You will develop an instructional plan to teach a student with autism a specific social skill using the decision making process described by Stitcher and colleagues (2019) (ATTACHED). The plan will include a student and setting description, objective for the target skill, description of the evidence-based practice used to teach the skill, implementation steps, and progress monitoringWrite a brief description of the target student (use a pseudonym or initials) including: student age, disability category, and current functioning level in the areas of social skills and communication. Briefly describe the setting including: number of students and adults, age/grade level, public/private school, and classroom type.using the decision-making process described by Stitcher and colleagues (2019). The completed template should be included in your final submission.
Complete the decision making template (ATTACHED) using the decision-making process described by Stitcher and colleagues (2019). The completed template should be included in your final submission.
Write an objective for the skill you will teach using the four components: student, condition, behavior (objective and measurable), and criterion for performance. The objective should be clearly linked to the student’s current functioning.
Identify and describe the evidence-based practice (EBP) you will use to teach the specific social skill. Provide a brief description of the intervention strategy, including at least five defining characteristics of that approach.
Provide a rationale for selecting the EBP using the decision-making process described by Stitcher and colleagues (2019). Your rationale should include defining characteristics of the EBP (e.g., target population, target skill, environment, etc.) and incorporate the student’s individual characteristics (e.g., strengths, prerequisite skills, etc.).
Describe the implementation steps you will use to teach the student (i.e., how you are teaching the skill). Procedures should include terminology from class, contain at least five elements of the EBP, and be written clearly enough so that a paraeducator/assistant or parent could easily implement the procedure.

INTRODUCTION
The courts require the expert testimony of a psychiatrist or psychologist to render an opinion as to whether an individual meets the statutory requirement to be committed under sexually violent predator laws. Psychologists form an opinion by relying on actuarial instruments, such as the Static-99R. Although actuarial measures are the best tools available, their predictive rates are not much better than the flip of a coin. The statistical science needed to make better instruments does not exist because the base rate of reoffenders is relatively low. Due to this, should a psychologist or a mental health professional participate in the civil commitment of an individual knowing that the science is so poor? Would offering an opinion be an ethical violation? If not, how is it justified?
This week, you will evaluate the ethical considerations for civil commitment and analyze whether sexual predators are curable.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Students will:
Evaluate ethical considerations for civil commitment for sex offenders
Analyze whether sexual predators are curable
Ethical Considerations in Civil Commitment
Civil commitment is used to protect oneself or others from someone who is suffering some form of mental disease or disorder. Civil commitment since the early 1990s has been used to institutionalize sexually violent people and justified as necessary to protect the public. Kansas v. Hendricks (1997) was a ruling that decided that the civil commitment of a sex offender was not double jeopardy if the intent was to provide treatment for the offender. The Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 greatly accelerated the rate of civil commitments. Confinement is based upon psychological science, which is weak. Moose Lake Lodge, the SVP treatment center for the state of Minnesota, was sued in 2014, facing allegations that the state violated the civil liberties of those individuals committed into Moose Lake Lodge. The federal court found that the state was, in fact, violating detainees’ civil liberties and ordered immediate remediation.
In this Discussion, you will be assigned a position to argue, pro or con, to the statement “Civil commitment is ethical, as sexual predators are incurable.”
Note: By Day 5 of Week 10, your Instructor will assign you a position of pro or con to debate in this Discussion.

Instructions and Objective : This is a runoff paper, look at feedback of professor and fix everthing then add on for each section of what is asking within rubric uploded below.
For this Human Development class project, you are tasked with writing a comprehensive
paper envisioning the development of fraternal twins, a boy, and a girl, through various life
stages. The project should include an introduction highlighting the significance of studying
human development and the unique insights provided by observing twins. The paper should
cover prenatal development, infancy, early childhood, middle childhood, adolescence,
adulthood, and older adulthood.
