In this task I'm going to analyse the link between depression and dementia, what impact have it on peoples lives such as quality of life and what is the function of research in this area. As a researchers work to reveal background of dementia disease the most interesting area of research is depression and its connection to dementia.

Depression can be classified as mild, moderate or severe and is often accompanied by symptoms of anxiety or nervousness .

Social Exclusion: People with Mental Health problems Introduction This assignment will be looking into the issue of social exclusion in relation to people with mental health problems. Contributions from relevant academic literature will be brought into the assignment. Mental health will be discussed with references made to the perceptions of people with mental health problems and views of mental health.

Giddens (2006) describes social exclusion as the ‘processes by which individuals may become cut off from full involvement in the wider society’.

Explain the following different sociological approaches to health and ill health and how they apply to health and social care: The functionalist approach; The Marxist Approach; social action approach; The feminist approach You will need to produce a PowerPoint presentation which describes the bases of discrimination.

Topic Three: Abnormal Psychology Critically discuss the problems involved with studying the effects of stressful life events on depression Each research method has its own particular strength and weakness in helping us to understand the nature and causes of abnormal behaviour, specifically, the effects of stressful life events on depression. Because of the personal nature of studying the effects of stressful life events on depression, a series of problems which “compromise our ability to make clear causal inferences about the effects of life events on first onset of major depression” (Kessler 1997) have been observed. These problems relate to both quantitative and qualitative methods of study. The quantitative data method describe, for example, longitudinal and cross sectional surveys while qualitative methods interpret, using, for example, group discussions, in-depth interviews and case studies. The following paper will critically discuss examples of both quantitative and qualitative methods and their positive and negative features which create problems for researchers studying the effects of stressful life events.
