...Case study of Jane Michelle M. Smith Rasmussen College Author Note This paper is being submitted on October 12, 2013, for Carol Knight‘s G148 General Psychology. Case study of Jane Jane grew up in a home with an abusive father. Jane tried everything in her power to make her father happy. She tried very hard to do everything just right. As a result of never being good enough Jane developed very low self-esteem and grew to believe that love meant abuse and fear. When he was no longer able to control her with physical abuse he began controlling her with money. He started buying her everything she wanted. In adulthood she continues this pattern with her father until she marries a man that she is finally able to manipulate into buying her new clothes as an apology for hitting her after her challenging him. Then as another form of manipulation she agrees to become pregnant with his baby. The pattern of abuse on both parties (Jane and her husbands) is going to continue until they get the help they need. Sadly enough this pattern will be passed onto their child as he or she grows. In order for there to be turn change both Jane and her husband need to receive proper treatment. Jane has learned to manipulate the men in her life out of a need for love and feeling needed. The men in her life also need assistance to know you cannot control woman either by abuse or by giving them everything they need/want financially. The saying you can’t buy love is true. I believe...

...A Case Study-Jane A Case Study-Jane The description of the story was that Jane was constantly beaten from her father as a child. She was very confused as there was no explanation as to why he was beating on her. She was beat on by her husband 3 years into their marriage. The explanation of Jane’s beatings from her father was that she was being “naughty”. As for her husband he beat her for “challenging him”. This wasn't an acceptable behavior from either her father or her husband. The prediction in Jane’s life was that she would accept the beatings by in some way gaining a little control as well. She was able to guilt her father to get whatever she wanted from her father. She was able to gain power over her dad by making him know when he was wrong since he couldn't stand to be wrong. Her husband begs for forgiveness and he also feels guilty. She uses that as to gain control to make him give her what she wants. So he takes her shopping for whatever she wants. The change in Jane’s life was her trying to gain some type of control over the situations. She was able to do so but I don’t think that was a happy life to live. Jane and her husband were able to agree on having a baby after all the abuse he caused on to her. She got pregnant and that was a big a change for her. I chose psycho-dynamic as a modern perspective of psychology. It was Jane’s father who started the abuse when she was a child. If Jane didn't experience her childhood abuse from her father she wouldn't...

...Page 327 1. For starter, Jane should arrive at least an hour, not a half an hour, before her shift that way she has more time to deal with these problems. Next she should call other employees and see if she can get someone to come in and work the cashier and the dish washer positions. After she tries calling, then she should look at the employees she has scheduled to work and see if any of them are cross trained to work cashier. If not, she should be cross trained in that area and will have to work the cashier position. Dishwashing is not as complicated as cashiering can be therefore, other employees and even Jane herself could be able to help with the dishes during the break before they start to serve lunch. 2. She should try to save the food to the best of her ability by moving the items to another refrigerator while the non-working one is being fixed. If they have to keep food in that refrigerator they should try to not open the refrigerator door as much in order to keep the coldness inside. When transferring and saving the food she should prioritize the food in order of what she needs to use first and what she needs to use that day. If the food is measured above the 40 degree safety then unfortunately it should be discarded. Food in unsafe temperatures can create food born illnesses and will get the students sick. 3. Concerning the ice shortage she should first check for other sources of ice that may be on campus. If she can’t find any ice on campus then she...

...through the case study of Jane, answer the following questions in a 1-2 page paper: 1. Examine the situation presented in the case study by using the four goals of psychology. psychologists have four basic goals: to describe, explain, predict, and change behavior and mental processes Description Description tells “what” occurred. In some studies, psychologists attempt to describe , or name and classify, particular behaviors by making careful scientific observations. Description is usually the first step in understanding behavior. For exam- ple, if someone says, “Boys are more aggressive than girls,” what does that mean? The speaker’s definition of aggression may differ from yours. Science requires specificity. 2. Choose three of the modern perspectives of psychology and address how each would study the behaviors found in the case study. Submit your completed assignment to the drop box below. Please check the Course Calendar for specific due dates. Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document. (Mac users, please remember to append the ".docx" extension to the filename.)

