• Entries should be NOT TWO PAGES BUT 450-550 WORDS Do NOT include fillers like name, date, instructor, title, etc)

1. Given the unprecedented situation the entire world is facing today, I would like students to choose ANY concept that we’ve covered this semester (it does not have to come from Unit 3), and explain how it relates to the circumstances we face now. Please write the concept in capital letters the first time it appears, and do NOT provide a definition in your paper.
2. The goal of the journal is to provide you with the opportunity to elaborate on and apply ideas presented in the reading. This type of critical thinking should lead to your success in the course. Give a real-life example of something that you read about. In the process, you might also share your reactions to the reading material, critically evaluate an issue, or relate a personal concern or experience to course content. Journals will be graded on thoughtfulness and thoroughness, but not on the specific views you express. . Papers should only include content, not your name, date, teacher etc. Papers that include that information as a means of taking up space on the two pages will be assigned an automatic zero. The quality of your writing DOES COUNT. Please use correct grammar and punctuation, and a clear, coherent writing style. You will lose points for failing to proofread (and correct!) your work. A paper with errors cannot earn more than 5 points.
3. Higher quality entries typically include critical thinking, which could incorporate any combination of the following elements:

• Identifying values, biases, and assumptions;
• Analyzing arguments and counterarguments;
• Analyzing the kinds and quality of evidence;
• Critical thinking about research, critical writing and reading;
• Drawing conclusions.

GRADING:

Your paper should contain four elements:

1. Key concept, written in CAPITAL LETTERS only the first time it is mentioned
2. Example of key concept as it relates to the pandemic
3. Explanation of what makes the example a good illustration of the key concept
4. Further analysis, which is likely to be integrated with the explanation in higher quality papers, but can stand-alone as well. In Social Psychology, the focus is on applying the example to life experiences.

Application Journal Grading Rubric:

25 points = Excellent in every way: complete, organized, and demonstrates insight/critical thinking; one specific key term is capitalized once; example illustrates the selected term; no errors in grammar, spelling, etc.

20 points = adequate, but lacks depth; concept is applied correctly; no more than one or two minor grammatical or spelling errors

15 points = complete and correct, but lacking organization, clarity, and/or focus; key term not underlined or too many underlined; some errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, or any combination of these; ideas not fully developed, superficial (perhaps because the example is too obvious, etc.)

10 points = incomplete or incorrect application of selected concept, or many errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, or any combination of these

5 points = term comes from a chapter other than the one assigned, or is otherwise far off topic

0 points = nothing submitted

That is the instructions given by the professor

( We can choose any word from our chapters I chose Mass Hysteria because I thought it would be a good fit for COVID – 19. If you think otherwise let me know and I will send a list of other words that you could use).

Address feedback and provide revisions for research proposal BPD gaps in research and sexuality

Upload paper with comments on first page and the highlighted areas need to be addressed and revised.

Please highlight areas that have been changed

#1

Statement of the problem: Present the description of the research problem and an explanation that describes how the research problem led to the current research question.

Faculty Comments:

Presents the description of the research problem, but does not fully explain how the research problem led to the current research question (RQ), or does not present the RQ in a question format.This is extremely light and does not seem to be linked to any specific research lit.Also you say you’re doing a qual study but most of this sounds like you’re looking at this as a causal relationship which would by definition make this a quant topic.

#2

Purpose of the study: Describe what information is needed in order to advance the knowledge base.

Faculty Comments:

Describes the information needed to advance the knowledge base, but does not specifically identify the gap in the knowledge base. Need to make sure you are using the terms right and linking back to the lit as far as the research need.

#3

Significance of the study: Explain the major themes identified in the literature.

Faculty Comments:

Does not explain the major themes identified in the literature. This does not seem to be linked to any particular research

Cardiovascular Health: A Woman’s Issue?

Prior to engaging in this discussion, read Chapter 6 in your text, watch the Noel Bairey Merz: The Single Biggest Health Threat Women Face and the Go Red for Women Presents: ‘Just a Little Heart Attack’videos, and review the Instructor Guidance.

Analyze the new research indicating that heart disease may affect females more than males and comment upon how gender impacts our behaviors related to disease. How has the fact that most prior research has studied heart disease in males changed the ways in which women perceive the risks of heart disease and heart attacks?   Considering the videos, using Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Model, what sociocultural beliefs contribute to the increased risk for heart attacks in women?  Provide a statement from at least one of the required and/or recommended resources that supports your reasoning.
