Catherine decided to see a registered dietitian after watching a news story about the 2006 CDC Preconception Health Initiative (p. 66), including the recommendation that each person should make a reproductive life plan. Currently 29 years old, she has been on oral contraceptives for 10 years. She would like to have children someday, possibly in her mid-thirties, after she has established her career. Her height is 5’6” (1.68 m) and her weight is 175 lb. (79 kg). She considers herself fairly active, exercising for about 30 minutes three times per week. Due to being a busy professional, she admits to drinking close to 40 ounces of coffee most days and only occasionally drinks alcohol. Her personal health history includes iron-deficiency anemia at age 25, although she thinks this has resolved; her family history includes heart disease and type two diabetes; both of her parents are still living. No recent lab work is available.

Comment on the following questions and number your responses:

1. Should she change her method of contraception for nutrition or other health reasons?
2. Are there any risk factors for impaired fertility in her current health status?
3. What recommendations do you have to help her meet her long-term goal of having children someday?

Tough Decisions

This week’s lecture focused on problem solving and decision making. What are some of the toughest decisions you’ve had to make in your life? What techniques (as explored in the Week 5 reading) did you use at the time to make them? Would you do anything differently now? Feel free to explore decisions you’ve had to make in your schooling, career (past or present), family life and with friendships.

Your work should be at least 500 words, but mostly draw from your own personal experience. This should be written in first person and give examples from your life. Be sure if you are using information from the readings that you properly cite your readings in this, and in all assignments.

1)The readings demonstrate some of the conflicting ethics between the legal system and science. For instance, the legal system is founded upon an adversarial model (here in the U.S. anyway –other countries use different models). In our adversarial legal system, and attorneys are ethically obligated to advocate for their client and tell the best story possible for their “side” out of the evidence available. In contrast, science is founded on objectivity – not advocacy – and thus data is supposed to speak for itself rather than be shaped to tell a good story. Why are these competing ethical foundations between the legal system and science important for understanding the challenge of practicing forensic psychology?
2)When a psychologist accepts a referral to do a forensic evaluation, who is the “client?” Discuss how and why this is a complicated question.  
3)Can a forensic psychologist wear “2 hats” – that is, can they serve in multiple roles in a case? For instance, in a child custody evaluation case, can a psychologist who provides treatment to the family then become the forensic psychologist hired in the case to conduct a child custody evaluation to help the court determine custody arrangements? Why or why not?
