing their impulses. More times than not, adults with PTSD are also either mistakenly misdiagnosed, or are also diagnosed with other disorders. These include bipolar disorder, eating disorders, and other anxiety disorders like panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, or obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). If symptoms of PTSD are found in these tests, the doctor will begin another evaluation by doing a complete medical history and physical exam.
Different types of trauma include: sexual abuse, physical abuse, acts of terrorism, emotional abuse, psychological maltreatment, accident, illness, domestic violence, natural disasters, man-made disasters, war, school violence, community violence, bullying, separation, divorce, abandonment, death, loss, and grief. Many children experience two or more of these types of trauma in their lives (Roberts, 2011). For example, a child who is bullied at school may also be a witness to domestic violence at home. A child whose parent(s) died at a young age may experience feelings of abandonment and/or
