Creativity Through Applying Ideas From Fields Other
Than One’s Own: Transferring Knowledge From Social
Psychology to Industrial/Organizational Psychology *
Abstract
Subfields of psychology can be arguably characterized as
islands of unconnected knowledge. The underlying theme
of this paper is that these subfields have much to gain by
looking at and studying each other’s respective literature.
This paper explains how the field of industrial/organiza-
tional (I/O) psychology has benefited from theory and
research in social psychology, and suggests ways it can ben-
efit even more so. Specifically, moral development, the
group-serving bias, as well as inducing feelings of hypocrisy
so as to foster subsequent behaviour change are discussed.
Their potential for leading to further insight into existing
problems, refining existing theories, and for raising new
questions in I/O psychology is described.
Psychology is a behavioural science whose literature
has grown rapidly. However, psychology has often
failed to transfer knowledge across its subfields.
Scientists and practitioners within the subfields fre-
quently appear ignorant of ways they can benefit from
cross-subfield research. These subfields, whether bio-
logical, clinical, educational, social, or industrial, con-
tain interdependent ideas that should be shared in
order to advance psychology for all.
Since the authors are researchers of organizational
behaviour, this paper provides insights as to how trans-
ferring knowledge from social psychology has already
enriched the science and practice of I/O psychology.
In addition, new ideas as to how I/O psychology can
benefit from social psychology are explored.
Benefits of Reading Literature Other than One’s Own
The benefits of researching literature other than one’s
own are at least four-fold. First, sharing concepts
among psychology’s subfields allows researchers to
extend their work to other areas (i.e., generalization).
Second, it enables them to theorize and contextualize
their research so as to connect their findings within
larger conversations. Research designs often yield rela-
tively sterile pieces of data that contribute little to
knowledge and understanding when they are confined
to narrow disciplines, or kept within the borders of a
specific field (e.g., Locker, 1994; Sternberg &
Grigorenko, 2001). Third, it helps researchers to be
constructively critical of both the fields from which
they draw information and of that in which they work.
It can lead to proposals for using alternative method-
ologies in a particular program of research. Fourth, it
enables researchers to raise questions not previously
considered. Sharing knowledge across subfields may
even lead researchers who investigate the same phe-
nomenon, but who are in different areas of psycholo-
gy, and hence have different perspectives and instru-
ments, to interact with one another in ways that facili-
tate both knowledge creation and knowledge applica-
tion.

In this article, the author addresses some challenges to information
searches and information evaluation which were brought by the
Internet. Large segments of audience are exaggerating their
awareness and do not realize that their online behavior is driven
more by emotions than by critical assessment of primary sources.
The result is growing popularity of conspiracy theories,
pseudoscience, propaganda, and alternative medicine. These are
all examples of biased reasoning. Due to scientists, scholars,
teachers, and journalists, this trend can be considered as a potential
threat to public health and democracy. Publics incapable of
informed choices can be manipulated to sup.

Self Esteem: Methods
The methodical approach that is applied in understanding self-esteem is empirical research. Many controversial debates have been done to understand the concept and truth about self-esteem. Many people just get around the fact that self-esteem can influence the ability of the children to study and succeed in education (Franck, 2007). Other people just claim with the new hypothesis that has been drawn from the research conclusions of the studies that have been done so far about self-esteem (Govier, 2013). Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: This is an interesting start though the sentence doesn’t actually say much. Still, it works. Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: Okay. This additional material helps create a stronger introduction.
However, in getting the results of self-esteem, research can be done by both qualitative and quantitative methods (Govier, 2013). These methods of research can be applied in trying to understand self-esteem where the experiments that ask the respondents how favorably they can regard themselves. Questionnaires are used to collect data in this case that have questions that ask the respondents to agree or not agree with statements such as “I feel I can make it in life.” Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: Yes, but . . . what are these different approaches about? Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: You offer a couple of examples but don’t pair wither experiments or questionnaires with either approach.
The statements are directed to the fact that self-esteem is based on what the subjects says about themselves and it worthwhile to note that self-report measures are rather problematic(Franck, 2007). Sometimes they can tell us about someone’s wishes but not their real status. However, since the other methods that have been suggested to understand self-esteem are yet to be empirically validated, the only addition method is an analysis of other research that has been done by other researchers. There is experimental research that has been done so far on the impact and the working of self-esteem and variables that influence this change can provide very interesting resources. The resources that will be required will be a list of questionnaires, respondents and around a period of one month to gather data that has been collected through research (Franck, 2007). Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: say Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: What would be the value of analyzing all the research if none of it has been empirically validated? Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: additional Comment by Gregory G. Bolich: I don’t quite follow you. I don’t know what hypothesis is being tested or what design you propose to use. Much better clarification is needed.

