Would you be willing to do another assignment for me? If so the disorder that was chosen in week one was bipolar disorder.

This assignment is an analysis of the neuropsychological disorder that
supports your Final Project. You will create an outline of the main
points of your Final Project, using your selected neuropsychological
disorder as approved by the instructor in Week One. The Final Project
Outline should be organized into three sections, each main section
having required components.  This outline is both an analysis of your
topic as well as a tool to ensure that you are on the right track with
your Final Project. The more information you provide, the more feedback
you will receive from your instructor, which will be helpful as you
write your Final Project.

Please note:  This assignment may incorporate information from your Week
One assignment, but it must expand on that information.  Additionally,
this assignment must be submitted in formal APA outline style (not in
paragraph form).
