1. Summarize your chosen topic, highlighting your personal

motivation for selecting it.

The topic I have chosen for this project is Emotional Disorders. According to

Price & Woody “Emotional disorders (i.e., depressive and anxiety disorders)

are a set of chronic and often recurrent psychiatric disorders that are

associated with significant impairment in quality of life, productivity, and

interpersonal functioning”, (2022). My personal motivation behind choosing

this topic is not only because I suffer from emotional disorders, but also

because my end goal after college is to be either a licensed mental health

counselor or psychologist. Therefore, I anticipate working with a plethora of

children and adults who will suffer from their own emotional disorders.

Learning what I can about emotional disorders will not only equip me with

the necessary tools to provide effective support for others facing similar

struggles, but I can also utilize my findings to help with my own struggles.

Bibliography

Article 1: Schlack, R., Peerenboom, N., Neuperdt, L., Junker, S., &

Beyer, A. K. (2021). The effects of mental health problems in

childhood and adolescence in young adults: Results of the KiGGS

cohort. Journal of Health Monitoring, 6(4), 3.

The study presented in the article of Schlack et al (2021) has the

following main objective: to investigate the lifelong trajectories of mental

health-related issues that manifest themselves in childhood or adolescence

and are linked to the physical health and well-being of young adults. Based
on the KiGGS survey, the work investigates the ways that affective disorders

in early development stages affect subsequent motor development and

health status indicators. These mental 'problems focus on mental health

during childhood and adolescence and show that emotional disorders such

as anxiety and depression have negative impacts on the physical growth of a

child or teenager (Schlack et al, 2021). It provides an overview of how these

disorders cause stress, alteration in hormone secretion, and alteration in

behavior such as sleep disorders and eating disorders. Such disruptions bring

long-standing physical well-being problems like obesity, cardiovascular

diseases, and weaker immunity among emerging adults. The article also

focuses on key strategies, such as the timely prevention of developmental

risks for children to enhance their health-related outcomes.

Article 2: Sanghvi, P. (2020). Piaget’s theory of cognitive

development: a review. Indian Journal of Mental Health, 7(2), 90-96.

Sanghvi's (2020) article provides a critical analysis of the theory of

cognitive development, as postulated by Jean Piaget with special emphasis

on developmental processes as they relate to adolescence and emerging

adulthood. It combines elements of Piaget's stages, especially the formal

operational stage, and works out how these cognitive structures engage with

emotion disorders in adolescence. The article correlates Piaget's theory with

a discrete cognitive impairment related to affective disorders in adolescents.

It points out how the teens having emotional disorders have issues with

planning, understanding, and inferential, imaginative/topical capabilities, all


of which are characteristic of Piaget's formal operational level.

Neuropsychological workers also report that emotional disorders can

interfere with their stress handling, decision-making, and their capacity for

imagining the future, all of which cannot occur in cognition. Sanghvi (2020)

emphasizes a need for Interventions therapeutic and educational for this

interrupting developmental corporeality to support cognitive recovery,

during developing affective difficulties.

Article 3: Potterton, R., Austin, A., Robinson, L., Webb, H., Allen, K.

L., & Schmidt, U. (2022). Identity development and social-emotional

disorders during adolescence and emerging adulthood: a systematic

review and meta-analysis. Journal of youth and adolescence, 1-14.

The purpose of Potterton et al., (2022) systematic review is to explore

how social-emotional disorders affect identity formation throughout

adolescence and emerging adulthood. This article brings together the

outcomes of different studies in order to reveal the role and impact of

emotional disorders in identification processes. To understand the impact of

emotional disorders on identity, the article uses Erik Erikson's psychosocial

model, specifically the "identity versus role confusion" stage. Specifically,

youths and emerging adults suffering from emotional disorders or

experiencing anxiety and depressive symptoms experience problems in self-

image, self-competency, and social relationships (Potterton et al., 2022).

Finally, the research shows that emotional tasks prove to be immune to

resolution; hence, identity formation results in identity diffusion. In this


respect, the article stresses the general conclusion on environment and

interventions for coping with identity and emotion.
