...Gathering Research Data Paper Hayley Lacy CJA/334 April 11, 2016 Rhonda Grant Gathering Research Data Paper Police officers are viewed by the masses of Americans that they are sworn to protect as the men and women in blue. They have sworn to protect the innocent and keep them from harm’s way and in turn do much more than that for their community. It takes an extraordinaire person to be a police officer. They are someone who is willing to dedicate their lives, health and safety in order to protect those who depend on them. In this paper we will attempt to address and research an interest that has been voiced concerning police officers and their jobs. In this paper we will state the purpose behind our proposed research. We will inform you of the interview structure we will use and we will inform you as to some of the questions that we would ask. We will give distinct advantages of a qualitative data-gathering strategy, such as participant observation, over more qualitative approaches. We will inform you when conducting survey research the importance of informed consent and confidentiality. It is a common conception that police officers choose their particular career path simply because they are inheriting a family member’s desire. They choose to be an officer because their father or their mother or a relative was an officer. It is a common conception that officers are not chosen they are inherited and expected to be from family. This area of interest is something...

...Research Strategy Paper LaTanya Scott GEN/200 March 15, 2010 Sara Bleything Cohrs Research Strategy Paper The struggle I have that I would like to accomplish in resolving is helping myself and teaching my 6 year old daughter patience. This is a very hard subject for me because I am actually responsible for some the behavior that my daughter have. My daughter R’moni is very spoiled, which started from my father. At that time she was the first granddaughter. When I was 23, I was separated from my first husband and I moved from St. Joseph, Missouri to Kansas city, Kansas where I stayed with my father and step-mother. My father became a big role as a father figure in R’moni’s life. My father was never really involved in raising me, when my parents separated. My father helped me a lot with r’moni financially as well as being supportive making sure that she knows who her grandfather was. It is hard for my dad to say no to her sometimes and he allows her to take advantage and get away with things. If she does not get what she wants she will whine which after a while it becomes very nerve wrecking and irritating. It came to points that start to scream at her and sometimes I spank her on her legs and arms. I was also not really involved in her life. At that time when r’moni was two months until she was three, I was working two jobs to provide a home and other necessities for us. That also cause her to act out being resentful and whining all the time. It took a great...

...ASSIGNMENT 4 SECTION 1: RESEARCH PROPOSAL : The importance of fatherhood in children lives. | | Please study the topics and reading material of Quality Circle 2 and complete the following sections of the research proposal: | | 3 INTRODUCTION3.1 Problem StatementThere has been an explosion in research on the benefits of having engaged and involved fathers, as well as the deleterious consequences of father absence. Although the negative outcomes for fatherless children are pervasive and impact all ethnicities, the focus of this qualitative research is on understanding the lived experiences of a particular family that has suffered through the pain of three generations of father absence. The literature regarding father absence is reviewed, and the negative outcomes associated with fatherless children are explored. The father absence literature categorically concludes that the father’s role is essential in child development. This problem statement project aims to develop a program from a Christian perspective that can be implemented in churches or faith-based groups to address the issue of father absence. The ultimate goal of this project is to reconnect fathers in a research demonstrating that children from single parent homes experience disadvantages when compared to their peers. In addition, the pain and emotional longing for the absentee father often persists into adulthood. Jeanne M. Hilton and Esther L. Devall, (1998), 23-54; This paper provides a practical resource...

...Death and Children Capricia Wilder University of Phoenix PSYCH/600 April 7, 2014 Sarah Dross Death and Children This paper will discuss the finding from research gathered and personal experience that a child who loses a parent at a young age may struggle not only emotionally but also academically and socially. Losing a parent as a young child can have a detrimental effect on a child’s learning ability and emotional growth. Losing a parent at a young age can scare a child for life and make them emotionally detached and cause the child to have abandonment issues as an adult. How a death of a parent effects a child scholastically The death of a parent on any aged child is extremely painful and very difficult to understand. For a child who is still very young and just starting on their scholastic journey a death of a parent can be very confusing and hard to accept. A child in elementary school may not know how to answer the questions that their peers may ask them about the death. The child may also not understand how to handle the rush of emotions that they may experience when something reminds them of their parent that was lost. This is a very hard age to explain in great detail what has transpired and the child will have trouble grasping the reality of the situation. A child who loses a parent in middle school or junior high is more capable of grasping the situation and the finality of the event. According to "When...

