Assignment task:
Our initial post for this discussion should address two main parts, personal reflection, and MAKSS reflection. Both parts will help you to prepare for the Week assignment.
Part 1: Personal Reflection
- Consider your own biopsychosocial characteristics and how more visible or salient aspects of your identity have resulted in experiences of affirmation or marginalization.
- Reflect on your reaction to exploring the impact of your biopsychosocial characteristics on your own and your family's experience.
- Describe what thoughts and feelings come up as you consider the ways in which you have been privileged and/or marginalized.
Part 2: MAKSS Reflection
- Discuss your MAKSS results and include your thoughts and reactions.
- How do the results make sense, based on your lived experiences as described in the first part of the discussion?
- What surprised you (or didn't surprise you) about your results and why?
