Physicians have caused the opioid crisis by over-prescribing pain medications that are highly addictive

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapter 9 in your textbook, the required articles, Why the Opioid Epidemic May Have Fueled America’s Murder Spike (Links to an external site.) and Opioid Epidemic So Dangerous, Says CDC, It’s Finally Killing More People Than Guns (Links to an external site.), and watch the video: Warning: This Drug May Kill You (Links to an external site.). The opioid crisis has become a controversial issue but one that is becoming harder and harder to ignore. In the context of the relationship between psychology and criminal behavior, substance abuse is one of the leading risk factors for criminal behavior. Therefore, the opioid crisis is an issue that criminal psychologists, public health professionals, and our community-at-large are examining the implications, the most crucial of which appears to be a relationship between homicide/violent crime rates and opioid abuse. In your discussion,

Conduct additional research on the opioid crisis using the University of Arizona Global Campus to ensure you are aware of the latest issues in the opioid crisis national debate. Then, briefly debate the issue with your classmates. Your instructor will assign you to one of the two prompts. Please debate the issue from the perspective that:

Prompt 1: Physicians have caused the opioid crisis by over-prescribing pain medications that are highly addictive, and
Prompt 2: From the perspective that the person taking the opiates is responsible for the person’s own behavior and doctors should be able to prescribe whatever they want in any quantity they deem medically necessary. Remember to provide your insight into whether rising violent crime rates stems from the opioid crisis as asserted in your assigned readings

Security architecture and design 10

As you consider the reputation service and the needs of customers or individual consumers, as well as, perhaps, large organizations that are security conscious like our fictitious enterprise, Digital Diskus, what will be the expectations and requirements of the customers? Will consumers’ needs be different from those of enterprises? Who owns the data that is being served from the reputation service? In addition, what kinds of protections might a customer expect from other customers when accessing reputations?

Answer the questions with an APA-formatted paper (Title page, body and references only). Your response should have a minimum of 500 words. Count the words only in the body of your response, not the references. A table of contents and abstract are not required.

A minimum of two references are required. One reference for the book is acceptable but multiple references are allowed. There should be multiple citations within the body of the paper. Note that an in-text citation includes author’s name, year of publication and the page number where the paraphrased material is located.

Technical writing/ memo assignment/ use correct memo format

In the memo, please detail your feelings about your progress in the course so far. You might think about the following questions to help you organize your thoughts:

Are things going as expected?
In what ways have you surprised yourself or met your own expectations this semester?
What has interested you the most so far?
What do you wish you could learn more about?

You might also comment on the growth you have made outside of the course as a result of your studies. The memo should be at least 3/4 th of a page total, but you can always feel free to write more than that. You do NOT need a Summary section and you don’t even need sections with separate headings unless you want them.

The Critical Role of Street-Level Bureaucrats” examines the role of front-line public employees in the bureaucracy

STREET-LEVEL BUREAUCRACY

Article Summary

“Street-Level Bureaucracy: The Critical Role of Street-Level Bureaucrats” examines the role of front-line public employees in the bureaucracy. Street-level bureaucrats are those individuals who interact directly with citizens. There are many street-level bureaucrats in public service agencies such as welfare offices. In fact, it seems that the poorer people are, the more street-level bureaucrats affect them. Since street-level bureaucrats have such a great deal of interaction with the public, they are often the focus of public controversy. Their decisions appear to be very personal, as they are directed toward people and their attitudes are obvious. Because of this personalization of bureaucracy, street-level bureaucrats also provide hope for citizens to receive fair and effective treatment, as citizens believe they can reason with these individuals, even if the rest of the bureaucracy is out of reach. In reality, street-level bureaucrats are limited to how responsive they may be. Protocol restricts their abilities to treat things on a case-by-case basis.

Key Points

Street-level bureaucrats cause a great deal of public controversy due to debates over their scope and function and the impact they have on people’s lives.
Street-level bureaucrats, such as police officers, teachers, and health workers are familiar to the people they serve, but not necessarily as accountable as people would like them to be.
Street-level bureaucracies directly affect people and change their lives. This provides people with hope that these bureaucrats will help them on an individual basis.
Street-level bureaucrats provide a “visible, accessible, and blamable, collective target.”

the number of people participating in a protest no longer a reliable indica-tor of the strength of a movement?

Complete all the questions after the essay. Make sure to answer in paragraph /essay format.

1. Identify the primary “they say” and “I say” statements in this essay. Why, according to Zeynep Tufekci, is the number of people participating in a protest no longer a reliable indica-tor of the strength of a movement?

2. What role, both short-term and long-term, does the author believe social media plays in the development of a protest movement? How does her discussion of the Women’s March toward the beginning and at the end of this essay fit into her argument?

3. In pargraph 13, Tufekci states, “more than ever before, the significance of a protest depends on what happens after-ward.” Why, in your view, does Tufekci then describe the Tea Party protests of 2009?

4. Tufekci focuses on the ability of technology to bring large groups of people together around a cause, but also argues that protests are not enough. How might danah boyd (pp. 219–29) respond to this claim?

5. Write a Facebook post inviting like-minded people to a protest march (devoted to a cause of your choice). In the post, describe your plan for the march and also for follow-up activities to take place after the march.

Reflect on your personal ethical philosophy as it relates to the field of Applied Behavior Analysis

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is for you to reflect on your personal ethical philosophy as it relates to the field of Applied Behavior Analysis after having completed this Ethics course. After completing the course assignments and readings for all 7 Modules, you will write a brief (1 page) statement, addressing each of the following topic areas:

The importance of ethical guidelines in ABA, specific to the treatment of individuals with developmental disabilities (if you work or plan to work in another field of ABA, that population may be considered in lieu of DD). This statement should reflect the readings and assignments completed for this course and insights gained throughout the course.
Personal experience with ethical issues or concerns. This section should include any instance in which a potential ethical issue arose, professionally, and how it was resolved. If you have not experienced an ethical issue, to your knowledge, you may simply write a statement that, to date, you have not come into contact with any ethical issues. Compared to Part 1, this section should include considerations on how you might handle things differently (or how others could have handled things differently), now that you have increased your awareness of the BACB’s Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts.
How you would handle an ethical issue, should it arise, in your current or future career. This, too, should reflect the BACB Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts specifically. Reference to at least one Ethics Code is required for this item.

Given the personal and individualized nature of this reflection assignment, an example personal statement is not provided. You should thoughtfully reflect on your professional career as well as course readings and viewings and follow the Rubric.
