Complete a ?profile of mood state and a STAT inventory

Hi students, and welcome to Week #2 and our first assignment.

Here,  we are looking at individuals who are struggling with anxiety, stress,  and perhaps, self-esteem or self-worth issues. Initially, there is a  personal component to this assignment where you are asked to complete a  profile of mood state and a STAT inventory. These two inventories are  designed to give you with an idea of what it is like to both administer  and take psychological inventories—to give you a bit of perspective of  where you fall within both stress and self-worth kinds of issues.

The  second component of this assignment, which is more programmatic, asks  you to select an individual who is struggling with anxiety, stress,  maybe feelings of low self-worth or self-efficacy. This is the first  assignment that is asking you to refer back to the Achievement  Motivation model. We're going to apply the first portion of that model  to this assignment. That means, here, you are asked to explain the why of that selection; why  is that individual choosing to participate in this activity? That's  really important, students, because it makes a very, very big difference  if that individual is there because others are requiring them to be  there or if they are choosing to participate in this activity by their  own free will or their own interest.

First,  you have to apply some thought to that and come up with an answer as to  why that individual is there. You will then describe the attensional  needs, the focus challenges, perhaps, the sense of intrinsic motivation  versus extrinsic motivation which ties back into why the  individual chooses this activity. You will explain the individual's  self-worth, self-efficacy. Finally, you will make recommendations on how  or what kind of strategy is best to help the individual deal with the  anxiety, stress, or perhaps, the heightened sense of arousal at  inappropriate times for learning or performance.

Again, in ALL assignments, APA documentation, meaning in-text citations and matching references are required.

Please let me know if you have any questions about this assignment.

After thoroughly reviewing readings, lecture notes, and websites, complete the following assignment:

Complete, score, and submit the Profile of Mood States (found in the Content Section), and complete and submit the 

SCAT anxiety measure at this website https://www.brianmac.co.uk/scat.htm

You are completing these inventories for yourself, a self- study.

After  carefully reviewing the Achievement Motivation model and information,  create a comprehensive plan for an individual that is struggling with  anxiety and stress, lacks self-esteem, and generally has low performance  expectations. How are you going to help this individual improve their  self-esteem, self-worth and ultimately, self-confidence?

Provide an explanation and recommendations for the following components of this model and use these bullets as headings:

• The why of selection, Aspirations
• Attentional Needs and focus
• Intrinsic vs Extrinsic Motivation
• Self-worth, Self-efficacy
• Anxiety, Stress, Arousal
