For the midterm project we will be using the Biopsychosocial – Cultural Model to analyze a behavior. This can be done with a made-up character, yourself or you can interview someone. The behavior can be a positive or a negative behavior. Please select a behavior that is not complicated or will cause harm by evaluating it. The purpose of this assignment is not to go through a therapeutic exercise, but to just get practice identifying and recognizing the different layers of people and understanding how they might affect behavior.
Example behaviors are procrastination, quitting smoking, craving sweets, people pleasing, etc.
In a paper, please describe the layers of the Biopsychosocial – Cultural Model layers as they pertain to your person and their behavior. Those layers again are biological, cognitive-affective, social-interpersonal, social institutional, and cultural. Each layer should be discussed in the paper. If the behavior is not affected by a layer please discuss why?
This paper can be 2 pages in length. It can be longer. I am more concerned about understanding your analysis rather than a perfect grammatical and free of spelling error paper. However, I do need to be able to read it.
