This is your first APA reflection essay. Remember, do not include a cover page or put your name on your paper.

For this assignment, you will be doing your own literature review using legitimate scholarly sources such as GALILEO or Google Scholar. The issue that you are responding to is what needs to be done in an American multicultural society to protect the humanity and rights of million of Americans against the threat of fascism? What steps related to organizing, educating, and looking out for the welfare of Americans who are being attacked needs to be taken to create a truly multicultural nation?

Make sure your essay is at least three pages, includes references and citations where needed, and is in APA format.

You will then write a four-to-five-page paper (using APA format) that reviews the two articles. Note that your title page, abstract page, and reference page are not included in the 4-5 page requirement.

Content will be a literature review of your research. To be successful in this paper your response must:

1. What does prior research tell us about your topic?

What research existed on this topic prior to the publications of the articles you chose? This will be described in your articles (see your research worksheets!). Your Introduction should thoroughly address what prior research existed relating to your topic.

1. What did your two articles find?

You should be addressing each article in detail. Your summaries for each article should include the information that you found in your research worksheets. Make sure that you integrate them well into your response (meaning do not just copy and paste the research worksheet, make sure there is organization and flow to how you approach each articles findings).

1. Why are the findings important? What would be the take away of the combined results?

This section is really important! You are doing more than comparing and contrasting in this section. In this section you should be analyzing how your articles together provide a better understanding of your original topic (from Step 1). How are these articles advancing the understanding of your topic? How did they continue from prior research? What new findings did they include and what new research questions could now be investigated by their collective findings? Here you are creating your own discussion section of the combined article findings.

1. How do the findings apply to everyday life?

Explain how EACH of your two articles applies psychological science principles and research findings to everyday life.

I have to write an essay in which I illustrate the psychodynamic model of Ronald Laing through a brief reference to a work in the artistic/literary field, which in this case is The Panther by Rainer Maria Rilke. The essay must be written using APA fourth edition referencing style and must not exceed 450 words. I would like a comparison to be made with the work regarding inner imprisonment (a theme addressed in the poem), the loss of the external world, alienated consciousness, and fragmented identity, all themes that are also present in Laings works. It is important that only a few lines be devoted to the connection between the work and Laing, while focusing primarily on the psychological aspects described by the author in his writings. His work Knots is also attached, and I would like it to be mentioned as a starting point to highlight the comparison through its almost literary language and its representation of mental entrapment. The sources from which to obtain the information for the essay are also attached.

make sure to make this viewed in first person as if Im the one seeing whats going on. will include pictures of further instructions
