What was the conclusion regarding criminal behavior?

 

It looks like your method is the multiple case study method. For the proposal, you will need to specify exactly what cases you will use. You will also want to read some chapters in research methods texts to learn how to properly write a multiple case study method.

Overall Instructions:

For this assignment, you will submit your full draft thesis. A thesis must have a substantial research component, present an original argument using proper academic writing conventions including carefully documented primary and/or secondary sources, and contain the following elements per the End of Program Assessment Manual for Master’s Programs (EOP Manual) and specifically the National Security Studies End of Program Guide:

A refined introduction (Mandatory)
Updated Title Page (Mandatory)
Copyright Page with Declaration (Mandatory)
Dedication Page (Optional)
Acknowledgement Page (Optional)
Abstract (Mandatory)
Table of Contents (Mandatory)
List of Tables (Mandatory if tables are used in your thesis)
List of Figures (Mandatory if figures are used in your thesis)
References (Mandatory)
I. Introduction: This section provides an overview of the topic that you are writing about, a concise synopsis of the issues, and why the topic presents a “puzzle” that prompts your research question(s), which you will include. This section will typically be 5-8 pages. This section can be preceded by an epigraph that creates interest in the topic. Ensure that you follow proper format for epigraphs!! For this section you can draw from your Research Question(s), Statement of the Problem, and Purpose Statement and Thesis Proposal assignments.

II. Review of the Literature: All research projects include a literature review to set out for the reader what knowledge exists on the subject under study and helps the researcher develop the research strategy to use in the study. A good literature review is a thoughtful study of what has been written, a summary of the arguments that exist (whether you agree with them or not), arranged thematically. At the end of the summary, you should have circled back to your research question that remains to be answered. It is written in narrative format and can be from 12-18 pages depending on the scope and length of the paper. You wrote a version of your Literature Review for the Assignment due in Week 6.

III. Methodology and Research Strategy: This section provides the reader with a descriiption of how you are planning to conduct research. It explains what research approach you have chosen, and why. The theoretical framework section is included, which develops the theories or models to be used in the study and shows how you have developed testable research hypotheses. This section includes a discussion of the gaps in the literature and how your thesis will address those gaps. It will include a justification and explanation of the theory or model that is used in the thesis. It describes any special considerations and defines any limitations and terms specific to this project, if necessary. This section will range from 5-8 pages Please draw on your research proposal as you should have already developed a preliminary strategy for the Proposal that you submitted at the end of Week 4.

IV. Findings and Analysis: This section provides the results of your research and the analytical arguments that will make as a result of your findings. In a quantitative project, this section would provide the results of the data collection and an analysis of what it illustrates in empirical terms. In a qualitative project, you will do the same even if there is no quantitative component. For an empirical qualitative project, you will provide your analysis of the variables you identified and explain what your research findings are. How did your independent variables affect the outcome (your dependent variable)? Did you prove or disprove your hypothesis? What new information have you discovered, if any? This section will range from 10-15 pages.

V. Conclusions: This section will contain the concluding analytical arguments based on what research has revealed to answer the research question. Like any conclusion, it should provide a synopsis of the project, the strategy, and the results and what they add to the body of knowledge. This section should also offer suggestions for avenues of future research for other scholars, as all knowledge is evolutionary. This section can be 5 – 7 pages depending on the scope of the project.

References (or Bibliography): This section will contain all references, cited in Turabian format and alphabetically arranged. Entitle this section as either “References” or “Bibliography” depending on the type of citation you use in the rest of the paper.

