There are two questions in the assignment. For each question, you have to write a 500-word answer. the instructions are in the document I uploaded.

In preparation for this paper, select a woman who has made significant contributions to the field of psychology between the years 1850 and 1950. Based on your selected individual, prepare a 1,400 word paper in which you describe her background, theoretical perspective, and contributions to the field of psychology.
USE IT TO GUIDE YOU WHEN YOU WRITE. CONSIDER THIS YOUR RUBRIC:
1) Please meet the length requirement. I find that it is difficult to fully answer the questions at hand in anything less than the minimum length requirement.
2) Format your paper in APA format. There are good references for how to do so on the UOP library page.
3) Make sure your thesis is stated in your introduction and every paragraph somehow ties back to that thesis. A good way to do this is to end your introduction with something like “The purpose of the following paper is to…”
4) Do not use any first person (“I” “me” “we” “our”) or second person (“you”) in academic writing. Try to speak in a scholarly third person omniscient tone. Do not make “I believe” or “I feel” or “I liked this I didn’t like this” statements. Don’t use any first person examples. Use research instead. Use evidence. Let’s save our personal experience for our fun discussions in the discussion forum!!
5) Subject headings are not required, but I find that they really help students organize their thoughts.
6) Do not use too many direct quotes. A few here and there are great, but not too many. I want to hear YOU!
7) DO NOT PLAGIARIZE. I have a sixth sense for it. Just don’t do it.
8) Try to avoid rewriting something you are reading. Read it. Digest it. Then write it in your own words, citing your source, of course.
9) YOU MUST CITE YOUR SOURCES! Whenever you take information from a source, whether it is the text or anything else, you MUST credit where that information came from in the form of an in-text citation. Cite in APA format (never use a url as an in-text citation). This does not mean you have to quote something. Just credit the source with a citation.
10) Aim to use at least two sources in each paragraph…or else you are just rewriting something someone else wrote. I want to see how you can research a topic and integrate what you learn from multiple sources in order to come up with your own answer. Always cite though.
11) Use more than the text book. Its a great place to start. Then venture off to the UOP library database.
12) Only cite sources that you actually read. If you want to cite something that comes out of an old book that you didn’t read, cite the source you actually got it from (i.e. Freud, 1908 as cited in Smith, 2010).
13) Do not use another source’s reference list. This is a form of plagiarism.
14) Wikipedia, about.com, and other such sites are not accepted as good resources. Avoid web sites that basically answer the question for you (like essays-for-sale sites).
15) Please proof read. I find it is handy to read it out loud. Write Point is a good editor as well.
16) Make sure your conclusion ties back into your thesis.
17) Include a reference page in APA format
18) Do not include a lot of biographical information in papers that don’t need it. For instance, with the women in psychology paper bio is ok! But for the theoretical perspectives paper, it is not necessary where Watson went to school or that Skinner wanted to be a novelist. It is just “filler”.

For this assignment, you will need to choose a topic in the field of health psychology on which to focus. Remember, the narrower your topic is, the easier it typically is to find appropriate articles. Next, locate three peer-reviewed journal articles that are research articles relevant to your chosen topic. Be sure to check out Skills Builder 6.1 and 6.2 to guide you in choosing a topic and effective searching.
Finally, using the guidelines and resources you have reviewed this week create an annotated bibliography focused on the three peer-reviewed journal articles that you have chosen.
In the paper you submit this week, start off by briefly summarizing the topic you have chosen. Then beneath your summary include your annotated bibliography (one entry for each of the three articles). Provide a link to each article for your instructor as well.
Length: 4-5 pages
Resources: 5 resources
Your annotated bibliography should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.

We make attributions every day about our own behaviors and the behaviors of the people that we interact with. And depending on what we attribute to the cause of a person or our behavior this directly affects our attitudes and behaviors toward that person. If our attributions are correct, then outcome can be positive, as they can help us to work more effectively with that person or to make better decisions for ourselves. However, if we make an error in our attribution of the cause of a behavior, then our own following behaviors can negatively compound the situation.
Consider the following situations that we have all experienced:
You go out to lunch with your friend and find that your waitress is a bit absentminded and is not in the best of mood as she takes your order and serves you. You tell your friend that this lady should not be a waitress and needs to find a new job because her attitude stinks.
You pull into a gas station and there is only one free pump, but you cannot get to it because there is a person at the first pump. You think to yourself “What a jerk, I can’t believe they did not pull up to the second pump.”
Why were these attributions and assumptions made in each situation? Are they most likely accurate or not?
What are some alternative explanations for the behaviors of the waitress and person pumping gas? Why do we typically not assume these later explanations but rather jump to the conclusions made in the examples?
If you were the person in each of these scenarios and took a minute to look back at these behaviors would you have the same thoughts about yourself (you are in the wrong job or that you are a jerk)? Why might the attributions of your own behaviors be different than your attributions of others’ behaviors?
With all of this in mind how will you apply this to your future attributions and associated behavior when faced with these types of situations?