...factors might influence an individual’s defense mechanisms? Use examples from the case studies to illustrate your answer. Individuals who have experienced trauma develop their own defense mechanisms to cope with the intrusive recollections and increased physiological arousal. When people suffer trauma their choice of defense can be influenced by three factors, • Developmental stage • Temperamental factors • Contextual factors. Below I will use the case studies of Jane & Brendan to illustrate how these factors influenced their defense mechanisms to trauma. Jane experienced the death of her sister at age 7, her developmental stage influenced the type of defense mechanisms she used to cope with the trauma of witnessing her sister’s death. Jane blamed herself for the accident. Prior to the traumatic incident Jane was described as being a “happy – go – lucky child”, however during the following years she lost interest at school and acted out to receive attention, making up stories & fake accidents, including a fake suicide. Jane’s defense mechanism in this example is role playing through fantasy, this involves Jane creating an inner world when her world became too painful, difficult or stressful. Between the ages of 12 – 18 Jane began experimenting with alcohol and drugs, using them as a defense. Contextual factors primarily her friends, influenced Jane’s use of alcohol & drugs. The case study sites Jane began taking drugs at 13 with friends, at 14 she first tried heroin with an...

...Question I Assigning fault in this case is difficult because all the facts are not presented; there are so many details and questions that are left unanswered to make a justified decision as to who really is at fault in this case. That being said I would not place fault to anyone in this case, however everyone involved in this case has some shared responsibility to the patients care. During report Jane is told that the patient fell without injury around lunch time but has had an uneventful evening. At my current place of work VA Hospital there is a Fall Prevention Program with a Post Fall Management Protocol in place, these are measures that are to be implemented after a fall by nursing, and multidisciplinary team members they are; assess for injuries and determine level of injuries, assess vital signs, including sitting/standing blood pressure and pulse, If diabetic, check blood glucose, notify physician/medical provider, The provider of or on-call physician will assess patient within one hour, provide care, order any needed diagnostic tests, medications, etc., complete a Report of Fall Incident Note and document circumstances of fall in medical record, notify all team members of the patient’s fall, complete Fall Risk assessment and implement high risk fall interventions, if indicated.

...Case Study: Jensen Shoes: KravitzsJane This paper is about analyzing the case of “Jensen Shoes: Jane Kravitzs”, and it focuses on one very important thing that almost all essays that are done on this Case Study fail to mention. The case “Jensen Shoes: Jane Kravitzs” has one specific thing, which is stating that the story was told from memory by Jane Kravitz. This is very important information and because of this, we can assume that the story may not be 100 percent accurate, and may also contain a slight bias since we are only given Jane’s perspective. As will be pointed out in the following section, each individual’s perception will have a major influence on the attitudes and behaviors exhibited throughout this case. The problem begins when Chuck Taylor, who is the Director of Strategic Marketing, provides negative information to Jane about one of her new staff members Lyndon Brooks by stating that he had not received very good performance reviews over the last three years that he had been with the company. Despite the fact Jane had worked with Lyndon in the past claiming that he was a very charming African-American businessman who had a way about him that suggested he could be a star if given the right situation and motivation, Chuck’s negative comments about Lyndon influence her thought process regarding Lyndon stability to perform well and meet expectations. This corresponds to the social information processing model; in which ³people adopt attitudes and behaviors in...

...HE0930A CASE STUDY | 1104964 | Jane Smith aged 16 years, was diagnosed with diabetes aged 7. Last month, whilst attending the practice nurse’s diabetes review clinic Jane expresses concerns that over the past few weeks her blood sugar readings have been elevated. She does not want to increase the dosage of her twice daily insulin regime as she is worried that this will cause her to gain weight. 1. What is meant by the terms anticipatory care, self care and self management? (15%) 2. Critically discuss why current Scottish health policy is actively promoting the self care and self management of long-term conditions. (25%) 3. Critically discuss the practice nurse’s role in supporting Jane to self- manage her long term condition (60%). A long term condition (LTC) can be defined as a prolonged health issue that never goes away and is very rarely cured (Magerson and Trenoweth 2010). These conditions require different degrees of on-going care and support tailored to the individual (Scottish Executive 2009). The government has realised that effective management of these LTC’s is one of the biggest challenges that healthcare faces (McVeigh 2009). This essay will focus on the above case study, defining anticipatory care, self-care and self-management, and analyse and explore current Scottish health policy in relation to self-management and self-care. A fundamental part of this essay will discuss the nurses’ role in supporting Jane to self-manage her diabetes. ...

When deciding on what client to present as a case study, the following attributes were considered.

Cognitive and behavioral therapies, herein referred to as CBT, are considered to be the most effective and empirically supported psychosocial interventions for anxiety disorders (Hofmann and Smits, 2008).
