CREATE A PAMPHLET – ADHD (aimed at parents and family)
condense critical information and translate relevant academic literature from developmental psychology into an accessible client-based format. As a minimum standard, you must cite FIVE articles from peer-reviewed journal articles. The Pamphlet is NOT an essay, so avoid long sentences and lengthy paragraphs of information. You may use bullet-points, and creative structure and design to present information so that it is easily digestible for your target audience. (ENJOYABLE AND EASY TO READ) Pamphlet Tips • Present a balanced view based on relevant academic literature. • Use clear and short sentences targeted at the general public • Avoid personal judgement/opinion, emotional pleas and sensationalized clickbait language. Instead, use objective, non-biased language so as to not to isolate or stigmatise groups in your target clientele/audience. E.g. mothers who cannot breastfeed are not ‘irresponsible’, children who have conduct disorder are not ‘problematic’ or ‘broken’. The information pamphlet must adhere to the main goals of developmental psychology; Description, Prediction and Explanation, and Optimization (see page 16 of your textbook for what these are). Students are encouraged to make pamphlets as creative and interesting as possible but all pamphlets must include: 1. A definition of the main issue (description) and explanation of any jargon 2. A discussion of the main issue (prediction and explanation) within the parameters of the developmental period it relates to (i.e., prevalence rates, individuals most at risk, impact on development, relation to other issues) 3. Evidence-based client advice or information designed to optimize development (i.e., warning signs, ways to reduce impact/prevention/enhance development) 4. All information MUST be evidence-based, using peer-reviewed journal articles and textbooks. 5.The inclusion of additional information sources for clients, for example, relevant hotlines, websites, professional services, or support groups. *** please feel free to use colours and get creative with images with this pamphlet as if you would want someone to be drawn to it***
