Stratification

write 300–500 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments.There are several types of stratification. Among the most common are stratification by gender, race, ethnicity, age, and social class.

It can be difficult to be empathetic until walking in someone else’s shoes. This week, you will do just that. Assume the role of someone who is different from you in terms of race, gender, ethnicity, age, or social class, and discuss how this person is affected by stratification.

Focus your discussion on the following:

Explain the person you are describing (their age, race, gender, and so on).

Discuss what their daily life is like, from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed.

What are their thoughts and behaviors? Discuss why they may have these thoughts and behaviors.

Discuss how others may view them or treat them and why.

Discuss how this person may be stereotyped and what aspects may be true and untrue.

Explain how walking in the shoes of someone else may help others to become more understanding and empathetic. Make sure to tie this back to sociology.

Ethics

Ethics is an important part of every research project. Adherence to ethical guidelines helps researchers protect both themselves and participants. Reflect on the study you proposed in Discussion 1 this week. Review the reading from your course textbook as well as the Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct and Institutional Review Boards Frequently Asked Questions: Information Sheet articles.  Select one ethical guideline from these sources that relates to your study proposal from Discussion 1.  Briefly describe the guideline and explain how you would address its specifications in your study.  Provide an example and be as specific as possible as you explain.
The class’ selections should vary (please do not all pick the same guideline) and your selection must relate to your specific topic from Discussion 1.  Your initial post must be a minimum of 200 words and utilize at least one scholarly source (e.g., the course textbook, a peer-reviewed article from the Ashford University Library, or a professional web source), cited according to APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
guided Response: Respond to at least two of your classmates who chose a different ethical guideline than you. Did they adequately describe how they would address the topic? Why or why not? Reinforce your thoughts regarding their description with a reference from the literature that supports your claim.

Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.

Ageism

The purpose of this discussion is to give you the opportunity to apply ethical theories to the complex issue of ageism in the workplace, particularly in the area of employment. In the modern workplace there appear to be the following three key issues that address ageism in employment, some of which have been exacerbated by recent economic issues and an aging population:

  • Older job seekers fight ageism as a barrier to      re-employment.
  • Younger job seekers have trouble obtaining career      entry.
  • Evidence in many countries highlights that older worker      employment and youth employment are not connected in any way.

This last point is generally known in economics as the “Lump of Labor Fallacy,” which challenges the view that if older workers are employed in a tight labor market, then they must be occupying the jobs of the country’s youth. Prepare and post a response to the following prompt:
Using at least one ethical perspective or theory from the text and one item of scholarly evidence, present an argument to a group of younger workers (regarding older worker and youth employment) in which you refute the notion that older workers take employment from the young.
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly sources, and properly cite any references in APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.
