“Assessing the Needs of the Homeless Population in Dallas, Texas: A Community Needs Assessment” Title: Community Needs Assessment: Addressing a Pressing Issue
Capstone Component 1: Homeless population in Dallas Texas
Community Needs Assessment
For the first of three components, you will choose a local community and conduct an assessment of that community in relation to a social problem. Typically,
this is a community that is somewhat familiar to you and is limited to a city, county, or neighborhood level. For example, if you have identified a problem with
child hunger in your hometown, your assessment should seek to uncover how and why this is happening by conducting a review of the literature and collecting
and analyzing data on your chosen community, while also identifying existing resources designed to combat child hunger.
You will not be conducting a full community needs assessment; rather, you will be identifying a need through a preliminary review of local newspapers or other
relevant sources and talking with other human services professionals who live or work in the area. Your instructor is available to review sources and identify
ways to obtain information and navigate the system. From there, you will research what is out there, what is missing, what others have done to solve the
problem, and so on. This comprehensive evaluation also presents the opportunity for you to engage the community. In your evaluation, you will be required to contact appropriate individuals in the community, either directly or using the internet or the telephone, to interview them about the problem you have selected.
This does not fully meet the “fieldwork” definition, but it will require you to become involved with your selected community in some form and engage providers
and consumers.
Your community needs assessment should include the following sections:
I. Overview of Community and Problem: This section should serve as the foundation for presenting your community assessment and is your opportunity
to comprehensively describe the selected community and identified problem. Overall, it is important to include any information that is pertinent for comprehending the community and problem—it is up to you to establish a robust context for understanding and responding to the community’s need.
II. Gathering Community Information (Methodology): In this section, you will discuss your methodology for collecting the information about your
community and provide a summary of your findings. Your methodology will involve conducting a brief systematic literature review of your chosen community, the problem you identified in Milestone One, and other communities who have dealt with the same issue or problem. In other words, for
this section, discuss how you will collect the information and provide justification for your chosen method(s).
III. Literature Review: Using primary and secondary sources, analyze how the problem is being addressed in other communities. How prevalent is it?
Through a review of the literature, evaluate the social, political, and historical milestones and trends relative to the identified problem. You should also
review interventions that have been attempted in other communities and their success, or lack thereof.
IV. Needs Analysis: This section should include your analysis of the information you gathered on the community. This will provide the conclusions you have drawn from thinking about the findings you described in the preceding section. Based on your assessment of the community and comprehensive analysis
and evaluation of the problem:
• What is the magnitude of the problem in the community?
• What resources and interventions currently exist in the community?
• Provide a description of the impact the current resources and interventions are having on the population. Are they effective? Why or why not?
• What are the obstacles that exist in the community that prevent impacting or addressing the problem?
• Why is this problem one that the community needs to address? What are the demographics of the individuals affected by the problem? Citations/Formatting:
Your community needs assessment should be approximately 5–8 pages in length and should include the necessary elements that one would find in a professional needs assessment. It should include a title page, table of contents, bibliography, and appendices, if applicable. The information should be cited
according to the rules of the latest publication manual of the American Psychological Association (APA). You may include illustrations, photographs, graphs and
charts, and other non-textual materials as needed to support the needs assessment. These can be placed as an appendix at the end of the final paper or, if
appropriate, incorporated in the body of your paper. -
“The Threat of a Fascistic Turn in American Politics: Examining the Possibility of Democracy Being on the Line During the 2024 US Election Cycle”
Since January 6, 2021, the former US President, Donald Trump, has 1) been impeached by Congress; 2) been the subject of a long and critical Congressional investigation; and 3) become embroiled in a number of criminal and civil legal processes. Nonetheless, he is leading in the Republican electoral primary and intends to be the Republican nominee for the presidential election in November, 2024. This has generated mounting suggestions from the Democratic Party and beyond that during the upcoming election, ‘democracy will be on the line’, and that the possibility of a fascistic turn in American politics is now very real. Is democracy itself in peril during the upcoming US election cycle, and would a right-wing victory result introduce fascistic elements into US politics? Why or why not?

Challenging Flawed Information: The Role of Biology in Motivation, Sex, Gender, and Emotion “Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Ethical Considerations in Psychological Research: Exploring the Benefits, Flawed Sources, and Peer-Reviewed Evidence” Exploring the Relationship between Physiology and Behavior: A Review of Psychological Theories and Research Methods
Write a 5–7 page paper that focuses on challenging a flawed source of
information about biopsychology, using evidence from credible and scholarly sources.
Biological systems influence our motivations. Some motivations—like eating—are pretty well understood. Other motivations remain a bit harder
to explain. Understanding the biological aspect of the motivation we have is imperative for practitioners when understanding the behavior of their clients. Biology further contributes to our emotions and health. Think of your own emotional reactions or experiences of stress: what biological actions underlie such emotions or experiences? There are also
biological building blocks behind our understanding of sex and gender. With this assessment, you will explore further one of these areas.
The easy availability of poor quality, outdated, or inaccurate information about how our brains work can make it challenging to find trustworthy information. The objective of this assessment is to practice
finding and using credible evidence to counter flawed sources.
Choose one of the following controversial statements:
Obesity is caused by a lack of willpower.
There are large differences between men and women’s cognitive ability.
Only women should compete in women’s sports.
Topic of your choice related to the content in the chapters on Motivation, Sex, Gender, or Emotion in your course text, Brain and Behavior: An Introduction to Behavioral Neuroscience. Remember that this book is available in the VitalSource bookshelf in the courseroom.
Find one flawed source of information on the Internet. To find a flawed source, look for one with a substantial number of errors.
Read what the textbook says about the controversial statement.
Use the controversial statement mentioned above and use it as your search word/phrase.
If you don’t see a flawed source on the first page of results, skip to the third page of results or further.
Look for sources that are not accurate based on the information in your textbook.
Tips for finding flawed sources:
Scroll through your social media feeds.
Scroll through your results and look for sources that are NOT:
.gov websites.
News or press websites.
Then, find three peer-reviewed journal articles in the Capella library focused on the actions of the brain and body that underlie your topic.
In your paper:
Describe one other field (such as biology or medical sciences) that studies your topic.
Compare this field to psychology.
Contrast this field to psychology.
Explain the benefit of the two fields working together regarding your topic.
Summarize your flawed source, including any evidence provided.
Provide evidence from your three peer-reviewed journal articles.
For each source:
Discuss the methods, participants, and results.
Explain the reliability, validity, and generalizability of the sources.
Discuss whether the research is ethically based on the five APA ethical principles of psychologists. Refer to the specific principles and cite the Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct.
Relate the actions of the mind and body to psychological and physical health.
Describe the actions of the brain and body involved.
Connect these biological actions to your topic.
Describe one of the psychological or behavioral theories that explain your topic.
Describe the value and limitation of using theories to explain behavioral phenomena.
Construct your own explanation to explain the cause of your topic.
Explain your rationale.
Refer back to evidence already presented in your paper.
