There is much controversy that surrounds the etiology of addictions. Some theories suggest that addiction is related solely to genetic factors, while others identify environmental factors as the primary influences on addictive behavior. Most contemporary theories support the idea that both genetic and environmental factors contribute to substance addiction. However, there is still much debate about this in the field.
Use the module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research chemical substance addiction.
Select a category of chemical substances with addiction potential (for example, alcohol, stimulants, or opiates). In this assignment, you will examine this selected substance in detail.

How might a person become addicted to that category of chemical substance? Describe the process.
What are the various genetic and environmental factors that contribute to the development of substance addiction as related to that category?

Support your responses using your readings and authoritative resources. Incorporate theory and factual information in your response such as examples of research findings related to addiction.
Write your initial response in 2–3 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Denial is one of the most challenging defense mechanisms used by individuals with addictions. This term has been familiar to the substance abuse treatment nomenclature for many decades. It applies when a substance abuser denies the existence or severity of his or her problem. Treatment for clients in denial is typically challenging. In these cases, the focus of intervention is on helping the client acknowledge the problem. The only way treatment will be successful is if the client recognizes the existence or extent of the substance abuse.
The contemporary perspective is that denial occurs in the “pre-contemplative” stage of the change process (Prochaska, DiClemente, & Norcross, 1992). The denial of clients in this stage is not confronted as it was in older forms of treatment. It is viewed as a necessary beginning on the journey to sobriety. Addressing the denial requires encouraging the client to identify the ill effects as well as the perceived benefits of his or her substance abuse. The client in this stage will attempt to work toward finding internal motivation to change based on the insight gained about the effects of his or her use pattern.  
Use the module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research denial used as a defense mechanism.
Download and review the case study.
Respond to the following:

How is the use of denial by the substance-abusing client evident in the case?
What other ways might substance-abusing individuals display denial?
What approaches could you use to work with the client in the case study?

Support your responses using your module readings and authoritative resources. Incorporate theory and factual information in your response.

A gear manufacturer is planning next week’s production for four types of gears. Because there are limited resources in the plant for production, the manufacturer can outsource the gears by purchasing these gears from a regional supplier. The regional supplier can supply a maximum of 400 units of each type of gear. The table below shows the exact demand for the gears, the revenue per unit, and the outsource cost per unit if the gears are purchased from the supplier. The manufacturer generates the same revenue per unit for the gears regardless of whether the gear is manufactured in their plant and then sold to their customers or outsourced from their supplier and then sold to their customers..364px;=”” collapse;=”” 12px=””>Gear TypeGear AGear BGear CGear DDemand650500450550Revenue$13.75$12.50$16.90$18.50Outsource Cost$9.20$9.75$11$11.75When the gears are manufactured in the own plant, the gears must be processed through three different departments: forming, hardening, and deburring. The table below shows the processing time (in hours) for each type of gear in the departments as well as the capacity for each department and the cost per hour for processing the gears in those departments. The cost per hour for processing the gears is provided so that you can calculate the manufacturing cost..364px;=”” collapse;=”” 12px=””>ProcessGear A(hrs./unit)Gear B(hrs./unit)Gear C(hrs./unit)Gear D(hrs./unit)Dept.

(Hint: processing costs in the second table effect only the profit for the gears that are manufactured and not the gears that are outsourced)a) How much profit does the company for all gears they make and buy in your solution (the value of the objective function)? (enter to the nearest integer)b) If you could add one hour of capacity to any department to increase profit – adding one hour of capacity to which department would generate the biggest increase in profit: Forming, Hardening, or Deburring?c) Which of the following constraints have slack? (Choose all constraints with slack): Forming, Hardening, or Deburringd) In your solution, how many Gear C’s should the company make?e) If the cost per hour of the hardening process increases to $12/hr. – how many Gear D’s should the company make with this new process cost?

Basic Writing Tips to Share with Students
Dr. Nina Haydel
You cannot write the way you speak; a reader does not function as a listener. Writing has its own set of conditions. Writing gives you the opportunity to revise your ideas and the way you present them. You must always consider your audience: what does the reader already know and what does he or she need to know in order to make sense of what you have written? Decide your purpose and deliver what you promise. By revising, you can make significant changes as you move through the drafts; continue to add, delete, move ideas around, and re-arrange your points until you have supported your thesis and achieved your goal. Consider the following tips:
You need not always begin at the beginning. The reader will never know where you have begun, once you have completed your final draft. Start with the section that is easier for you to write. Then, put the puzzle together later.
Brainstorm and write your first draft in a stream-of consciousness flow of words. Concentrate on putting your ideas on paper. This draft is for your eyes only.
Keep the assignment, question, focus, or thesis very much in your mind. After you write each paragraph, re-read it and ask yourself, “So what?” in reference to the theme. If you are not making any contribution to the theme, strike that paragraph or imbed that idea somewhere else. Everything you write must have relevance.
Be specific, and include interesting, supportive details.
Avoid words like good, bad, thing. They have no specific, concrete meaning.
Review your work for redundancies. If you have already said something, do not say it again.
Watch out for repeated wording. Look for synonyms that make your writing live.
Save all your notes, drafts, and especially a copy of your final draft.
When you think you are finished, put the “final” draft away for several days and return to it with a fresh perspective.
You are not cheating when you have someone serve as a peer evaluator. Don’t allow your reader to do the revising for you. Just listen to the comments.
Look at the logic of what you have written and rethink your approach.
At some point, consider the work completed. A writer can revise forever, as there are always new ways of stating the same idea. Abandon the writing; it will never be finished.
Remember , it is the writer’s fault when a reader cannot understand the writing.
Dr. Hayes Do Not Dos
1) Do not start subsequent sentences or paragraphs with the same word/term/phrase
2) Do not use the word thing or derivations thereof
3) Do not use “it” at the beginning of a sentence, and avoid use of “it” altogether
4) Do not use contractions, e.g. don’t
5) Never use etc.
6) Do not use more than one “and” in a sentence
7) Do not have a paragraph that is longer than a page
8) Do not have one sentence paragraphs, even two sentences paragraphs are suspect
9) Do not use first person
10) Do not think you will only write the paper once
Remember , technical papers should be alive with information, not prose.

Third-party Payment
How does third-party payment distort the market for health care? If it is so distorted why does every wealthy country insist on using third-party intermediaries to purchase health care? Why do we carve out a separate payment program for our elder citizens?
