Sociology homework help
Sociology homework help. Overview
You will participate in a discussion activity to identify various strategies for coping with illness. You may want to write your answers on a word processor before posting the answers on the forum. Let’s get started.
Assignment Description
In the last few weeks, we have discussed a person’s health managing can be shaped by their coping strategies. In this assignment, we will watch a video of a person’s illness experience and explore the different ways a healthcare provider can influence a person’s coping strategies.
First, watch Allison-a woman with fibromyalgia:https://youtu.be/ipM75bc9JTw (Links to an external site.)
Second, answer the following questions: Please label your answers clearly.
Identify 3 ways she used emotion-focused coping. Be sure to explain WHY it is an emotion-focused coping strategy.
Identify 3 ways she used problem-focused coping. Be sure to explain WHY it is a problem-focused coping strategy.
Between problem-focused coping and emotion-focused coping, which one is better? Why?
If you would like Allison to adopt more problem-focused coping, what would you do? Why?
Are there situations that you may want to encourage someone to adopt emotion-focused coping? Name two scenarios that you’d do so.
Reminders:
For questions (1) and (2), depending on how you explain a coping strategy, a coping strategy may be an emotion-focused coping, a problem-focused coping, or both. Thus, the grading is based on your explanation, not just the specific examples you provided.
For Question (4), be sure to use theoretical construct (i.e., self-efficacy) to explain your reasoning.
Word Count: I expect a word count of 800-1000.
