Running Head: SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY 1SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY 2IntroductionSocial psychology is one of the main branches of psychology that deals with how the social relationship determines behavior patterns, actions, feelings, and thinking patterns. It involves individuals’ perception of their lives and relationships towards the entire society (Hogg & Tindale, 2008). Social psychology characteristics play a big role in making choices, what they believe, and how they behave when facing a social problem. Social psychology allows people to have a different opinion, which either positively or negatively affects society.Gordon Allport, a psychologist, uses scientific methods to explain and understand people’s behavior, feelings, and thoughts and how they are influenced by the implied, imagined, and actual presence of other people. Basically, social psychology determines how a person’s behavior is influenced by the social environment around a person when behavior is taking place. Individuals have a dramatic influence on the choices they make. Consider how one would behave when he/she is alone compared to when there are multiple people around. In the workplace, people behave differently when they are alone compared to when an employee or a supervisor is around them.IncidentOne of the major incidents I witnessed and partially experienced concerning social psychology was a murder case of a young lady of about thirty years old in a busy town where I had worked for two months in a big restaurant. One afternoon I noted two unfamiliar gentlemen arguing with the lady on the other side of the road. Since it is a busy town, many people seemed unconcerned with the argument between the two gentlemen and the physically familiar lady. Thus, I became anxious about what was happening.Shortly the gentlemen started assaulting the lady sexually, and up to this time, nobody seemed concerned with the situation. After sexual harassment, one of the two gentlemen took a knife from his pocket and stabbed the lady several times. During the struggle with the assailant, the lady screamed, “Please help me! He stabbed me! On my God!” but no person responded to assist the lady.As the struggle continued, the lady was able to break free from the assailants, but the gentlemen followed the lady, caught her, and stabbed the lady several more times. I empathized with the lady and tried to rescue her, I moved with speed at the scene, but one angry assailant took an object from the ground and threw to me. Although the object did not strike me, a piece of fiber entered between my eye and my contact lens. It was a painful experience that made me retreat from the crime scene. Finally, I managed to pull off the fiber and take my lens out. It was a sense of relief on my side, and before I realized it, the two gentle had taken off, and the lady was confirmed dead.Emotions based on chapter 6Based on social psychology, emotion pervades professional and social lives. It also influences how people behave and think, profoundly determines our social and relationship interactions. A few decades ago, emotions were conceptualized and studied as individual phenomenal, where researchers focused mostly on expressive and cognitive components based on neurological and physiological processes underlying emotion reactions.Currently, due to many types of research on social psychology through the increase in scholarly awareness, it is now clear that emotions are inherently social components that are elicited by individuals and expressed to other individuals with the intention influence, regulate a social situation and adhere to the social norms that govern people in a society (Parkinson & Manstead, 2015). My decision to assist the lady was out of emotion after realizing the harassment towards the lady was not according to the norms that govern people in any society. Out of emotion, I did not realize how dangerous those assailants were, considering they were two and well equipped with weapons. Through emotions, people engage in empirically impossible situations to solve, so such people should not be condemned.Aggression based on chapter 11In social psychology, aggression is a term used to describe people who yell on dare need to be assisted. People may cut other individuals’ cars in traffic; some may also smash their fists out of anger (Archer & Coyne, 2005). Based on recent researches conducted on social psychologies is that aggression is unacceptable behavior that is intended to harm a person or a group of people who does not wish to be injured or harmed, according to Richardson and Baron in 1994.There are some actions that, although they cause harm or injuries, are not considered aggression. For instance, during a football game, a player may accidentally break another player’s arm from the opponent team. Still, because the injury or harm was not intentional, the act is not referred to as aggression. Additional, not all intentional behavior that causes harm and hurts others is referred to as aggressive behavior. For instance, a dentist giving a patient a painful injection to prevent further pain on a patient’s tooth is not considered aggression.The scenario made me understand aggression is violence, which is prosecutable in the judicial system. The two gentlemen committed violence based on the court system and committed aggression based on social psychology perception. Additionally, a person who threw an object at me, intending to harm me, also committed aggression.Attitude based on chapter 7In social psychology is an emotional, mental, and psychological construct acquired through experiences. There is a set of behavior, believes, and emotions towards a scenario event or a person. Attitudes are a result of upbringing experiences, and although they are enduring can also change over time. Attitude ranges from extremely positive to extremely negative.In my case, through social psychology based on crowd attitude, individuals in the less populated environment are likely to assist during an emergency than individuals in a crowd. When people are many, they fail to understand one another’s need due to mob psychology attitude. In a crowd, individuals always take personal responsibility is solving a crisis; this gives criminals an added advantage to commit a crime and easily escape. Through my social psychology study, I understand how the lady did not get assistance despite her request o be helped.Altruism based on chapter 14According to social psychology, altruism is the unselfish concern for other individuals, particularly individuals with a dare need. Altruism is basically the desire to assist without been obliged to religious, loyalty, or duty reasons. The process involves just acting out of concern for other people (Wagner & Rush, 2000). In most cases, the act of altruism jeopardizes the lives of those who try to rescue other people from danger. Such acts are often acted unselfishly, and no expectations of rewards at the end.Through social psychology, I understood my act of attempting to assist the lady from the malicious gentlemen was an act of altruism. The process jeopardizes my health because I was almost losing my eye. I was comfortable assisting an individual, although she was not my friend. Altruism is true selflessness with no desire or expectation for personal gain.ConclusionIn conclusion, studying social psychology enlightened individuals in building a productive relationship among people in society. Studying more about people’s lives from different ethnicities, their attributes, and how their behavior is formed allows people to appreciate how relationships among individuals influence individual functioning.