Ch .19 The Neurobiological Bases of Empathic Concern for Others
There has been a remarkable increase in theory and research on the neurobiological foundations
of empathy, sympathy, compassion, prosocial behavior, and altruism in recent years.
In this chapter, we examine how empathic concern for others is connected to genetic,
neurophysiological, hormonal, and autonomic physiological functioning. Neurobiological
researchers take various positions on the extent to which empathy and related constructs
are reflective of morality, precursors to morality, or fundamental building blocks of morality.
Our position conforms to the latter view: Empathy is a primary motivational force
for caring behaviors toward others in need (de Waal, 2008). As a basic, essential element ...
Google scholarAdvantages of using Google scholar for research·.docxwhittemorelucilla
Google scholar
Advantages of using Google scholar for research
· It gives an option of seeing an article related to one another which is not available in the online library. This makes search easier and simpler, you can easily get an article that interest you search your research topic
· Google scholar gives an easier option of citing the work and at the same time give a link of the articles and books held in ECU libraries
· It is easier to use
· It is free so u can access it anytime anywhere so long as you have internet connection
Disadvantages of using Google scholar for a research topic
· Google Scholar's scope is far reaching yet not exhaustive. It can be an exploration source, yet ought not to be the main source you utilize.
· Google Scholar does not give the criteria to what makes its outcomes "insightful". Results are frequently fluctuating in quality and it is up to the scientist to figure out which of the outcomes are appropriate for their motivations.
· Google Scholar does not enable clients to restrict results to either peer inspected or full content materials or by teaching.
· Google Scholar does not give notice of when its materials are refreshed.
· Google Scholar's reference tracker can be hard to utilize and mistaken.
WHERE TO START CHP. 2
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
· Discuss how a hypothesis differs from a prediction.
· Describe the different sources of ideas for research, including common sense, observation, theories, past research, and practical problems.
· Identify the two functions of a theory.
· Summarize the fundamentals of conducting library research in psychology, including the use of PsycINFO.
· Summarize the information included in the abstract, introduction, method, results, and discussion sections of research articles.
Page 21THE MOTIVATION TO CONDUCT SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH DERIVES FROM A NATURAL CURIOSITY ABOUT THE WORLD. Most people have their first experience with research when their curiosity leads them to ask, “I wonder what would happen if …” or “I wonder why …,” followed by an attempt to answer the question. What are the sources of inspiration for such questions? How do you find out about other people's ideas and past research? In this chapter, we will explore some sources of scientific ideas. We will also consider the nature of research reports published in professional journals.
RESEARCH QUESTIONS, HYPOTHESES, AND PREDICTIONS
The result of curiosity is a question. Researchers use research questions to identify and describe the broad topic that they are investigating, and then conduct research in order to answer their research questions. A good research question identifies the topic of inquiry specifically enough so that hypotheses and predictions can be made. A hypothesis is also a question; it makes a statement about something that may be true. Hypotheses are more specific versions of research questions; they are directly testable whereas a research question may not be. Thus, a hypothesis is a tentative idea ...

