Description For your final disorder,choose aDSM-V disorder and a specific population affected by the disorder (e.g., veterans and PTSD;homeless individuals and schizophrenia;teen girls and anorexia; men andborderline personality disorder; children and bipolardisorder,etc.).You can be as broad or asspecific as you’d like. The guidelines for this paper are very broad. As you have the freedom to choose a variety of diagnoses, students will likely find different materials/research. The main topics that should be covered are Disorder (introduce the diagnosis, discuss diagnostic criteria and/or clinical presentations in the population you chose, how/why the disorder affects this group [does it manifest differ, occur frequently/infrequently, etc.], possible causes) , Treatment , and Sociocultural or experiential influences (do any specific factors like race, ethnicity, gender, class or socioeconomic status, stigma, or any events (traumatic events, past or historical trauma, use of substances, etc.) that may influence the onset/duration/manifestation of or treatment of this disorder?). You don’t need to make your paper flow in that specific order (disorder – treatment – influences). Rather, you just want to hit on these topics within your paper. Consider the following areas for your Paper: • Diagnosis & population o Describe the DSM-V diagnosis and its criteria o Discuss any important subtypes if they exist o Introduce your population • Symptoms o Do the symptoms present differently in your selected population? If so, discuss how this disorder likely presents o Why may the symptoms look different for this selected population compared to a more traditional “textbook” case of the disorder? What factors may contribute to this? • Prevalence rates o Is your selected population affected by this diagnosis at different rates than the general population? If so, why? • Treatment o What methods are effective in treating the diagnosis in your selected population? o Does your selected population typically not receive effective treatment? Why may this be? ? Is there a stigma that this population may face? o What treatment disparities, if any, exist? o Are there any culturally-specific treatments available that can be used? Are they effective? • Any other sociocultural influences/aspects that are relevant and important to this disorder?
