Depression in later life is usually diagnosed on the basis of two clusters of symptoms: feelings and physical changes. In a 3-page paper, written in APA format using proper spelling/grammar, research the topic of depression in the elderly and address the following:

1. How would one know if an elderly relative had clinical depression or was sad because of specific life changes and losses?

2. What are the consequences of depression in the elderly?

3. Which behaviors would indicate a person going through depression needs therapy?

4. What kind of therapy would a professional recommend and why?

Be sure to include APA citations for any resources you used as references.

Introduction

This discussion allows you to expand your understanding of the challenges faced in the criminal justice system when ethical decision-making and group mentality occur simultaneously. Sometimes, people make decisions based not upon what is ethically right or wrong, but on the behavior of their peers and what they observe in their environment. Seeing that behavior as a standard operating procedure, if you will.

Discussion Question
Research a case or example of corruption within the criminal justice system that was considered the normative behavior by the participants. What was the agency? Who was involved? What was the ethical breech that was deemed to be acceptable and that was mitigated via group mentality and unspoken standard operating procedures (SOP)? Do you think this is still an accepted practice and mindset in criminal justice agencies? Whether yes or no, support your answer with substantial empirical data.
Your initial post must be at least 200250 words  with references and citations

Submit an annotated bibliography upon which Paper 3 is to be based. This will act as the foundation of your research and guide your paper. Annotated bibliographies also gather the reference materials and help summarize the articles, books, etc. you will be using in your paper.

Submit an annotated bibliography with at least seven (7) valid sources that you will use as the basis for your paper.

Begin your third paper by choosing an ethical dilemma that might arise in the criminal justice system. Submit an MSWord document of 250 words on the ethical situation you chose and why you think this is important to address. This will be the foundation for Paper #3.

The first question is opinion based so that you can begin the discussion immediately. You must apply your assigned readings to subsequent questions.

First, lets start with some questions based on your opinion:

1. Have you ever been curious about a health-related issue? For example, why is obesity an epidemic in the United States? If so, please share, in the form of a question, what you have been curious about. What methods can you undertake to find the answer to your question? Do you find research to be a practical thing or strictly academic? Justify your response.

Now lets apply what youve learned in this module:

2. Use the Excelsior Library to find two different articles, one scholarly article and one popular article related to the same topic. (Example: obesity among children)
List the full APA citation for each article and a link for each article.

3. Why did you classify each article the way you did?
Give examples from your articles that helped you determine whether they were scholarly or popular articles.

4. Which article would be most useful to you if you were writing a paper on this topic? Why?

ach student will complete an individual integrative learning project. After reflecting upon the material learned in this course, write a minimum 1-page essay on how the information learned in this course will prepare you for success within the DBA program. Provide specifics. While formal current APA format is not required, a cover sheet must be included in the submission, and does not count towards the 300 words of content.

Please respond to the following:

Indian religions are complicated. There are thousands of deities, numerous scriptures, and indigenous tribal customs, all boiled down into what the English mistakenly called Hinduism in the 1800s.

Main discussion questions for the week:

How does Dharma and the yogas simplify an understanding of this complexity?
Which of these systems would you incorporate into your life today? Why?
Explain why a guru would be necessary to help you understand these two systems.

Introduction

In this activity, you answer a discussion question based upon the various models of ethical decision-making. Criminal justice professionals are constantly being faced with decisions: ethical, tactical, procedural, legal, etc. In this instance, you discuss the nature of an ethical decision as the rationale for a specific action(s). You will need to fully comprehend the materials in order to satisfactorily participate in this discussion.

Discussion Question

Based upon the assigned reading, do you think criminal justice professionals base the majority of their decisions on the deontological or teleological model of ethics, specifically, the categorical imperative versus the utilitarianism approaches? Explain your answer in full and give examples to support your position.
Your initial post must be at least 200250 words, references and citations.

Based upon the article, The Role of Experience in Prioritizing Adherence to SOPs in Police Agencies by LaFrance and Day, do you think that a criminal justice professionals experience should guide their discretionary decision-making? Or, should they adhere strictly to the policies and standard operating procedures as written by their agency?
Give an example when discretion might be used as you explain your answer. Also, make sure you support your position with citations and references to literature.
Your initial post must be at least 200250 words  reference and citations.

Paper guidelines for your chosen policy or procedure: ( Policy from the criminal Justice system topic)
Applying a major criminological, and/or sociological theory of your choosing (i.e., classical, positivist, strain, labeling, etc.), you will develop a proposed policy that you think should be implemented in the criminal justice system.  In a 57-page paper you will give a brief overview of the policy you wish to create.  What is its nature? Who is bound by this policy? Why is there a need for this policy?

Next, analyze the five theoretical models given by Freiberg and Carson. Based on your analysis, upon which model do you think this policy implementation decision should be based? Why?

Make sure you use citations and references to support any opinions you posit or statements you make.
