Writing Assignment #1: Contrast/Compare the arguments of “Should We License Parents?” (by Jack C. Westman) and “Licensing Parents” (by Hugh LaFollette) pages 182-186 (starting at “Regulating Potentially Harmful Activities” and ending at “Theoretical Objections to Licensing”). Both articles are found in the “File” tab in the “Readings” folder.

So, (A) Read both articles. In a 2-4 page paper (B) explain both arguments using the concepts we’ve covered in class (e.g. premises, conclusion,induction, deduction, valid, etc), (C)contrast both arguments, and (D) indicate which argument is better and why.

 

Regarding (B), explaining an argument requires that you

(i) explicitly state its premises and conclusion,

(ii) state whether it is best interpreted as a deductive or an inductive argument (in other words, is the author trying to provide CONCLUSIVE support for the conclusion or merely trying to show that the conclusion is PROBABLY true) [See P. 70-75, “Judging Arguments”, of your textbook], (iii) if it is a deductive argument, is it valid or sound?; if it is an inductive argument, is it strong or cogent?

 

Regarding (C), both arguments are in favor of licensing parents, but they reach their conclusion in very different ways. I want you to point out the differences in how they reach this conclusion.

 

Regarding the format, it should be a standard essay with a introduction, body, and brief conclusion.  Importantly, you should NOT tell me your view on licensing parents. That will be for the next writing assignment. Also, no works cited/bibliography page is necessary for this assignment.

psychology assignment

/in /by

This assignment has two major sections.  However, you will be creating a single document for submission.

  • In Section I, you will read the case scenarios of three adults who are about to complete their bachelor’s degree in psychology and provide responses based on your reading and research to address the concerns in the scenarios.
  • In Section II, you will evaluate yourself and rate your own credentials in terms of your readiness for the next step after obtaining your bachelor’s degree, should you be interested in pursuing your education further.
  • Please label the sections as Section I and Section II in your document.

Section I

Use the information presented in Chapter 8 of your course text as well as the required websites to assist you in addressing the scenarios. You will also need to do some additional research. Recommended websites are provided and you will find useful information on the websites of graduate programs in psychology and other mental health-related fields.

  1. Denise has decided she wants to counsel children and adolescents. She has a modest amount of interest in reading research findings that are relevant to counseling children and youth. She has little interest in conducting research. She is exploring the following options for her degree after her bachelor’s degree:
    • Master of Arts/ Master of Science in Clinical Psychology
    • Master of Arts/ Master of Science in Counseling Psychology
    • Master of Education in Counseling Psychology
    • Master of Social Work
    • Master of Science in Pastoral Counseling
    • Master of Science in Counseling.
    • Research the programs Denise is considering and list at least two pros and cons for each option.
  2. Raul always thought he wanted to be a clinical or counseling psychologist until he did some volunteer work in a psychiatric clinic and interviewed several psychologists and counselors. Now, as a senior who is months away from graduation, Raul is trying to decide what his next academic and career steps should be. He has a moderate interest in research but does not care much for writing papers. He could see himself teaching, if necessary, but it is not his passion. He already has a wife and two children, so earning potential is important to him.
    • What advice would you give Raul based on the information from this week’s resources?
  3. After many years in the corporate world, John was let go from his company due to down-sizing. He is interested in integrating what he learned in business with psychology. He believes that Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology might be a good fit for him.
    • What types of graduate options are available for John?
    • How competitive are graduate programs in I/O psychology?
    • What does he need to do to make sure he is competitive enough to be accepted into a graduate program?

Section II

For this section, copy and paste the information from Table 8.4 in your text and then rate yourself for each of the items.  Be sure to include an explanation for each at the bottom of the individual sections. See the document with the information attached here. ( Section II )

Final Paper and Annotated Bibliography

Your summative assignment for this course is a Final Paper, which is due in Week Five.  To ensure that you have time to process the material and produce a strong paper, you will create an outline your Final Paper and an annotated bibliography for submission this week. You will receive feedback on your outline and annotated bibliography to help you make your Final Paper more effective.  To begin, review the instructions for your Final Paper, which are listed in Week Five of your course or in the “Components of Course Evaluation” section of this guide.  

Next, select one of the following research topics for your Final Paper:
Is corporal punishment needed to discipline children?
Does violence in the media contribute to violent behavior in children?
What techniques have professionals used to treat insomnia and how effective are those treatments?
What does research show about the effectiveness of the major techniques for promoting weight loss?
Are intelligence and personality stable across adulthood and into old age?

Then, review the PSY101 Outline and Annotated Bibliography Template, which contains the layout for this week’s assignment.  Your outline must be one to two pages in length.  Clearly identify the topic selected, and include major headings for the areas to be considered.  The major areas include:

  • A well-written introduction and conclusion with a succinct thesis statement.
  • Summarize your sources and analyze the findings from your research.   
  • Discuss the key issues and controversies surrounding your selected topic.
  • Identify a variety of perspectives on the selected topic, so that the discussion is balanced and not one-sided.
  • Distinguish how cognitive and behavioral implications might play a role in your selected topic.  What learning principles could factor in with the topic?  What theories of motivation and personality could influence your insights into the topic?  
  • Analyze any additional research that could be done in the future and provide solutions that could be implemented in the present regarding your selected topic.  

Under each major heading, summarize your point about that heading.  Subheadings should briefly summarize research that may both support and disagree with each viewpoint, if applicable.  This outline will form your roadmap for creating your Final Paper.

In addition to your outline, submit a one- to two- page annotated bibliography of your scholarly sources for your Final Paper.  Each source must include the APA formatted citation as well as a summary paragraph.  The summary paragraph should contain four to five well-developed sentences in your own words (do not use the abstract included with journal articles) summarizing the source and describing its applicability to your selected topic.  You are required to use a minimum of five scholarly sources that were published within the last five years and are cited according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.  Examples of scholarly sources include: peer-reviewed journal articles, research studies, professional websites with authored material, and government websites.  Popular internet sites (Wikipedia, Newsweek, New York Times, etc.) are not considered scholarly sources. These sources will also be used for writing your Final Paper.       

For more in-depth assistance with your outline or annotated bibliography, please visit the Ashford Writing Center located under the Learning Resources tab in the left-hand navigation panel of your course. 

*The following example is designed to support you in the completion of the Final Paper Outline and Annotated Bibliography assignment– How to include five relevant scholarly sources obtained from the Ashford University Library in your annotated bibliography.*
