between biology and behavior. As part of your discussion, indicate the
part of the nervous system that would most likely be studied using this
technique. Your initial post should be a minimum of 250 words and

you think is the most powerful or useful for examining the relationship
between biology and behavior. As part of your discussion, indicate the

Nervous System. This week, you will examine the major structures of
the central and peripheral nervous systems, as well as the location and
function of these structures. Search the Ashford University Online
Library and locate a peer-reviewed research study that was published
within the last five years, which examines the role of one of the
structures reviewed in Chapter 4 of your course text. The research
study you identify should evaluate the function of this structure in
either normal or abnormal behavior.
Movement. This week you were introduced to the role of the central
and peripheral nervous system in controlling movement. The reading
also discussed the role of these systems in movement disorders. One of
the most well-known of these movement disorders is Parkinsons
disease.
Final Project Outline. This week you will create an outline of the main
points of your Final Project, using the psychological disorder that was
selected and approved by the instructor in Week One. Refer to the Final
Project prompt in Week Five for the section components that must be
included in your outline. Each main heading and any subheadings must
include at least a two to three sentence description. You must also
identify a minimum of six peer-reviewed references that were published
within the last five years, which you will use for your Final Project. At
least two to three of these should be research studies. Indicate which
section each reference supports
Gender Testing. For the discussion this week read the article by
Schweinbenz&Cronk on gender testing of female Olympic athletes. The
authors of this article argue that this is a discriminatory practice that
should be abolished. After reading the chapter on regulation of sexual
behavior, do you agree with their argument? Cite specific sexual
development disorders as part of your discussion this week to support
the stance you take. Should females who have androgen insensitivity or
other sexual development disorders be allowed to compete as females?
Does it
Eating Disorders. Read the article by Wilson et. al. on the behavioral
approaches to the treatment of eating disorders. Choose an eating
disorder that is reviewed in this article and in the text. Review the
proposed physiological and behavioral mechanisms of this disorder.
Based on the proposed causes, which treatment strategy reviewed in
this article do you think would be most successful in the treatment of
this disorder? Your initial post should be a minimum of 250 words and
utilize at least one peer-reviewed source published in the last five
years.
For your Final Project, you will use the psychological disorder that was
selected and approved by the instructor in Week One. In your project,
you will provide an overview of the major biopsychological theories of
the disorder as well as a detailed discussion of the biopsychological
causes and treatment approaches for the disorder. The Final Project
must utilize peer-reviewed sources, published within the last five years,
and cited according to APA guidelines, to support and enhance your
analysis of the selected disorder. In addition to the general overview of
biopsychological causes and available treatment approaches, locate
two to three published research studies that support a discussion of
possible, effective biopsychological approaches to treatment and
incorporate the biopsychological cause of the disorder.
