Construct your Own Religion and explain why it would flourish using relevant religious based psychological theory and research

Constructing your Own Religion and explain why it would be flourish using relevant religious based psychological theory and research

• Word limit: 2,500 words. This maximum does not include the Reference list.

What is the core or fundamental aspects of religion? What makes a religion successful?

Your task is to construct your own religion – a religion that would be successful and flourish. And explain why the religion will be successful and support it with religious based psychological research and theory.

Please try to include these theory in the essay.

• Coalitional Commitment Hypothesis
• Supernatural punishment hypothesis

• Costly signaling theory

How would you craft your religion to ensure that it is successful? When devising your religion make sure you answer the following questions, and support ALL your decisions with evidence from psychological science:

1. What is the name of your religion and how did it historically come about?
2. How is your religion structured or organized?
3. What rituals and practices do adherents of your religion engage in?
4. What behaviors does your religion expect from its adherents?
5. What beliefs do practitioners of your religion endorse and adhere to?

Make sure to answer these questions and clearly demonstrate how the various aspects of your religion promote its flourishing and support your claims with arguments and evidence from psychological science! Alternatively, you might wish to argue that your new religion will not flourish. In this case, you still need to support your arguments with evidence from psychological science!

• Make sure the arguments and content reflect a deep grasp of psychological approaches to religion
• and are empirically supported with evidence and citations.

What are the strengths, limits, problems, or gaps in the Israel Lobby argument?

Paper 2: Analyzing Institutions and Processes

Consider the Mearsheimer and Walt article, “The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy.” It has become a controversial article in academic and policy circles with its claim that the lobby influences US foreign policy in detrimental ways. However, the authors have been severely criticized by many policy experts (among others) who rebut their claims. See the Learn section for the Mearsheimer and Walt article and the rebuttal articles. Your assignment is to write an analysis of the Mearsheimer and Walt article and these rebuttals.

Complete the following instructions:

• Using the sources listed at the bottom of the blog site above as a starting point, read at least 5 or more rebuttals to Mearsheimer and Walt’s argument. You may discover other sources on your own from the library or Internet.
• Among the articles read, identify the strongest points against the Israel Lobby argument.
• Make these points the basis of your critique of the Israel Lobby argument. What are the strengths, limits, problems, or gaps in the Israel Lobby argument?

What are the limits, problems, or gaps in the author’s argument?

Analyzing Theory and Grand Strategy

Select any one of the textbook readings – except Huntington’s Clash of Civilizations. Students may NOT write about the Huntington article in this section as it will be a MID-TERM question. Complete the following instructions and note:

• In a single opening paragraph, briefly summarize the author’s argument. The short abstract provided at the beginning of each article already does this, but do not copy and paste it, since it must flow with the overall tenor of your own style and argument.
• In the next section of the essay, offer a concise defense of the argument. Why is it at least plausible? There is always something rationally defensible about a peer-reviewed journal article on US foreign policy.
• For the remainder of your response, offer a critique of the article. What are the limits, problems, or gaps in the author’s argument? There are limits, problems, or gaps in every argument. You do not have to have answers to the problems you identify, but you must be able to at least develop questions about the claims made by the author.

how does out-of-pocket healthcare expenditure by single mothers relate to income loss?

LITERATURE AND DATA ANALYSIS- PAPER 2

Overview of Research

Single parents and their children often have poor health and poor social results. From the 1960s, the number of children staying with single parents, specifically mothers, has doubled. According to the Census Bureau (2019), single mothers represented 30% of families with children in the United States. In the US, the most common arrangement is for a child to live with both its parents, but in case of divorce or separation, single mothers end up taking the children’s full custody. Single-mother families have critical healthcare implications, and Single-mother families face more significant threats of poverty and economic issues. For instance, a study in 2020 revealed that poverty levels in single-mother families were 31% higher than in both-parent families. Among employees, single mothers are more likely to be poor and are more likely to be uninsured than mothers from two-parent families. The poverty levels and lack of health insurance result in higher rates of unattended health needs in single-mother families instead of both-parent families.

ACA (Affordable Care Act) was enacted in 2010. It increased health insurance to the citizens, restricted rescinding insurance plans, and restricted the enforcement of yearly and lifetime deadlines on health advantages. ACA also brought about revenue-related premiums and cost-sharing deductions and called coverage for vital healthcare. Despite the ACA enactment, the initiative failed to deliver its promises to families. To date, a significant number of Americans are straining to cater to their healthcare needs out-of-pocket. Therefore, the research question for this paper is; how does out-of-pocket healthcare expenditure by single mothers relate to income loss? Additionally, the research answers to; do the income losses compromise the health welfare of single-mothered families?

Be extra critical: is there something in your course so far that you have been sceptical about, or which you think needs further study?

This assessment requires you to submit a 2,500-word assignment in the format of a research proposal with an embedded literature review. It should reflect a ‘typical’ research proposal that you would produce if applying for research funding for a specific project or postgraduate study. This assignment will assess your ability to design a research study alongside evaluating relevant academic literature on a topic of your choice. You should reference your work within the text and must include a reference list; format your referencing according to Harvard Cite them Right.

This assessment counts toward 100% of your mark for this module.

This assignment must be submitted through Blackboard using Turnitin.

