Psychology

Need help with making a mental health poster.

Overview

Combating low quality information with scientific evidence is a challenge faced by most human services professionals. Posters can be used to provide easy-to-digest facts in a visually appealing way, as an aid to challenging flawed information. The objective of this assignment is to communicate persuasively and succinctly to a general audience. Create a poster debunking a myth about a mental health disorder.

Preparation

Choose 
one of the following:

· Bad parenting causes psychological disorders. Focus on anxiety disorders or schizophrenia.

· Depression is caused by personal weakness. Focus on major depressive disorder or bipolar disorders.

· Electroconvulsive shock therapy (ECT) is cruel or barbaric. Focus on major depressive disorder or bipolar disorders.

· Or choose another myth you know about one of the psychological disorders.

Find one flawed source of information on the internet. To find a flawed source, look for one with a substantial number of errors.

· Read what the textbook says about the myth.

· Use the myth you chose and use it as your search word/phrase.

· If you don’t see a flawed source on the first page of results, skip to the 3rd page of results or further.

· Look for sources that are not accurate based on the information in your textbook.

· Tips for finding flawed sources:

· Scroll through your social media feeds.

· Scroll through your results and look for sources that 
are not:

· .gov websites.

· News or press websites.

In the Capella library, find one peer-reviewed journal article about the mental health disorder.

Instructions

· Identify the chosen myth about mental health or a specific disorder.

· Identify the flawed source of information related to the myth.

· Describe the psychological disorder, including the key symptoms.

· Relate the actions of the mind and body to psychological health.

· Describe the mechanism and/or actions in the brain that lead to the symptoms of the disorder.

· Explain the research you found regarding the disorder.

· Brief mention of findings and the population the results can be generalized to.

· Explain the actions of a medication used to treat the psychological disorder.

· Describe the biological details of how it works.

· Provide an alternative explanation based on perceived flaws in behavioral claims in the overall message.

Use visual elements that support the main points.
