Analyze the Kitty Genovese incident in terms of the Latane and Darley model of helping. Which factors do you think were most important in preventing helping? 

/in /by

2 research articles are required every week. Research articles must be sent via email to instructor no later than Friday at 6:00 pm.

Brief Summary of the class syllabus:

PSYC 4606-01 Adverse Childhood Experiences & Historical Trauma. This course is an introduction to the study of adverse childhood experiences (ACES) and its implications for the fields of social work, education, epigenetics, medical/health sciences and psychology. Emphasis is placed on the 10 categories of adverse childhood experiences and how the stress and trauma of adversity can be transferred through generations. This course is an intensive study of the impact that historical, collective and racial trauma have on physical health, psychological and societal outcomes.

Basically the instructor wants two articles every week I was not informed however she has allowed me to turn in what I’ve missed I need 7 articles 1 page in length each or more related to or dealing with trauma in children mostly. Below is the Aces Study you can use if need be but mostly you are picking the topic yourself and doing a small little research paper on it be sure to site the website you get your info from.  I need 7 DIFFERENT article research papers. 7 DIFFERENT!

Each questions needs to be answered with at least a half of page or longer. Four pages in total

1. Analyze the Kitty Genovese incident in terms of the Latane and Darley model of helping. Which factors do you think were most important in preventing helping?

2. Recount a situation in which you did or did not help, and consider how that decision might have been influenced by the variables specified in Latane and Darley’s model.

3. Consider your own personality and compare it to that of some other people you know. Do you have an altruistic personality? Do you know people who seem to have one?

4. Imagine that you knew someone who was ill and needed help. How would you frame your help to make him or her willing to accept it?

5. Assume for a moment that you were in charge of creating an advertising campaign designed to increase people’s altruism. On the basis of your reading, what approaches might you take?

Discuss the implications of this t test as it relates to the research question. Conclude with an analysis of the strengths and limitations of the t test.

Discussion: Social Factors in Violent Crime

Many social factors can contribute to violent crime. Issues of poverty, general economic inequality, and inequality based on ascribed characteristics such as race may all have an impact on the prevalence of violent crime. In 2015, 69.7% of all persons arrested were white and 26.6% were black (FBI, 2016a). African Americans made up 38% of the prison population (Federal Bureau of Prisons, 2016). Social factors such as different opportunities and different legal representation may account for this disproportionate representation. Rural communities have been considered safer from violent crime, but a large metropolitan city may have a higher prevalence of violent crime due to areas of increased poverty. When looking at violent crime statistics, it is important for a forensic psychology professional to look at the social factors that contribute to violent crime.

In this Discussion, you analyze the UCR to determine what social and cultural factors might explain the prevalence of violent crime.

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review the Learning Resources.
  • Locate the UCR data concerning violent crime by race, gender, and population.
  • Select a population (city or county) to analyze data for the Discussion.

Please read the instructions thoroughly!

Specific methods of data collection (e.g., surveys, interviews, observations) produce specific types of data that will answer particular research questions, but not others; so here too, as covered in previous weeks, the research questions inform how the data will be obtained.  Furthermore, the method used to collect the data may impact the reliability and the validity of that data.

For this Discussion, you will first consider sampling strategies. Then, you will turn your attention to data collection methods, including their strengths, limitations, and ethical implications. Last, you will consider measurement reliability and validity in the context of your discipline.

Position A: Probability sampling represents the best strategy for selecting research participants.

 

Post a restatement of your assigned position on sampling strategies. Explain why this position is the best strategy for selecting research participants. Support your explanation with an example and support from the scholarly literature. Next, select a data collection method (e.g., surveys, interviews, observations) and briefly explain at least one strength and at least one limitation. Then, identify a potential ethical issue with this method and describe a strategy to address it. Last, explain the relationship between measurement reliability and measurement validity using an example from your discipline.

  • Explain sampling methods
  • Explain strengths and limitations of data collection methods
  • Apply strategies for addressing ethical issues in data collection
  • Develop an annotated bibliography
  • Apply APA Style to writing

Be sure to support your Main Issue Post and Response Post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA Style.