Learning Outcomes

This assessment will test your ability to meet learning outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 as described in your module booklet:

1. Evaluate relevant academic literature;
2. Develop appropriate research questions;
3. Explain the key features of qualitative and quantitative research approaches;
4. Identify the advantages and disadvantages of different research methods.
5. Design a research project.

Aims of Assessment

• To assess your ability to present findings from published literature;
• To assess your ability to critically review material presented in the literature;
• To evaluate your professional research study and writing skills;
• To ensure that you are able to reference your sources using an accepted referencing system (Harvard Cite them Right);
• To assess your knowledge of research methods.
• To encourage you to read and understand the published literature, particularly peer-reviewed journal articles;

Assessment criteria

Your submission should demonstrate research of and reference to academic sources (peer reviewed journal articles, books and reports), and an understanding of relevant theories and methods. You will be marked according to the content and communication of the research literature within your project.

Project Proposal Guidance

1. Project design:

• Be extra critical: is there something in your course so far that you have been sceptical about, or which you think needs further study?
• Look for gaps in the research and recommendations for further study in the conclusion of papers and reports to identify a potential aim and RQ.
• Read about an interesting topic and keep asking the question ‘Why?’: this may identify a research question you could address. While we encourage you to design a research proposal for something that particularly interests you, remember that it needs to be connected to the course content (Policing, Forensics, CSI) you have been exposed to on your undergraduate degree.
• Think about feasibility – how possible is it to undertake the research you are proposing? Marks will be awarded according to how researchable a project is.
• Length – as your assignment is 2,500 words in total, we recommend you devote 1000 words of this to the project proposal outlining aims, objectives and RQs, methodology and ethical considerations for your chosen project.
• There are examples of Project proposals on Blackboard to assist you.
• Follow the template provided to structure your research proposal.
• Do not write in first person – refer to ‘this analysis indicates’, ‘the proposed aims will address’, ‘the discussion will explore’, ‘the evidence base suggests’ etc.

2. Literature Review:

• A literature review requires you to collate current, relevant information on a given topic. Typically, the purpose of a literature review is to gain an understanding of the existing research and arguments relevant to a particular topic or area of study, and to present that knowledge in the form of a written report.
• Conducting a literature review helps you to build your knowledge in your field, as well as succinctly informing your reader. This should not be an exhaustive list describing all of the research completed on the topic; it should identify the major studies and most pertinent issues.

• The literature review should start with an introductory paragraph, that includes an overview of the problem/topic and the scope of your review.
• You should discuss similar findings together, identifying key findings and limitations and/or criticisms of the work.
• Aim to develop a clear argument and identify any gaps in the existing understanding.
• The literature review should end with a concluding paragraph that summarises your key points/arguments. Remember, we don’t just want to know what’s been done and what we already know, we want to understand where the gaps in knowledge are and why this is important (practical/theoretical implications).
• Length – as your assignment is 2,500 words in total, we recommend you devote 1,500 words of this to the literature review portion of your proposal outlining the research problem with explicit support from the wider literature.

Tips:

• Read published literature reviews (found at the beginning of journal articles) for an awareness of the structure, writing style and content.
• Discussion sections (found at the end of journal articles) can be useful indicators as to the gaps in understanding and requirements for future work.
• Reference lists of published work can be helpful in directing you to additional relevant sources of information.

Presentation of work

Your work must be word processed and presented in accordance with the guidelines laid down in the Assessment Handbook. It is your responsibility to ensure that your work is neatly and accurately presented and you will lose marks for poor spelling, grammar and sentence construction.

Referencing Style

Any piece of written work must be referenced. That means citing the literature to say where you got that piece of information and to enable the reader to go to the original source. All citations and references must be in Harvard format as outlined by ‘Cite them Right’ Referencing (see Blackboard web links and Useful information). If you do not do this you will unnecessarily lose marks.

Word Count

The word limit is 2,500 words +/- 10%. This excludes the reference list.

Is the proportion of people who consider shopping at Amazon Fresh greater than 50%?

This part is made out of TWO separate and unconnected case studies.

Case study 1: Amazon Fresh

The new Amazon Till-Less shop (Amazon Fresh) has just opened in London. It offers a shopping experience without the use of a till for payment. A study with an objective to examine the level of take-up for shopping Till-Less was conducted and has set the following research questions:

• • RQ1: Is the proportion of people who consider shopping at Amazon Fresh greater than 50%?

• • RQ2: Is the proportion of people who consider shopping at Amazon Fresh different between those who are comfortable with mobile technology and those who are not?

A simple random survey, conducted among shoppers at a traditional food supermarket, used an instrument in which the following two questions are of interest for this study.

The dataset for this survey is collated in the SPSS and Jamovi files “Amazon”.

Required:

For this case study, we are required to produce the following tasks

1. Produce a frequency table for the dependent variable “Take up” and report your findings.

[Max: 50 words]

2. Conduct an appropriate hypothesis test fully to inform on the RQ1 above. [Max: 50 words]

3. Conduct an appropriate hypothesis test fully to inform on the RQ2 above. [Max: 50 words]

4. General question: Explain clearly and in your own words the reason for conducting a hypothesis test instead of simply comparing sample statistics of RQ2 above. [Max: 100 words]

The output for the two tests above is included in the appendix at the end of this brief. You may decide to produce your own output by using the data available to you. You should insert the appropriate output to evidence your reports.

The reports should follow the classic research style adopted during the online classes. For full marks, you should clearly state the null and alternative hypotheses for each test.
