Perspectives on the interaction of personality and culture

Write a 1-2 page paper reflecting on a current event in the media (an event that occurred sometime within the past months) demonstrating elements of this week’s reading. (Examples that easily come to mind include a story on cultural conflict or an example of two previously opposing groups working with one another.) Analyze the event based on concepts from your reading. How might a further understanding of the concepts from this week provide deeper insights into the Hot Topic? Excellent papers will fully meet the criteria below: • Identify a specific “Hot Topic” describing the event, providing a citation/link to the news story inspiring the paper. • Analyze the event through the various perspectives on the interaction of personality and culture; religion; love, etc. • Provide perspective and insights to further understand the issues using psychological principles as the primary foundation of the analysis. • Cite specific sources, research, concepts, etc. from the readings of Week Seven. • Contain a well-developed introduction, body, and conclusion as the structure of the paper. • Are grammatically and mechanically sound, as well as, free of spelling errors; apply content from the reading; cites sources using APA style.
