Discussion 2. Valerie Montgomery

A 40 year old male, refugee named Abdel spent 12years in a refugee camp in an African nation. He has lost contact with his wife during this time; she has remarried as she believes he is deceased. Both of his parents have passed away and he has no other family.

He would like to go back to college to receive more education in theology, as he would like to become a religious leader in his community. Abdel now has dental and medical problems as a result of torture that he endured during the 6 years that he was imprisoned. He has anger that comes from fear over the loss of control of his life and money. (Plummer, Makris 2014).

For this case, I chose the "Stress Assessment Questionnaire". This test is available to the public online as well as in clinical settings. This 128 question assessment is written on a 3rd grade reading level and gives a report on "stress, strategies to cope, the personality strategies linked with stress, and the mental health or stability consequence of stress" (University Nebraska, 2014).

The four main points in this assessment are sources, symptoms, strategies and stability; which has 16 dimensions :Work, Relationship, Parenting, Emotional Symptoms, Behavioral Symptoms, Physical Symptoms, Social Support, Self-Regulation, Problem Solving, Distraction, Health, Procrastination, Perfectionism, Self-Esteem, Depression, and Anxiety (University Nebraska, 2014).

Validity and Reliability

This assessment may need more evidence to be proven reliable as the median score was .80. This is considered to be a low coefficient, however the article does not state what number is acceptable (University Nebraska, 2014). There is validity to the assessment as it does share markers from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (University Nebraska, 2014).

Overall the positive side of this assessment is that it is available to anyone online, is easy to read and self-score (University Nebraska, 2014).
