The FOCUS assessment defined the author as primarily artistic and suggested careers in acting, cartooning, choreography, commercial design, and composition. While none of the career choices related to the author's psychology major, the assessment accurately captured their artistic skills and enjoyment of creativity. The author's current job as a makeup artist utilizes their artistic abilities but the industry is difficult to succeed in. Both psychology and art require relating to people and ensuring client satisfaction. The author's university studies integrate communication, human development, and leadership, which could relate to careers in acting, psychology, and other social fields. Overall, the assessment was not completely helpful for career planning but provided alternative options and insight into the author's personality.

They involve developing interview questions in advance that are relevant to the job.

To be useful, tests must be standardized, reliable by providing similar results over multiple administrations, and valid by reflecting performance on the job. There are several types of tests used in hiring such as general knowledge tests related to the position, oral and written tests, performance tests, and psychological tests assessing abilities, intelligence, and personality. Research is also conducted to check an applicant's job history, family background, criminal history, economic conditions, and references.

Essay One:
Who are you?
As a class we have discussed various interpretations of the term identity; now is your chance to explore and convey how you understand the concept. In a 4-6 page essay, state your point of view, and explain using examples where your observation is evident.
Is identity deep, spiritual, and internalsomething we are born with? Or is identity more tangible, something we simply shift and use to influence or connect with others?
What do you use to define yourself (OR what defines you)? Is it your language? Your social circle? Nationality? Expression though art? Your idol? A sport or hobby? A familial role? Your favorite movie? A musical genre? Rather than trying to write about everything, pick one side of your identity that you want to focus on.
Prefer not to take a self reflective stroll down existential lane? Thats okay. If you like, it is totally acceptable to choose a character from a book or movie, or even a person you know if this is more comfortable.
For the first essay in this class, I want you to have some freedom. Identity (by definition) is a personal topic, and Id like this assignment to reflect that spirit of personalityyou can really make whatever sort of statement youd like, so long it is specific and focused.
Other questions to consider if you get stuck (you dont have to answer all of these though):
--Do we choose identity or is it assigned to us by external forces?
--Is identity fixed or fluid?
--Can identity ever be changed?
--Do we have just one true identity, or multiple identities?
Whatever embodiment of identity you break down, remember: I am most interested in WHY your choice makes you who you are. Try to incorporate symbolic meaning into your discussion.Remember, a well developed essay provides a variety of evidence; in addition to your own experiences and observations, utilize what weve looked at in class if it helps you explain your stancebreak down implied messages of a Facebook profile, discuss the crisis in the episode of Doug we watched, show why an eHow guide is not thorough enough to establish an identity. I encourage you to use any outside example you connect with as well.

Career counseling consists of activities to help individuals explore careers and make career-related decisions. Major theorists in career counseling developed theories to explain how personalities and environments interact to influence career choices. These include Holland's theory of career choice types, Super's theory of life stages and career development tasks, and Krumboltz's theory of planned happenstance. Effective career counseling uses assessments, counseling techniques, and group or individual interventions to help clients explore careers and make career decisions.Unit hsc m4 week 3

FOUNDING FATHERS
Early Theorists
Early 1900s
Theory: Person-environment fit, trait factor
Names: Parsons, Williamson, Holland
Vocational guidance is accomplished first by studying the indiv idual, then by surveying
occupations, and finally by matching the indiv idual with the occupation.
Careers are determined by an interaction between our personality and the env ironment in John
Holland's Theory of Career Choice. We want jobs with people like us.
John Holland's Theory of Career Choice maintains that in choosing a career, people prefer jobs
where they can be around others who are like them. They search for env ironments that will let
them use their skills and abilities, and express their attitudes and values, while taking on enjoyable
problems and roles. Behavior is determined by an interaction between personality and
env ironment.
Hollands theory is centered on the notion that most people fit into one of six personality types:
Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, Conventional.

animals, tools, equipment, or machines; and
Sees self as practical, mechanical, and realistic.

leading, selling, or persuading people;

This document summarizes an interview with M.S., a 22-year-old psychology graduate student, about her experience transitioning from school to work. Some key points:
- M.S. felt her university focused too much on clinical psychology and did not adequately prepare her for different career paths or the realities of the workplace.
- She struggled with aspects of the job search like writing her resume and felt unprepared for interviews. Companies also often did not provide feedback.
- Her internship experiences varied, and she felt one internship in particular helped her learn while others did not relate to her studies.
- The interview revealed a need for universities to better guide students' career development, exposeRunning head CAREER PLANNING .docx

The document discusses the history of westward expansion in America in the mid-19th century. It describes how views changed from seeing the West as a desert wasteland to an area offering opportunities for farming and economic growth. The government encouraged expansion by offering incentives like the Homestead Act and building railroads. However, the costs and risks meant westward migration was only feasible for those with financial security. Motivations included seeking land, economic opportunities, and spreading Protestant values. Expansion had impacts on indigenous peoples and Chinese/Hispanic groups living in the West.CAREER PLANNING FOR STUDENTS.pptx

This document discusses the importance of career planning for college students. It notes that over 80% of students will change their major more than once, often due to a lack of career exploration. The presenter outlines a 3-stage process for career exploration: 1) determining interests, 2) discovering career options, and 3) setting goals. Personality and interest assessments, such as Holland's 6 personality types, can help students understand what careers and majors best fit their interests and values. Choosing a major aligned with one's personality predicts greater student success, satisfaction, and career outcomes. The presenter emphasizes that career exploration and planning leads to clearer goals and benefits students both in college and after graduation.More from Allison Vaughan (8)

