Caselet On Unemployment (Question no 2&3)
Many Theories are given by different experts to explain the reasons behind unemployment. One reason for unemployment may be downswings (periods of recession) in the business cycle.
Another reason behind wide-scale unemployment refers to structural unemployment. Structural unemployment arises from longer-term changes in the economy, affecting specific industries, regions, and occupations. Structural unemployment often explains regional unemployment. Some industries in India have lost their business and so employment to the cheaper imports coming from abroad.
Some experts explain that new technology is a cause of unemployment which is also known as technological unemployment. The argument is that the introduction of new technology is destroying jobs and business while at the same time imports from low-wage developing countries are undercutting goods produced in this country.
However, many studies may contradict this. New technologies generally help in producing new products, or services and therefore new areas of employment. Sometimes fewer workers may be required in some areas of production where specific tasks are taken over by machines, but rising productivity boosts overall income and then the demand for new jobs in the economy as a whole.
Q2: What are the main causes of Unemployment? Do you agree that technological up-gradation in any industry may cause unemployment in that industry? Provide your opinion with one example. [2.5 Marks]
Q3: Structural unemployment in many countries touched its highest peak during the coronavirus pandemic, but it seems that most of the industries in KSA were not that much affected. Discuss the role of the Saudi Government in reducing the impact of Corona pandemic on employment in Saudi Arabia. [2.5 Marks]
Caselet On Insurance Market (Question no 4)
In a sense, every insurance contract is a gamble. It is possible that you will not be in an auto accident, that your house will not burn down, and that you will not need expensive medical treatment. In most years, you will pay the insurance company the premium and get nothing in return except peace of mind. Indeed, the insurance company is counting on the fact that most people will not make claims on their policies; otherwise, it couldnt pay out the large claims to the unlucky few and still stay in business.
From the standpoint of the economy as a whole, the role of insurance is not to eliminate the risks inherent in life but to spread them around more efficiently.
The markets for insurance suffer from two types of problems that impede their ability to spread risk. One problem is adverse selection: The second problem is moral hazard:
Q4: Adverse Selection and Moral Hazard are two important problems of Insurance companies. Explain each with the help of an example. Also, suggest solutions to the Insurance companies to tackle these problems in the insurance market.[2.5 Marks]
Briefly describe the nonprofit organization you are using for your Final Project. Describe at least two solicitation strategies you might use to engage donors who make small-to-medium donations, and explain why you chose each.
It is critical to be proactive in creating specific solicitation strategies for new and/or existing smallmedium donors. These individual donors (usually $1$499 annual gifts) are an important base of support. Over time they may become major donors. Given meaningful cultivation and education strategies, they may also increase the size of their donations over time. They often learn of your organization and its work through special events, mail appeals, visits to a website, or simply through a board member or volunteer. The key is to encourage a one-time donor to become an ongoing, thoughtful donor!
In a 3- to 4-page paper (not including the title page or references), describe strategies for soliciting donors who make small-to-medium donations.

Case study : Hematopoietic:J.D. is a 37 years old white woman who presents to her gynecologist complaining of a 2-month history of intermenstrual bleeding, menorrhagia, increased urinary frequency, mild incontinence, extreme fatigue, and weakness. Her menstrual period occurs every 28 days and lately, there have been 6 days of heavy flow and cramping. She denies abdominal distension, backache, and constipation. She has not had her usual energy levels since before her last pregnancy. Past Medical History (PMH):Upon reviewing her past medical history, the gynecologist notes that her patient is a G5P5 with four pregnancies within four years, the last infant having been delivered vaginally four months ago. All five pregnancies were unremarkable and without delivery complications. All infants were born healthy. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of osteoarthritis in the left knee, probably the result of sustaining significant trauma to her knee in an MVA when she was 9 years old. When asked what OTC medications she is currently taking for her pain and for how long she has been taking them, she reveals that she started taking ibuprofen, three tablets each day, about 2.5 years ago for her left knee. Due to a slowly progressive increase in pain and a loss of adequate relief with three tablets, she doubled the daily dose of ibuprofen. Upon the recommendation from her nurse practitioner and because long-term ibuprofen use can cause peptic ulcers, she began taking OTC omeprazole on a regular basis to prevent gastrointestinal bleeding. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of HTN for which she is now being treated with a diuretic and a centrally acting antihypertensive drug. She has had no previous surgeries. Case Study 1 Questions: Name the contributing factors on J.D. that might put her at risk to develop iron deficiency anemia. Within the case study, describe the reasons why J.D. might be presenting constipation and or dehydration. Why Vitamin B12 and folic acid are important for erythropoiesis? What abnormalities their deficiency might cause in the red blood cells?

