Analyze how damage to the right hemisphere can have an impact on language and cause pragmatic impairments
The essay will be about pragmatic language impairments. In particular as a result of damage to the RIGHT
hemisphere (NOT the LEFT hemisphere). You can certainly start off in the Introduction by mentioning the
theory of lateralisation (that is how right and left hemisphere have supposedly different functions). You can also
explain that there is a lot of research about language impairments when the left hemisphere is damaged (the left
hemisphere is considered the site of language), but there is not as much about RIGHT hemisphere which is the
focus of the essay. Explain the role of the right hemisphere with regards to pragmatic functions. Remember that
this is an essay for a module in Neurolinguistics. Therefore, the focus has to be on the linguistic aspect, anything
that is related to language (ignore things like difficulty in understanding people’s facial expressions or changes in
behaviour due to right hemisphere damage). You only have to analyse the effects on different aspects of
language such as
- Speech acts (a threat, joke, promise).
• Register (may be overly informal).
• Initiating, terminating, turn-taking in
conversational exchanges.
• Providing sufficient information for
communicative intention (relevance).
• Adequate or appropriate prosody/tone.
• Coherence of discourse topic, maintenance and
shift
I am attaching a file called “Pragmatic impairments” which is a set of slides by Marjorie Lorch. Those slides are
the actual class I had in this topic. Please, read to get an idea on how to structure the essay and which topics to
cover and DO NOT USE IT AS A REFERENCE. I am also attaching 15 other sources but I will need a total of
23-25. Ideally the sources will have to be within the last 5-7 years (10 years maximum) and preferably from my
University digital catalogue (I will give you the login as such as a writer has been assigned).
The idea of the essay is to analyse how damage to the right hemisphere can have an impact on language and
cause pragmatic impairments

I WILL DO THE VIDEO
State 3–4 objectives for the presentation that are targeted, clear, use appropriate verbs from Bloom’s taxonomy,
and address what the audience will know or be able to do after viewing.
Present the full complex case study. Include chief complaint; history of present illness; any pertinent past
psychiatric, substance use, medical, social, family history; most recent mental status exam; current psychiatric
diagnosis including differentials that were ruled out; and plan for treatment and management.
Report normal diagnostic results as the name of the test and “normal” (rather than specific value). Abnormal
results should be reported as a specific value.
Pose three questions or discussion prompts, based on your presentation, that your colleagues can respond to after
viewing your video.
Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive
your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms
impacting their functioning in life?
Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
Assessment: Discuss their mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a
minimum of 3 possible diagnoses and why you chose them. List them from highest priority to lowest priority.
What was your primary diagnosis, and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with DSM-5
diagnostic criteria and is supported by the patient’s symptoms.
Plan: What was your plan for psychotherapy (include one health promotion activity and patient education)?
What was your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include pharmacologic and
nonpharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this

are able to follow up with your patient, explain whether these interventions were successful and why or why not.
If you were not able to conduct a follow-up, discuss what your next intervention would be

Think about whether child sexual offending is a compulsion, something that the individual cannot control, or is it a behaviour, which is perhaps more susceptible to change?
Structuring suggestions for your SAVC summative assignment 2021-22
| “There [is] an ongoing controversy as to whether sex offending against children is a pathology- a stable and deviant disposition, or a form of criminality-a general antisocial, exploitative style of personal interaction” (Canter et al 1998, p532-533). Critically discuss and consider the influence of theoretical ideas/explanations of sexual offending on policy and practice.This title requires you to think about whether child sexual offending is a compulsion, something that the individual cannot control, or is it a behaviour, which is perhaps more susceptible to change? What are the implications of thinking about child sexual offending in these different ways when it comes to addressing this form of offending? Introduction – Demonstrate your understanding of the core task and the different aspects of the debate, define key terms. Highlight Canter et al’s argument in more detail. Choose 1-2 theoretical criminological explanations of child sexual offending which would support the idea that it is innate and a compulsion and critically evaluate these explanations. Choose 1-2 theoretical criminological explanations of child sexual offending which would support the idea that child sexual offend is a form of criminality that has developed and which may in the future be susceptible to change. Critically evaluate these explanations. It is likely that you find ideas which span both sides of the debate, this is also ok. You can deal with one side of the debate then the other, or structure your discussion as a more ping pong style, either approach is fine. Does one side of the debate dominate more than the other when it comes to political, social and media driven perceptions of sexual offenders? Discuss the implications of thinking about child sexual offending in these different ways in terms of policy and practice. How are these ideas reflected in our response to child sexual offending (i.e. restrictive versus rehabilitative methods)? What would work, following on from these explanations, to address sexual offending in the longer term? You can cite some practice examples if you wish. Conclusion – summarise your salient points and their strengths/weaknesses. |
