Hello there, please help me finish my assignment !

First, here is the guidelines for the assignment,DEBRIEFING

In accordance with the syllabus of PS3526-Social Psychology: Theories & Applications, you are expected to carry out a Critical Review Paper, on an individual basis. This assignment is summative, and accounts for 30% of the total course grade, and you will be assessed on Learning Outcomes 1,2,3 & 4. The word limit is 2,500 words. Please note: Each student is expected to adhere to the word limit to avoid formal penalization in terms of grade deduction. The upper word limit is 2,500 words. Papers with a deviation of 10% will not get penalized. Materials written above 10% deviation, and above the total length, will not be read and thus, not be assessed by examiners. As a result, this will directly affect the points earned. If all assessed areas are underdeveloped, this will affect the points earned for all assessed areas accordingly.

Your assignment, moreover, involves you carrying out a critical review paper: At all times, your critical review paper should adhere to APA/BPS formatting procedures, and this will be incorporated in the assessment criteria. Furthermore, please note, all work must adhere strictly to the rules and regulations pertaining to Turnitin similarity scores, and AI generated work: Failure to do so will result in serious academic consequences, as well as any work submitted being penalized according to the institutional regulations.

Upon submitting your work, students will be asked to verbally defend their work submitted to Examiners.

The Review Paper will assess Learning Outcomes 1,2,3, and 4. More specifically, the Learning Outcomes state the following:

Learning Outcome 1:

Discuss the social-psychological issues from a theoretical and historical perspective, shown an appreciation of cultural and ethical considerations.

Learning Outcome 2:

Critically evaluate the discourse of Social Perception.

Learning Outcome 3:

Discuss issues pertaining to attitude formation and persuasion, with an understanding of attribution theories and biases.

Learning Outcome 4.

Apply knowledge of social psychological theories to real-life situations.

Thematic Topic . Gender & Cultural Differences in Relation to Conformity: Is there a case for scientists to discuss?

Are there differences amongst men and women in the levels of conformity? You should evaluate your answer considering social psychological theories and evidence. Could gender differences in levels of social influence be real or are they a reflection of societys assumptions about men and women? Further, your answer should reflect on cultural differences, and indeed, are some societies more conformist than others? Provide examples and evidence to support your claims. Finally, and importantly, self-reflect on the topic of conformity, and provide one example whereby you conformed as a function of your gender and cultural background.

Introduction

In psychology, we engage in the scientific study of human thoughts and behavior, which involves evidence through research. Culture, ethnicity, and diversity affect all aspects of both. What does racism look like? How do the perceptions of racism or lack of racism affect a person’s thoughts and behaviors? What are the psychological processes behind how we develop social categories and stereotyping? For this assessment, you will watch A Class Divided which discusses the famous blue eyes/brown eyes exercise developed by schoolteacher Jane Elliot in the aftermath of the Martin Luther King Jr. assassination in 1968.

Before completing the worksheet for this assessment, visit your reading list and watch A Class Divided. This 55-minute video discusses the famous blue eyes/brown eyes exercise developed by schoolteacher Jane Elliot in the aftermath of the Martin Luther King Jr. assassination in 1968.

Diversity Study

The following readings will give you an understanding of the basic terms and theories about diversity study used throughout this course. We explore the psychological processes behind how we develop social categories. This automatic process becomes fundamental to stereotyping. Well also look at race, weight, and age stereotypes to explore how these concepts appear in the world.

Psychology and DEI

As you will read, psychologists are very concerned with maintaining the rights and dignity of all people, and work to reduce the influence of bias and prejudice from a psychological lens. When we consider this, it may come as no surprise that the psychology profession is interconnected with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts. The American Psychological Association (APA) is committed to supporting the rights and dignity of all people and has contributed significant research to help us understand the importance of equitable treatment of all people. Whether you are considering a career in psychology or are interested in how psychologists work to foster DEI, there is a lot to explore on this topic. Review the following interactive piece to learn about the overlap in psychology and the DEI framework from a psychologist, and how it can make your own work more effective and equitable:

Your Assignment

Utilizing the information you gathered for assignment 1, you will create a presentation that summarizes your paper/submission, incorporating any relevant instructor feedback. The presentation should be 8-10 minutes long and be supported by the course material and other relevant references. You may use a presentation tool/method of your choice (e.g., PowerPoint) as long as the presentation is accessible using a PC (not Mac/Apple) and meets the minimum time requirement.

(Note: You must create presentation slides and video record yourself delivering the presentation. You must be visible on camera while presenting. Audio-only submissions will not be accepted. If you do not meet this requirement, your assignment will be returned ungraded.)

