Theory Case Study The course materials present a number of criminological, sociological, and developmental theories that endeavor to explain delinquent behavior among juveniles. In this assignment, you will select a real-life, notorious crime committed by a juvenile. This may be a crime perpetrated by a juvenile many years ago, or a case that is still active and in current events. You will argue for one of the particular delinquency theories as the most appropriate explanation for the perpetrator's actions. Examples could include: Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the shooters in the 1999 Columbine High School massacre Lee Boyd Malvo, the juvenile half of the infamous Washington, D.C., snipers in 2002 Erik Menendez, age 17, murderer of his parents, assisted by his adult brother, Joseph Menendez, in 1989 the juvenile perpetrators (Eric Rivera, Jr., age 17; and Timothy Brown, age 16) involved in the home invasion and murder of Washington Redskins star player Sean Taylor in 2007 other juvenile offenders well-known at either the national or local level may be used with the prior approval of the instructor The paper should include the following sections: an introduction presenting an overview of the crime, including BRIEFLY the basic facts of what happened an analysis in which you present how one particular criminological, sociological, or developmental theory best explains the perpetrator's actions, and why a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of that particular theory—how it is that the theory may fall short in explaining certain aspects of the crime. In light of this, discuss what other theory or combination of theories may better account for those particular aspects of the crime concluding thoughts summarizing your research and analysis All outside sources must adhere to APA citation format for both narrative/content citations and bibliography page. Format Requirements Paper should be a minimum of 1,250 words or about five FULL narrative pages Double space 12 pt. font 1” margins Use APA citations for all sources (outside references not required) Include APA reference page (not included in word count) .

Criminological Research Paper Offenders commit crimes for different reasons. Criminological theories attempt to explain why crimes occur. For the Final Paper, you will evaluate the theoretical study of crime and crime causation by examining the crime of an offender and applying a criminological theory discussing why the offense occurred. You must discuss both the offender and the crime in detail. Additionally, you must research the criminological theory to be used; discuss the theorist responsible for coining the theory, the year it was created, the premise of the theory, and how it is applicable. Below is a list of offenders that were reported in the media as a result of the heinous nature of their offense. Select one of the offenders, and research their crime. You may only use scholarly sources when citing in your paper. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source. First, select an offender from the list of offenders. Offenders Alex and Derek King (12 and 13 when they killed their father) Andrew Luster (Cosmetic fortune heir who was convicted of drugging, raping, and videotaping assault of young women) Bernard Madoff (perpetrated world’s largest Ponzi scheme, bilking investors of billions of dollars) Charles Cullen (Most prolific serial killer in New Jersey history, killed patients with drugs from the hospital) Cheng Chui Ping (Smuggled thousands of Chinese immigrants to the United States) Eric Rudolph (Serial bomber responsible for several anti-abortion and anti-gay bombings, killing two and injuring 111) Jesse Timmendequas (Raped and murdered a seven-year-old girl) Joel Steinberg (lawyer who beat six-year-old daughter to death) John B. Taylor (former Wendy’s manager who robbed and shot seven employees) Kathy Boudin (radical involved in robbery that led to the death of two police officers and a security guard) Ken Lay (Enron accounting fraud, wiped out employee-stockholders’ pensions) Michael Devlin (kidnapped and sexually abused two boys while living openly as their “father”) Robert Chambers (nicknamed the “Preppie Murderer,” killed 18-year-old woman in Central Park) Sante Kimes (grifter who, with son, murdered elderly socialite to get townhouse) Seung-Hui Cho (South Korean student who killed 32 people and wounded 17 others at Virginia Tech) Susan Smith (falsely claimed carjacking to cover drowning of her children) Zacarias Moussaoui (would-be 9/11 hijacker now serving life sentence in federal prison) Then, select one theory from the list.

