Research Paper Assignment Instructions

Overview

The purpose of this assignment is to help you begin to think critically about real-world problems. Being able to dissect the motives of criminals and the policies that we rely on in society is important for the doctoral candidate. This assignment will help you think through all the theories we have discussed in this course in order to select the most valuable and explanatory theories for the selected criminal or policy.

Instructions

In this assignment, you will select only one (1) topic: a serial murderer or a policy.

· If you select a serial murderer, you will write a 3–4-page biography of the individual followed by an 11-14 page analysis of at least 3 theories that might be used to explain why the individual committed the crimes they committed. Each theory must be explained in reference to the individual’s biography and must be greatly detailed.

· If you select a current criminal justice policy (i.e., three-strikes laws), you will write a 3–4-page description of the policy followed by an 11-14 page analysis of at least 3 theories that might have been used as a foundation for that policy. Each theory must be explained in reference to the individual’s biography and must be greatly detailed

In other words, as noted in the constraints above, you will have some limited flexibility in choosing your topic. The research paper should be between 16 and 18 pages, making sure that your content fits in that range.

· The project must use current APA style and appropriate headings are expected.

· The page count does not include the title page, abstract, reference section, or any extra material.

· You must incorporate a Christian Worldview throughout your paper

or
have a specific section of your paper dedicated to Christian Worldview.

· You must use a minimum of 15-20 recent, relevant, and academic (peer-reviewed journals preferred and professional journal allowed if used judiciously) sources with at least 1 source being the Bible and no more than 2 books.

This paper must reflect doctoral-level research and writing style. Please reference the
Research Paper Grading Rubric when creating your research paper.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

Please do not forget to add a bible verse at the end of the paper