Say Hello to Research!
Walk down the hall in any building on your campus where social and
behavioral science professors have their offices in such departments as
psychology, education, nursing, sociology, and human development. Do you
see any bearded, disheveled, white-coated men wearing rumpled pants and
smoking pipes, hunched over their computers and mumbling to themselves?
How about disheveled, white-coated women wearing rumpled skirts, smoking

Researchers hard at work? No. Stereotypes of what scientists look like
and do? Yes. What you are more likely to see in the halls of your classroom
building or in your adviser’s office are men and women of all ages who are
hard at work. They are committed to finding the answer to just another piece
of the great puzzle that helps us understand human behavior a little better
than the previous generation of scientists.
Like everyone else, these people go to work in the morning, but unlike
many others, these researchers have a passion for understanding what they
study and for coming as close as possible to finding the “truth.” Although these
truths can be elusive and sometimes even unobtainable, researchers work
toward discovering them for the satisfaction of answering important questions
and then using this new information to help others. Early intervention
programs, treatments of psychopathology, new curricula, conflict resolution
techniques, effective drug treatment programs, and even changes in policy and
law have resulted from evidence collected by researchers. Although not always
perfect, each little bit of evidence gained from a new study or a new idea for a
study contributes to a vast legacy of knowledge for the next generation of
researchers such as yourself.
You may already know and appreciate something about the world of
research. The purpose of this book is to provide you with the tools you need to
do even more, such as
• develop an understanding of the research process.
• prepare yourself to conduct research of your own.
• learn how to judge the quality of research.
• learn how to read, search through, and summarize other research.
• learn the value of research activities conducted online.
• reveal the mysteries of basic statistics and show you how easily they can
be used.
• measure the behaviors, traits, or attributes that interest you.
• collect the type of data that relate to your area of interest.
• use a leading statistical package (SPSS) to analyze data.
• design research studies that answer the question that you want answered.
• write the type of research proposal (and a research report) that puts you in control—

The Action Research Dissertation: A Guide for Students and Faculty text

Action Research Traditions and Knowledge Interests
As we discussed in Chapter 1, action research is a cover term for several approaches that have emerged from different traditions. Everyone who uses action research for a dissertation should be steeped in the particular tradition they are working out of and its attendant methodological, epistemological, and political dilemmas (e.g., participatory action research [PAR], teacher research, community-based participatory research, etc.). We do not pretend to provide this level of grounding in this chapter, but we do try to provide some sense of how these traditions relate to each other and where students and faculty can go for more extensive accounts. There are several historical overviews of action research, but most are told from a particular intellectual and social tradition, such as the overviews provided by Anderson et al. (2007, practitioner research); Argyris, Putnam, and Smith (1985, action science); Bullough and Pinnegar (2001, self-study); Chambers (1997, participatory rural appraisal); Cochran-Smith and Lytle (1993, teacher research); Fals Borda (2001, participatory action research); Greenwood and Levin (2006, action research); and Maguire (1987b, feminist participatory action research). In this section, we will try to be as inclusive as possible so that students consulting this book for guidance on their dissertations can find their particular tradition of action research represented. There is also a need for a participatory dialogue among these traditions, which academic departmentalization has tended to balkanize into self-contained scholarly communities and bibliographies.
Historians are in the business of creating—not discovering or interpreting—historical meaning. In this chapter, we have done our best to get our “facts” straight, but the meaning one makes of them will depend on who is telling the story. To our knowledge, no attempt at a comprehensive history of action research exists, and our intent is not to provide one here. While the previous chapter attempted to offer some common elements of action research, there may be as much variation across action research traditions as there is between action research and some mainstream approaches to research. Some action research is group oriented and some is individual oriented; some is done by those within the setting and some is done by change agents from outside the organization in collaboration with insiders; and some is highly participatory and some is much less so. Similarly, some see the goal of action research as improving practice or developing individuals, whereas others see its goal as transforming practice, participants, organizations, or, in some cases, even society. Debates rage within action research around these issues.
To the extent possible, our goal in this book is to present all of these perspectives in an evenhanded way. ...