...Critical Thinking Draft and self-evaluation December 25, 2013 One of the arguments in my paper states that “when both parents are in the home with the child every day, that child has more stability.” According to Professor Paul Amato of Pennsylvania State University, who recently conducted a research, he wanted to know the difference between children raises in two parent house hold verses one parent house hold. His research proved that “Children from single parent families have “more behavioral problems, more emotional problems, and lower levels of school engagement (that is, caring about school and doing homework).” This argument is informal http://www.families.com/blog/children-benefit-from-two-parent-families Then my next argument stated that “when single mothers are raising children without the father in the home children are being disciplined less.” Therefore I done some research and found that according to (Campbell, 1993) “Not only do fathers enforce gender norms more than mothers, they do so more strongly on boys than girls. For “most men…an effeminate son is far more worrying than a tomboy daughter. The father places heavy emphasis on the avoidance of feminine behaviors, rather than on the active encouragement of masculine ones.” Fathers’ own “masculinity” influences boys’ development in ways that are unclear at best.”166 Even though I have some evidence that proves my argument, this is still an informal fallacy because not all children of single mother behave...

...great role models for their children. My parents always told me that you should treat others as you wanted to be treated. I have built my values and ethics around this statement. This paper will cover some of the remnants of my parents. My younger years as a child, along with the career I have chosen. Then the paper will cover some academic goals. The information contained in this paper will explain why I am unique. Parents In looking back at my parents I can say that they were always honest and to the point. The family was Christian based, and my brother and I truly enjoyed our upbringing. Both of my parents were stern. My father was US Army and taught us to be on time and keep things picked up and clean. My mother raised me to be respectful and polite at all times. There were equal rights and punishments across the board when it came to decisions. My father truly believed that accountability was one of the greatest things in life. However, we were taught that each individual in society was to be considered basically good until they gave you reason to doubt the fact. Honestly my parents got separated when I turned 20 years old. Their separation was under circumstances that I was always taught was wrong. I questioned everything I was ever taught. I looked long and hard for answers to questions like was I taught correctly. Then I realized that as humans we have a right to make both good and bad choices. This was just one time where my father made a bad choice. However this did...

Plag. “Family Separation and Reunion: Families of Prisoners of War and Servicemen Missing in Action”. Washington, D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office, 1975. Print. This book delves into the lives of children that have an absence of their fathers caused by the assignment of the military. These authors pinpoint some of the difficult obstructions these children have to face while these men are MIA (missing in action). They talk about the adjustment and the adapting to the prolonged and seemingly indefinite absence of a father, and how a relationship between a father and child changes over the long period of time until the veteran returns. Moreover, they collected data from 42 families of returned prisoners of the Vietnam War and attempted to identify a combination of factors that could explain the variability in the quality of the father-child relationship subsequent to the returning from the War. This information from this book will help convey emotional lives that these children have to endure. This book will strengthen my research by pointing out how children are affected when there is a nonattendance of one of the parents for a long period of time. Bowen, L. Gary, Dennis K. Orthner.

...SHOULD ABORTION BE LEGAL? By MARY W. DOUGLAS FINAL PAPER PHL-103INFORMAL LOGIC ANTHONY BIDUCK-INSTRUCTOR SEPTEMBER 8, 2013 Final Paper DouglasM1 Thesis The definition of abortion is the induced termination of a pregnancy followed by the death of the embryo or fetus. The paper is presented on the moral issues of Abortion. Should abortion be legal? As today’s society becomes more open-minded to an issue normally handled behind closed doors being performed by persons with no medical degree whatsoever, the choice should be left to the individual whether or not to have an abortion. Abortion is an eight letter word that has become a label that society applies to the procedure in which a pregnancy is purposely ended for many reasons. Let us examine the subject of legalizing abortion. Argument Abortion has been a very controversial topic for many years. With women’s rights to vote, the right to burn their bras if they wanted to, and the right to eliminate a developing fetus from a woman’s body has become a great debate. Abortion is a subject that questions the morals of an individual and their decision as to whether to have one or not. Moral philosophy has always investigated the rules and principles...

...Life Span Development and Personality Paper Life Span Development and Personality Paper Faith L. Mayo Axia College of University of Phoenix Life Span Development and Personality Paper Adolf Hitler was a famous individual from the 20th century; his story has been well known for many years and will continue to spread through time as it was a memorable part of our history. He was the founder and leader of the Nazi party from 1933-1945 (Wistrich, 1997). His father was Alois Hitler, who was an authoritarian disciplinarian. He was strongly attached to his mother Klara Poelzl, she was a strong woman and a very hard worker. Once she passed away from cancer, Adolf Hitler began to show signs of moodiness, temperamental, and not willing to work (Wistrich, 1997). He moved to Vienna in 1907 and applied to Viennese Academy of Fine Arts, which he was rejected. This was the final turning point for Adolf Hitler. According to the Holocaust Education & Archive Research Team; in 1913, Hitler moved to Munich to join the Sixteenth Bavarian Infantry Regiment, serving as a despatch runner. He was badly wounded and placed in gas chambers for four weeks. Once he was released, he had to recuperate in a hospital for three months (C.W. and CL Heart, 2007). Hitler believed this would be his fate; to punish those that had embarrassed him in front of his nation; the Jewish and the Bolsheviks. In 1919, Hitler started out with 40 members by his side and used the...
