You are charged by your agency to develop your own substance abuse treatment model for criminal offenders. Based on the readings from the course, present a proposal for what the treatment model would look like.

Milgram: Obedience to Authority
 In psychology there are certain studies that are classic. You can’t escape an introduction to psychology course without knowing about certain individuals, i.e., Freud, or certain studies such as this one and the Stanford Prison Study (next topic).
Your textbook in the chapter on “Social Psychology” (starting on page 39, Ch 14) discusses Stanley Milgram’s famous social psychology experiment, Obedience to Authority.
Here is a video clip that contains some of the original footage of Milgram’s experiment.

David and Sarah are married and have two young children. Both David and Sarah have full-time jobs. David is an accountant, and Sarah is a lawyer. Sarah is working on a tough case at work and often comes home from work in a bad mood. She takes out her frustration on David and the children by yelling and losing patience with them. David concludes that Sarah’s on-the-job stress is affecting her behavior at home. What are some potential sources of stress for Sarah? Which model of work-family conflict do you think best explains what Sarah is experiencing — the spillover model, the compensation model, or the segmentation model? If you were an employer, what types of work-life supports would you offer?
