Countering Age-Related Stereotypes

Countering Age-Related Stereotypes

Many people fear and dread the late adulthood stage of life because they believe what awaits them is ill health and cognitive decline. While that description fits some adults in later life, it certainly does not describe them all. Many older adults lead healthy, active lives and are closely connected to their families and communities. However, stereotypes related to aging are extremely prevalent in our culture and strongly influence our attitudes toward aging. Use your textbook and the Argosy University online library resources to research age-related stereotypes.

Read about one of the largest centenarian studies conducted in the U.S. at the following Web site:

  • The University of Georgia Institute of Gerontology, College of Public Health. Georgia Centenarian Study. Retrieved from http://www.thecampuscommon.com/library/ezproxy/ticketdemocs.asp?sch=auo&turl=http://journals.sagepub.com.libproxy.edmc.edu/doi/pdf/10.2190/8M7H-CJL7-6K5T-UMFV

Create a chart evaluating three age-related stereotypes listing evidence that supports the stereotype (if it exists) and evidence that contradicts the stereotype. Be sure to include references for each stereotype. Present the information in a chart as shown:

Stereotype

Evidence in Support of Stereotype

Evidence that Contradicts Stereotype

1.

2.

3.

Based on your readings and research, describe at least one strategy for creating more positive views of aging in our culture.

Write a 1–2-page paper in Word format and include your chart. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

HOW DOES COGNITIVE DISSONANCE AFFECT REASONING ABILITIES?

HOW DOES COGNITIVE DISSONANCE AFFECT REASONING ABILITIES?

Unit V Essay
Wade and Tavris explain that various factors combine to influence one’s thinking patterns, intelligence, and memories. In fact, we often embrace certain biases and mental shortcuts to assist our cognitive processing. These efforts can prove both costly and beneficial. This assignment is divided into parts, so it is suggested that you begin working on it in advance. PSY 1010, General Psychology 3
Find a popular press article or story from the nightly news in which someone argues a point that you disagree with. Write a paragraph agreeing with this person. Allow one day before moving on to the next part. Make sure at least one day has passed since writing the first paragraph. Now, write another paragraph disagreeing with the person. You will include both of these paragraphs in your essay. Discuss the differences between your arguments from the first paragraph in which you agree and the second paragraph in which you disagree. Elaborate on whether you think that your opinion has changed on this topic, particularly thinking about your initial thoughts on the topic before you wrote either paragraph. In your discussion, incorporate research from the textbook to explain how reasoning, intelligence, and memories influenced your arguments. How did cognitive dissonance affect your reasoning abilities? Your response should be at least two pages in length, but it can be longer if necessary to address all aspects of the assignment. You must use the textbook and at least one additional source. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations. If you need further help with your essay, you should consult with the Writing Center staff, allowing enough time to receive guidance and feedback. You can email the Writing Center at teamsucceed@columbiasouthern.edu.

Money rules everything is one of the quotes that some companies stand by.  There is evidence to suggest that money does change decisions, and lots of money does alter the future for these companies. However, companies try to incorporate decisions not only using money but also using customer feedback. Some of that customer feedback can ultimately aid in gaming more money. Companies’ goals are to try to make money to provide more for the customers and pay employees. In the healthcare system hospitals, doctors offices, and pharmacies all have to make money to pay employees and keep providing customers/ patient with excellent service. Some of these institutions are for-profit and some are nonprofit. These institutions still need to have some sort of cash flow in order to work. The biggest economic impact on these healthcare institutions are insurance companies. Insurance companies are the driving force of how these institutions get paid for the most part. However, with insurances there is a huge disparity on who has insurance and who can afford insurance. That is why universal healthcare is at the forefront of all economic conversations specifically here in the United States of America. Universal healthcare can allow all citizens of the US to be seen by a doctor and thus maintaining or bettering their health. Nevertheless, universal healthcare comes at a great economic cost. With the longer life span of Americans and the constant spending on health promoting products the United States spends almost 3 trillion dollars yearly on healthcare (Blais & Hayes, 2015). If universal healthcare were to be provided then the United States economy would be affected. That is why it is such hot and heavy economic and social issue. Most healthcare workers take oath to providing some sort of betterment two societies health overall. It is important that healthcare be delivered to everyone no matter the circumstances so that the oath can be upheld. With this in mind economics cannot be separated. Currently almost half of healthcare spending is used to just treat 5% of the population in the United States (Boudreau, 2017). In addition, healthcare costs are rising almost 2% every year (Boudreau, 2017).  All things considered, it is important to start planned out the future of healthcare and healthcare economics. Universal Health Care is definitely an option on the table that can allow the US population and its citizens to receive healthcare no matter what. A plan however needs to be in place so that economic disaster does not overwhelmed the country. Additionally to the economics of universal healthcare, the delivery of healthcare to all the newfound people is another hurdle (Blais & Hayes, 2015). Hospitals and other facilities need to be prepared to deal with the vast influx of people seeking healthcare treatment once universal healthcare is adapted. By hundreds of thousands of people gaining healthcare and them coming into the system it can bombard and potentially crippled the healthcare system. Regardless of the new influx of individuals within the system the type of health received should always be universal. No matter what economic factors might come into play the delivery of the services should never be questioned. Every patient should get the same attention, treatment and procedures no matter what is in place.

hat does logical positivism suggest to us about constructivist-based theories? Do you agree or disagree?

/in /by

Constructivism
 
Prior to engaging in this discussion, please read chapters five and  six in your e-book and review the Instructor Guidance. You will discuss the theory of constructivism and its  relationship to learning.

  • Constructivists suggest that a person’s reality is unique from  others and thus, effects what, how, and how effective knowledge is  acquired. This is suggested to be affected by numerous variables such as  culture, past experiences, and past knowledge.

Consider the following as you discuss:

  • What does logical positivism suggest to us about constructivist-based theories? Do you agree or disagree?
  • How do exogenous constructivism, endogenous constructivism, and dialectical constructivism differ and why does it matter?
  • How does situated cognition (discussed in Week 3) support the suggestions made by constructivism?
  • Discuss a personal experience where you feel constructivism  ideologies explained either the effectiveness of, or the  non-effectiveness of, the learning experience. Would you consider this  learning experience exploratory learning, inquiry learning, or  problem-based learning? Why?
  • What implications in learning effectiveness might exist if construction of individualized knowledge is negated?
