Use the attached template for the journal review on Sarno et.al. (2011). In the assignment, be sure to include the questions and then type your answers under each question. Paper should be betwee 4-5 pages in length. Some questions on the template specifically mention the minimum number of paragraphs expected in order to fully answer the question. DO NOT USE DIRECT QUOTES. You should summarize in your own words.
Here are the instructions that you were given during Week 1 for the Final Project. Before submitting your Final Project at the end of Week 11, review the instructions to make sure you have included all the required elements in the assignment you submit:Select one of the following cases. Then, select a specific subject for the focus of your paper that can be discussed in a 10- to 12-page research paper. Imagine that you are assisting an attorney in the case who has requested that you research the specific focus area, and provide a concise report to inform the court about the topic.Required cases and possible focus subjects:Jodi Arias, convicted of killing her boyfriend· Battered woman’s syndromeFinal Project Requirements· Submit all the required weekly Assignments throughout the course that are related to your Final Project. Completion of each project Assignment component contributes toward a successful final project grade.· Base your paper on the research you gather and not on your opinion. You may use both popular and scholarly references. (Resources explaining proper use of scholarly and non-scholarly resources are available in the Learning Resources section.)· Use APA format, in text and in the reference list.· Ensure that you have minimal writing errors.· Final paper length: 11 pages total, not including the title page, abstract, and bibliography.· Final paper structure:o Brief biographical summary (2–3 paragraphs)o Introduction to the issue to be discussedo Summary of the current scholarly research about the issueo Conclusion (1–3 paragraphs)Week 7proj comments – this looks good, however, be sure to include research describing what BWS is, and research regarding BWS and subsequent murder cases. The paper has to be 10-12 pages not including the Title, Abstract or Reference pages, so you will need more material than just facts about the case. This is where psych research intersects with the law :)Week 6 proj comments – this is a very good annotated bibliography. However, remember your research must be directly applicable to your subtopic on the Jodi Arias case and contribute to the court regarding her case. The last article you cited here has no relevance as it is related to homicides in the UK. Also, regarding your first article, as you know this was not a murder-suicide, it was straight murder.
Week 5 discussionFor this week’s discussion, complete these tasks:Explain three circumstances where a researcher would choose a longitudinal study over a cross-sectional study.Identify two advantages and two disadvantages of a longitudinal study and a cross-sectional study, giving examples of each.Then, provide a specific example of a question that could be addressed with a longitudinal study and explain why that developmental design is preferred.
You have had plenty of opportunity to interpret coefficients for metric variables in regression models. Using and interpreting categorical variables takes just a little bit of extra practice. In this Discussion, you will have the opportunity to practice how to recode categorical variables so they can be used in a regression model and how to properly interpret the coefficients. Additionally, you will gain some practice in running diagnostics and identifying any potential problems with the model.To prepare for this Discussion:· Review Warner’s Chapter 12 and Chapter 2 of the Wagner course text and the media program found in this week’s Learning Resources and consider the use of dummy variables.· Create a research question using the General Social Survey dataset that can be answered by multiple regression. Using the SPSS software, choose a categorical variable to dummy code as one of your predictor variables.By Day 3Estimate a multiple regression model that answers your research question. Post your response to the following:1. What is your research question?2. Interpret the coefficients for the model, specifically commenting on the dummy variable.3. Run diagnostics for the regression model. Does the model meet all of the assumptions? Be sure and comment on what assumptions were not met and the possible implications. Is there any possible remedy for one the assumption violations?Be sure to support your Main Post and Response Post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA Style.Wagner, W.
