Q 1 of your potential research topics. Part 1: In your thread, explain the scientist-practitioner Topic: The Scientist-Practitioner For this module/week’s discussion board, watch the video clip in the Reading & Study folder titled "The Love Lab," which provides an illustration of a scientist-practitioner. He is one of the foremost relationship experts. This Discussion Board involves 2 parts. Part 1involves watching a video clip and commenting on it, and part 2 involves sharing model/the Boulder model. Explain how Dr. John Gottman uses research to advance his counseling practice. Also, identify 2 or more ways that you could implement the scientist-practitioner model (i.e. how you would use research to inform your practice as a clinical mental health counselor) in your future counseling career. Be specific and provide examples. Part 2: Identify 1 research topic that relates to the field of clinical mental health counseling and share a quote from a peer-reviewed journal article that indicates more research is needed on the given topic (be sure to cite this article and include it as 1 of your 3 peer-reviewed references). You may use of one of the 3 topics that you plan to include in your Topic Selection Assignment due on Sunday. This will allow you to share 1 of your potential topics with classmates and get feedback This will also allow students with similar topics to connect and identify a classmate that they can share articles and ideas with throughout the 8-week term. Reply to at least 2 classmates. Replies must be meaningful and must continue the line of thought associated with the course content and the thread. Be sure to give your classmates feedback on their potential research topics. Try to identify a classmate with a somewhat similar topic that you may be able to exchange emails with and provide support to throughout the term. Note: It may seem on the surface that topics are very different. However, if one student is interested in the impact of self-esteem on relationship satisfaction and another is interested in the topic of the impact of sexual abuse history on relationship satisfaction, they may be able to provide feedback for one another due to the common variable of relationship satisfaction (or there may be a common population, age range, focus on development, or focus on gender).
