ASWB MSW Exam Part 1 Questions AndAnswers.
A social worker facilitates a group of men who are married to patients with breast
cancer. This group aims to help members cope with the stress of having a spouse with
cancer so they can effectively adapt to these changes. During group meetings,
members typically gather and discuss the effects of breast cancer on their spouses and
how to cope with those effects. This is most likely which of the following type of group? -
\Support group
There are many types of groups characterized by their unique purposes. Support
groups tend to help members cope with life changes, such as having a spouse with
cancer, so they can more effectively handle life events.
Educational groups are primarily meant to help members learn about themselves and
their society, such as a group about diabetes. Socialization groups aim to help members
with social skills and improve interpersonal relationships. Self-help groups, such as
Alcoholics Anonymous, are groups in which members lead the group and are the sole
providers of support.
Erica is a high school social worker. One of the students, a young girl named Lin,
seems to be having behavioral problems. She only seems to conform to expectations
when closely monitored, and does so chiefly out of a fear of being punished. Using
Kohlberg's stages of moral development, should Erica be concerned? -
\Yes, because Lin appears to be operating at the preconventional stage of moral
development
If Lin is truly behaving appropriately only because she is frightened of consequences,
she is operating at what Lawrence Kohlberg called the preconventional stage of moral
development, which is appropriate only for children younger than nine.
The conventional stage of moral development would be expected, as it encompasses
adolescent moral development, according to Kohlberg. If Lin were operating at the
postconventional stage of moral development, it would be unexpected but not
unwelcome, as this stage is something Kohlberg described as being too mature even
for most adults.
Alison has a client whose landlord is refusing to allow the client to have his service dog
in his apartment without paying a pet deposit. Alison calls the landlord and explains that
the law states landlords have to accept service animals without a pet deposit. What is
Alison doing for her client? -
\Advocating
Alison explains the law to the landlord and attempts to get him to abide by it so that her
client can have his service dog. This is similar to what a lawyer would do in this
situation, but without the legal background and the legal standing.