Writing Guidelines Step 1 -- Summarizing A summary is a short paragraph telling what the main idea of a reading/lecture/video is about. These are some basic steps to follow in order to create a summary: Read the text and underline or highlight the main idea and the main details. Put the text aside and write down the main idea and details in a separate document/on a separate piece of paper. DO NOT LOOK AT THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENT ! Write your summary using your typed/handwritten notes. Check your summary and the original article to be sure you have included only the most important information and that you have not directly copied from the article. Step 2 -- Interpretation Keep in mind these guidelines for analysis of your document from the Document Interpretation Tutorial . Questions to ask of any source.. Who is the author? Who wrote or created this? Is there a single or multiple authors? An author's identity sometimes helps you answer the later questions. What type of source is this? Is it a photograph or a poem? A biography or a government document? This is a simple but crucial step because you must consider what you can expect to learn from the document. What is the message of this source? What is the author describing? What is happening in the text or image? What is the story? Who is the intended audience? Who is the author addressing? Was the source intended for private or public consumption? Identifying the audience will help you answer the next question. Why was this source created? Does the author have an agenda, a larger purpose? Is the author trying to persuade the audience? Is the document or source simply a compilation of facts, or does it include opinion, inference, or interpretation? Is this source credible and accurate? Historians must examine every source with a critical eye. What do you know about the author? Does the document make sense? Do the facts presented by the author or what you know about the time period support the thesis, statement, assertion, or story the author is conveying? Why should you trust, or distrust, this source? How is this source valuable to me? How does the source relate to other sources from the time period or along the same issue or theme? Does it support or contradict them? Does it repeat information from other sources or add new information? How relevant is the source to your topic of inquiry? Does it extensively cover your topic, or only marginally or not at all? Remember, you should explore enough sources to obtain a variety of viewpoints. Document Interpretation 4: "Hamilton and Jefferson", & The Masters Class No unread replies. 2 2 replies.

In cold Blood: Characteristics of Criminal homicides As a Function of Psychopathy. Journal of Abnormal Psychology, 111, 436-445. Brief Summary · The sample consisted of prisoners who were convicted for murder. · The researchers sought to examine if there were differences in homicide pattern (specifically, type of violence) between prisoners who were diagnosed as psychopathic and prisoners not diagnosed as psychopathic. · They focused on two types of violence: instrumental and reactive. · Instrumental violence occurs when the injury of an individual is secondary to the acquisition of some external goal (or is the goal in itself). · Reactive violence encompasses impulsive, immediate, and emotion-driven acts in response to a perceived threat, danger or insult. · Based on intake data from prison documentation, prisoners were categorized as psychopathic or non-psychopathic using the Psychopathic Checklist – Revised (Hare, 1991). · Murders were categorized as instrumental or reactive using coding criteria derived from the literature on violence. · The gender of the murder victim was also recorded. Assignment You are asked to write a report of the study based on the data you are given. Your research questions are: 1) Is there a significant relationship between psychopathy and murder type? 2) Is there a significant relationship between psychopathy and murder victim gender? You should write it as if you are on the team of researchers who ran the study. You are writing it to communicate your findings – as if you would be submitting it to a journal for publication. As such, you must format it in APA style.

Final Draft: 5-6 pages double spaced, Times New Roman 12pt font, 1-inch margins, no cover page In “Being WEIRD,” Ethan Watters looks at the work of social scientist Joseph Henrich, whose research challenged long-held beliefs that humans share inherent psychological traits. Henrich’s study of the “Ultimatum game” outside the industrial West showed that thinking and decision-making processes are heavily shaped by culture; culture shapes how people perceive the world around them, as well as their relationship to it, maybe even more than originally assumed. Heinrich's research paper, co-authored with Steven Heine and Ara Norenzayan, finds that Americans are significantly overrepresented in all kinds of scientific studies while also being the most “weird” (by which Henrich et al. mean Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic). The research by Henrich and his colleagues put culture at the front of all kinds of experimental human research: as Watters puts it, “if human cognition is shaped by cultural ideas and behavior, it can’t be studied without taking into account what those ideas and behaviors are and how they are different from place to place” (499). Watter’s “Being WEIRD” Contributes to the field of science, most specifically anthropology and psychology, in many ways. His essay could be used as a starting point for analyzing how specific aspects of American culture affect its citizens’ psyches and decisionmaking. Assignment Objectives: For this paper, you will choose ONE aspect of American culture and use Watters' "Being WEIRD," to form an argumentative analysis of how this cultural aspect affects individuals in the United States. You should include at least one reference to another text we have read as a class thus far.

