Bellwork 4/18/14 What patterns have you seen in Holden’s behavior? How have you seen his behavior shift in the last few chapters? Anything concerning you’re noticing about his behaviors?

What if it’s outside of his control? The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (or DSM-IV) is the set of guidelines developed by the American Psychological Association to aide in the proper diagnosis of a variety of mood, social, and personality disorders It was developed in the early 1950’s and has been through 5 revisions Appropriate use of the diagnostic criteria is said to require extensive clinical training

Your task (With the understanding that none of us are trained clinical professionals, this process is for literary analysis purposes only! Please be respectful of all conditions presented and considerate in your explanations and assumptions) Read through the packet of selected DSM-IV conditions As a group, decide which one you think is closest to what you know about Holden so far Gather at least five pieces of evidence (including direct quotes, please!) from the text to support your diagnosis

As you read Chapters 18-23: Continue to gather evidence to support a “diagnosis” for Holden. Jot down quotes, page numbers, notes that you could use to write a short report on his behavior This will be one of your options to write about for Portfolio Piece #2! Be ready to share your notes on Wednesday, April 23rd Shakespeare’s birth- and death-day!
