PSY 302 Week 1 Exercise Ethics In Writing
(Plagiarism) (2 Papers)
This Tutorial contains 2 Papers
PSY 302 Week 1 Exercise Writing Ethics
Ethics in Writing: The Woes of Social Media Influences. [CLO: 3]. Due
by Day 7. To prepare for this exercise, please read Ethical Principles of
Psychologists and Code of Conduct (2010) and Mouse Click Plagiarism:
The Role of Technology in Plagiarism and the Librarian’s Role in
Combating It.
Finding one’s academic voice is an important part of development when
dedicating one’s self to earning a degree. However, it is not always
easy. Sometimes we lack the confidence (self-efficacy) and think our
words are not good enough. Other times, managing our time becomes
difficult and taking short cuts seems like our only way out. Once this
habit begins, especially if it is not caught, can have devastating results
later down the road, but often our emotions allow us to rationalize the
practice of taking this easy option.
There are also many temptations with the World Wide Web, including
websites touting that you can buy information that cannot be traced. Be

cautious. Technological advancement is making this quite the inaccurate
marketing tool. In addition, students who do use tools such as Turn It In
can be deceived by what they do not know. For example, often, academic
institutions have access to outside student work when running these
reports.
Students on the other hand do not, and thus, copies of other student
papers or even sections or portions may not be identified to the student
but will be to the instructor. “Not fair,” one might say. If one is using
another’s work, they know it, and thus it can still be deemed unethical,
whether they themselves saw it in a plagiarism report or not.
So, what can you do? Take the high road and develop your confidence
by developing your academic voice. One of the most important aspects
to this is simply giving credit to where the information was learned.
Doing this correctly is also important, but giving this credit is a good
place to start.
Your assignment this week involves exploring this area of ethics and will
include three parts:
· Part One: Discuss why you think plagiarism is so problematic in
higher education today. Have you seen examples of it? What do you
think you can personally do to help develop your own academic voice?
Does it stir up any emotions when you think others are “getting away
with it”?
· Part Two: Write a one- to two-paragraph summary about what
you have learned this week. Within this writing exercise, demonstrate
three levels of preventing plagiarism within your own writing, and
highlighteach example in a differing colored font as noted below:
o (red font) Paraphrased information using a citation. (Author, Year)
o (green font) One sentence quote from the text that helps support your
summary. Be sure to

include the exact page the quote is found in your citations. (Author,
Year, p. X)
o (blue font) Free-write. Write something entirely based on what you
remember from your reading. o This should still be cited, but is all in
your own words. (Author, Year).
o Needassistancewithparaphrasing?Examplesonhowtoparaphrase.
o Notquiteclearwhatyoudohere?Viewthisworkedexampleforassistance.
• Part Three: Reflect on how difficult you think Part Two was. Do you
have any bad habits you need to break? How much more difficult would
it be to avoid this situation when using websites to assist you in
research? What strategies could you use here to help you have more
success and prevent accidental mistakes?
This exercise should be a minimum of three to four pages and should
adequately discuss all questions posed, demonstrate maturating self-
awareness.

PSY 302 Week 4 Decision Making (2 Papers)
PSY 302 PSY302 Week 4 Assignment Decision-Making
Decision-Making. [CLO: 2]. Due by Day 7. Our text suggests that
objective reality is often significantly different from perceived reality
and is an important variable to consider when making decisions within
an organization.In addition,attribution theory describes how people
create the explanations for their own and others’ actions, as well as the
outcomes of the applied behaviors. Based on these two premises,
analyze and discuss the following questions:
· Consider your own experiences with others. Have your actions
ever been judged inaccurately by a person such as a boss, a peer, or a

family member? Does attribution theory offer us any explanations for
what happened in the experience?
· Every day we all make choices and decisions to act on something
or behave in a specific way. Consider a time where you behaved in a
way that was misinterpreted by someone. Why do you think it was
misinterpreted?
· Further analyze your behaviors during the event. How do you
believe that your actions were inaccurately interpreted or do you think
you may have not fully considered why you made this decision at that
time?
· Consider the following as you make your decision:
o Consistency. Do you tend to react/behave this way often?
o Consensus. Would other people act similarly in the same situation?
o Distinctiveness.Doothersituationsandstimulielicitthesamebehavior?

