Name and briefly discuss three demographic or psychological correlates of heterosexual’s people’s attitudes toward gay men and lesbians

1. Name and briefly discuss three demographic or psychological correlates of heterosexual’s people’s attitudes toward gay men and lesbians (discussed in the assigned chapter). Demographic correlates include things like gender, age, political affiliation, income, race, education level, socioeconomic status, and geographic location, whereas psychological correlates include things like authoritarianism (or a psychological predisposition toward strict obedience to authority at the expense of personal freedom), egalitarianism (or a belief that people should be treated fairly), and religious fundamentalism.  2. Name and briefly discuss three historical events that might have contributed to the shift in attitudes toward gay men and lesbians over time (see assigned chapter).3. What American values or principles might help us to understand how someone might hold negative attitudes toward gay people while supporting their rights (even if, as a group, people with negative attitudes toward gay men and lesbians are less likely to support rights than those with positive attitudes)? See Williams’ list from Week 1 as well as the assigned chapter.

Explain the theory by indicating who came up with it, and how it has evolved.

Description A conceptual framework is a student’s idea of how a particular problem will need to be studied. A conceptual framework describes the key points and topics that make up the research question. A theoretical framework is a blueprint that defines how the student will study a problem. It is based on a theory or a set of theories. The theory defines the scope of how the research question will be explored. Choosing a framework is like choosing a research topic. The process can be instant or complicated. There are a seemingly endless number of theories and conceptual frameworks to choose from. At its core, the framework must make sense for the topic. One might consider transformational leadership for a research topic that explores how leaders can increase employee retention. The same theory might not apply to how to market effectively. A reasonable first step in choosing a framework is to explore research papers and dissertations on similar topics. The literature review of dissertations will discuss the framework in detail, supporting frameworks, and contrasting ones. They can often show you a valid framework or at least serve as a guide to point you in the right direction. Be sure to review the attached resources carefully. You are expected to apply the information from these resources when you prepare your assignments. For this assignment, you are asked to validate the use of theory and conceptual frameworks used in research. To complete this assignment, you will first describe what a conceptual and theoretical framework is. Once you have defined and described, then using the North Central University (NCU) library, locate four DBA NCU dissertations, each with a different theoretical framework or conceptual framework. Dedicate about half a page synopsis on each. Then, explain what the theory or concept is and why you think the selected theory was appropriate for the research problem/dissertation. To complete the assignment, locate one theory or conceptual framework on your own outside of these sources on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the Workplace. You can find it through scholarly web searches, dissertations, journal articles, etc. Explain the theory by indicating who came up with it, and how it has evolved. Being able to explain seminal work and evolution of a theory is used in the theoretical framework and literature review at the dissertation phas
