Explain the “model of addiction” you gravitate to, and explain why you are drawn to it, focusing on etiology (i.e., moral model, disease model, multicausal model, etc.).
Paula Ramirez is a counseling student at Walden. Paula just reconnected with a friend from high school, Darius, and was sad to learn that his sister Destiny passed away last year from an overdose after years of struggling with substance use. Destiny was 38 years old. Paula offered him condolences and asked how Darius’ parents were coping with the loss. Darius replied, “They have taken it very hard. They have a hard time not blaming themselves in some way for what Destiny went through. I tell them that they were not responsible for her choices, but that does not really bring them comfort. Paula, do you think addiction is a choice? I just can’t understand why Destiny couldn’t escape her choices.”
For this week’s Journal Assignment, you will help Paula answer this question so that she can provide Darius with information about different models of addiction, and reflect on how you can apply this information to your future practice.
Write a 1-page journal entry addressing the following:
- Explain the “model of addiction” you gravitate to, and explain why you are drawn to it, focusing on etiology (i.e., moral model, disease model, multicausal model, etc.). Does the model you selected have any shortcomings?
- How will this information influence your future counseling practice? Name two concepts that you will apply to your future practice.
- Identify what concepts, if any, are challenging for you to conceptualize or areas that you wish to learn more about.

Have any of you had negative experiences that caused you to stop using a service or product?
Part 1:
Look for popular press articles that discuss either marketing research and/or customer satisfaction. In your post, summarize the article and then discuss which principle(s) of marketing are illustrated by it. Please include a link to the article. Please find below examples for reference (Please don’t Copy Paste the same)
Example 1:
Best Buy has recently decided to pilot a virtual customer service via a virtual Best Buy store. This pilot resides in a warehouse located near Best Buy’s headquarters. Best Buy has filled the warehouse with a multitude of products and employees who are prepared to answer any product questions and assist in recommending products to customers. Due to this virtual pilot store, customer service ratings for Best Buy have already soared a whopping 20%. This virtual store was undoubtedly a strategic move in the right direction for Best Buy since after the pandemic their virtual sales have reached nearly 5 times the rate they were previously.
Creating a virtual store with customer service was very smart for Best Buy because it allows the place of the products and services that Best Buy offers to be virtual as opposed to in store only. This is a smart move for Best Buy because while many individuals likely prefer the on site assistance and recommendations from Best Buy employees, after the pandemic many consumers will opt for a more convenient virtual shopping experience.
This article clearly shares the place and products that are being offered. Additionally, Best Buy has staged virtual showcases within their physical stores to show how the virtual customer service works. This new virtual customer service is benefitting both the customer and the company as well.
Example 2:
The article I found is in regards to the declining customer satisfaction Amazon is facing with their customers. This ties into the customer aspect of the 5Cs in the textbook. The percentage of customers who are considered “highly satisfied” has fallen over the last decade at Amazon. The article also stated how their rivals are starting to score higher than Amazon in customer satisfaction ratings. Some of the main reasons for Amazons slipping ratings include late shipments and poor quality of the products. It can be difficult to talk with a real person as well at Amazon since they have automated a lot of their initial customer service interactions. These poor customer ratings and perceptions from customers may be contributing to the slow growth rate of Amazon and the reason why they will be laying off employees to remain competitive and profitable. This article ties directly into chapter 14, specifically the expectations and experience section. An example is A customer had the expectation of getting a baby stroller within two days since they were prime members. Unfortunately, they had a very negative personal experience since the customer was informed the product was not going to be delivered and it was difficult for them to get their money back. This type of experience will cause customers to be dissatisfied and have a negative word of mouth with their friends and family.
Have any of you had negative experiences that caused you to stop using a service or product?

This article details the processes involved in the development of an evaluation of a police response policy pertaining to open-air drug markets. The article is particularly noteworthy as it is a demonstration of how an evaluation is developed amidst a host of real-world constraints. Students will find it useful as a guide demonstrating how evaluation researchers use topic knowledge and insight to identify proper methods to conduct scientific inquiry in a very messy social and political arena. This article will assist you in the completion of this week’s discussion posts.

Have you been aware of the privileges in your life as you were growing up? Why or why not?
This week you are exploring what it means to have privilege in all aspects of life, whether it be that
you are able to enroll in school and take this course, or that you are able to walk, type, see, taste, or
purchase/have access to groceries. Having privilege also means that you have power of some sort.
Even having access to goods and services can be seen as a privilege. Discrimination can accompany
power and privilege as those who have power and privilege may not be consciously aware of how
they benefit from it.

you have with each type of group.
