Paper details
This week, you will use role theory to apply to your chosen case study. In other words, your theoretical
orientation—or lens—is role theory as you analyze the case study. Review and focus on the case study. Next,
Submit a narrated PowerPoint presentation using 11 to 12 slides.
Each slide should be written using bullet points, meaning no long paragraphs of written text should be in the
slides.
Please do the write up for the presentation.
The recorded audio takes the place of any written paragraphs, while the bullet points provide context and cues
for the audience to follow along).
Your presentation should address the following:
1. Identify the presenting problem for the case study you selected. (Remember the presenting problem has to
be framed from the perspective of role theory. For example, the presenting problem can be framed within the
context of role functioning).

3.Analyze the social expectations and social and cultural norms revolving around the role, social position, and
role scripts of one of the roles assumed by the client.
4. Explain the role and social position of the social worker in working with the client in the case study.
5. Describe how the role(s) and social position(s) assumed by the social worker will influence the relationship
between the social worker and the client.
6. Identify three assessment questions that are guided by role theory that you will ask the client to better
understand the problem.
7. Identify and describe two interventions that are aligned with the presenting problem and role theory.
8. Identify one outcome that you would measure if you were to evaluate one of the interventions you would
implement to determine if the intervention is effective.
9. Evaluate one advantage and one limitation in using role theory in understanding the case.
Be sure to:
Identify and correctly reference the case study you have chosen.
Use literature to support your claims.
