Posttraumatic Stress Disorder PTSD In Research Proposal

One weakness, the researcher notes, however, is the implementation of a specific example of implementing related literary techniques. Application to the School Setting

The implementation of specific literacy strategies appropriate to aid children of abuse, as Haeseler (2006) recommends, the researcher contends, would prove to be a positive practice. The researcher would be concerned if this would add to the teacher's current stress and/or work load.

Reflection

The article by Haeseler (2006) enhanced the researcher's appreciation of the value and versatility of literature. The researcher experienced second thoughts regarding the role of the teacher as a school psychologist, albeit, in addition to his/her current responsibilities. Perhaps, schools should consider contracting with professional writers to regularly implement this type therapeutic intervention for children with PTSD.

CONCLUSION

Comparing and Contrasting

The articles by Cook-Cottone (2004), Brown et al. (2006), and Haeseler (2006) present pertinent information for teachers in regard to children with PTSD, with the first two directed toward the school psychologist.

Each article, however, the researcher asserts, appears to place all responsibility...

This particular point needs to be reconsidered, the researcher contends, with more focus on the involvement/interventions of the parent.
