Psychosocial Clinical Interview
You will go to CONTENTS on Blackboard and select CHAPTER 15 PSYCHOLOGICAL REPORT
CHAPTER and read it. You will also go to https://swapassessment.org/wpcontent/uploads/2013/04/CDI-patient-version.pdf (CLINICAL DIAGNOSTIC INTERVIEW) and
read this as well. You will utilize these resources to structure your Integrated Report for your
simulated client.
You have two choices of who your simulated client would be. You will either work with Will from
the movie GOODWILL HUNTING https://youtu.be/RAgcmfcGD88 or SOPHIE from “In
Treatment” SEASON 1. If you are an Amazon Prime member you can access In Treatment for
free.
You will complete the following sections in your Integrated Report (written in a narrative form and
not bulleted):
Demographic Information (e.g. name, age, date of birth, ethnicity, address, gender, address, etc.)
Conduct the Intake Interview (Structured or Unstructured). This is the opportunity to note general
appearance, demeanor, body language, eye contact, verbalization, tone, inflection, volume, track
train of thought behavior, smooth topic transitioning/halting, etc. The purpose is to form a clinical
impression of the client personality or what problems they may be suffering from. The above
listings provides cues on the types of questions one would ask in the interview. Some answers
will be evident in the movie or episodes, others may warrant a bit of embellishment/inference.
Please take special note of any subtle factors or behaviors that your client may be exhibiting that
they may be both aware or unaware of. So in essence determine the following: Presenting
problem, specific symptoms, detailed history of the problem, social life/family history/life story,
drug/alcohol history, academic history, employment history, medical history, cultural context to
consider, etc.
Determine what assessment(s) you would give. Please provide a rationale/justification for the
assessments that you chose and articulate it within the report.
Summary – Discuss what your overall impressions are (2 short paragraph summary). Diagnosis
should be included in your summary. Please utilize your DSM5.

will go to the file “Treatment Plan Template”. Read the guide named “Tx planning for SUD Guide.
This guide is a slide presentation of how to complete treatment plans. The template has been
provided for you to complete for your client. Please identify 3 most pressing problems that you

Madonnas Global Influence
Madonnas Global Influence
You are required to hand in a 20-page research paper on Madonna. Madonna has been around
so long and so much has been written about her (scholarly and non-scholarly) that there are
many areas to discuss. She will be your frog, your fetal pig, a model of “anatomy” to dissect, a
subject all will work on as a prerequisite to human anatomy and surgery. This paper is not to be a
biography but might include biographical details. Tailor your topic and your research toward your
particular musical / music business interest.
The paper must include a Works Cited page and MLA-style notes. Proper citation is essential in
this course. Begin in the initial stages of your paper (annotated Works Cited page, i.e.,
bibliography, one-page précis) as if the paper is already written or as if it is the first page of a
paper. Never use pronouns “I,” “me,” “you,” “we,” “us” or possessive adjectives for first and
second persons. Never use all-caps, bold font or underline (Time magazine not TIME magazine).
Never use contractions in scholarly writing. If you are quoting a source exactly, “then you’re
permitted to violate injunctions.” Commas and periods go inside “quotation marks.” You must
adjust your sources (like Wikipedia) to reflect this. If your notes are not uniform, complete and
according to MLA (8th edition, in-text citation) style, points will be deducted from your final paper.
All discussion about the paper will take place via Blackboard Collaborate.
Please take your writing seriously, and carefully proofread each submission. For those of you
whose writing skills are not up to college level (and this probably means you), please visit the
Baruch Writing Center periodically throughout this process.
You are about to graduate with an American Bachelor’s degree from a first-tier college, by all
gauges a college that ranks in the top ten percent of US schools (despite the modest “15%”
listed on the college website). I will not tolerate poorly written papers. This paper needs to be
entirely your own work; therefore I will treat plagiarism and suspected plagiarism according to
Also, we will filter the papers through
The paper writing will occur in stages and there will be a series of gates through which you must
pass. Each assignment must be completed and, for your own good, no late stages will be
accepted. Except for the topic, which must be submitted and approved via e-mail, everything
must be handed in at the time assigned in hard copy only (and printed on both
sides of the paper), otherwise, corrections will not be made by me and you risk not receiving
credit for that portion of the paper. Please save all versions corrected by me until you receive
your final grade.