The presentation for the scenario should contain the following information:

1. Overview of the scenario

2. Discussion of the applicable ethical code(s)

3. Description and explanation of the ethical dilemma involved

4. Any steps taken in the process of developing a plan for action (e.g., collecting data, gathering more information or consultation, etc.)

5. A suggested plan of action

6. Personal reflection or reaction (i.e., your thoughts about the situation)Information from assignment 1:

I attached assignment 1, this is the feedback given Thank you for your report.

Good statement of the problem, however you left out the key ethics code that makes this an ethical violation: Code 2.06, accuracy in service billing and reporting. Without this the actions of the supervisor may not be considered an ethical violation and must be included here.

Regarding steps to address the problem- you should only respond here with those steps and not statements about it from a theoretical perspective.

Also, you would not be “denying” the supervisor’s request which would not be an appropriate approach as a professional and as an employee you would need to express your concern and why you cannot follow the direction, which is consistent with the instructions in the BACB ethics code that you need to use for your answers in this assignment report. Refusal is a perhaps better way to look at this (although either can affect your employment for the sake of upholding your integrity and ethical responsibilities).

What does “intensify” mean? Please explain or use an action that is an observable, measurable behavior, as you are planning to become a BCBA and hopefully think like a behavior analyst.

Also, what does “mitigate to compliance” refer to? I think this is matter of incorrect grammar. That is not a grammatically correct statement.

What “works” of ethical decision-making research are you suggesting or referring to? Your statement is unclear and/or grammatically incorrect.

For e.g. what do you mean or what is “a structured resource”? Please explain or provide examples when making such general statements.

Documenting communications is a good approach and indicated in the ethics code.

Your process or steps to address the ethical problem are not clearly stated in plain language or terminology that is understandable, and does not appear to align with the BACB instructions nor steps or process identified in the section of the ethics code titled “Application of the Code.” Reviewing this section of the ethics code document will help guide your responses and for your responsibilities when you become a BCBA and are faced with an ethical dilemma. That will also help you understand the steps needed such as attempting to directly resolve the issue internally, and when, if, and where to report potential ethical violations by another behavior analyst.

There is a process to follow as indicated in the ethics code. You need to know when and where to report violations as a BCBA.

Also, please go to this link from the BACB for guidance on reporting ethical violations to the BACB: .

A final consideration is if you would want to continue to be employed by an organization willing to engage in fraud. This is to protect your integrity, uphold ethical standards and also not be held culpable for fraud yourself as you could be viewed as complicit.

Good list of references and correct formatting.

Psy 510 Discussion:

The Module Ten readings are technology-heavy and use neuroimaging scientific language. Try not to get lost in the jargon. The readings provide different uses of neuroimaging with various results and interpretations.

In this week’s discussion, share your thoughts after reading the research about the use of neuroimaging in psychology. In your initial post, answer the following questions:

• How could neuroimaging in psychology research advance the practice of psychology?
• Has neuroimaging advanced to the point of predicting behavior? How might neuroimaging research in predicting behavior be used in psychology?
• Are there ethical issues with neuroimaging and predicting behavior? If so, support any claims you make using scholarly resources (consider the Module Nine readings and resources).

Provide evidence from the readings to support your position on neuroimaging and behavior. PSY 570 Discussion: Give an example of an ethical conflict requiring ethical decision making in your everyday life outside the work environment. Reflect upon the course outcomes and concepts you have learned in this course. Has this newly acquired knowledge contributed to rethinking your daily decisions? How? If not, share some details as to why your daily decisions may remain the same.

For this assessment, write a 35 page literature review, incorporating at least seven peer-reviewed journal articles as sources. At least two articles should be from the last 35 years, and at least one article should be a study from an international source (a journal published outside the United States or written by authors from outside the United States) or one that includes non-Western participants. You may use the articles provided in the reading list.

Write Your Literature Review

Use the for instructions on what to include. Ensure that each main point of your paper is supported clearly with evidence from your sources. Under some points, there are guiding questions to guide your thinking, but be sure to consult the Literature Review scoring guide to make sure you cover all that will be assessed.

In the template, address the following points:

• Explain the key research question and why its important. A distinguished review would also define key psychological concepts and ideas.
• Explain key findings and evidence from among articles. A distinguished review would explain how the key findings and evidence are similar and different.
• Synthesize the major themes among at least five articles into a summary. In a distinguished review, this would include a summary of what is known and most meaningful about the topic.
• Describe the theory that will support your research plan, and for a distinguished review, how the selected theory is relevant to the research problem.
• State a gap in the literature that your study can fill. A distinguished review would use relevant peer-reviewed scholarly articles.
• Clearly state the hypothesis of your research. For a distinguished review, the hypothesis would be both specific and measurable.
• Include an APA style reference for all sources cited.

Once you complete your work in this required template, submit your literature review paper for grading.