 

 

Submit the final, complete version of your Health Communications Campaign Strategy Worksheet This includes all of the following components:
i attached my 1-5 draft but make this the final 1-10 and follow the guidelines thank you feedback i received from my teacher :this is great work. You’ve really done a good job reframing your audience, and your goals and messages are a solid start. The biggest thing that I see that could cause you some problems is that you’re tackling a really large communication goal. Changing behaviors about exercise, food, consistent medication, and accessing services is a lot to change in one short campaign. I wonder if it might be more effective if you could focus on just one of these sub goals. Just getting folks out for a daily 15 minute walk, for example, is a pretty big lifestyle change! Incorporating new foods is another big change. If you focused on just one “action” (you can of course tie it to others , ie.”this is the first step” then you might be able to make more of an impact. Have you ever read the book “Tiny Habits” by BJ Fogg? He talks about how making incremental changes builds up to lasting change. I bring this up b/c eating and moving are some of the hardest habits to remake, particularly when there are structural or systemic issues to address (e.g. time, money, cultural patterns/beliefs). I will be okay if you want to “stay big” here, but I do think your campaign will be able to go beyond scratching the surface if limit your goals.

Case Discussion: Smithfield Custom Furniture (Part 3)

It is now 2015, and Smithfield’s Custom Furniture has continued to grow. Its new product line of lower-priced furniture was an immediate sensation in the marketplace. The company now has 344 stores and 21,000 employees. The company now has a total of 12 international retail stores evenly divided among Spain (3), France (3), Germany (3), and England (3).

Margot Smithfield, Jonas Smithfield III’s only heir, is now running the company. She has a master’s degree in design and an MBA degree. She has been running the company for 3 years.

Margot Smithfield and the 12-member board of directors have been assessing an opportunity to acquire You Figure it Out, a moderately profitable 51 store chain of ultra-modern furniture. You Figure it Out’s furniture and furniture-related accessories are all made in China and sold only in the United States. Their retail stores are located in Texas (6), California (13), New York (15), Nevada (4), Florida (9), and North Carolina (4).

Margot and her board have reasoned that the company has excess capacity at their 5 manufacturing plants. They know that producing a new line of furniture would mean retraining several hundred of their workers in the new production process. However, if this change is successfully executed, it would significantly increase the profitability of the You Figure It Out brand. The company also sees a market for the ultra-modern style of furniture in Smithfield’s existing foreign markets and believe the current Smithfield stores in Spain, France, Germany, and England could display some of the new furniture along with their traditional lines of furniture and take orders that would be produced in the US plants. Other than that, the Smithfield Custom Furniture product line and the You Figure It Out brand would operate as they currently do.

They have decided to conclude the purchase with You Figure It Out executives and want to announce the decision to their workforce as soon as possible.

The Management Issue: Margot Smithfield is concerned she will overlook something important in her communications to employees and the board’s decision-making.

Your Task for Your Initial Post

Margot Smithfield is asking for your input to help her understand and ensure she does not overlook anything important to introducing a new furniture product line to the current Smithfield product line. She has requested that you send her a single-spaced summary, using only course readings and proper citations, that addresses (in the order they are listed) the issues she believes she needs to be aware of related to communications and decision making.

Explaining to her, using not more than 4 sentences, why employees need to understand the need for Smithfield to continue to be innovative.
Selecting the 3 “noise” factors that are most likely to interfere with the successful launch of the new product line. Using not more than 4 sentences for each of your 3 noise factors, you will explain to Margot why you selected each of the 3 noise factors you selected, including their potential negative impact on a new product launch if it is not eliminated or reduced.
Identifying for Margot Smithfield the 3 most significant obstacles to change that you believe will make the acceptance of the new product line difficult for employees to support. Using not more than 4 sentences for each obstacle to change you identified, you will explain to Margot why you selected each of the 3 obstacles to change, including each obstacle’s potential negative impact on a new product launch if it is not eliminated or reduced.
Selecting for her and explaining, using not more than 4 sentences, the one specific change management technique or tool you think is most likely to pave the way for a successful launch of the new product line.
Explaining to her, using course readings on decision making and in no more than 4 sentences, the most likely decision-making oversight the board could make in the launch of a new product line.
Note: You are expected to use in-text citations and create a reference list in answering the above 5 issues.

