topic seven guide questions

After reading Chapter Seven in Thinking for Yourself, discuss the following guide questions by posting comments and responses on this forum. Feel free to share your thoughts of each topic. Use all available resources to aid you. NOTE: Post your answers to these questions prior to taking the module quiz or assignment points will be lost.

  1. How can word choice convey bias?
  2. How is the term viewpoints defined?
  3. Why is the term viewpoint far more than a synonym for the word opinion?
  4. Explain the difference between a conscious and unconscious viewpoint.
  5. Explain the difference between egocentrism and ethnocentrism. (Do Discussion Questions one through four on pages 202-203)
  6. Viewpoints may be hidden in news framing. How are we able to discern the viewpoint of a publication or television station or program? Why is it valuable, as a critical reader or TV viewer, to be able to characterize or label their viewpoints?
  7. Define propaganda and describe some propaganda that you were able to recognize. How did you recognize it?

After posting your answers to the discussion questions, take the chapter quiz, then remember to return and respond to at least two other classmate’s posts. When you post your responses, remember to identify the individual whom you are addressing in the response, include a thought-provoking question (not answered with a mere “yes” or “no”.) about their comments and demonstrate an in-depth understanding of the discussion, not mere superficial comments.

Treating clients with co-occurring disorders can be very challenging. One of the challenges often encountered in a therapeutic setting is resistance. For a variety of reasons, a client may resist treatment. Even if they are seeing you for services, they may or may not acknowledge they need help for either mental health or substance use related issues.

For the purposes of this discussion, imagine that you have a client who is experiencing depression and who also needs treatment for excessive alcohol use. The client freely accepts that depression is an issue and is willing to take medication and engage in psychotherapy. However, the client fails to see that their drinking pattern is maladaptive and is not willing to address the drinking issue, only the depression.


Respond to the following prompts:

  1. What reasons can you think of that might lead this client to be resistant to treatment for alcohol abuse?
    • Identify two reasons (utilize your text and/or other resources to assist you in identifying possible reasons; you may also review potential influences in areas of a person’s life including social, employment, family etc.).
  2. What steps can you take to address this resistance? There are many models/theories to work with resistance.
    • Please use at least one outside resource and your text to answer this question.

FILM: “Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse” Directed by Eleanor Coppola, George Hickenlooper, Fax Bahr.

In the late 1970s, as renegade filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola struggles to complete an epic allegory of the Vietnam War, “Apocalypse Now,” his wife, Eleanor, films his daily travails with a camera of her own.
