PTSD Claims: “Is PTSD Contagious?”

Non-Portfolio Task

DEADLINE: Before Class THU OCT 06

The non-Portfolio PTSD Claims Task is a critical reading exercise of an assigned reading. It is designed to take less than two hours to complete and has a one-week deadline. The first part of the assignment is to read or listen to the article “Is PTSD Contagious?” The second part is to spend ONE HOUR selecting very short excerpts from the article and identifying the claims it contains.

Here’s everything you’ll need.