Parasitic DiseaseBilharzia is a disease that is caused by parasitic worms. The parasites that usually cause bilharzia live in particular types of freshwater snails. The major challenge that is being experienced in the prevention of the disease is the lack of a vaccine (Farley, 2017). Although there is no vaccine for bilharzia, this disease is addressed in public health through which people are advised to take some preventive measures. These preventive measures include avoiding swimming in fresh water when in countries in which schistosomiasis occurs and drinking safe water. However, swimming in the ocean and in chlorinated swimming pools is considered to be safe.Infectious DiseaseInfluenza is an infectious disease that attacks a person’s respiratory system including the nose lungs and throat. This disease represents a major burden for public health because it affects all age groups with different prognoses. The major challenge that is faced in trying to prevent influenza is that the immunity that is provided from the vaccines usually wanes with the virus mutation over time which requires people to be vaccinated every year. The immunization plans of influenza need to be updated continuously in order to reduce the severe and fatal cases caused by this disease (Paules, et al., 2018). The public health sector is trying to address the challenge by ensuring people acquire an every year seasonal vaccine that provides protection from the various types of influenza.Antibiotic ResistanceOne of the antibiotic resistance situations is bacteria resistance to antibiotics. In this situation, bacteria develop resistance to antibiotics that were once treated by those antibiotics (Frieri, Kumar, & Boutin, 2017). These bacteria cause severe diseases which have made resistance to antibiotics to become a major public health issue. However, there are some ways in which people are trying to prevent antibiotic resistance for instance by practicing good hygiene, completing the entire course of any prescribed antibiotic, and minimizing unnecessary prescribing and overprescribing.

Cybercrime, Cyber Forensics, and the InternetStudent’s NameInstitutional AffiliationCourse CodeInstructor’s NameDateCybercrime, Cyber Forensics, and the InternetCybercrime refers to any illegal or criminal activities that entail the use of a computer, network, or networked device. These illegal activities are either carried out to generate profit or to generate to directly disable or damage them by spreading malware or any other illegal materials. Cyber forensics also referred to as computer forensics are techniques used for investigation and analysis to collect and preserve evidence in computers in a suitable method for presentation in a court of law. Cybercrime is often committed through the internet. The internet is a wide network that enables computer networks all over the world to efficiently communicate with each other. Criminals involved in these unlawful behaviors are referred to as hackers. Cybercrimes have different categories. Some of the categories defined as cybercrimes include online predatory crimes, and the rampant unauthorized access to computers.Cyber-terrorism is also a major source of concern and a serious crime in the internet platform.The history of cybercrime is closely related to the evolution of the internet. Cybercrimes started as a simple attempt to steal information from local networks. The evolution of the internet resulted in more established and complex hacking trends. During the late ’80s cybercrime was established where the criminals attempted to hack into email accounts by allowing hosts of scams or malware delivered into individuals’ inboxes. With the advancement of web browsers in the 1990s, the next wave in cybercrime history occurred. There were many more options at the time, many more than recent times, and almost all were likely to get viruses which are acquired from internet connections as questionable sites were visited. The introduction of social media sited catalyzed the growth of cybercrime in the early 2000s. The most recent wave of cybercrime is the development of a worldwide criminal organization worth nearly a half-trillion dollars per year. These cybercriminals work in gangs, using well-developed techniques, and target every internet user (MUJOVI?, 2020).Cyber forensics was later labeled as digital forensics where the first technicians in the late 1990s were law enforcement officers and began working in the FBI Computer Analysis and Response Team. The required individuals in the law enforcement agencies together with specialists from outside, recognized that cyber forensics, necessary standard techniques, rules and regulations, and procedures. These formal structures were inexistence apart from informal guidelines and were needed to be developed immediatelyData is regarded as a commodity by legal and illegal actors, online and offline. As a result, cybercriminals aim for the online stored data. The commission of many cybercrimes