/in /by

What theories resonate most for you in explaining and understanding the development of externalizing behaviors in children and adolescents? How does this inform your approach to treatment planning?

I believe that the social learning theory is one of the most helpful theories for explaining the development of externalizing behaviors in children and adolescents. This includes both younger children and teenagers.

What are externalizing behaviors in children?
A child or an adult who exhibits externalizing behaviors engages in behaviors that harm others as opposed to lashing out at the self (which are known as internalizing behaviors). 1 Externalizing behaviors include physical aggression, verbal bullying, relational aggression, defiance, theft, and vandalism.
How do you manage externalizing behavior?
Treatment interventions for externalizing behavior include drug therapies, behavior management, psychotherapy, and parenting effectiveness programs in order to help manage the behaviors.

Which of the following is a mechanism of action associated with cocaine?

/in /by

Which of the following is a mechanism of action associated with cocaine? For example, cocaine acts by binding to the dopamine transporter, blocking the removal of dopamine from the synapse. Dopamine then accumulates in the synapse to produce an amplified signal to the receiving neurons.

It inhibits the reuptake of dopamine.
It decreases 5 HT in the brain, while simultaneously decreasing dopamine.
It decreases 5 HT in the brain, while simultaneously increasing dopamine.
Is cocaine a dopamine agonist or antagonist?
Cocaine is a monoamine transporter blocker and, thus, an indirect agonist of dopamine receptors. Cocaine binds the dopamine transporter (DAT), blocking the protein’s ability to uptake dopamine from the synaptic cleft and also blocking DAT from terminating dopamine signaling.
How does cocaine affect the nervous system quizlet?
Cocaine prevents dopamine from recycling, causing excessive amounts to build up between nerve cells. This flood of dopamine ultimately disrupts normal brain communication and causes cocaine’s high.

What are the three main areas of evidence for the biological basis of human personality?
Based on Hans Eysenck’s theory, there is a biological basis to personality, and Personality differences arise from genetic heritage [62,115]. Eysenck’s model has three super-factors that are independent constructs: extraversion, neuroticism, and Psychoticism.
