R.P. is a 61 year old man who is slightly overweight. He is involved in finance, had a quadruple bypass at age 48. He works long

hours, does not take vacations, and often will lock himself in his room for 48 hours at a time, exiting only to get food and use the bathroom. While visiting his daughter in another city, he went to the grocery store that was 5 minutes away to pick up a few items. He was gone for hours, not answering his cell phone. Three hours passed before his daughter received a phone call from a bartender in the next state over. The bartender said R.P. appeared drunk, although he didn't drink anything at the bar. It is noteworthy that R.P. never drank alcohol, and haven't had a drink since his wedding 30 years prior. Evaluate the information and discuss what you believe is wrong with R.P. and why. Include discussion of the direction his family should take once he returns home and why.

Answer:

R. P. may be suffering a stroke or psychological problems. Your family should discuss the possibility of taking you to specialist doctors who can quickly diagnose his case and provide correct treatment.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, R.P. is showing signs of drunkenness, even though he has not drunk any alcoholic beverage for years. This can indicate psychological problems, showing the need of the R.P. family to take him to a psychiatrist who can help him.

However, R.P. may be showing signs of stroke. These signs can be mistaken for drunkenness, because stroke causes the death of some brain cells, as it does not allow the region where these cells are to be irrigated with blood. In that case, the R.P. family should immediately call an emergency service that will help him as soon as possible.

arlik [135]

Answer:

The social loafing effect is understood as the phenomenon that happens when study, or work groups, are created and one, or more of the members of the group, literally start to slack off on their responsibilities, limiting themselves to only the barest necessary to still meet the requirements of the group membership, but not do anything extra for the group, only relying on the effort of the other members.

In this case presented here, you start presenting that particular behavior and limit yourself to just the portions that will require your utmost attention, as they are the minimum expected of you, but you do not take extra care with the rest of the chapters for study, just with the bare minimum (the notes from your group members) because they are not what you need to fulfill your task. Literally, you are depending entirely on the work of the other members to have full knowledge of all the coursework, because your focus is entirely on the small portions alloted to you.

One way in which the instructor can avoid this situation is by setting tasks for the group that will test the knowledge you have acquired on all the chapters in the coursework, and not just your own. As such, for example, in a presentation activity, the teacher might ask you to come to the front and present the chapters that another member worked on, without having access to his/her notes. This whill show the instructor how much you truly worked on your own coursework independently from the other members of your study group and assess you independently.
