Part I
Create a Theory of Developmental Psychology

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please review the required chapters from the Swanson and Chermack (2013) e-book as well as the American Psychological Association (2010) and Baltes (1987) articles for this week.

For your initial post, you will utilize information provided in the required readings and your own research to create your own developmental theory on bullying. A psychological theory is a framework for understanding a particular phenomenon related to human behavior (in this case, bullying) that is developed from a hypothesis and extensive research on that phenomenon. For the purpose of creating your theory, you may address bullying in a broad sense, or choose an aspect of bullying (e.g., cyber-bullying, school bullying, sibling bullying) to address theoretically.

Begin by researching peer-reviewed articles on bullying in the Ashford University Library that were published within the last 10 years. Look for patterns in the data presented in the articles and compile at least three peer-reviewed articles with similar findings on which to build your theory.

•Create a purpose statement that defines the phenomenon, identifies the need for better understanding of this issue, and explains human development in the context of bullying trends.

•Apply the findings within your chosen developmental research articles to the creation of your own research questions and create a hypothesis on bullying behaviors.

•Evaluate the unique scholarly perspectives presented in your research and explain how they support your hypothesis on bullying.

•After creating your hypothesis, you will devise an experiment to test it. Although you will not actually complete the experiment, describe it in detail including the sample, independent and dependent variables, materials needed, procedure, and expected outcomes.

•Analyze any ethical considerations which might affect the viability of your experiment and describe how you would address any ethical concerns regarding the use of your experiment.

•Based on the information you have collected to create your research questions and hypotheses, as well as the expected outcome(s) of your experiment, integrate this evidence into a theory by suggesting a framework for how we should understand bullying according to you, the expert.

•Choose an appropriate name for your theory and generate at least two phrases of terminology to explain the phenomenon in your own words.

•Explain how your theory addresses the hypothesis and expected outcomes of your experiment.

•Apply your developmental theory and associated terminology as “scholarly support” to propose solutions for bullying within your provided framework

Part II Program Proposal

Beginning the Proposal Process

Choose an area of interest. Students will choose a general track and define a specific issue within the track that is of interest to them and presents a contemporary problem to be solved. Please see the Program Proposal Tracks and Topics in Developmental Psychology document to view the tracks (Community, Clinical/Counseling, and Education) and suggested issues within each track for the proposal. Once the track and issue have been chosen, specific criteria will need to be identified.

Identify the target population. Regardless of the track and issue chosen, a target population must be identified for the proposal. Identify the target population associated with the chosen issue. Within the target population, choose the developmental stage that will act as the focus for the proposal. Many programs may directly and/or indirectly influence people in different stages; however, it is important to select the stage that is most applicable to the specific program being proposed. For example, in a program for adults who are caring for their elderly parents, the focus is on the adults (likely in middle adulthood) so a middle adulthood focus would be most appropriate for that program.

Identify the geographic location where the program will be deployed. Programming will be directly influenced by the location in which it will take place. For example, a child safety program in a rural farming community will likely have different objectives and needs than a child safety program in a large metropolitan city.

Research a minimum of five peer-reviewed articles on the chosen issue in the Ashford University Library. All sources utilized for the Program Proposal must have been published within the last 10 years.

Creating the Program Proposal

Program proposals take on many forms and styles. Creativity is encouraged because it not only tests the boundaries of what is possible for solutions to various issues, but also typically increases the chances for funding. Regardless of the issue being addressed, the Program Proposal must incorporate the following headings (noted in bold) and include the supporting information that is detailed beneath each heading.

Proposal Summary

Under this heading, provide a summary paragraph that presents the program, its objectives, and how the program will address an area of need in the identified geographic location and issue of interest.
•Identify the target population and developmental stage of the population, as well as the intended program track. (These will be elaborated upon further in the Program Narrative and Procedures section of the proposal.)

•Identify the geographic location for the program and the specific needs within that location. (These will be elaborated upon further in the Program Narrative and Procedures section of the proposal.)

•Create a purpose statement that applies developmental theory and research to policy and community.

