PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS AND TREATMENTS Task 1 CASE STUDY Task 2 From the behavior displayed by Cathy, it comes out clearly that she is suffering from Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD). Social anxiety disorder has been defined as the fear that surrounds a person on a social situation and when interacting with unfamiliar people to bring an automatic feeling of self-consciousness and judgment. Looking at the case of Cathy as presented, we can conclude that she is a grown up as depicted by her age, 22 years. So the behavior she displays can’t be associated with childhood. From her story, we realize that she drives her own car when going to university, not because of any other reasons but because she fears using the public transport.

This conclusion is however affirmed by her deliberate choice to leave his course of interest (Business studies) in the university because…
Social justice as one of the ethical issues nurses experience Social justice is one of the ethical issues that nurses, particularly those at family and community level experience. Working as a women health’s care nurse practitioners (WHNP) in one of the marginalized community, I have had an experience of the impact of social injustice particularly among the expecting women and had to act to help the vulnerable mothers and their babies. In the state where I work, WHNPs operates with full autonomy which motivated me to create access opportunities and improve health outcomes of the expecting mothers. Often, these mothers cannot afford high-quality care nor access obstetrician or gynaecologists due to their low socioeconomic status, which is not their wish. These impacts their health and babies since most mothers wait for complications to resolve on their own. Expecting mothers were waiting until conditions are worse to seek care which improves their chances of complications and reduces quality pregnancy outcome while others gave birth at home, which increased their chances of infecting of their babies. A significant number of expecting mothers…

Transatlantic Investment Partnership The reasons why the US and EU should be interested in implementing the Transatlantic Investment Partnership US and EU are among the largest economies that can make the world’s largest trade partners that already had a strong trade relation before embarking on making trade agreements. Trade talks between the two started in 2013 with the aim of making the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) which could lead to a decrease in trade barriers (Kennedy, 2020). The TTIP agreement could also give the US and EU the power to control the world trade and tame rising economies like China, which was giving then significant competition in the world market. The free trade agreements could have cemented the successful economic bond that existed for decades between the European countries and the US. The US and EU technocrats were tasked with the responsibility of drawing an agreement that could include elements of trade that matches with the evolving global economy.

Participant observation method While it is the most challenging qualitative method of collecting data, participant observation method is the most natural and the best way that researchers can immerse themselves in a culture without contaminating the field (Shah, 2017). Participant observation method, also referred to as ethnographic research allows a researcher to be part of the study group, connect with most basic human experiences and enables discovery through immersion and participation. It puts a researcher in an excellent position to understand the whys and hows of human behaviors in their natural context. The researcher in the participant observation method is a subjective participant and objective observer, implying that they must wisely play two essential but separate roles at the same time. This is necessary, in most cases, to ensure that the study group is unaware of the researcher’s primary objective. Usually, the study group will act and behave differently once the field is contaminated (Jorgensen, 2020).