Format for Your Initial Post

You must use the following numbers and corresponding headings for each part of your response to a particular issue.

Understanding the Need for Innovation.
Significant “Noise” Factors
Obstacles to the Acceptance of Change
An Effective Change Management Technique
Possible Decision-Making Oversight
Two Options for Your Required Replies to Classmates

Option 1 is to find an issue of the classmate to whom you respond with which you disagree. You must state why you believe there is a better manner to address a particular issue that differs from your classmate’s response. You must state the major idea associated with your choice and why that idea applies to the issue more appropriately. Your reply must be supported with course materials, in-text citations, and references.

Option 2 occurs if you agree with all of a particular classmate’s initial posting responses. In that case, you must expand on one issue that your classmate presented. Your reply will provide more depth or other related factors that your classmate also should consider. Your reply must be supported with course materials, in-text citations, and references.

Note: You may use either Option 1 or Option 2 for each different classmate to whom you respond.

Instructions for Responses to Classmates’ Posts

A response posting should be a minimum of one short paragraph. Word totals for these posts should be in the 75–150-word range. Your response posts’ goal is to extend discussions already taking place or pose new possibilities or ideas not previously voiced. Your goal should be to motivate the group discussion and present a creative approach to the topic. Do not merely agree or disagree, repeating what a classmate stated or what you have already stated. Explain the ‘why or how’ with supporting evidence and concepts from the course material. Include in-text citations and associated references within a reference list.

FACT CHECKING. COMMON SUBSTANCE ABUSE MISCONCEPTIONS
Here are just a few substance use and abuse common beliefs. Decide if you think the statement is TRUE or FALSE, then click on the content.
PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS ARE SAFE WHEN THEY COME FROM A DOCTOR.
MARIJUANA IS NOT ADDICTIVE.
TAKING A BREAK FROM SUBSTANCE USE ELIMINATES THE RISK OF ADDICTION.
SUBSTANCE ABUSE LARGELY AFFECTS PEOPLE FROM LOW SOCIOECONOMIC BACKGROUNDS.
MOST PEOPLE WITH TRUE ALCOHOL AND DRUG ADDICTION ARE NOT EMPLOYED.
SUBSTANCE ABUSE IS LARGELY A PROBLEM WITH MINORITY GROUPS.
DRUG USE IN URBAN, BIG CITY AREAS IS MORE PREVALENT THAN IN SUBURBAN OR RURAL AREAS.
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO BECOME PHYSICALLY DEPENDENT ON COFFEE.
Something is wrong with each of these claims. There really isnt “proof”! These are AI generated to show you AI can be good to get ideas, but you need to do your own homework too! AI very rarely can offer supporting evidence, data and statistics and that is what is needed for proof. This exercise shows how the AI comments fall short of proof.
The added proof suggestion shows how a good question and data could give the support to prove it. Look at them carefully as they will be used on our next discussion.
STEP 1: Pick ONE of the myth topics in the “Myths and Misconceptions” page in this module as a thesis.
This MUST be in your first sentence. For example “(Myth you chose) is not true.”
STEP 2: Find two acceptable reference sources to support the chosen thesis with facts.
STEP 3: Write a post with the format: thesis>support x2 >conclusion. It should look similar to my Post
STEP 4: YOU MUST Include two properly written references (APA style).

Please answer the following questions:
1. Explain the difference between stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination.13. Analyze how categorizing leads to prejudice.
2. Describe how prejudice emerges from the interaction between personality and situation.
3. Describe the dynamics between ingroups and outgroups.
4. Apply methods of prejudice reduction to realworld settings.
5. Be Honest. Do you think you have some prejudices? It’s one thing to have them and another to act on them. Where do you think your prejudices, if you have them, originated? Based on your readings, how would you propose getting rid of prejudices that you have? How does having these biases affect you? Have you ever been the target of discrimination–how easily do you think we can change people’s minds? Use research or materials from your readings to support your claims.