400-600 words. Read 1,2,3, 5 Objective: Define and utilize concepts necessary to profile cases such as modus operandi, signature behavior, and crime scene reconstruction and offender typology. Identify the meaning and nature of various crime scene indicators including pattern analysis, evidence characteristics, primary and secondary crime scenes and offender motivation. For this assignment, you will research 1 of the suggested topics below, and post your findings on the Discussion Board. Select 1 of the topics below, and attempt to find at least 2 references that address that topic. You may post your opinions and observations, but do your best to find an authority on the subject as well. You must correctly reference your sources using APA format. Note: Do not use wikis as sources. Do school shooters have any characteristics in common with each other? Explain, and provide proof. What reasons can you uncover to explain why America seems to produce a disproportionate number of serial killers? Provide a psychological or sociological explanation. You can also argue that this not true, assuming that you can provide proof. · There have been historical examples of police and firemen who have become serial offenders—serial rapists, serial arsonists, and serial killers. Are there any characteristics that define those first responders who later became serial offenders? Explain, and provide proof. Teachers notes from powerpoint slides: Do school shooters have any characteristics in common with each other? Explain, and provide proof . A school shooter is also known as an active shooter. This is an individual actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a confined and populated area. In most cases, active shooters use firearms and there is no pattern or method to their selection of victims. These shooting are almost always planned. One thing that really stands out is that school shootings almost take place by males. There are only 2 recorded female school shootings. Isolation and/or discrimination tend to be one of the things that most of the shooters have in common. They are not anti-social but followers that are not typically accepted into the groups they would like to be a part of. There’s no demographic profile of what an active shooter looks like. They range in age from 16 to 62, with an average age of 28, and they come from all different races. Now, with the school victim body count near 200, the FBI suggests that many or most school murders “leak” threats before they kill. Many display observable pre-attack behaviors which, if recognized, can lead to the disruption of a planned attack. One student announced that “Monday will be the day of reckoning” the week before killing 3 of his peers. Another high school student’s essays were filled with scenes of carnage, and this began 4 years before he brought a hunting rifle to school and started shooting. Even Virginia Tech’s shooter leaked; so much so that he was .

Consider a space rocket travelling towards a planet at speed c/2 with respect to an observer on the surface of the planet. The planet is 5.25 × 1011 km away from the rocket. The rocket has a rest length of 175 m. A probe is fired from the rocket towards the planet at a speed of 3c/5 with respect to the rocket. All motion occurs along the same straight line and c is the speed of light. (a) How fast in m s−1 is the probe moving with respect to the observer? (b) In the observer’s frame of reference, how much time does it take for the probe to travel from the rocket to the planet? (c) The observer is holding a clock. It displays 13:00:00. How much time will pass in the rocket’s frame of reference before the observer’s clock displays 14:00:00? (d) What is the length of the rocket in the probe’s frame of reference? .