Note: Because of formatting issues, you may find it easier to place your handout at the very end; that’s okay.
If you work your handout with Microsoft Publisher and have difficulty inserting the handout in your WORD file, you can save each page of the handout as a JPEG and drag those files in your work.
That said, there are many ways/programs to design a flyer. It is your responsibility to find out (Google, YouTube, etc…) how to insert the handout in your work. I would suggest that you don’t wait at the last minute; I expect 1 WORD file only.

Biological Roots of Moral
Development Assignment
OVERVIEW
You will summarize the assigned readings and devise a lesson plan in the context of higher
education. Teaching skills are essential in academia. Reading for comprehension is one thing,
and reading for the purpose of teaching is another. You will be given opportunities to read for the
purpose of teaching in the context of higher education while thinking about and devising plans
for how to deliver of the content of the readings.
INSTRUCTIONS
Details:
Read
Chapter 19-22
1. While completing the assigned readings for the Module: Week, think about which topic
to cover in your lecture for college students. State your topic and come up 3-4 objectives.
The first heading in the paper should be “Topic and Objectives.” When listing objectives,
start with “After this lecture, students will be able to…”
2. The second heading should be “Summary of the Lecture Content.” Citing the assigned
readings (with pages as necessary), summarize the content to be delivered in class. Your
summary should be at least 2 pages, double-spaced. Do not go over 3 pages. The goal is
not to discuss all of the details to be discussed in class but to summarize the lecture
content noting the most important concepts in a coherent manner (showing their
connections to the overall topic and objectives).
3. Provide a 2-page, double-spaced, lesson plan for an hour-long lecture on the chosen
topic. You can be creative here, but provide an outline of the lecture followed by concrete
in-class activity/discussion ideas.
Further instructions:
1. This assignment is for your future teaching opportunities, so think concretely about your
teaching context as a doctoral-level instructor and make it as useful for you as possible.
2. Use current APA format with appropriate citations and headings as well as a reference
page, but do not include the title and abstract.
Please see the Summary and Lesson Plan page under the Summary and Lesson Plan

Ch .19 The Neurobiological Bases of Empathic Concern for Others
There has been a remarkable increase in theory and research on the neurobiological foundations
of empathy, sympathy, compassion, prosocial behavior, and altruism in recent years.
In this chapter, we examine how empathic concern for others is connected to genetic,
neurophysiological, hormonal, and autonomic physiological functioning. Neurobiological
researchers take various positions on the extent to which empathy and related constructs
are reflective of morality, precursors to morality, or fundamental building blocks of morality.
Our position conforms to the latter view: Empathy is a primary motivational force
for caring behaviors toward others in need (de Waal, 2008). As a basic, essential element ...
Google scholarAdvantages of using Google scholar for research·.docxwhittemorelucilla
Google scholar
Advantages of using Google scholar for research
· It gives an option of seeing an article related to one another which is not available in the online library. This makes search easier and simpler, you can easily get an article that interest you search your research topic
· Google scholar gives an easier option of citing the work and at the same time give a link of the articles and books held in ECU libraries
· It is easier to use
· It is free so u can access it anytime anywhere so long as you have internet connection
Disadvantages of using Google scholar for a research topic
· Google Scholar's scope is far reaching yet not exhaustive. It can be an exploration source, yet ought not to be the main source you utilize.
· Google Scholar does not give the criteria to what makes its outcomes "insightful". Results are frequently fluctuating in quality and it is up to the scientist to figure out which of the outcomes are appropriate for their motivations.
· Google Scholar does not enable clients to restrict results to either peer inspected or full content materials or by teaching.
· Google Scholar does not give notice of when its materials are refreshed.
· Google Scholar's reference tracker can be hard to utilize and mistaken.
WHERE TO START CHP. 2
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
· Discuss how a hypothesis differs from a prediction.
· Describe the different sources of ideas for research, including common sense, observation, theories, past research, and practical problems.
· Identify the two functions of a theory.
· Summarize the fundamentals of conducting library research in psychology, including the use of PsycINFO.
· Summarize the information included in the abstract, introduction, method, results, and discussion sections of research articles.
Page 21THE MOTIVATION TO CONDUCT SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH DERIVES FROM A NATURAL CURIOSITY ABOUT THE WORLD. Most people have their first experience with research when their curiosity leads them to ask, “I wonder what would happen if …” or “I wonder why …,” followed by an attempt to answer the question. What are the sources of inspiration for such questions? How do you find out about other people's ideas and past research? In this chapter, we will explore some sources of scientific ideas. We will also consider the nature of research reports published in professional journals.
RESEARCH QUESTIONS, HYPOTHESES, AND PREDICTIONS
The result of curiosity is a question. Researchers use research questions to identify and describe the broad topic that they are investigating, and then conduct research in order to answer their research questions. A good research question identifies the topic of inquiry specifically enough so that hypotheses and predictions can be made. A hypothesis is also a question; it makes a statement about something that may be true. Hypotheses are more specific versions of research questions; they are directly testable whereas a research question may not be. Thus, a hypothesis is a tentative idea ...