•Conclude with a purpose statement in which the need for the program as well as the alignments with the support and findings are stated. (These will be elaborated upon in the Background section of the proposal.)

Organization Description and Qualifications

Under this heading, act as an individual representative and identify the community agency submitting this proposal.
•Explain what qualifies the agency to create this specific program (education, experience, history, etc.).

•Describe how the agency plans to promote the success of this program and what resources the agency has access to or can provide.

While this community agency will be a construct rather than a true community agency, the information and attributes described must align with the qualifications expected of a true agency of that nature and the qualifications should support the goals of the proposal.

Background

Under this heading, explain human development in the context of both historical and current trends by presenting a brief summary of the relevant research published within the last 10 years. Within the summary:
•Identify other active programs in the geographic area to eliminate duplication of current programs.

•Evaluate the unique scholarly perspectives and research in the field of developmental psychology as they relate to the specific program being proposed.

•Address how the scholarly information collected illustrates a clear need for this program.

Program Narrative and Procedures

Under this heading, describe the program in detail. Include the overall vision, the intended target population, and geographical location, and specify how this program will be introduced to the community.
•Provide a step-by-step outline of what will be implemented and detail how each step of the outline will be accomplished.

◦Within the outline, analyze any ethical considerations for the deployment of the program using elements of developmental psychology research and practice to support the suggested implementation.

Program Timeline and Cost/Benefit Assessment

Under this heading, provide a visual timeline for implementation of the program and for meeting expected milestones. How long will planning, preparation, hiring, and commencement of the program take? Once active, how long is the program expected to run, and/or how often?
•Address how the benefits to the target population and organization(s) will outweigh any potential costs to create and implement this program.

•Assess how time, employee experience, volunteer base, and space utilization will figure into the cost/benefit analysis.

Program Evaluation and Expected Outcomes

Under this heading, evaluate the proposal and describe potential outcomes considering what might happen if the program exceeds expectations, meets expectations, or does not meet expectations.
•Address accountability measures including performance reviews and milestones to be met.

•Describe how this program will meet accreditation standards in the short and/or long term.

Attention Students: The Masters of Arts in Psychology program is utilizing the Pathbrite portfolio tool as a repository for student scholarly work in the form of signature assignments completed within the program. After receiving feedback for this Program Proposal, please implement any changes recommended by the instructor, visit the Pathbrite website and upload the revised Program Proposal to the portfolio. (Use the Pathbrite Quick-Start Guide to create an account if you do not already have one.) The upload of signature assignments will take place after completing each course. Remember to upload revised signature assignments throughout the program as the portfolio and its contents will be used in other courses and may be used by you as a professional resource tool upon graduation from the program. The Pathbrite website also provides information and further instructions on using this portfolio tool.

Paper revisits the topic of your presentation. Unlike the presentation that aimed to remain neutral on a bioethics issue, in this paper you will take a side. You’ll want to present reasons for a position – namely, provide an argument. In short, write a paper that (1) identifies your main thesis or conclusion (2) outlines key reasons that support your position, (3) state reasonable considerations that would seem to disfavor your position as well as (4) your reasons to discount what is stated in (3).
The paper should be sufficiently narrow compared to the presentation. Importantly, depending on your topic, the paper should focus on bioethics within the profession as opposed to bioethics for society at large or the layperson.

(( focus on the two solution provided at the end of the attached document and narrow each one you make an argument about which one of the solution has a positive effects and provide a reasonable reasons for each one based on ((ethical principle)).
1. This is a 4 page paper with standard formatting (1” margins, 12 pt font). Title page (include name, class # and section #, topic of paper) and bibliography do not count toward the 4 pages.
2. A minimum of four reliable sources with bibliography following the Chicago Manual of Style. Two of the sources must be reliable journal articles. [note, most web-based sources are actually PRINT sources, as the material has been printed and so must be cited as a print source!]. Dictionaries, your textbook, Wikipedia, web encyclopedias, blogs, social media and the like, will not be counted toward the minimum.