Consider a social worker who conducted a single subject design along with focus groups to evaluate the effectiveness of a spiritual-based intervention for domestic violence survivors. The numerical data from the single subject design showed that the intervention helped to improve clients’ level of self-efficacy. The focus groups explored clients’ perceptions about what specific elements of the intervention they found helpful. After the focus groups were completed, they were transcribed, and the qualitative data was analyzed using content analysis. This week, you will explore how qualitative research can be used to inform social work practice. In addition, you will have the opportunity to analyze content analysis findings of a real life focus group that was conducted. Evidence-based social work practice calls for the use of research data to guide the development of social work interventions on the micro, mezzo and/or macro-levels. Kearney (2001) described ways qualitative research findings can inform practice. Qualitative findings can help social workers understand the clients’ experiences and “what it may feel like” (Kearney, 2001). Therefore, social workers can develop clinical interventions that take into account the experiences of their clients. Qualitative findings can also help social workers monitor their clients. For example, if after reading a qualitative study on how domestic violence survivors respond to stress, they can monitor for specific stress behaviors and symptoms (Kearney, 2001). In addition, they can educate their client what stress behaviors to look for and teach them specific interventions to reduce stress (Kearney, 2001) Given the increasing diversity that characterizes the landscape in the United States, social workers need to take into account culture when formulating interventions. Social workers can utilize qualitative findings to plan interventions in a culturally meaningful manner for the client. To prepare for this Discussion, read Knight et al.’s (2014) study from this week’s required resources. Carefully review the findings, the photographs, and how the researchers wrote up the findings. Finally, review the specific macro-, meso-, and micro-oriented recommendations. Then read Marsigilia and Booth’s article about how to adapt interventions so that they are culturally relevant and sensitive to the population the intervention is designed for. Finally, review the chapter written by Lee et al. on conducting research in racial and ethnic minority communities. Kearney, M. (2001). Levels and applications of qualitative research evidence. Research in Nursing and Health, 24, 145–153. By Day 3 Post the following: Using one of the direct quotes and/or photos from Knight et al.’s study, analyze it by drawing up a tentative meaning. Discuss how this would specifically inform one intervention recommendation you would make for social work practice with the homeless. This recommendation can be on the micro, meso, .

Kagan* In early nineteenth-century America, Alexis de Tocqueville (1835) famously observed, "[Sjcarcely any political question arises...that is not resolved, sooner or later, into a judicial question." That may have been a considerable exaggeration at the time, but today, the dynamic Tocqueville highlighted marks many constitutional democracies in which independent courts are vested with powers of judicial review. In such countries, political actors, organizations, and ordinary individuals who become enmeshed in political conflicts have strong incentives to frame their desires as constitutional or statutory claims and ask courts to vindicate them. As a result, in the early twenty-first century, courts have become versatile actors in the governance of many constihitional democracies, and judges and justices play multiple roles in politics and policymaking. As many observers have noted/ politically consequential courts have emerged in new democracies from Korea to South Africa to Brazil and beyond; courts in more established democracies such as Canada and New Zealand have been given or have assumed more power to protect individual rights and invalidate government policies; and both the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) have taken on dramatic roles in European governance. However, the political power of courts has ebbed as well as flowed. In many Latin American countries, judges are not blazing the way to robust constitutional democracy in the way many hoped they might. The Hungarian Constitutional Court, once hailed as one of the most significant new constitutional courts (Zifcak 1996), had its wings clipped less than a decade after its creation (Scheppele 1999).2 * Respectively, Assistant Professor of Political Science, University of California, Irvine; Assistant Dean, Yale Law School; Professor Emeritus of Political Science and Law, University of California, Berkeley. 1 See, for example, Tate and Vallinder 1997, Stone Sweet 2000, Hirschl 2006. 2 After another brief period of judicial independence from 2002 to 20.

