Each student will select a celebrity of their own choosing who has had (or has) an addiction problem—whether a substance use disorder, or another behavioral addiction such as gambling, technology, eating, dieting, shopping, sex, etc. Students are to research the addiction of their celebrity and analyze the case from a biopsychosocial perspective. In addition, students should provide a race, class and gender analysis of their case study. Finally, students should discuss addiction treatments/approaches that were undertaken or suggest possible strength-based treatments and harm reduction approaches that they could have taken. This should all be summarized in a 3-4 page, double-spaced paper. Please select appropriate resources (at least 3 reliable articles, books, etc.) to analyze and discuss the celebrity’s addiction.
It is NOT acceptable and is CERTAINLY plagiarism if students download or cut and paste information from the Internet without properly citing it. Other forms of plagiarism include copying another student’s work and claiming it as one’s own, or purchasing or stealing term papers from an outside source.
