Written Assignment #2: Martin Family Case Study Analysis

HSV364—Human Behavior in Society

For Written Assignment #2, you will revisit the Martin family and conduct a case analysis. This assignment must be 6-8 pages in length, written in APA format (12 point Times New Roman font, double-spaced, 1 inch margins on all sides) and reference at least 3 scholarly sources in addition to your textbook.

Review the Martin Family case study and select one of the identified problems as your primary focus and complete your Case Analysis by addressing the following aspects:

Introduction: Briefly identify major elements (i.e., people, setting) of the identified situation.

Identify Problem Situation: Give a specific and concisely written description of the problem to guide the analysis and problem-solving. Be sure to identify each family member’s role in the identified problem.

Case Analysis: Identify the various micro, meso, and macro contextual factors (describe the contexts that apply to the case: individual, family, school/employment/environment, peer, community) that created and/or sustain the problem. Also describe how these contexts are influenced by additional factors (i.e. cultural, economic, legal, societal/gender roles/expectations). Provide a description of how your contextual analysis is linked to the identified problem. Be sure to use scholarly sources to support your connection of the case analysis to the problem situation.

Theoretical Selection: Choose a theoretical orientation from your textbook that will guide your analysis of the case. Tell why you have chosen this orientation and how it best fits the case. Be sure to use and define theory terms.

Alternative Strategies: Using scholarly sources on the problem or area of human behavior in the social environment, identify two or more possible solutions to the problem and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each possible solution. Additionally, explore the possible unintended effects of intervening into the problem and how this may impact the individual/family.

Conclusion: Be sure to draw your paper to a close and highlight the significant elements of your analysis relating to the identified problem and draw out the main points to apply in general terms.
