The paper that needs revision is attached.  ma’am the paper consist of the previous sections attached below. Ms. Woods, the attached paper can be revised to what the instructor is requesting which is

Use the work you completed in the previous units to write your Case Study Final Paper. You should have already answered all of the following relevant questions. Now you just need to put it together in a concisely written paper.

  • Problem
    • What is the problem?
  • History
    • Give a brief history of the conditions under which the problem developed and how it came to public awareness. Is there more than one organization involved? If so, how has each contributed to the problematic conditions?
    • Why is it a social problem? What segment of society sees the conditions as a social problem? How have the group or groups concerned about the problem responded?
    • What group or groups have been most directly impacted by the problem?
    • What types of social inequality has the problem produced? Although inequalities of wealth and/or income may be present, look beyond these to address other principle areas where inequalities may be manifest – class, gender, race, ethnicity, health, education, etc.
  • Organizational Culpability
    • Is there evidence of corruption, prejudice and discrimination in the behavior of the organization or organizations that carry primary responsibility for the problem?
    • Does globalization play a part in the problem? Why or why not? Be sure to explain the concept of globalization.
    • What strategy has the institution that bears primary responsibility for the problem employed to legitimize their conduct? How have they justified their actions?
    • What is the organization doing to reduce or alleviate the problem? Is it doing anything? What seems to be the motivation for this action? How is the action being reported to civic groups, governmental agencies, national or international monitoring bodies and the public? Do the efforts at remediation (if there are any) appear to be succeeding?
  • Social Impact
    • Cultural values, norms, folkways and mores are learned and become a part of a people’s way of life through socialization. Have these cultural elements contributed to the problem?
    • What sociological theory of stratification best helps us to understand the nature, extent and impact of the problem? Briefly summarize the main tenets of the theory and explain how it may be applied to the problem under study.
    • What roles have status, power and privilege played in conduct that has been problematic?
    • Have the problem and its attendant conditions influenced the mobility and status attainment of those involved?
    • Does globalization play a part in the problem? Why or why not? Be sure to explain the concept of globalization.
  • Conclusion
    • Can can this problem be solved? If so, identify and discuss at least two possible solutions either working now or being planned.
    • How will this problem affect the future of the social group involved?
    • What further research needs to be done on this topic?

Case Student Final Paper – The Basics

Here are the key things to keep in mind regarding your research Paper:

  • This “research paper” is worth 150 points and should take at least 8-10 pages (MINIMUM 2,000 words) to adequately complete.
  • This research paper has been designed for you demonstrate that you have understood and met the Core Learning Outcomes outlined at the beginning of the course.
  • Throughout this paper you MUST include thoughtful, meaningful examples to support your work and demonstrate your knowledge and understanding.
  • Your paper should include at least three (3) library references to books or academic articles (your textbook COUNTS as one resource and you can use the online Park Library Resources to support your research effort), and at least three (3) other web-based references to support your answers. PLEASE NOTE: You CANNOT use Wikipedia or any other type of “encyclopedia” as a source for this paper.
    Your research paper grade will be determined as follows:

    • 50% = the sociological presentation
    • 20% = analysis, application, evaluation, critique and examples
    • 10% = style, including competence with the APA format (for information on the APA style and format go to the APA Resources link on the Course Home menu) which means a Title Page and an Abstract Page.
    • 10% = logical flow and organization
    • 10% = spelling and grammar

MAKE SURE you format your paper so it is easy to read and flows well. This is a paper, you are not directly answering the questions presented above – you can divide it into logical sections if you like, but this is a paper, the “questions” are guides to help you understand the kind of information to cover.

 

Big Five Theory Of Personality

/in /by

List and define the five traits included in the Big Five theory of personality. What are the limitations of this approach?

Post your message on the topic by Day 3 or Day 5 of this week. Comment on at least 1 colleagues’ postings, selecting, if applicable, postings that have not yet received feedback. Reply to other discussion developments.

 

 

The Big Five theory of personality traits is described as extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism and openness.

1.      Extraversion: Includes characteristics such as enthusiasm, sociability, dominance, talkativeness and energetic. It also refers to people that is shy, submissive and quite as an extrovert.

2.      Agreeableness is individuals who are friendly, warm, trusting and cooperative. On the other hand, individuals who are low on this component are usually cold, confrontational and unkind.

3.      Conscientiousness: dimension includes people who are dependable, courteous, persistent, and responsible and organize. It also characterizes some people as being impulsive, these individuals tend to be careless, undependable and antisocial.

4.      Neuroticism: Are individuals, who are emotional instability, they tend to be nervous, moody, sad and anxious. While emotionally sound individuals are usually calm and contented.

5.      Openness this trait highlight characteristics such as imagination, insightful, witty, original and artistic. Individuals who are low on openness tend to be shallow and plain (Friedman& Schustack, 2012).