Throughout each stage, you are expected to integrate relevant developmental theories such as
Erikson’s psychosocial stages, Piaget’s cognitive development, and attachment theories, while
incorporating landmark studies and recent research findings. For each section, you are
expected to provide between three and five examples. Examples include appropriate
theories and relevant research. You must cite all referenced research in APA style.
When writing the paper, emphasis should be placed on exploring potential gender differences
in the twins’ experiences, behaviors, and development. The project will conclude with a
summarizing conclusion highlighting key insights gained from the hypothetical journey of
these twins and the broader implications for understanding human development.
In completing this paper on the developmental journey of siblings across various life stages,
you are encouraged to infuse a personal touch into your writing. Feel free to draw upon your
own experiences, reflections, and observations. Personal anecdotes can enhance the
authenticity of your narrative and make the content more engaging.
If you find it easier to relate the paper to your own personal experiences, please do so. Share
insights gained from your own life, family, or relationships. Reflecting on personal
experiences can provide depth to your analysis and contribute to a richer understanding of the
developmental processes.
Alternatively, you are welcome to create a fictional scenario that aligns with each of the
developmental stages. Craft a compelling narrative that makes sense, ensuring that
appropriate examples and research are seamlessly integrated to support your analysis. This
approach allows you the flexibility to explore different facets of human development through
an imaginative lens.
Remember, the key is to demonstrate a thorough understanding of developmental theories,
milestones, and potential gender-related differences. Whether drawing from personal
experiences or creating a fictional narrative, ensure that your paper remains grounded in
relevant research and theories.
Project Guidelines
 Introduction: Begin your paper with an engaging introduction that sets the stage for
exploring the unique development of twins. Highlight the significance of studying human
development, particularly in the context of twins, and briefly introduce the purpose of the
paper.
 Prenatal Development: Discuss the prenatal development of the twins, emphasizing key
milestones and potential influences on their development. Incorporate relevant theories
such as Piaget’s cognitive development and Erikson’s psychosocial stages. Explore how
factors like genetics and prenatal environment may contribute to individual differences
between the boy and girl twins.
 Infancy: Examine the early months of the twins’ lives, focusing on motor, sensory, and
socioemotional development. Discuss attachment theories, such as Bowlby’s attachment
theory, and how the twins might form attachments differently. Consider how societal
expectations and gender norms may influence the way caregivers interact with each twin.
 Early Childhood: Explore the twins’ experiences during early childhood, touching upon
language development, cognitive growth, and socialization. Incorporate Vygotsky’s
sociocultural theory and discuss how the twins may learn and develop within their
cultural and familial contexts. Address potential gender differences in play preferences
and social interactions.
 Middle Childhood: Investigate the academic and social development of the twins during
middle childhood. Integrate research on gender roles and identity formation, examining
how societal expectations may shape the twins’ self-concept. Utilize relevant theories,
such as Bandura’s social learning theory, to discuss how the twins might acquire
behaviors and attitudes.
 Adolescence: Examine the twins’ experiences during adolescence, including puberty,
identity formation, and peer relationships. Discuss Erikson’s identity versus role
confusion stage and explore how the twins may navigate the challenges of adolescence.
Consider how gender stereotypes and societal expectations may impact their choices and
aspirations.
 Adulthood: Discuss the twins’ transition into adulthood, considering career development,
romantic relationships, and personal identity. Integrate relevant theories like Levinson’s
seasons of life theory and evaluate how the twins may approach intimacy and
commitment differently based on their gender.
 Older Adulthood: Explore the twins’ experiences as they enter older adulthood, focusing
on physical and cognitive changes. Discuss theories of aging, such as socioemotional
selectivity theory, and address potential gender differences in coping with aging and
adapting to changes in health and social relationships.
 Conclusion: Summarize the key findings and insights gained from exploring the twins’
development throughout their life stages. Reflect on the role of genetics, environment,
and societal influences in shaping their unique paths. Emphasize the importance of
considering individual differences, even among twins, and how understanding human
development contributes to our broader understanding of human behavior.
