The purpose here is to assess a stuffed toy’s applicability to the developmental psychology of the infant. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Diagnosed Disorder: OCD
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. Being compelled by the urge to display abnormal behavior is frustrating and embarrassing reality for people who suffer with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The perceived weakness to overcome the persistent desire to repeat behaviors one knows do not need repeating inevitably breaks down one's self-esteem and compromises the overall mental health status. Checking the light switch is turned off even though the light bulb is not illuminated, locking/unlocking doors several times, washing hands dozens of times a day or making sure the coffee pot is unplugged even though one remembers unplugging it are just some of the behaviors people with OCD feel compelled to do despite their logical thought processes telling them otherwise. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. The essential underpinning of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a discussion that involves the overall concepts of life's purpose and meaning, a dialogue that focuses upon compensating for opposites such as balance/imbalance, thesis/antithesis (Marra, 2005). It also incorporates the painful components of conflict and opposition inasmuch as "the needs of the person are frequently in conflict with the demand characteristics and contingencies of the environment at the moment" (Marra, 2005, p. 84). Dialectical behavior therapy is particularly associated with borderline personality disorder (BPD), an illness primarily caused by a defect in early development and attachment.
