Preparation In your role as a psychology professional, you have been asked to contribute to a professional association’s quarterly newsletter. You need to select a question, review the most recent research on the topic of your question, and discuss how the research can be applied to professional practice. To develop a research question, think about your areas of interest in psychology, things you are passionate about, and who your audience will be. What type of research question will help you expand your knowledge and skills while contributing to the field of psychology? Here are a few examples: What are the best practices for treating individuals of diverse cultural backgrounds? How does technology impact learning in the elementary school classroom? What might explain the increase in the number of children diagnosed with developmental disorders, such as autism and Asperger’s Syndrome? Is there a relationship between leadership and emotional intelligence? What role does birth order play in personality development? Once you have a research question, look for at least three peer-reviewed articles from scholarly journals relevant to your research question. Look for patterns, as well as different answers to your research question, and then narrow your findings down to about three main themes that will make up the body of your review of the literature. The final step will be to examine how you would apply the findings to your professional practice in psychology and what the findings mean to your area of specialization. Because this is an article for publication, be sure to format it according to APA guidelines. (You may wish to use the APA Paper Template in the Resources.) Requirements In the article you write for this assessment, include the following: Develop a research question to address a problem in the field of psychology. Evaluate the research literature in terms of reliability, credibility, ethics, and value. o Explain the assumptions and biases of the researchers. o What was the motive or reason that the research was conducted? o Does that affect the credibility or reliability of the findings? o Are there ethical issues within the research and were they addressed? o Compare the different research studies. o Did they use the same methods? o Did they have the same or similar conclusions? o Are there flaws in the research? o How well does the research answer the question you developed? Explain how you would apply the research to professional psychology practice. o How are the findings important for your area of psychology? Example Assessment: You may use the assessment example, linked in the Assessment Examples section of the Resources, to give you an idea of what a Proficient or higher rating on the scoring guide would look like. Additional Requirements Format: Include a title page and reference page. Length: 6 pages, double-spaced. References: At least three current scholarly or professional resources. APA formatting: References and citations should be formatted according to current APA style and formatting standards. Font: Times New Roman, 12 points.

Its always best to figure out what you want to argue before looking at the literary criticism. Start by drafting your argumentative thesis. Then spend a bit of time locating articles of literary criticism that you think you could use in your argument about the short story. (If you get really stuck on a topic for an argument, you can browse the literary criticism to see what interpretations other critics have found worth arguing about.) Now draft a 750 1,000word (3-4typed, double-spaced pages) argument using a minimum of TWO piecesof literary criticism. You are, of course, free to use more here is a link to the story: you can also find short summeries of it online like clifnotes. https://www.nlm.nih.gov/theliteratureofprescription/exhibitionAssets/digitalDocs/The-Yellow-Wall-Paper.pdf

There may be some confusion with the way they have the assignment description for the unit 1 individual project regarding the deliverable. The best and most clear way to approach it is to have a title and a reference slide and 6 content slides. Each content slide will cover one of the 6 articles you find in your research. The content slides should each have about 100 words describing the study in the article- what was studied, methods used, what was measured, results, etc. The reference slide will include the 6 references (full reference information) in APA format. Make sure that the articles you choose are actual research study articles. They will have sections that clearly address the research problem or issue, the methods, sample description, measurement/observation process, results, discussion/conclusion. As part of the unit 1 mini-lesson I visited the library site and did a quick example search and show a research study article. You may find it helpful to review it. Getting Started Choose 1 health-care-related topical area or function of interest (e.g., quality improvement, health care systems of care), and combine this with 1 of the areas of prospective practice (e.g., community-based, not-for-profit, acute-care hospital, for-profit urban hospital, public health facility). Using the AIU library, review 6 contemporary, research-based articles of interest that relate to your chosen topical area or function and area of prospective practice. Summarize the problems that the research articles are addressing. Identify whether the research is qualitative or quantitative or a mixed methodology. Assignment Details Create 1 PowerPoint slide that details your topic of interest and its tie-in to health care. Slides 24 should each represent 2 of the reviewed articles. Include the title, author, type of methodology (quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-method). The Speaker Notes area for each slide must highlight the problem statement of each article. All slides should be accompanied by speaker notes.

Imagine that you are running for a state office (e.g., governor, senator, or representative) and you have to prepare a position paper for a debate on controversial issues in the news.You will want your position paper to demonstrate critical thinking, sound logic, valid claims, personal passion, and credible support that is cited correctly because the paper will be provided to the news media before the debate and will be scrutinized by the media and reported on regarding these criteria. Your professor will serve as your close advisor whose job is to review the paper and provide feedback to you on the papers strengths and weaknesses. Introduce your position using a thesis statement in the first paragraph, including a quote, question, or statistic from your reliable sources and an overview of the main points you will cover. (Its important to grab the audiences interest and inform them of what the main and support points are.) Provide three or four (3-4) major points to support your thesis statement. (Put each major point in a separate paragraph.) Provide one (1) paragraph in which you identify and answer an expected argument against your view. Organized arguments and support for claims effectively. Demonstrate personal passion for your position and critical thinking with persuasive language, sound logic, valid claims, and credible support for the claims. Provide two to three (2-3) credible and reliable references (in addition to the text) about current events, which have been published in the last five (5) years and are cited correctly in the position paper. (Wikipedia is not an acceptable source.)

And if this is the case, would such a distinction be justifiable? ii) Interest on term loans is charged on the whole amount of money borrowed and is calculated on a monthly basis whereas in the bank overdraft interest is charged on only the amount overdrawn on a daily basis. Do you personally think that it is reasonable and fair for banks to be allowed to calculate interest rate as described above? Is the bank client sufficiently protected in case the bank decides to overcharge them?
