• Summarize the connection between socioeconomic status and health from Chapter 3, one theory of your choice from Chapter 4, one theory of your choice from Chapter 5, and one theory of your choice from Chapter 6.
• Assess/describe Dasani from the “Invisible Child” case study (link on Canvas) from each perspective. The purpose of this assessment is to connect the theories you’ve learned from these chapters to this real-life example, so your paper should refer to both and explain the connections you see.
• Please note that you are NOT asked to provide a diagnosis or recommend interventions for Dasani/alternate case study in this paper. You should focus on describing Dasani through the lens of each of the theories you have chosen, assessing her case as objectively as possible. Focus on the question “what is happening in this situation?” vs. “what should happen?” or “what would I do in this situation?”
Answer these reflection questions in your conclusion:
• What did you learn about assessing individuals through this assignment?
• How has your understanding of the connections between a person and their environment changed as a result of this assignment?
