Students will be required to complete a research paper that explores social psychological contributions to the research on a particular social problem. One easy way to approach this assignment is using issues of the Journal of Social Issues. Each issue of this journal is focused on a different social problem. The inside rear cover of each issue lists the topics that have been covered during the past twelve years. Recent issues have examined social psychological approaches to studying homelessness, promotion of a sustainable future, gender stereotyping, privacy, sexual harassment, and the relationship between religion and personal and social well-being. This will be an eight to nine page paper including the title page, abstract page, and reference page. Use the APA style manual for publication as a resource for formatting your paper (to the best of your ability). You may choose to write on any topic found in the text, but please narrow your topic so there can be an in-depth analysis of it (depth is better than breadth). You must include at least 6 scholarly resources and cite them in your work. The book cannot count as one of your sources; although you may use the book sparingly to define your topic. The text of your paper should be double spaced, have one inch margins, and be written in twelve-point font size (Times New Roman or Arial style). Ten percent will be deducted for each day that your paper is late. Before the final paper is turned in, topic selection (5 points), an annotated bibliography (10 points), and student editing (10 points) will be due on the dates found in the schedule below.This research paper explores social psychological contributions to the research on a particular social problem.
