NU 672 unit 8 ppt

Trauma- and stressor-related disorders include disorders in which exposure to a traumatic or stressful event is listed explicitly as a diagnostic criterion. These include reactive attachment disorder, disinhibited social engagement disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), acute stress disorder, adjustment disorders, and prolonged grief disorder.

For this assignment, you will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with speaker note. You will address posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), adjustment disorders, acute stress disorder, and one other disorder of your choice (e.g., reactive attachment disorder, disinhibited social engagement disorder, or prolonged grief disorder). Alternatively, your additional disorder of choice could reflect a deeper dive into a derivative of PTSD (e.g., refugee PTSD); a derivative of adjustment disorders (e.g., termination of a romantic relationship); or a derivative of acute stress disorder (e.g., acute stress following a sexual assault). The presentation should include the following slides:

Slide 1: Title Slide

Slide 2: Introduction

Slides 37: Posttraumatic stress disorder

Slides 812: Adjustment disorders

Slides 1317: Acute stress disorder

Slides 1822: Disorder of choice

Slide 23: Summary

Slide 24: References

For each disorder type, you will have five slides that address the following five topics:

1. Etiology and prevalence of the disorder
2. Diagnostic criteria and diagnostic features
3. Differential diagnoses
4. Pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, including but not limited to therapies and follow-up
5. Cultural, gender, ethnic, spiritual, and social considerations
