Written Assignment #1 This written assignment will examine the psychological significance of addiction. Through the project, the student will explore the nature of addiction and examine the extent to which it can or cannot be applied to behaviors outside of drug use. Discuss the nature of drug dependency and addiction. It is important to include the concepts of tolerance, withdrawal, physical dependence, and psychological dependence. Also, discuss the various influences on drug use (including biological influences, psychological influences, and social influences). Considering this knowledge, can individuals become addicted to behaviors that do not involve drug use? For example, is it appropriate to say that people are addicted to pornography or video games? In the strictest psychological definition, the answer is no. However, many individuals feel that such behaviors do follow the same pattern as drug addiction and thus should be considered addictions, which would require a broader definition of the term addiction. State your viewpoint regarding this issue. Whether you agree or disagree with the idea that problem behaviors that do not involve drug use should be considered addictions, it is important to construct your argument in relation to the concepts of tolerance, withdrawal, physical dependence, and psychological dependence. Written Assignment #1 is worth 200 points or 20% of the final grade in the course. The project will be between 3-5 pages in length (not including title page or reference page). Three sources are required for this written assignment. However, if the student feels that more would be appropriate, he/she is welcomed to use more outside sources. It is important to cite all resources used on a reference page at the end of the paper. Written Assignment #1 is due in class and in the course dropbox on 9/16. All projects turned in from 9/17 to 9/23 will receive a 25% deduction. All projects turned in from 9/24 to 11/10 will receive a 50% deduction. No credit will be given for Written Assignment #1 after 11/10.
