During Covid-19, all interviews must be conducted online to mitigate the spread of the virus.

** Ideally, a man and a woman from the same country (born and raised). Your interviewees must have lived in the country for at least 10 years up to their adulthood so they have first hand knowledge of the culture. USA is not an option. If you are Chinese, China is not an option. A classmate born and raised in the US but living in a Chinese household is not a suitable cultural informant. 

*** A signed note must include duration of the oral interview and the platform used to conduct the interview. Email exchanges cannot replace oral interviews.

You should not start your research until you find the two individuals for your interview.

Please upload both files at the same time. If you are unable to upload both, submit the signed note (not the Engagement file) in the comment space.

Abstract, title page, and conclusion
the abstract can be 4 sentences:

a) State the purpose of the research paper.
b) State the research question.
c) State the hypothesis/assumption (The author assumes… ).

Instructions
In this case study, you will analyze a testing scenario using your knowledge of testing and ethics.

Part A: Review the Case

A psychologist is redesigning a website to make it more appealing to clients. On the website, she lists several tests she learned about in graduate school. She also posts images of the tests, including the Rorschach inkblot cards. She plans to use the website in-place of administering these tests in-person.

Part B: Case Analysis

In a 4-6 page paper, addressing the following information:

1. Describe your immediate reaction to the scenario. What are the details you immediately noticed? What questions did the scenario raise about testing?

2. Identify and explain 3 factors that impact performance on projective tests.

3. Identify and discuss 3 reliability and validity concerns with the scenario.

4. Identify and explain at least 3 ethical concerns as per the APA Ethical Codes and how you would resolve the concerns.

Integrate 4 academic sources on psychological assessment to support your position.

Final Directions

Please ensure that your paper is in APA format from the 7th edition (2019), using 12 pt Times New Roman or Sans Serif font, double-spaced, with a title and references page. An abstract is not necessary. The paper should integrate a minimum of 4 scholarly resources. I will allow you to use the first person to explain your immediate reaction, but remember to keep your writing in the third person for the rest of the analysis. Also, I suggest that you use each of the aforementioned numerical points as respective subheadings to best format your paper.

Directions for Conclusion/Reflection-
You are to write a well-written essay format response to the survey. You are to write until you feel as though youve written a well-crafted response, and be sure to answer all parts.
Make sure you include:
Evidence of research (Citations).
Summarize your survey findings
Were the findings from the survey as you expected initially? Why or Why Not?
Which graph do you feel best represents your data? Why?
Did you use the data the way you stated in your introduction? Why or Why Not?
Why did you choose to address this particular idea for a survey? Give details! Tell why you decided to address a specific changes or implementation in the school or community and you must back it up with research (Citations). 
If you had to conduct another similar survey: (a) What would you do differently? Why? (b) What would you keep the same? Why?
Any other content that would be relative to the survey/research that would help the reader know what you did in your survey and why you did it.

Read the following article as attached

Elkington, J. (2018). 25 Years Ago I Coined the Phrase Triple Bottom Line. Heres Why Its Time to Rethink It. Harvard Business Review Digital Articles, 25.

The author explains the concept of Triple Bottom line, and mentions that a few organizations like Novo Nordisk, have adopted this approach very well. It is also mentioned that B-corps are also configured around TBL.

For this discussion: Identify a B-corp of your choice. Briefly explain about the company and its offerings (products and services). Discuss how the company ensures that Triple Bottom Line is well integrated into the companys DNA. Provide specific examples of what the company has done to ensure this.   

Other instructions: Word Limit Upto 500 words. Provide the link for the company website. May also like to add video links about the company’s activities. No APA citation needed.

Paper Three: MLA Synthesis Research Paper

Introduction:
For paper three you will write a research paper using sources weve read this semester about universal basic income. By the time you begin drafting paper three, you should have a thoughtful understanding of the conversation occurring about a universal basic income. Your goal in the paper is to join that conversation by writing a thesis driven synthesis paper. The position you take is entirely up to you. You can agree, disagree, or some combination of both. Your paper will not be graded based on what position you take but on how well you make a reasoned case through a synthesis of the sources. 

As you read the sources, pay close attention to how each source overlaps and differs. Again, although sources may examine the same topic, they differ in focus. Your goal in this paper will be to move beyond reporting on what the sources say to a synthesis of the sources.

What Is Synthesis
Synthesis is an opportunity to create new knowledge out of already existing knowledge, i.e., other sources. You combine, synthesize, the information in your sources to develop an argument or a unique perspective on a topic. The main purpose of a synthesis essay is to make insightful connections. Those connections can show the relationship(s) between parts of a work or between two or more works. In order to write a successful synthesis essay, you must discover meaningful connections among the sources. For further explanation and an example of a synthesis research paper, please review the sample paper and synthesis handout on Blackboard. Both items are located in the Readings for Paper Three Section.

Although the sample papers differ in subject matter, they should give you an idea of how you might organize your paper and make connections among the sources. Subtopics can be a useful way to organize your paper. For instance, you might have a paragraph that looks at historical examples, a paragraph that identifies proposed models, a paragraph that discusses problems a universal basic income attempts to solve, a paragraph that presents counterarguments etc. There are other possible subtopics. As you will see by carefully reading the sample papers, body paragraphs in synthesis papers should contain a paraphrase or direct quote from two different sources. Think of each body paragraph as a mini conversation that you are having with the sources. If your body paragraphs contain only one source per paragraph, its a good indication that youre reporting and not synthesizing. Again, this should become clearer when reviewing the sample paper(s).

Audience: Your ENGL 1301 Class Length: A minimum of 1200 words in 12pt, Times New Roman font, single-spaced with 1 margins. Format: MLA format for header, in-text citation, and works cited.

Sources: You must use at least four of the sources listed below; You can select one additional source not included below (for a total of 5 sources) but it needs to be an article authored by a named, authoritative source.