Say Hello to Research!
Walk down the hall in any building on your campus where social and
behavioral science professors have their offices in such departments as
psychology, education, nursing, sociology, and human development. Do you
see any bearded, disheveled, white-coated men wearing rumpled pants and
smoking pipes, hunched over their computers and mumbling to themselves?
How about disheveled, white-coated women wearing rumpled skirts, smoking
pipes, hunched over their computers, and mumbling to themselves?
Researchers hard at work? No. Stereotypes of what scientists look like
and do? Yes. What you are more likely to see in the halls of your classroom
building or in your adviser’s office are men and women of all ages who are
hard at work. They are committed to finding the answer to just another piece
of the great puzzle that helps us understand human behavior a little better
than the previous generation of scientists.
Like everyone else, these people go to work in the morning, but unlike
many others, these researchers have a passion for understanding what they
study and for coming as close as possible to finding the “truth.” Although these
truths can be elusive and sometimes even unobtainable, researchers work
toward discovering them for the satisfaction of answering important questions
and then using this new information to help others. Early intervention
programs, treatments of psychopathology, new curricula, conflict resolution
techniques, effective drug treatment programs, and even changes in policy and
law have resulted from evidence collected by researchers. Although not always
perfect, each little bit of evidence gained from a new study or a new idea for a
study contributes to a vast legacy of knowledge for the next generation of
researchers such as yourself.
You may already know and appreciate something about the world of
research. The purpose of this book is to provide you with the tools you need to
do even more, such as
• develop an understanding of the research process.
• prepare yourself to conduct research of your own.
• learn how to judge the quality of research.
• learn how to read, search through, and summarize other research.
• learn the value of research activities conducted online.
• reveal the mysteries of basic statistics and show you how easily they can
be used.
• measure the behaviors, traits, or attributes that interest you.
• collect the type of data that relate to your area of interest.
• use a leading statistical package (SPSS) to analyze data.
• design research studies that answer the question that you want answered.
• write the type of research proposal (and a research report) that puts you in control—
one that shows you have command of the content of the resear ...

