PSY 362 Benchmark Research Reflection

ORDER NOW FOR THE ORIGINAL PAPER: PSY 362 Benchmark Research Reflection

Details:
Social competence is a complex concept consisting of social, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral skills. For example, one might change social interactions based on the situational perspective of another individual. Cultural competency enables organizations to work in cross-cultural situations based on skills, attitudes, behaviors, and policies. For example, it is important to provide health care services that meet the needs of all patients and addresses diversity issues.
In 500-750 words, address why social and cultural competency is critical in the research process. Be sure to address the following prompts:

  1. Define social and cultural competency
  2. Evaluate the importance of these concepts in terms of social psychological research.
  3. Give an example of a social psychological concept that can be understood from a cross-cultural perspective (e.g., social self, emotion, attitudes, fundamental attribution error)
  4. Why does cultural competency matter when researching a concept like the one you chose?
  5. Discuss problems that might occur if cross-cultural perspectives are neglected in the research. Be sure to share an example(s). Use two to three scholarly resources to support your explanations.

PSY 362 Topic 2 CLC Ethics and IRB GCU

Details:
This is a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment. You will be assigned group in class.We have navigated through much research to date. As you know, ethical considerations are vital during this process. After reading about Milgram’s compliance experiment and many of the early studies in social psychology, it becomes clear that participants in social psychology have suffered harm. There are safeguards in place today within the American Psychological Association’s Code of Ethics (2016) with regard to research. Institutional Review Boards have also been put in place to protect both human and animal research participants.Imagine your CLC group sits on an Institutional Review Board (IRB) and someone like Phillip Zombardo or Stanley Milgram provides you with a research proposal to conduct the same experiment(s).Task: Do some research and chose an unethical study that has been conducted thus far (i.e., Monster Study, Aversion Project, Dr. Money/David Reimer, Learned Helplessness).A quick internet search will reveal other ideas.Your job is to approve the study, approve with modifications, or reject the study completely. Using the APA Code of Ethics, justify your group’s determination. The code of ethics can be found at http://www.apa.org/ethics/code/index.aspx

Create a PowerPoint presentation, of 8-12 slides (slide count does not include the title and reference slide), in which your group presents their decision. Your PowerPoint should include:

  1. Provide a summary of the experiment.
  2. Identify some general ethical concerns with the experiment.
  3. Using the APA Code of Ethics, identify at least five specific ethic codes that were violated with this study. Be sure to explain why there was a code violation.
  4. Provide your decision as an IRB if you will approve the study, approve it with modifications, or flat out reject it all together.

Use two to three scholarly resources for support. Your textbook is a viable source. Resources should be listed on the last slide.

Include speaker notes below each content-related slide that represent what would be said if giving the presentation in person. Expand upon the information included in the slide and do not simply restate it. Please ensure the speaker notes include 50-75 words per slide.

NOTE: Save and upload your PowerPoint as a PDF if it’s too large
While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, including an APA formatted reference slide, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