The limitation of the Big Five theory is it cannot accurately predict any particular behavior for the simple fact that, human behavior is formed on many different factors, not only personality. The model is also limited by its extensive Universalism doctrines. For instance, when we think of a person, one must consider all facets such as religious beliefs, and philosophical concepts with universal application. The Big Five does not give us a better understanding of gender, culture, age, or personality expressions. Friedman& Schustack (2012) suggest that, “One has to be careful when using the big five personality trait because it can underestimate some avenue of other parts of our personality and the role in a social situation. It sometimes fails to notice personal situation or even the fact that basic dimensions do a better job in describing some person than others (Friedman& Schustack, 2012, p. 275)

Henry Murray created the personality theory which focused on our basic needs which he called psychogenic needs.  He believed that the human needs were mostly at an unconscious level. He defined a need as a potentiality to react in a specific way under certain known circumstances. Friedman& Schustack (2012), “Murray’s needs are as followed:

1. Affiliation- which is the need for closeness that is returned by someone else.

2. Autonomy- is the need for independence

3. Dominance- this is the need to influence or control someone else.

4. Exhibition- is classified as the need to be seen and heard

5. Harm-avoidance- this is characterize as the need to be cautious and avoid injury.

6. Nurturance- is the need to help and care for the weak.

7. Order – is considered to organize things

8. Play – it is the need to have fun and enjoy life

9. Sex- the need for intimacy

10. Succorance this the need to nurtured, loved and controlled.

11. Understanding is the need to explore, simplify and speculate” (Friedman & Schustack, 2012, p. 324).

For one of the needs, provide an example of an occupation that would help to satisfy that need and explain why? Dominance is the desire to influence or control others. An example of an occupation would be a manager because of their need to have control over others. A manager tends to have a high need for power which gives them the ability to rate an employee higher if the employee has the ability to complement the topic. Whereas those with low or moderate need for power rate employees the same.

 

For another need, describe how the need can cause trouble for a person in an occupational role. The need for affiliation can be troublesome in the workforce because their need for closeness, it will not always be reciprocated. In an occupational role if an individual does not feel as if they can trust the people that they work with, then work becomes stressful and the job will not be fulfilling. Studies shows, “People who score high in the affiliation need are unpopular, apt to avoid interpersonal conflicts, and likely to be unsuccessful as business managers. These tendencies may be due to their high level of anxiety about whether other people will like them. They may act in an overly assertive manner to avoid any possible rejection” (Anonymous, 2008, p.195).

LASA 2: Ethnographic Comparison

/in /by

LASA 2: Ethnographic Comparison

Anthropologists are interested in framing broad hypotheses about human behavior. In order to do this, it is imperative to use examples from multiple cultures to ensure that their conclusions are not grounded in a single case.

 

In this assignment, you will be taking on the role of an ethnologist, using multiple ethnographic accounts to study human behavior and culture.

 

Do the following:

 

  • Identify two to three societies to compare such as African, Indian, Chinese, Korean, or Native American. Please note that these are suggested societies; you may choose something not on this list.
  • Choose one aspect of human culture discussed in the course:
    • Domestic life and kinship
    • Subsistence and economy
    • Religion
    • Culture change

 

Using the module readings, Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, write a research paper to include the following:

 

  • Describe the background information of each of the societies you have chosen. You need not analyze this background information, only provide details regarding these societies.
  • Analyze the aspect of human culture you selected for each of the societies.
  • Compare and contrast the similarities and differences between the societies in relation to the topic you chose—for example, standard of living, education, or employment opportunities.
  • Summarize and address human behavior in relation to your topic and based on your examples.
    • Address the realities of life for the cultures you have examined.
    • Examine some of the social problems and public policy issues that become apparent.

 

Your paper should have a title page as well as an introduction section. This introduction section should include the societies you selected as well as the human culture aspect you will be discussing and why it is relevant to anthropology. As an anthropologist, use relevant anthropological terms in your analysis.

 

Support your statements with examples and scholarly references.

The Mozart Effect

In this assignment, you will read an article about the Mozart effect and identify various parts of the research process. This exercise will help you learn how to read a research article and to understand the research process.

Read the following article:

  • Rauscher, F. H., Shaw, G. L., & Ky, K. N. (1993). Music and spatial task performance. Nature, 365. 6447: 611. (October 14, 1993). (ProQuest Document ID 76004658).

In your article summary, respond to the following questions:

  • State the research hypothesis in your own words. Identify the independent and dependent variables.
  • What were some variables the researchers controlled in their study? Why was this necessary?
  • What evidence do the researchers offer as a test of their hypothesis? Is this evidence empirical (observable)? Is it valid?
  • What explanation do the researchers offer for their findings? Does the evidence justify this explanation?

Read the following article:

Jenkins, J.S. (2001). The Mozart effect. Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 94, 170-172.

Based on your readings, respond to the following:

  • Do you think there is any merit in the study (Rauscher, Shaw, & Ky, 1993)? Give three reasons for your position.
  • Does the study take individual differences in spatial ability into ACCOUNT? Explain your answer.
  • What are two ways in which the experiment could be modified to make the results more generalizable?