The Action Research Dissertation: A Guide for Students and Faculty text
2
Action Research Traditions and Knowledge Interests
As we discussed in Chapter 1, action research is a cover term for several approaches that have emerged from different traditions. Everyone who uses action research for a dissertation should be steeped in the particular tradition they are working out of and its attendant methodological, epistemological, and political dilemmas (e.g., participatory action research [PAR], teacher research, community-based participatory research, etc.). We do not pretend to provide this level of grounding in this chapter, but we do try to provide some sense of how these traditions relate to each other and where students and faculty can go for more extensive accounts. There are several historical overviews of action research, but most are told from a particular intellectual and social tradition, such as the overviews provided by Anderson et al. (2007, practitioner research); Argyris, Putnam, and Smith (1985, action science); Bullough and Pinnegar (2001, self-study); Chambers (1997, participatory rural appraisal); Cochran-Smith and Lytle (1993, teacher research); Fals Borda (2001, participatory action research); Greenwood and Levin (2006, action research); and Maguire (1987b, feminist participatory action research). In this section, we will try to be as inclusive as possible so that students consulting this book for guidance on their dissertations can find their particular tradition of action research represented. There is also a need for a participatory dialogue among these traditions, which academic departmentalization has tended to balkanize into self-contained scholarly communities and bibliographies.
Historians are in the business of creating—not discovering or interpreting—historical meaning. In this chapter, we have done our best to get our “facts” straight, but the meaning one makes of them will depend on who is telling the story. To our knowledge, no attempt at a comprehensive history of action research exists, and our intent is not to provide one here. While the previous chapter attempted to offer some common elements of action research, there may be as much variation across action research traditions as there is between action research and some mainstream approaches to research. Some action research is group oriented and some is individual oriented; some is done by those within the setting and some is done by change agents from outside the organization in collaboration with insiders; and some is highly participatory and some is much less so. Similarly, some see the goal of action research as improving practice or developing individuals, whereas others see its goal as transforming practice, participants, organizations, or, in some cases, even society. Debates rage within action research around these issues.
To the extent possible, our goal in this book is to present all of these perspectives in an evenhanded way. ...
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

1. Gathering Ideas
about Psychology
• Identify the argument in a piece
of reading
• Compare and contrast key points
from a range of reading
• Suggest reasons for differences
between pieces of reading
2. What do we mean by argument?
Expressing a point of view and giving the reasons why you have that point of view.
3. Find the argument
In pairs:
• identify the argument of the
paragraph you have been given
• break the paragraph down into WEED
4. What’s the argument?
We often dismiss terrorists as non-humans, monsters, at first but when we learn that they were seemingly
normal individuals with families and jobs, it is hard not to wonder about how their minds really work. The
search for a terrorist “personality” or “mindset” dominated psychological research in the 1970s and 1980s
and remains a significant area for research today. A new study published in Nature Human Bahviour, which
assessed the cognitive and psychological profiles of 66 Colombian paramilitaries imprisoned for committing
terrorist acts, now argues that poor moral reasoning is what defines terrorists and have attempted to define
a single predictive ‘marker’ for terrorist behaviour. However, more psychologists are now beginning to
believe that a number of key psychological components are fundamental to the radicalisation
process. These include motivation, group ideologies and social processes that encourage progressive
distancing from former friends, for example. Rather than measuring to predict, we might be better off
devoting resources to improve understanding of what motivates individuals to join the ranks of violent
extremists. Therefore, quality psychological research aimed at searching for multiple markers of the
radicalisation process, such as changes in dress, behaviour and social circles may be fruitful. Increasingly
important, is that the more we find out about terrorists’ quest for significance, the better we can
understand the identity and social issues that are fundamental to radicalisation. There is every reason to be
optimistic that psychology can be a powerful tool in the fight against terrorism.
5. So, how is an
argument built?
How does
knowing this
help us identify
an argument?
6. What’s the argument?
Each group has two different
pieces of reading and you
have been given one of them
to read.
Read and identify the
argument and how it has been
built.
Compare with the other group
members who have read the
same article: have you found
the same argument?
Share what you have found
with the others in your group
who read the different article.

