Read the paper “Isn’t everyone like me?”: On the presence of self-similarity in strategic interactions
Read the paper “Isn’t everyone like me?”: On the presence of self-similarity in strategic interactions by Rubinstein & Salant (link posted on D2L). Provide a summary and a critique of the paper. In your summary, you should describe the following in your own words:
The goal/motivation for the paper
The experimental design (who were the participants? What were they asked to do?
etc)
The main results
Any remaining open questions (either because the experiment did not address them, or because the results suggest certain new questions worth investigating)
The critique portion of this question is fairly open-ended. Essentially, you should say what you liked and disliked about the experimental design (was the set of controls appropriate? Was something important left out? etc); whether you find the results convincing or not (and why); and what, if anything, you might have done differently if you were designing and conducting the experiment. Please limit your response to at most two pages.
FISA court surveillance
Write a Point Paper.(point paper is explained in professional writing attatchment. please follow example) You are a civilian working in a DoD Public Affairs Office in a large Legal Services Command. Your department head has asked you to respond to a query from a U.S. Senator concerning the use of the FISA court in an American being tried for terrorism. Specifically, the Senator wants to know what legal basis did the FISA Court have in surveilling the American suspect. After conducting research, you must write a point paper that follows the following criteria:
1. Create a professional document in accordance with instructions in the Professional Writing Guide.
2. The length must be between 300 and 450 words. You will be penalized for shorter or longer memos.
3. Word length applies to the body of the text only.
4. Cite sources using footnote citations only.
5. Text is single-spaced.
6. Use proper grammar and punctuation.
7. List word length at the end of your document.
Example of point paper attached in attachments
FISA reading attached
Use the reading attached to understand how the FISA Courts operate. Consider the pros and cons of surveillance under the FISA Court.
Congressional inquiries are letters that request information from a government office on behalf of the representative’s constituent. In this scenario, a constituent made a complaint to the Senator. The Senator, in return mails the DoD Public Affairs Office wanting to know what legal basis did the FISA Court have in surveilling the American suspect.
Most Congressional Inquiries must be responded to within thirty days. The DoD PAO is aware of this timeline.
The Senator, like most elected officials, is not looking to place the blame on an organization with an inquiry, or is it taking sides. Instead, elected officials are looking for facts related to the questions in the inquiry.
Elected officials are aware that they only have half the story. They want to hear from the other side of the argument. Your response, as a legal office, would be an opinion on actions taken related to the complaint. You do not want to be defensive or accusatory in your response.
The response should list the legal facts of the case and nothing more. Saying too much could open other doors you do not want to address. Be disciplined in your response. Answer only the question(s) you were asked.
Once you respond to an elected official, the elected official will send the constituent a response saying they investigated the issue and relate the facts as you stated. Their purpose is to show they supported their constituency by sending the inquiry. They normally do not take sides in constituent complaints. If, however, your response causes concern or raises any alarms, this would be the end of the Congressional Inquiry.
You do not need to concern yourself with the actual terrorist acts, unless you want to include that in your problem space. Remember, a FISA Court usually makes decisions based on classified information that is not shared with the general public. In this case, it is unlikely that the PAO knows of the classified information in the case. The PAO would consult with the attorneys in the case and only ask for enough information to respond to the question(s) in the inquiry. Concentrate your response on the legality of the actions being questioned.

The
following is some information to help you interpret your research articles:
Heading:
This consists of the title, name of the author(s) and their
institutional affiliations. The title
provides a brief description of the primary independent and dependent variable
that have been investigated in the study.
Abstract:
This section consists of a short preview of the contents of the
article. It should convey a statement of
the problem explored, the methods used, the major results of the study, and the
conclusions reached. The abstract helps
pinpoint the exact questions addressed in the study.
Introduction:
This section provides the foundation for the study, itself. It serves to provide a context for the study
by discussing the past literature that is relevant to and has implications for
the present research. It permits a
thorough discussion of the rationale for the research that was conducted and a
full description of the independent and dependent variables that were employed. It also allows for the hypotheses that were tested
to be stated explicitly and the arguments on which these predictions were based
to be discussed.
Method:
This section describes the procedures that were employed in the
investigation. The Method section
typically comprises two or more subsections, each of which has a specific
function to fulfill. The Method section
usually begins with a subject subsection, consisting of a complete description
of the subjects who participated in the study.
A procedures subsection is also usually included in the method section.
This subsection presents a detailed account of the subjects’ experiences in the
experiment and, a thorough description of all questionnaires administered or
tasks completed, as well as any other features that might be reasonably
expected to affect the behavior of the subjects in the study.
Results:
This section reports the results of the statistical analyses that were
conducted on the data in a clear and concise way. The author is obligated to present all the
significant results obtained in the statistical analysis, not just the results
that support the hypotheses being tested.
Discussion:
This section evaluates and interprets the findings of the study,
particularly as they relate to the hypotheses that were proposed in the Introduction. There is also an attempt to integrate the new
findings into the body of research that provided the background for the
study. It provides the context within
which the data can be understood and interpreted. The author may finish the article with a
brief section about the possible applications of the present work, implications
for future work in the area, and speculations about what lies ahead for the
line of research in the field of psychology.
The article may end with a short conclusion which restates the major
arguments that have been made throughout the article reminding the reader of
the value of the work.
