Watch the short video about the invisible gorilla. The researchers found it very interesting that a large number of people fail to see the gorilla. They believe that this is due to selective attention. After watching the video, answer how close you were to the number of passes the white shirt team actually made. Can you even guess how many the black shirt made? Now put this into real life. Write a 500 page paper over selective attention by first defining it according to the literature and then continue with your thoughts on the video you reviewed and finally discuss a time in your own life when you “missed” something that was right in front of you. Describe how the concept of selective attention may have been the reason for this. Conclude with how we can be more attentive and not miss quite so much.

Annotated bibliographies are summaries of relevant research to your topic. They are a useful way to understand the topic, keep track of the relevant research, and help organize your paper. For this assignment you need to find four relevant articles and summarize them. These articles should not be more than 10 years old. The articles should help justify our hypotheses.

Your annotated bibliographies should cover the topics listed below. Try to spend about 5-7 sentences on summarizing the article (items 1-6) and 1 to 2 sentences on why it is important for your study (item 7). Entries in an annotated bibliography should begin with an APA formatted reference list entry for the article you are summarizing.

1) Briefly describe the purpose of the study (What is the question or issue being investigated?)

2) Briefly describe the key theories/terms from the literature review.

3) Describe the paper’s key hypothesis.

4) Describe the sample used in the study (where they came from/ a basic demographic if it’s important)

5) Summarize the method used (type of design, what are the key independent variables that the authors manipulated, what are the key dependent variables that they measured?)

6) Describe the most important results (what was the relationship between the key variables?)

7) What are the implications for your research question? What points of your argument can this support?

Craft a topic that is narrow enough to support a strong argument. Engage with multiple viewpoints about your topic. Improve your general research and writing skills. Practice crafting the thesis statement. Write an extended argument with supporting evidence that is persuasive and compelling.

How: Upload to BB in PDF file

  • You are required to submit an outline of the introduction of your paper. Do not include any other sections.
  • An outline provides you with a general structure for how you will write your paper.
  • Your outline should clearly show the order in which you will present your introduction, and what you will present in each section/paragraph of the introduction.
  • The outline should present a clear and logical argument, or series of arguments, for your hypotheses.

 

Below is an example of how you might structure your outline. This is very general—your outline will be specific to your articles. Here are some pointers:

  • Each paragraph must have a purpose.
  • Each paragraph should have its own “level”, for instance in the example below, each paragraph is marked with a Roman Numeral.
  • Body paragraphs (not the first or last paragraph) should have “main points” which are supported by one or two of your studies.
  • Keep in mind that the order of the paragraphs and studies you are citing is logical and leads the reader to our hypotheses.
  • Each point (a., b., c., etc.) should have a sentence that explains what will go in that part of the paragraph.

 

  1. Introduce the topic and describe its importance
  2. Preview argument: main points to be talked about below
  3. End with thesis: Your general prediction or topic

 

  1. Main point of this paragraph (a necessary claim to support your thesis)
  2. Study supporting main point of this paragraph
    1. In one complete or incomplete sentence, describe the KEY variables looked at.
    2. Summarize KEY findings in one or two complete or incomplete sentences.

  1. What are the principles, tenants, and assumptions of this therapy?
  2. How does the technique work exactly? What methods are involved?
  3. What client/patient population is this approach designed for? What type of clinical presenting problem or mental health disorder is this approach designed for?
  4. What type of studies/research has been done on this approach? What has been found about the validity/efficacy of the approach?
  5. What diverse client populations, if any, have been left out of the research on this approach?
  6. If you were a practicing therapist, would you use this approach with your clients/patients? Why or why not?
  7. What questions remain for you about this approach?
  8. What research is still needed to better understand the efficacy of the approach?

Autobiography part four

Essentially, you are going to focus on the main roles of adulthood and how you are preparing for them. The main roles of adulthood include career, long-term relationships (romantic and friendships), and parenthood. This is also a place for you to state some of your goals- past goals if you have lived through the stage, current goals, and future goals. The discussion of your future can go past emerging adulthood and draw from early and middle adulthood as well.

Be creative in answering the following:• Career- preparation, required education, first job vs. current job, important characteristics of your career, explanation as to how you plan to get there/how you came to your career decision
• Identity Statuses for different components of your life.
• Social clock issues- how do your experiences, feelings, goals align with those of your peers and how does the timing aspect affect you?
• Relationships with parents, friends, romantic partners
• Thoughts on marriage, cohabitation, as they apply to your current or future situation.
• Thoughts on parenthood
• Other life goals

This is an integrative paper. Information should be presented in an essay format with an introduction and conclusion and several detailed paragraphs describing the bulleted subjects above. Do not simply answer the questions in order. Instead tell your own story while weaving in important information.