8. Some current research suggests that a high level of media multitasking is associated with
lower levels of educational achievement due to the distraction it can cause For example,
Bellur, Nowak and Hull (2015) surveyed 361 students on technology usage and high school
estimated Grade Point Average (GPA). They found that media multitasking during class
reduces GPA by lowering students’ ability to concentrate. However, a common theme of
media multitasking that has been central to current research is the ability to switch
attention between mediums, and some of these studies may question Bellur, Nowak and
Hull’s (2015) findings. Minear et al. (2013), for example, found no correlation between
frequencies of media multitasking and task switching ability. Their study participants
indicate that cognition ability may have evolved to ignore irrelevant information as a coping
mechanism for the increasing levels of media in day to day life. This suggests that human
cognition does have the ability to process the ever-increasing levels of external stimuli and
that media multitasking may not have a negative impact on concentration levels.
Using a grid makes it easier to write comparisons. Look at how this Psychology student has
done it for an esssay on whether students' media multitaksing is associated with distraction
levels, using two articles from their grid.

Homework
Find your next article/podcast on Psychology and
write summary notes
Editor's Notes
5 minutes Chosen students to share their article/podcast: what does it say? Q and A on why they chose it and their thoughts on it.
5 minutes Explain LOs and plan for session. Explain how this is building on their work on summarising by moving on to position/opinion/conclusion in what they’re reading – getting deeper into their reading by picking out an argument and of more than one reading (remind them that doing this is part of their first assignment, and that some comparison could be a way of getting higher marks – it could be worth getting it up on the screen to remind them and highlight how each week, we have been building up their ability to complete it, from what type of information to use and how you find it, to summarising, comparing and contrasting, all with some good academic writing and strong paragraph structures)
Then going to ask them a question – who agrees/disagrees with a statement (anything you want - just something simple. Ask them their opinion but also why they think that. Then we can point out that that is their argument, if they have given a valid reason for their position – we give arguments all the time – leading into the next slide.
5 minutes - Some brief input: What do we mean by argument? It is NOT a disagreement/row. Why argument is part of academic reading and writing. Lead into next activity.
10-15 mins including feedback discussion. Paragraph to be provided on handout. They have to identify the argument in a piece of writing and think about reasons why this writer may be putting forward this argument. This is also an opportunity to get them to break it down into WEED to reinforce (clarify?) last week.
To have up during their feedback.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnqRydWXJo0 - if it doesn’t play from the slide. This is to move them on from their original feedback on the article to thinking about the way in which an academic argument is built – identifying the argument in a more systematic way. Follow up the video with a little Q and A to check their learning.
15 minutes Reading group: two readings shared out amongst the group- ideally two students reading each piece of reading in each group (differentiated based on observation and assessment to date – allows parity of contribution when sharing). The readings have been chosen to cover range of popular Psychology topics that may become relevant in later modules across their degree – this is to be made explicit to them so they see the relevance of what they’re reading (they may even decide at the end of the year to swap strands to focus on for the rest of their degree.) Individually read and identify the argument made in their article, then discuss with the other person in their group to see if they have found the same elements, and then the two share with the other two in reading group. NB – each group will have a different topic/set of readings
5 minutes Back to some input: introduce a very basic reading grid as a way of tracking their reading (filled in with the two example piece of reading they worked through at the start), noting the argument but then how it allows them to compare and contrast.
Show them this as an example of how to write a short compaorison of two articles. It uses two articles mentioned on the grid – picked out as way of showing compoarson betwneen just two, even through three are mentioned on the grid. That is to show them how to build one up. Some of the language can also be highlighted here as a way of modelling their own writing. The work they have already done on summarising their reading can also be referred to explicitly here – how a good summary is the foundation of a good comparison, and part if the identification of an argument. If there is time, they can now be encourgaed to conplete a grid int heir grousp for the two articles they have been reading. If there is no time, they can still move on to the next activty.
20 minutes They then use this to prepare a presentation of about 5 minutes each. This can be scaffolded with some guidance on structure (intro the topic, argument of article 1, argument of article 2, start drawing comparisons and contrasts with some acknowledgement of why they could be different. leading to a summing up)