perceive data as a fundamental factor since it is not properly protected making it an easy target to allow the criminals to obtain it illegally. Breaching of data cases occurred as a result of poor system and data security, lost encrypted flash drives and other storage devices, unauthorized database access or exceeding authorized database access, and unintentional disclosure or publication of important data (Kiener Manu, 2019).Cyber forensics is notably an emerging platform of information security. In today’s crime scenes, there are a plethora of possibilities aside from the ordinary investigations of physical fingerprints or footprints and blood splatter analysis. In precise terms, as technology advances, cybercrime has become a major issue. Cybercriminals are often difficult to trail since they leave few or no physical traces (Rahaman, 2019). Subsequently, investigators are dependent on cyber forensics to come up with a remedy to these cybercrimes. A cyber forensic experts have the mandate to analyze the gathered data and present the findings to the appropriate authorities.Legal frameworks, such as legislation and regulations, authorize the nation to establish the necessary response mechanisms for cybercrime investigation and prosecution. The primary goal is to have adequate legislation to deal with the evolving nature of cybercrime. Every county has its legal system which has a great impact the development of criminal law on cybercrime. The systems include civil law, common law, legal pluralism, religious law, and customary law (Kiener Manu, 2019). Every state has its way to penalize different types of behavior by defining several elements of the crime. On the other hand, states penalize similar behaviors, but the laws may have dissimilar opinions as to what mental state renders them blameworthy for the actions (Kiener Manu, 2019).A single successful cyber-attack often has server consequences, including financial losses, and theft of intellectual property (IP). The annual adverse pecuniary consequences of cybercrime on the community and state government is often estimated to be in billions. Cyber criminals have various ways of using technology in their illegal activities. (Kiener Manu, 2019). Scammers and other miscreants consider the Internet as a great tool because it allows them to conduct their business while remaining incognito while they are online. These illegal activities has an impact on society in a several ways, online and offline such as security costs, monetary losses, and piracy.Cybercriminals take full advantage of the Internet’s incognito nature, and interconnectedness, and secrecy hence uses these loopholes to attack the foundations of the modern information community (MUJOVI?, 2020). Computer viruses, Botnets, cyberbullying, malware, intentional cyber stalking, service attacks denial, cyberterrorism, identity theft, malware, and spam are all examples of cybercrime. Law enforcement have a cumbersome work in putting up with these law breakers, who cost the worldwide economy financial instability. Police force are attempting to implement a similar use of the same tools that cybercriminals employ when committing crimes to prevent them and bring the perpetrators to justice.

This end-of-term written assignment (600 – 800 words, typewritten) will be an examination and analysis of a selected film clip, and the role of music—and more broadly, the role of sound—within that clip, as it interacts with the film’s visual track. Each student will select a clip between one and three minutes in length (with perhaps some flexibility in length, one way or the other, depending on the clip). A “first-come, first-claimed” set of sign-up boards is now available. Each student must select a film clip (by title and times) that has not already been claimed. An extensive list of films is provided (below) from which to select a clip.Your paper provides an opportunity to apply the O.A.R.S model of examination (Observation, Analysis, Reflection, Synthesis), which has been practiced in the discussion boards, and which has been repeatedly modeled in the lessons of this course. The key is to focus, and to examine in detail.Here are some more tips about writing your paper: You can assume the reader has seen the film, but you still want to orient your reader with a brief introduction of your topic. Similarly, at the end of your paper, you want a conclusion that provides insight and synthesis–stating the sorts of things that come from reflecting on the observations and analysis that make up the “meat” of your paper.Peruse the film list, and select a film from the list and identify a clip between 1 and 3 minutes in length that will be the subject of your paper. It’s possible that the clip could be shorter or longer—but check with your instructor about any exceptions.Some examples of clips that have already been “claimed” (by virtue of their having been the subject of examination within our lessons) provide a model for your sign-up “posts.”
