Reflection to Draft #1 of Research Paper


Psychopaths in Our Society 
             Every 14 sec a psychopath is born by Kent A. Kiehl.  During the research paper draft 1 I had some complications in which I spend a lot of time. For example, how to make my question the narrower possible but with giving enough details that people will understand it. Finding that point of where everything is well explain without unrequited details was the most complicated part of all. Reading articles and news data books is also required but from my point of view it was not hard at all. The first draft it was easy to start because I already had my introduction in my proposal. All I had to do was to expand it. This was very simple because I had more than enough topic to mention. A part in which I got stuck was when i explaining quotes, going into details and analyzing. Also at putting the right sentences in, what I mean by this is that when to put a complex or a compound sentences was hard to decide and the transition words I use some were too repetitive. I did learn few things that I didn’t knew about psychopaths.  One of them was that psychopaths and sociopaths are two different terms and that psychopath are not as nice people as I though.
Through my writing I had that doubt of weather I was psychopath or sociopaths because some of the symptoms I had. At the end I read some tests that are required for you to be diagnose with psychopathy. I obviously was not a psychopath or sociopath, but one though that came through my mind was that how when we talk about psychopaths or sociopaths we don’t imagine a woman just males. Even in diseases males and females are not alike, females are less likely to be diagnose with psychopathy. As I continue my writing I was though, how can I apply emotion into this topic, I did try my best but I felt that there was not a lot of emotion about this topic other than we view psychopaths as monsters but at the end they are also humans with a mental disorder that they didn’t decide to become one but were force by their harsh childhood and environment. Applying logic into it was not as hard as I though but I will improve after the peer review work. Over all I did had fun during this research the topic was so interesting from my point of view that the effort and time was worth it.

Reflection to Final Version of Research Paper

Reflection on Smile of Terror             While writing my research paper, I realize that most of the time I use present and past tense in one sentence. I often attend the writing center for this issue. The use of quotes an explaining was not a trouble for me; the library sections help me a lot when I look for articles.  The peer review helps me a lot when It came to reduce extra words. For example, my introduction was one and half page long, but with the help of Nicolas a peer, I was able to omit unnecessary details. Also, he helped me introduce a very hard point between to paragraphs. Overall the research when in the right way I was able to add more emotion and logic into it. I wanted to add more illustrations, but I was unable to find a specific spot where to add them.             In my personal view, the research itself have all needed for a good grade, but th...

Journal Entry #9

My Life My Choice  “Don’t let anyone affect the way you think” those were the word my mom told me when I followed my friends into the wrong path of cutting class. After a few days of though I finally realize how important those words were. To not let yourself become a victim of peer pressure, or to let other influence in your ideologies. After readying some experiments done by the common people I realize how the idea of peer pressure sure was a problem. For example, in the articles student who knew were right in the decision they made, decided to choose the wrong answer to avoid an uncomfortable moment. Also in the video were a man is in the elevator following the other people around him, he follows without questioning.  In the video that we saw during the English101 -53 we see peer pressure play a big role in weather someone makes de right or wrong decision. In fact, it does make a big difference in a person mind, if this type of pressure is put into a big scale it ...

Journal Entry #10

Pay to Live, and Sell to Eat   Human trafficking has been a big and controversial topic. People that donate organs illegally or being force to work as sexual slaves is something that is not tolerated. In my English course we had some reading in were human trafficking was discus. Facts about it were brought up, and most of the people who suffer for human trafficking come from the low-income families and countries. Is an option that people decide to take to gain some money or something they are force to work because they fear of the consequences. Is an easy way for people to found donors when they need it, even though is illegal there are not a lot of law against it when we compare it with war against drugs.             Human trafficking sure is a big problem but some benefits can be found on it. For example, finding donors to save someone’s life, but when it comes to force people to work as sex slaves then it became...