Allison Vaughan took a Business and Professional Communication course at Texas Tech University to supplement her job in cosmetic sales. Through the course, she learned that successful communication requires more than just good communication skills - it also involves being able to communicate effectively in various situations to different sized audiences. One major assignment had her give a series of three speeches to both in-person and online audiences, which taught her how to use visual aids and engage audiences. She also learned the importance of effective nonverbal signals like appearing confident and not fidgeting. While nervous about public speaking initially, she became more comfortable over time and saw that her audience engagement increased with her confidence. Overall, the course helped her feel more confident communicating verbally and nonPFP artifact

Allison discusses the strong relationship she had with her younger brother Kevin from a young age. She was initially confused by the new baby taking her parents' attention, but found a new playmate in Kevin once he started crawling. They would play together every day after school, often playing with Barbies since Allison was older and chose the activities. Having a sibling has taught Allison how to share, be a leader, and give advice, and she hopes her brother has also learned from her.assignment 1 HDFS

The document proposes three potential research topics: 1) Whether trends impact likes and dislikes, which could be tested through a survey comparing current versus past fashion/music preferences. 2) Whether climate affects anxiety, which could analyze stress and anxiety disorder rates in participants from different climates. 3) Whether attractiveness is based on similarities or differences, which could interview long-married couples about their perceived similarities or differences with their partner.nonverbalviolationresearch

The document discusses nonverbal communication norms in interactions. It describes experiments where the author violated typical nonverbal rules by not making eye contact, encroaching on a stranger's personal space on a bench, and repeatedly touching an acquaintance without consent. In each case, the other person reacted uncomfortably and tried to distance themselves physically. The document concludes that nonverbal behaviors establish relationships and communicate acceptance or discomfort, so violations can disrupt connections or make others feel uneasy.theory competency paper 3

Genderlect Styles theory proposes that differences in male and female communication styles are significant enough to be considered cross-cultural. The theory was developed by Deborah Tannen based on her research and bestselling book "You Just Don't Understand." Genderlect Styles views gender communication through a socio-cultural lens, asserting that men and women interpret words and symbols differently due to differences in their respective cultures. A strength is that it provides a simple explanation for observable differences in how boys and girls communicate. However, it is limited by a lack of agreement in the research community and by equalizing gender communication without acknowledging historical power imbalances.db2

Using multiple perspectives from different disciplines can provide a more comprehensive understanding of a problem and help identify solutions that benefit more people. Examining how issues intersect across areas like human development, family studies, and organizational leadership can reveal insights into how problems impact communities and how to develop strategies for effective water conservation and reuse. The researcher can analyze how households and organizations currently use water, identify ways to reduce waste, and determine where freshwater is most essential to focus conservation efforts.Vaughan_3300_L8-RP

This document summarizes a research paper that examines fresh water scarcity from the perspectives of Human Development and Family Studies and Organizational Leadership. The paper concludes that in order to conserve fresh water resources, the current water management system needs to be restructured to allow for more reuse and recycling of water to adequately meet public needs. The best way to do this is to develop new water-saving technologies through organizations, while also encouraging personal conservation efforts.INTS3301_FA_AKV
- 1. Allison Vaughan INTS 3301 Assignment 3: Focus Assessment June 16, 2013
- 2. The FOCUS assessment defined me as primarily artistic and the careers suggested to me are reflective of that. 1. Actor/Actress: takes on personas of characters reflected in TV or movies. 2. Cartoonist (Publications): a job drawing animated characters for publication in newspapers or magazines. 3. Choreographer: designs original dance routines. 4. Commercial designer: a job designing product packaging. 5. Composer: creates music for various types of musical groups. None of the career choices provided for me are related to my major. However I agree with the assessment and could see any one of these careers being enjoyable and fulfilling. I hope to pursue a career in the mental health field actively working with patients to improve their psychological wellbeing. This is much more of a social occupation involving the ability to understand and relate to others in addition to the skills of active listening and client management. My current job however is much related to the artistic field, so I can see why this assessment would place me in that category. Right now I work as a makeup artist where artistic skills are highly in demand. I do very much enjoy the creative aspect of my work; however the industry is difficult to succeed in even when talent and skills are present. Although psychology is primarily considered to be a social occupation, while the careers listed above are primarily considered artistic occupations, there is
- 3. at least one major similarity between the two spheres of occupations. Both require the skill of relating to people and ensuring client satisfaction. A successful psychologist needs to be able to connect with patients in order to understand and provide effective treatment for each patients unique situation. An artist will likely have clients who may be either individuals or corporations who come with expectations and a need to be satisfied. My major as a student of University Studies integrates three areas of concentration. Communication studies, Human Development and Family studies, and Organized Leadership. None of these areas particularly related to the careers pinpointed by the FOCUS assessment. However, one could speculate that the study of communications relates to a career such as acting because communication studies emphasizes skills such as public speaking which is necessary for an actor. All three areas are applicable in a social field such as psychology. Psychologists communicate actively with patients, while human development can be considered as a branch of psychology opening doors to careers, and the ability to make decisions and encourage others that are taught for leadership are necessary as well for a psychologist. The FOCUS assessment was not completely helpful to my future career plans. However I do think the assessment provided
