20661 | SOWK 789 | 01 | Independent Research Project: Clinical Use of Forgiveness | DiBlasio | Approved as an Advanced Research requirement for students in the Clinical concentration for the specializations of Families & Children; Behavioral Health (Mental Health); Aging; and Health. Students will review the clinical forgiveness intervention used in a study and will become familiar with the overall results. The data from this study have been collected from marital couples that were assigned to one of four experimental groups: forgiveness treatment; spiritual forgiveness treatment; problem-solving treatment and a no-treatment control. These data have been collected and the course will NOT involve the collection of data. Students will be asked to become familiar with the test questions that were used and from them to think creatively in designing a way to analyze the concepts of the study. The instructor will take the student’s ideas and he will design a statistical way to test them on the existing data and in turn explain the results to the student. The instructor will then give guidance to each student for how to report the findings. No previous knowledge in experimental statistics is necessary. The assignments include a review of the literature paper and a final written report. This course REQUIRES students who can: (a) work independently, think creatively and demonstrate initiative and motivation; (b) have flexibility and patience to be involved in an advance research pursuit where knowledge and familiarity builds as the course progresses; (c) attend ALL Monday class meetings (some classes will be devoted to individual/small group meetings) AND once or twice during the semester the student must be able to arrange a time on campus to meet with the instructor other than on Mondays; (d) invest out-of-class time to reading and other class activities (students accountable to document sufficient weekly out-of-class efforts). | 4E22 |
27310 | SOWK 789 | 02 | Independent Research Project: Public Health and Financial Social Work | Hageman | Approved as an Advanced Research requirement for students in the Clinical and Macro concentrations for Health & Behavioral Health specializations. This course offers students the opportunity to conduct a primary quantitative data analysis project demonstrating the association between health, financial threat and financial capability. This course uses the theoretical frameworks of public health and financial social work as pertaining to the formation, implementation, analysis and dissemination of introductory research questions, methods, and analyses. Introductory research methods are used to examine Public Health Financial Social Work research questions as they pertain to raising awareness of the link between health and personal finance among social work students and their clients. The public health lens approaches social problems through an emphasis on prevention and the promotion of health while financial social work examines challenges and opportunities to increase the financial stability of vulnerable populations. | 2E10 |

27306 | SOWK 699 | 09 | Special Topic: Housing and Social Policy | Singer | This 3 credit elective course will prepare students to assess and understand the dialectic between social policies and human well being, with a focus on shelter in its many manifestations. “Home is where the heart is”, so Pliny the Elder opined. What then of the hearts of our neighbors living in barely habitable housing, repeatedly facing eviction, or without any housing at all? In this course, students will (a) reflect upon the concepts of social justice and social change and their relationship to housing, social policy, and participation; (b) examine the processes through which housing and homelessness services are financed, constructed, maintained, and evolve; (c) study the relationships among housing, health, human growth and development, neighborhoods, and communities; (d) develop sufficient knowledge of the background and context of housing and homelessness services in the U.S. so that they might predict and influence future directions of these goods; (e) understand the relationships between housing markets on the one hand, and policies and programs serving the poor and the disadvantaged on the other hand; (f) evaluate program changes and proposals for reform in the institutions providing housing, related services, and financing; (g) become familiar with the context of housing provisions/financing and homelessness services in other nations; and (h) investigate the role of social workers as service providers and change agents in access to emergency shelter, homelessness services, and housing. (Note: This course does not meet the Advanced Policy curriculum requirement but may be used as an elective.) | 4E26 |
