In your initial post, include the following:

  • Describe how those two theories might be utilized in practice in the career path that interests you.

  • Analyze and describe how the APA’s Ethical Principles of  Psychologists and Code of Conduct might affect the implementation of  your theorist’s personality assessments.

Guided Response: Review several of your colleagues’  posts and respond substantively to at least three of your peers by 11:59  p.m. on Day 7 of the week. You are encouraged to post your required  replies early each week to stimulate more meaningful and interactive  discourse in your discussions. Continue to monitor the discussion forum  until 11:59 p.m. Mountain Standard Time (MST) on Day 7 of the week and  respond to anyone who replies to your initial post. Peer responses may  vary in length but should be detailed and thought provoking. Your grade  will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your  responses.

In your responses, offer a substantive discussion to your peer’s  initial post. Pose questions that could encourage the application of  this area of the discussion. Look for peers whose posts have not yet  been responded to and reply to these so that everyone has a chance to  reflect and develop their knowledge more fully.
