Self in a Multicultural Society
Instructions. You will need the textbook for this assignment. Read Chapter 10 and complete the following questions.
On the section “Cross-Cultural Variation” (pp. 176-177), the authors explain that “cultural codes of sexual expression dictate whether an act is legal, normal, deviant, or pathological.”
1. Choose one of the countries or cultures included in that section and describe their sexual norms and customs (at least 8 sentences)
One of the countries included in the section is the United States. As with the other countries that have been mentioned, the U.S. has its own sexual norms and customs. It is important to note that there are clear legal provisions that govern some aspects of sexual relations in America. For instance, as it has been pointed out in the text, “both sibling incest and parent-child incest are illegal” in the United States (176). This essentially……

Plagiarism And Academic Accountability
...Sentencing Academic Accountability
Define academic voice and plagiarism.
Academic voice is a form of communication that uses a formal tone with clarity, professionalism, and straightforwardness. At its core are declarative statements, avoidance of causal language, and authoritative register (Dirgeyasa & Hum, 2017).
Plagiarism is the representation of another author’s work or ideas as own and without full acknowledgment.
Apply your knowledge of academic voice and plagiarism to the rewritten passage, locating and identifying errors.
“The correlational method can be very useful, but it must be used with caution.” - (this direct quote is done well, but there is no acknowledged through in-text citation, thus plagiarism). If knowledge of one variable (height) helps predict another (weight), does that mean that one causes the other? Not necessarily. It is possible that the primary variable caused the secondary, or that the secondary variable caused the primary, or that some additional variable caused both variables.……

The Juvenile Justice System
… greater effectiveness rate than punitive justice at rehabilitating people. The article’s main strength is when it reveals that “victims report greater satisfaction when sentencing is diverted from the traditional justice system to restorative sentencing” (p. 2349). In other words, victims prefer to see juvenile offenders reform rather than simply be punished: “victims reported higher perceptions of fairness ……

Harpers Ferry Raid
...Sentencing Introduction
The issue of abolitionism came to a head with John Brown’s raid on Harpers Ferry in 1859. Brown’s intention was to instigate an armed slave rebellion (Horwitz). Brown and nearly two dozen other men took over a U.S. arsenal at Harpers Ferry in Virginia—but instead of achieving the goal of a slave revolt, the men were caught in a stand-off with U.S. Marines from October 16th to the 18th. Robert E. Lee, ironically, was the commander in charge of retaking the arsenal; Lee would be the commander of the Southern Army just a year and a half later. Other future Confederates assisting in the recapturing of Harpers Ferry from the insurrectionist Brown and his men were Stonewall Jackson and J. E. B. Stuart (Horwitz). This paper will discuss the raid, explain what happened and why, and what the fallout was.
