Scenario

   Aunt Phyllis

  

 Background

 

 

 

Your Aunt Phyllis, who is 61 years old and a widow, lives close to you and was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 years ago. Her husband died of a stroke 5 years ago. She has one daughter, but her daughter lives far away, and their relationship is not close. She has undergone surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy treatments, and her cancer is in remission. Her doctors do not recommend further treatment at this time. She still experiences nausea occasionally, possibly conditioned from the time spent undergoing chemotherapy treatments.

 

 

 Problem

 

 

 

You have noticed that your aunt’s energy level is reduced and, when you visit, you observe that she does less to keep her apartment as clean as she used to. Her personal hygiene has also reduced. In speaking with her, you have noticed that she is very fearful that the cancer will return. She has even expressed concern that she will soon die. She has a pessimistic attitude toward life. She used to play bridge with a group of friends, but she has not seen them in over a year. Her social support is very low, and you are one of her few close confidants. You also have some concerns about her short-term memory, as she often seems to forget things that have recently happened.

 

 

 Behavioral Health Information

 

 

 

Phyllis has always been slender, but she appears even more frail since her cancer treatments. She was never a big eater, but her appetite is reduced further because the chemotherapy made her quite nauseous. Sleep patterns are disturbed by early awakening insomnia. She goes to bed at about 8 PM and usually awakens at 2 AM and cannot get back to sleep. She walks every day for exercise, but her attitude toward exercise is fairly negative, and she states that “I don’t know what this walking is doing for me.” She is a religious person and attends church every week. She confided that she is angry with God about her cancer. She believes she has led a good life and cannot understand why she was cursed with this disease. Her self-efficacy is low, which is a dramatic change from her “old self,” before her husband died and she was diagnosed with cancer. She used to be vibrant and active, as you remember her. She has never been seen by a psychologist or psychiatrist.

WHOLE GROUP SUB GROUP AND INDIVIDUAL ANALYSIS

/in /by

Part 1: Whole Group Analysis

Analyze the graphic representation of the pre- and post-assessments you created in the Administering Assessments assignment to determine the level of success of students in meeting learning goals. Respond to the following questions:
If any students met the learning goals:
1. How many students did not reach the goals?
2. Are there any patterns? Hypothesize why or why not.

If any of the students did not meet the goals:
1. How many students did not reach the goals?
2. How much progress did these students make toward each goal?
3. Are there any patterns? Hypothesize why or why not.

Part 2: Subgroup Analysis

Select a group characteristic (e.g., gender, performance level, socioeconomic status, language proficiency) to analyze in terms of one learning goal. Explain why you chose this characteristic subgroup.
Create a graphic representation that compares pre- and post-assessment results for the subgroup. Analyze the graphic representation subgroup’s results. Be sure to:

1. Compare the data results of the individual students in the subgroup to one another. Describe any patterns you notice.
2. Contrast the data results of the subgroup to the whole class results. Describe any differences you notice.
3. Hypothesize why the subgroup may have performed similarly or differently than the class as a whole.
4. Provide possible explanations why the group performed as it did.

Part 3: Individual Analysis

Select two students that demonstrated different levels of performance. Explain why you chose these two students.

It is not necessary to use a graphic representation to compare pre- and post-assessment results for the subgroups
Analyze the graphic representation of the pre- and post-assessments you created in the Administering Assessments assignment and examples of students’ work to analyze each student’s progress toward meeting learning goals. Be sure to:

Contrast the two students’ pre-assessment, formative assessment, and post-assessment results to draw conclusions about the extent these students attained the two learning goals.

Hypothesize why these students may have performed similarly and/or differently.
