Formulated the hypothesis, but you will not be penalized if in our judgment it is not correct.
Examples:
• Older individuals suffering from mild cognitive impairment will take longer to learn job-related technologies than those individuals that are cognitively healthy.

• Older individuals suffering from mild cognitive impairment will be slower to learn job-related tasks that require multitasking than those that are cognitively healthy individuals.
Again, I could only make these predictions if I am familiar with the body of the literature, and I should have operationalized in my literature review my main concepts.

For example, What does cognitively impaired mean? How will I see it measured in the study? How has it been defined in the literature reviewed thus far?

Psychology Essay

Identify a quote or song lyric that is interesting or meaningful to you, and use it as a theme that helps you discuss three distinct topics from the class, as they relate to your own experiences. These course topics can be your choice of any theories, studies, key terms, etc. in PSYCH 001. Write about what interests you!

Your objective is to demonstrate an understanding of any three topics of your choice from the class, yet tied together with the quote. In describing your three chosen topics, you should provide enough detail so that someone unfamiliar with psychology would have a basic comprehension of each after reading your essay. Aside from providing your chosen quote somewhere in your essay, do not use any other direct quotes in your paper – you should paraphrase everything into your own words, given the relatively short length of this essay. Moreover, please indicate where each of the three topics is originally discussed (e.g., provide the chapter or page number).

Your grade will be based on demonstrating an understanding of three separate course topics (50 points). Again, this is open–ended and you may choose to write about anything you like. Another, smaller aspect of this (15 points) is being creative and tying all three topics together with your chosen quote and applying to your own experiences. 10 points will also be dedicated to grammar, spelling, and clarity of content. Your paper should be organized (i.e., include introduction and conclusion paragraphs) and proof–read.
Essays should be 1.5 pages double–spaced, minimum, but less attention will be given to length compared to content. There are no specific format requirements (e.g., MLA, APA, etc.), but organization is important.
Essays will be automatically checked for plagiarism on Canvas. Academic dishonesty will result in a 0 on this assignment, possibly the class as well, and further action potentially taken with the Office of Academic Affairs

Agenda-Setting Theory

Many people get all or most of their news from social media. For this project, we are going to be analyzing the content of several social media sites from major news sources, paying particular attention to social media standards, practices, and regulation.

Where do you get your news? Start by going to one major news site’s FACEBOOK page (CNN, MSNBC, FOX, etc.) Try another different news site’s TWITTER feed, and third choose another social media site such as Reddit, Pinterest, or another (preferably one you use, if there is one).

Analyze the sites in a 3-5 page total paper. In your analysis, be sure to include the following:
General introduction to your thoughts on the social media you studied.
Several social media practices you observed. (e.g., what gets the most interaction?)
Examples of regulation of social media and discussion of such regulation. (Is it good, bad, or indifferent? How could circumstances change the situation?)
Analysis of ethical concerns .(e.g., can you see examples of bias?)
What is the culture of each site – how do users seem to respond to questionable items? (Is racism or open mocking ignored or pursued?)
Conclusion of your findings
