Have I studied my subject with sufficient care so that I understand what qualities in it caused my initial response, and have I studied it with sufficient care so that I have deepened or otherwise changed that response?

Is the opening paragraph interesting and, by its end, have I focused on the topic?
Do I state my main point (thesis) soon enough--perhaps even in the title--and do I keep it in view throughout my essay?

How to write any essay for the movie miss evers boys

Wewaii [24]

In the film Miss Evers' Boys, several of the now-existing APA guidelines are violated to the extreme. The movie, which illustrates the Tuskegee Study conducted by a group of southern doctors in 1932, tells the story of a group of African-American men who are being unknowingly studied to see if untreated syphilis reacts the same way in African-Americans that it does in white men. At first, treatment is given to them but once the funds for the study are cut and treatment is no longer made available for 14,000 men, the study goes on without them knowing they have stopped receiving medicine. Miss Evers is told that once the government realizes they have continued the study, they will likely re-obtain funds within a year but the study goes on for ten additional years without treatment. The affected men are simply given placebos and then observed. They are also given spinal taps (which are referred to as "back shots" so the men will think they are part of the treatment.) Even though penicillin becomes available, they are refused administration of such because of a rumor that it could kill them and the fact that the doctors do not want the results of the study being tampered with. Most of the men die, and some go crazy; very few are left alive at the end of a ten-year period. The end result is that yes, untreated syphilis affects both African-Americans and whites alike.

Today, the APA has many guidelines which would prevent The Tuskegee Study or anything like it from ever taking place again. In chapter 8 of the APA Ethics Code, 8.07 deals with deception in research, which is mainly what made the Tuskegee Study so unethical.

Part A states that "Psychologists do not conduct a study involving deception unless they have determined that the use of deceptive techniques is justified by the study's significant prospective scientific, educational, or applied value and that effective nondeceptive alternative procedures are not feasible." The doctors conducting the Tuskegee...

"Read the parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32) and answer the following questions:

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

a) The main theme that Jesus is communicating is the importance of seeking forgiveness no matter how heavy or serious the offense may be.

b) The three characters are the father, the elder and and the younger son/the prodigal son.

Explanation:

a) In the parable of "The Prodigal Son", the main theme that Jesus emphasizes and wants to show is not the return of the son nor the celebration of his return. But rather, the focus should be on the importance of asking for forgiveness. The bravery or the courage to seek forgiveness even after committing a serious mistake is the moral of the story.

b) The three main primary characters of the story are the father, and the two sons.

The father epitomizes our loving Father,God who is ever ready to welcome us with open arms irrespective of all the mistakes me make. God is always eager for us to return to him no matter what sins we may have committed. As long as we have the courage to ask for forgiveness, he is always ready to welcome us to his home.

The elder son is an example of a Christian who may be good but still fail to act like a Christian should. His relationship with God may be good and he may do everything that he is told, leading a good Christian life but this dormant life is not what matters. He still has complains whenever someone worse than him is given more importance by the Father, just like the younger son is given importance by the father.

The prodigal on/the younger soon is the example of a lost sinner who, in his greed and stubborn nature, went on his own. Even then, his father did not abandon him, just like God is with us. After making mistakes and living his life, completely forgetting his creator and father, he lived life as if he's invincible. But once things get bad and he lost everything, he came back, regretting his actions and even ready to be treated like a slave as long as he's forgiven.

At times, even I have acted like the prodigal son. Living life on my own terms and not caring about other stuffs, but then there will always come a time when everything will come to an end. So, in the end, there is only God who will be there with us, never judging or complaining.

The story of the Prodigal Son is the perfect example to show the goodness and forgiving nature of our God. He will never hold a grudge against anyone or his actions. as long as we have the courage to ask for forgiveness, he is willing to welcome us back to the fold.
