You will choose a topic from the Complete Marriage and Family Home Reference Guide to study more closely. In 4–6 pages, you will compare current knowledge with facts from research and then examine the chosen topic from both a psychological and a theological perspective.
1. Briefly provide your initial thoughts on the topic. This section will not require source material. The purpose is simply for you to identify what you know about this topic. You may discuss facts, a biblical perspective, the moral dilemma involved in the topic, or just your thoughts around the topic. This section must be 1 page.
2. Look at the research that has been done on the topic. This section must be well-organized with headings and subheadings and must include at least 4 empirical sources. This section must be 2–3 pages. You may consider, but are not confined to, the following prompts and questions:
· Check some of what you know against what research has to say. How could this topic affect a marriage or family?
· What are benefits and consequences of approaching this topic and working through it within the affected family unit?
3. Compare the psychological and theological perspectives of the topic. The point here is to compare what the research says about the topic to what the Bible says about the topic. Not all of the topics from "The Quick-Reference Guide to Marriage and Family Counseling" are directly mentioned in the Bible. However, you may use biblical principles and discuss similarities and discrepancies found between these 2 perspectives. This section must be 1–2 pages.
4. The conclusion of this paper must include a good summary of the information provided in the preceding 3 sections. You must also provide an idea for future study of the topic. What further information could be provided in relation to this topic? For example, what are some variables that play a part of depression in marriage? Is depression within marriage easier to work through if the depression is a result of a mood disorder or of circumstances outside of the marriage?
5. Correct current APA formatting must be implemented throughout this paper, including avoiding first person and using properly formatted citations and headings. A title page and references page must be included; however, an abstract will NOT be necessary for this assignment. Assignment instructions and the grading rubric must be carefully reviewed to ensure that all assignment criteria are met.

Final Project
The Final Project should demonstrate an understanding of the reading assignments, class discussions, your own research and the application of new knowledge. It should utilize previous skills developed in foundational health care courses and apply them within the context and viewpoint of a health care administrator and their role in managing health and human services.
For the Final Project, select one of the following topics and conduct scholarly and professional research while integrating the course’s learning outcomes to address a selected topic:
Research specific leadership and management traits and theories necessary for managing a multidisciplinary and multicultural health care organization to promote organizational effectiveness.
Present how strategic planning, performance improvement, and information systems are interrelated and fundamental to the delivery of quality health care.
Examine the financial characteristics of health care delivery along with managing costs, revenues, and human resources.
Analyze ethical and legal concepts, including specific federal regulations, required of health care organizations to ensure the delivery of high quality health care that protects patient safety.
Research Requirements
Academic research and papers must meet certain standards of quality that are recognized by the academic community. What constitutes quality academic research?
The use of primary (original), credible sources written by experts in the field of study.
Ensuring secondary sources are supported by research in primary sources.
Making sure all research is relevant and that material used is pertinent to the area of study.
In graduate work, the use of peer-reviewed journal articles (journal articles reviewed by recognized experts in the relevant field of study) is required.
Keep in mind that educational websites may be appropriate, in some cases, but should be evaluated carefully.
The Ashford University Library offers many excellent databases and other resources to assist you in conducting scholarly research.
What sources are not acceptable for academic research and referencing?
Encyclopedias
Dictionaries
Wikipedia, other wikis, or blogs
Websites and other sources that do not provide quality researched materials (e.g., they do not use credible sources to support the information in the document).
All research must reflect professional academic protocol and must be documented according to APA standards as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
Creating the Final Project
You may choose to present your research is the form of an eight- to ten-page research paper (excluding title and reference pages) or a comprehensive 10- to 15-slide PowerPoint presentation (excluding title and reference slides) with detailed speaker notes. In either case, the content of the assignment must include each of the elements listed below:

