Ethics in writing, psychology homework help

/in /by

Your assignment this week involves exploring this area of ethics and will include three parts:

  • Part One: Discuss why you think plagiarism is so problematic in higher education today. Have you seen examples of it? What do you think you can personally do to help develop your own academic voice? Does it stir up any emotions when you think others are “getting away with it”?
  • Part Two: Write a one- to two-paragraph summary about what you have learned this week. Within this writing exercise, demonstrate three levels of preventing plagiarism within your own writing, and highlight each example in a differing colored font as noted below:
    • (red font) Paraphrased information using a citation. (Author, Year)
    • (green font) One sentence quote from the text that helps support your summary. Be sure to include the exact page the quote is found in your citations. (Author, Year, p. X)
    • (blue font) Free-write. Write something entirely based on what you remember from your reading. This should still be cited, but is all in your own words. (Author, Year).
    • Need assistance with paraphrasing? Examples on how to paraphrase.
    • Not quite clear what you do here? View this worked example for assistance.
  • Part Three: Reflect on how difficult you think Part Two was. Do you have any bad habits you need to break? How much more difficult would it be to avoid this situation when using websites to assist you in research? What strategies could you use here to help you have more success and prevent accidental mistakes?

This exercise should be a minimum of three to four pages and should adequately discuss all questions posed, demonstrate maturating self-awareness. Your text is the only required source, but additional sources are encouraged

Creating an Annotated Bibliography

/in /by

Annotated bibliographies are an effective tool used in the research of a particular topic or issue related to crime, criminals, or the criminal justice system in general. Creating an annotated bibliography forces you to read widely on a topic and begin to evaluate the quality of the research you are sifting through. While time consuming, a high-quality annotated bibliography can cut back on the amount of total time needed to write a report or article. It can also significantly improve the quality of the report or article. One of the key ways to create a high-quality annotated bibliography is through practice and repetition.

For this Assignment, examine the main steps needed to create an annotated bibliography and the type of material that should be included. You must review Chapter 10 and the Learning resources. Then select a criminal justice topic to use for this assignment. Finally, select five peer-reviewed resources that pertain to that criminal justice topic.

The Assignment (2–3 pages)

  • Review Chapter 10, “Annotated Bibliographies” Johnson, W. A., Rettig, R. P., Scott, G. M., & Garrison, S. M. (2015). The criminal justice student writer’s manual (6th ed.). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Pearson.
  • Review the provided learning Resources
  • Describe the criminal justice topic you selected
  • Provide a brief summary of the five peer-reviewed resources you selected
  • Explain why the resources you selected are most relevant to the criminal justice topic you selected
  • Create an Annotated Bibliography for each of the five resources you selected
  • Be sure to use proper APA formatting

Support your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.

I need help with Informal Logic Final Essay

/in /by

This final assignment is designed to involve all of the main skills that you have learned during this course. In particular, your paper should demonstrate the ability to construct a deductively valid or inductively strong argument, clearly and accurately explain your reasoning, use high-quality academic sources to support the premises of your argument, fairly and honestly evaluate contrary arguments and objections, and identify fallacies and biases that occur within the arguments or objections presented.

You will continue to build on the arguments that you are presented in your previous two papers. In particular,, you will present a final improved version of your argument for your thesis that you begin for the Week One Assignment and fully address the objection that you developed for your Week Three Assignment. You will need to research a minimum of three scholarly sources from the Ashford University Library. (For further information about discovering and including scholarly research, take a look at the Help! Need Article tutorial(Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. instructional resource.)

Write: in your paper

  • Explain the topic you are addressing and your position on it. Provide a preview of your paper and a statement of your thesis in your opening paragraph. [Approximately 100 words]
  • Present your main argument for your thesis in standard form, with each premise and the conclusion on a separate line.Clearly indicate whether your argument is intended to be inductive or deductive. Follow up the presentation of your argument by clarifying the meaning of any premises that could use some explanation. [About 150 words]
    • If your argument is deductive, then it should be valid (in the strict logical sense of the word); if it is inductive, then it should be strong. Make sure to avoid committing logical fallacies within your argument (e.g., begging the question). Additionally, the premises should be true, to the best of your knowledge. If one of your premises has a pretty obvious counter-example, then you should either fix the argument so that it does not have this flaw, or later, in your paper (steps three through five) you should address the apparent counter-example (showing that it does not really refute the truth of your premise). Arguments that are not valid, not very strong, commit fallacies, or that have counter-examples that are not adequately addressed will not receive full credit.
  • Provide supporting evidence for the premises of your argument. [Approximately 350 words]
    • Pay special attention to those premises that could be seen as controversial. Evidence may include academic research sources, supporting arguments (arguments whose conclusions are premises of the main argument), or other ways of demonstrating the truth of those premises. This section should include at least one scholarly research source.
  • Explain a strongobjectionto your argument. [Approximately 250 words]
    • Study what people on the other side of this question think about your reasoning and present the best possible objection that someone could have to your argument. Do not commit the straw man fallacy here. Reference at least one scholarlyresearch source. See the “Practicing Effective Criticism” section of Chapter 9 of the course text for more information.
  • Defend your argument against the objection. [Approximately 200 words]
    • Once you have presented the objection, indicate clearly how you might respond to it. It is acceptable to admit that reasonable people might disagree with you or that there might be an area in which your argument could be further strengthened, but you should do your best to explain why your argument is sound or cogent despite the objections.
  • Provide an appropriate conclusion. [Approximately 75 words]

Interrogation

/in /by

Assignment 1: Interrogation

Scenario:

You watch the process of interrogation conducted by a police department. All interrogations are videotaped. However, you are bothered that during some interrogations, suspects are presented with concoctive evidence as a basis for dealing with resistance and denial. But one of the district attorneys assures you that this is legal.

You watch one interrogation of a rape and murder suspect. After the initial interrogation, he is told that he is a suspect in a rape and murder case and that the police have an eyewitness who places him near the scene. (This is true.) The suspect is “Mirandized.” He waives his right to counsel by saying, “I didn’t do anything.” The officers ask him if he wants an attorney, and he says he does not. They show him many pictures of the crime scene and the victim and ask him what he was thinking about when he committed the crime. When the officers ask where he put the knife he used to commit the crime, he says, “I don’t remember.” Whenever he says he does not remember, they ask him to imagine what he must have done. After six hours of interrogation, he confesses to having committed the crime. He says, “I must have done it.” A confession is typed up, and he signs it. He is jailed with no option for bail.

Tasks:

In a minimum of 300 words, compare the interrogation techniques used by the officers with the standard professional practices of interrogators as described in your textbook.

In addition, with respect to the professional practices of interrogators, comment on the following:

  • Signs of submission—when the suspect is ready to admit.
  • The movement from submission to admission.
  • Acceptance of accusation or assumptive questions and the development of admission.
  • Steps to be performed after admission—the use of polygraph and collateral information to develop knowledge about the case being investigated.
  • The process of closing the interrogation in a professional manner.

Submission Details:

  • By the due date assigned, post your responses to this Discussion Area.
  • Through the end of the module, respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts. Taking the viewpoint from the writings of Saul Kassin, a professor of psychology and a pioneer in the study of false confessions, or from any other scientific literature, exchange counterarguments on why or why not there is a significant risk to induce a false confession in the manner in which interrogation was conducted.
