Thus, in this activity, you will apply ethical considerations by relating course content to a realistic scenario.

First, locate a scholarly article in the Ashford Library. This source can be on any topic you choose. You may wish to utilize recommended articles for this course, or you may instead locate an article that includes information that aligns with your own interests.
Next, copy and paste either the abstract or one paragraph from the body of your selected article into your paper with the heading â€œOriginal Workâ€.
Then, write a paragraph in which you paraphrase under the heading â€œParaphrased Paragraphâ€.
- Be sure to avoid the common mistakes outlined by Turnitin.
- Apply in-text citations appropriately.
- Remember to include a separate reference page with the full citation information for your selected article, formatted according to APA guidelines.
Then, reflect on this topic using your own academic voice and applying in-text citations. Relate your thoughts under the heading â€œReflectionâ€. In your reflection (4-5 paragraphs), address the following:
Illustrate how plagiarism, even when unattended, violates the ethical responsibility of a psychology student or professional.
- Predict potential consequences to other persons (e.g., research participants, patients, clients, students, etc.) when this violation occurs.
- Apply this knowledge to your own personal area of interest as identified in the Introduction Discussion. What additional ethical concerns are or will be especially relevant to you given your aspirations?