1. Briefly provide your initial thoughts on the topic. This section will not require source material. The purpose is simply for you to identify what you know about this topic. You may discuss facts, a biblical perspective, the moral dilemma involved in the topic, or just your thoughts around the topic. This section must be 1 page.
2. Look at the research that has been done on the topic. This section must be well-organized with headings and subheadings and must include at least 4 empirical sources. This section must be 2–3 pages. You may consider, but are not confined to, the following prompts and questions:
· Check some of what you know against what research has to say. How could this topic affect a marriage or family?
· What are benefits and consequences of approaching this topic and working through it within the affected family unit?
3. Compare the psychological and theological perspectives of the topic. The point here is to compare what the research says about the topic to what the Bible says about the topic. Not all of the topics from "The Quick-Reference Guide to Marriage and Family Counseling" are directly mentioned in the Bible. However, you may use biblical principles and discuss similarities and discrepancies found between these 2 perspectives. This section must be 1–2 pages.
4. The conclusion of this paper must include a good summary of the information provided in the preceding 3 sections. You must also provide an idea for future study of the topic. What further information could be provided in relation to this topic? For example, what are some variables that play a part of depression in marriage? Is depression within marriage easier to work through if the depression is a result of a mood disorder or of circumstances outside of the marriage?
5. Correct current APA formatting must be implemented throughout this paper, including avoiding first person and using properly formatted citations and headings. A title page and references page must be included; however, an abstract will NOT be necessary for this assignment. Assignment instructions and the grading rubric must be carefully reviewed to ensure that all assignment criteria are met.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts.

Week 6 - Final Assignment
WEEK 6
Integrative Literature Review
Pathbuilder is being used for this assignment. Please be certain
to complete the “Survey Acknowledgement Quiz” this week in
order to submit the Integrative Literature Review. You will not
be allowed to submit your Final Paper until you have completed
the quiz this week.
The primary goal of this literature review is to integrate
concepts from four different content domains within the larger
field of psychology. The four content domains should be chosen
from previous coursework in this program. In this paper,
students will review the findings in the individual empirical
articles, organize the research in a meaningful way, evaluate the
reliability, validity, and generalizability of the research
findings, and present an integrated synthesis of the research that
sheds new light on the topics within and across the four
domains.
The result of a successful integrative literature review may be a
significant contribution to a particular body of knowledge and,
consequently, to research and practice. Therefore, before
writing this literature review, substantive new research must be
conducted via the Internet and within the Ashford University
Library for each of the four chosen domains. A minimum of six
sources must be included for each of the four domains.
Although content from literature reviews completed in prior
courses within this program may be included, it may not
constitute the total research for the individual domains
4. addressed within this assignment. No more than four sources
from previous literature reviews completed in this program may
be utilized for this integrative review.
The headings listed below must be used within the paper to
delineate the sections of content. These sections include the
following: a clear introduction that provides a general review
and organizes the research in a meaningful way; a discussion in
which the evidence is presented through analysis, critique, and
synthesis; and a conclusion in which the discussion is drawn
together in a meaningful way, the claims of the introduction are
brought to a logical closure, and new research is proposed.
Introduction
Provide a conceptual framework for the review.
Describe how the review will be organized. The questions below
may be used to guide this section.
What are the guiding theories within the domains?
How are the domains connected?
Are there competing points of view across the domains?
Why is the integration of these domains important?
What is the history of these domains?
What are the related theories or findings?
5. Describe how the literature was identified, analyzed, and
synthesized.
How and why was the literature chosen?
What is your claim or thesis statement?
Discussion
Provide the analysis, critique, and synthesis for the review.
Analysis
Examine the main ideas and relationships presented in the
literature across the four domains.
Integrate concepts from the four different content domains
within the larger field of psychology.
What claim(s) can be made in the introduction?
What evidence supports the claim(s) made in the introduction?
Critique
Evaluate the reliability, validity, and generalizability of the
chosen research findings.
How well does the literature represent the issues across the four
domains?
6. Identify the strengths and the key contributions of the literature.
What, if any, deficiencies exist within the literature?
Have the authors omitted any key points and/or arguments?
What, if any, inaccuracies have been identified in the literature?
What evidence runs contrary to the claims proposed in the
introduction, and how might these be reconciled with the claims
presented?
Explain how the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and
Code of Conduct might influence the reliability and/or
generalizability of the chosen findings.
Did the ethical issues influence the outcomes of the research?
Were ethical considerations different across the domains?
Synthesis
Integrate existing ideas with new ideas to create new knowledge
and new perspectives.
Describe the research that has previously been done across these
domains, as well as any controversies or alternate opinions that
currently exist.
Relate the evidence presented to the major conclusions being
made.
Construct clear and concise arguments using evidence-based
7. psychological concepts and theories to posit new relationships
and perspectives on the topics within the domains.
Conclusion
Provide a conclusion and present potential future
considerations.
State your final conclusion(s).
Synthesize the findings described in the discussion into a
succinct summary.
What questions remain?
What are the possible implications of your argument for
existing theories and for everyday life?
Are there novel theories and/or testable hypothesizes for future
research?
What do the overarching implications of the studies show?
Where should the research go from this point to further the
understanding of these domains and the greater study of
psychology?
