SEU Health & Medical The Mental and Behavioral Disorders Question

I’m working on a Health & Medical question and need guidance to help me study. What are the new changes in ICD 11 coding system compared to ICD10?

UW Psychology Emotional and Behavioral Disorder Essay

Assignments must be clear and written in a scholarly way using APA guidelines. Grammar and spelling count. I will deduct marks for poorly written responses (poor grammar, spelling, and sentence structure)Mac is a third-grade student who has exhibited emotional and/or behavioral disorder characteristics since he was four years old. As soon as his mother noticed he was aggressive toward his younger brother, as well as hurting animals, she had him assessed by a psychologist. This resulted in Mac being placed in an at-risk preschool program, where his behavior remained unchanged. By grade one he was seeing the school psychologist on a weekly basis. His teacher could not handle his behaviour and teach effectively to the other students, so at the end of the year, it was recommended that Mac be placed in a special education classroom starting in grade two. Between grades two and the start of three, he has stayed in the special education classroom, where he continues to challenge authority, is defiant, and disobedient. Mac also continues to struggle in both his academics and in his social environment. The school team has decided that he could benefit from multiple supports and strategies in the special education classroom to improve his behavior, academic progress, attendance, and socialization before he transitions to the inclusive classroom with his peers.What supports and strategies would you recommend to improve his behavior, academic progress, and socialization?

For wizard kim: gender appropriate and inappropriate behaviors

 
Gender Appropriate and Inappropriate Behaviors
 
Recent headlines have sparked heated debate about whether boys should be allowed to dress as girls. For example, a 5-year-old boy in Seattle who enjoys things traditionally for girls, such as jewelry, the color pink, and dresses was supported and encouraged by his mother, who wrote a book about him called “My Princess Boy”. A J. Crew ad featured a mother painting her young boy’s toenails hot pink (CBS News, 2011 April 13). Reactions ranged from outrage and disbelief to support of the mothers.
 
On the flipside, girls who shun traditionally “girly things” such as dresses and flowers in favor of more traditional “boy things” such as watching or playing sports, rough-and-tumble play, and choosing boys as friends are often called tomboys.
 
For either sex, choosing to engage in activities traditionally reserved for a specific sex can result in teasing and accusations of homosexuality.
 

Using research gathered from your textbook, online course content, and at least 1 research article, analyze the above scenarios.

Are the behaviors discussed above (i.e., preferring things traditionally acceptable for a specific sex) indicative of homosexuality? Why or why not?
Describe the psychological consequences (positive and negative) that might result from engaging in behaviors reserved for a specific sex?
Develop an argument for or against concern that these children might be exhibiting a paraphilia.
Which paraphilia(s) might apply and what criteria would you use based on the research?

 
What, if any, intervention would you recommend to a parent whose little girl or boy expresses the desire to engage in behaviors typical of the opposite sex? If you do not believe intervention is necessary, explain why.
 
Write an essay that is 4 pages in length.  Also, include a cover page and reference list.  Title and references pages not counted
 
 Remember to support your arguments with information drawn from the online content, the textbook, and other credible, scholarly sources to substantiate the points you are making.  Apply APA standards to for writing and citations to your work.