Connie Farris Project Performance and Quality Assurance (MPM357-1902A-02) Jason Lewis Introduction Several quality improvement process tools and techniques exist. They include Lean thinking, Value stream process mapping, Kaizen (The Japanese word for Continuous Improvement), Five Ss (separate, straighten, scrub, standardize, systematize), Kanban Primary and Task Response. In this paper, different strategies or philosophies for quality improvement in business shall be discussed. The tools and techniques that shall be compared are: Lean thinking, Kaizen and Five Ss (separate, straighten, scrub, standardize, systematize) Comparison All the techniques aim at improving quality of production processes. They involve the production units and department. All need planning and allocation of resources strategically. Contrasting Kaizen is a Japanese word for Continuous Improvement. The philosophy states that everything can be improved continuously. It involves employees in the improvement of quality processes. Workers give their feedback on the criteria and important reviewing issues in the performance of workers, supervisors and managers alike. It bases on many suggestions from employees from all ranks in the organisation. They are expected to consider and implement them with a key goal of improving managerial performance. The system encourages workers to provide suggestion, fosters employee education so that they are informed about improvement, and lastly it encourages employee efficiency (Pinto et al., 2018). Lean Thinking on the other hand is a technique of quality process improvement aims at improving productivity, quality and lead-time reduction in order to support growth and competitiveness. It involves continuous improvement of the processes and relationships of employees through proven systematic methods, which reduce waste and maximise on customer value. It follows Plan, Do, Check, and Act systematic method. The system achieves low cost productivity, reduce waste, quick response to customer needs and high-quality production (Vlachos, 2015). Moreover, the Five S's (5S) tools and techniques improves the work place, making it clean, safe, organised and uncluttered thus reducing waste and increase productivity. It builds both mental and physical quality work place (Urick et al., 2018). The best quality process improvement tool or technique for my project is the 5Ss. This is because it is systematic and aims at making working environment of high quality, improves productivity, makes wastage low, increase employee morale, reduces cost of operation and improves safety (Urick et al., 2018). Conclusion In conclusion, tools and techniques for improving quality processes are key in any project. Thought they focus on diverse issues, the 5Ss seems to cover most aspects that increases quality production processes. References Pinto, J. L. Q., Matias, J. C. O., Pimentel, C., Azevedo, S.

CONNECTIONS Core competencies: Analytic Inquiry Use of Information Resources This assignment allows you to demonstrate mastery of the course outcomes : Apply communication theories to organizational communication challenges Analyze and assess the communication dynamics of an organization to conduct a communication audit SHRM Competency: Consultation - The ability to provide guidance to organizational stakeholders. PROBLEM All organizations have communication challenges. How do you identify and address these issues as a HR professional or consultant? How can your organization overcome this challenge and improve the communication flow? In this project, you will use a diagnostic tool called a communication audit in order to assess organizational communication within an organization of your choice. STEPS Administer the communication audit survey in your organization. In order to obtain valid results, you want to survey between 15-20 people. You may print out the survey and distribute it in person for completion, or you may administer it online, for example, using Survey Monkey or Google Forms . The survey includes questions that tap into five different areas of organizational communication: (1) Receiving information from others, (2) Sending information to others, (3) Sources of information, (4) Timeliness of information, and (5) Channels of communication. Within these five areas of organizational communication, identify one major area of concern to address based on the responses from the survey. You will then analyze and synthesize the results of the data obtained from your audit effort and create your Audit Report using the format below. Based on the communication audit identify one critical communication challenge that needs to be addressed within your organization. Research the scholarly literature for recommendations about how the organization can address this issue. Participate in the discussions by reflecting on your work and sharing feedback with others in the class. Create and deliver a presentation that provides the results of your audit with suggestions for improvement based on the data obtained from the audit and the literature on organizational communication. FORMAT Audit Report: Present an introduction that describes your research methodology and provides details of the survey administration, response rate, and characteristics of the survey population. Develop a professionally-written narrative in which you describe the data using appropriate tables, charts, and graphs. Include a detailed analysis followed by a summary of your findings, using the example in the "Collecting and Analyzing Data" file below. Identify the top communication challenge from your survey, and present your recommendations to strengthen this communication challenge, based on the scholarly literature. In the appendix, present the survey questions and the responses for each question. Presentation: Your presentation should be prof.