CardiovascularMr. W.G. is a 53-year-old white man who began to experience chest discomfort while playing tennis with a friend. At first, he attributed his discomfort to the heat and had a large breakfast. Gradually, however, discomfort intensified to a crushing sensation in the sternal area and the pain seemed to spread upward into his neck and lower jaw. The nature of the pain did not seem to change with deep breathing. When Mr. G. complained of feeling nauseated and began rubbing his chest, his tennis partner was concerned that his friend was having a heart attack and called 911 on his cell phone. The patient was transported to the ED of the nearest hospital and arrived within 30 minutes of the onset of chest pain. En route to the hospital, the patient was placed on a nasal cannula and an IV D5W was started. Mr. G. received aspirin (325 mg PO) and 2 mg/IV morphine. He is allergic to meperidine (rash). His pain has eased slightly in the last 15 minutes but is still significant; was 9/10 in severity; now7/10. In the ED, chest pain was not relieved by 3 SL NTG tablets. He denies chills.

Paper Requirements: 8-10 pages, must use class textbook, APA format, double spaced, look for suggested outline and headings below:
For this paper choose a client that you have worked during your placement. Ideally this will be a client who you have worked for at least 3-4 weeks, and has presented some therapeutic challenges. You are strongly encouraged to choose a client that is “different” from you in terms for example of race, gender, age, sexual orientation, class, religion.
Part I (3-4 pages) (DUE MODULE IV week 8)
In Part I, you are invited to present a brief summary of the case a brief case formulation and an assessment of the client’s attachment style. You will need to justify the attachment style you chose by referring to the readings and other educational material. You are expected to demonstrate the client’s attachment by referring to specific observations in therapy. For example Client was always getting anxious upon separation…”
In addition, you are encouraged to reflect on how you responded to the client’s attachment style in the therapeutic relationship e.g. “given that the client was always anxious above separation, I made sure I reminded them that they had five minutes left ‘OR “I felt unsure what do to” “Or “I ended up giving them extra time as they seem to need it and was late for my next client”.
Here how you can structure the first part of the paper:
Identifying Information (1 paragraph)
1. General statement about who the client is. Refer to Age, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, marital status, employment, education, & resources (housing, finances, support system)
2. Diagnoses (DSM- V), medication, and major medical conditions
3. How client came to you (referral source) & your role (mentor, case worker, home-based therapist, clinician, school social worker)
Presenting Problem (1 paragraph)
1. Identify client’s core problem?
2. How/why did the core problem develop?
3. How is the core problem impacting the client currently?
Mental Status, Current Functioning Cognitive Behavioral Assessment (1 page)
Narrative format (not bullets)
Neutral/non-judgmental descriptions.
Attachment Style Assessment and Clinical Presentation (2 pages)
Using Chapter 6 in the Teyber text, our powerpoints and other attachment related readings identify your client’s predominant attachment style with specific examples (statements & behavior)
Try and identify the reasons for his/her attachment style based upon early childhood experiences, trauma history, parenting style
Identify how your client exhibits this attachment style in his/her interactions with you (process dimension)
Identify any transference & countertransference that has occurred in your interactions related to the attachment style of your client
Part II (4-5 pages) (DUE Module VII)
Effective advanced generalist clinical practice requires constant re-examination of how we think and feel about clients as well as about what we do with them. It means acknowledging and embracing our prejudices, fears and errors as well as our successes. This part is aimed at increasing student self-awareness, and an ability to connect theory and practice and the skill of reflection-in-action.
Part II continues with the same client, and discusses therapeutic challenges (i.e. therapeutic impasses, complicated transference & countertransference) mistakes and corrective emotional experiences. (4-5 pages)
Through a clinical example (ideally it can be taken from a process recording) demonstrate an incident where you were faced with a clinical challenge.
b) Analyze and discuss your cognitive and affective (what you thought and felt) reactions to this client. Highlight any conflicts, areas of being “stuck” and difficult decisions in your practice with this client.
c) Analyze and discuss any biases, fears, strongly positive reactions, rescue fantasies, anger, empathy, similarities or conflicts you experienced. How did you handle these feelings? This refers to countertransference.