PSY 302 Week 5 Discussion Generational Work
Expectations
PSY302 Week 5 Discussion Generational Work Expectations
Generational Work Expectations. [CLOs: 2, 4, 5]. 1st Post Due by Day
3. Chapter 10, as well as your required resources, address employee
attitudes and suggest that an increase in job performance is reliant on
job satisfaction. The authors of our text suggest that highly satisfying
jobs are more complex, requiring the worker to utilize a variety of skills
and to deal with unpredictable situations (i.e. teaching, managing,
engineering, etc.), unlike jobs where the work is repetitive and less
thought-provoking (general laborers, factory workers, and the like). In
addition, the work expectations are suggested to differ based on
generations, which may likely also affect job satisfaction.
• Consider the generation you fall into, based on the text: o The
Traditionalists or Matures
o The Baby Boomers
o Generation X
o Generation Y or the Millennials
o Generation Z

· Consider your own expectations. Do they align with what the
content and outside sources suggest about the characteristics of these
generational groups?
· Applying this component (work expectations), consider you own
goals for going back to school. Do your goals align with these
expectations?
· Do you think your educational/career goals align with the
suggestions about job satisfaction? Do you desire to obtain a higher-
level thinking career? If so, why? If not, why not?
· After analyzing all of the factors, what do you think the
implications might be on an organization’s productivity with the
evolving employee expectations, need for work-life balance, and job
satisfaction? Do you think we will see changes in the future of how
organizations achieve these goals? How?
· Consider a goal you might assign to a group at your work, the
organization where you volunteer, or other potential organization.
(Examples: (a) to decrease the errors in timecard submissions, or (b)
to successfully submit a group project to the instructor.) Applying
Chapter 9, what potential strategies would be important to consider to
assist a diverse multi-generational team in deciding on possible
strategies and successfully meeting the goal?

Papers)
PSY 302 Week 5 Journal Life Applications
Life Applications. [CLOs: 2, 4, 5]. Due by Day 7.
Workplace stress can have long-term effects. Our text identifies the
following four areas which can increase this type of stress:
· Role conflict: two or more incompatible demands at work or
across work and non-work roles
· Role ambiguity: vagueness or unclearness in role responsibilities
and functions
· Workload incompatibility: occurs when the amount of work to be
accomplished exceeds the employee’s
capabilities
· Job insecurity: the feeling that the security of one’s job is unstable

In addition, happiness and positivity can lead to personal success and
further indicates the following ideas to increase one’s happiness:
o Setting challenging and meaningful goals
o Disputing negative thinking and deliberately practicing positive self-
talk
o Choosing to forgive others and let go of grudges and hard feelings
o Counting one’s blessings and intentionally expressing gratitude for
them
o Visualizing future success
o Practicing healthy habits such as a balanced diet, adequate sleep,
and regular exercise
Thus, hypothetically these suggestions and ideas can be applied to each
of our lives. Whether you are working and going to school, or just going
to school, they are applicable since school, too, is an organization.
After reading and viewing all of the required resources this week,
consider all of the factors related to a person’s health and the
workplace, how can you apply the concepts to your own life right now?
§ Identify at least three strategies that you can implement today to
increase your level of success in the situation you most identify with.
§ Why do you think these strategies can work for you?
§ What strategies could you utilize to increase someone else’s
happiness level and assist them in increased
success based on our content?
§ Overall, consider the past five weeks of content. What do you think
are two of the most important factors

that will be applicable to you and your current goals? What aboutto
your future goals? Why or How?
Your journal should be a minimum of four to five double-spaced pages,
adequately discuss all questions posed, and demonstrate maturating
self-awareness.
