Psychological case study | Nursing homework help

 

Instructions
Choose one of the psychological disorders discussed in the textbook (i.e. generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, etc.) and create a fictitious case study of someone who exhibits the behaviors of this disorder.

Academic case studies typically focus on a single individual or small group of people, providing specific and detailed information about the person and chosen topic. Your case study for this assignment should include the following:

  • A fictitious person that is the focus of your case study
  • A description of this fictious person
  • Specific behaviors related to the chosen psychological disorder
  • Background information to give context of these behaviors
  • Information on how the person may be affected by the chosen psychological disorder

Here is an example of how you might get started creating a case study about a person who suffers from claustrophobia. You will need to elaborate on the assignment to fully address the instruction components and rubric, but this can help to get you started!: Case Study Draft Download Case Study Draft.
