The risk-benefit calculation for any drug assumes a correct diagnosis of the disorder. Many investigators and clinicians feel the current epidemic of child psychiatric disorders is largely due to inappropriate diagnosis. Evaluate the risk and benefits of using psychoactive drugs in children correctly diagnosed with a disorder versus those incorrectly diagnosed with a disorder. Consider the risks and benefits of not treating (drug treatment) a child because he or she is not correctly diagnosed with a disorder. In your evaluation summarize the natural course of the disorder, the drug action on the neurotransmitter systems in question, and the likelihood of short-term, long-term, and permanent positive and negative effects of drug treatment. Make sure to take into account the ethical dimension of this risk-benefit calculation.

What is reasoning by analogy? How are analogies evaluated? Please provide an example.

- It is often easier to see manifestations of women’s oppression in cultures other than our own, since they don’t seem “natural” to us. However, as we have seen in class, for every issue we have located in “other cultures” we can find an analogous manifestation in the culture(s) of the United States that reveals a shared rootedness in patriarchal society. Offer and explain U.S. analogues to three of the following: stark division of gender roles, son preference, child marriage, and control of women’s sexuality.

-Discuss the origins of human rights discourse and the extent to which it has been applied (or not) to women’s issues we have discussed in class. Provide examples of how women’s lives (stories, issues, voices, ideas) continue to be "silenced" around the world.

- Family has been described as a “mythical haven.” Even though many of us find love and support among and within our families, statistically, it can be a dangerous place for women around the globe and in the U.S. How exactly is it “dangerous” in the context of women’s human rights? Why is it difficult to make motherhood, marriage and family “safe spaces” for women?

Space Utilization - The perception process

Sherman Adder, assistant plant manager for Frame Manufacturing Company, is chairperson of the ad hoc committee for space utilization. The committee is made up of the various department heads in the company. The plant manager of Frame has given Sherman the responsibility for seeing whether the various office, operations, and warehouse facilities of the company are being optimally utilized. The company is beset by raising costs and the need for more space. However, before okaying an expensive addition to the plant, the plant manager wants to be sure that the currently available space is being utilized properly.

Sherman opened up the first committee meeting by reiterating the charge of the committee. The Sherman asked the members if they had any initial observations to make. The first to speak was the office manager, He stated; “Well, I know we are using every possible inch of room that we have available to us. But when I walk out into the plant, I see a lot of open spaces. We have people piled on top of one another, but out in the plant there seems to be plenty of rooms.” The production manager quickly replied: ‘We don not have a lot of space. Your office people have the luxury facilities. My supervisors don’t even have room for a desk and a file cabinet. I have repeatedly told the plant manager we need more space. After all, our operations determine whether this plant succeeds, or fall, not you people in the front office pushing paper around.” Sherman interrupted at this point and said: Obviously, we have different interpretations of the space utilization around here. Before further discussion I think it would be best if we have some objective facts to work with. I am going to ask the industrial engineer to provide us with some objective statistics on plant and office layouts before our next meeting. Today’s meeting is adjourned.”
