Activity 10: Bias
Learners are expected to have weekly interaction with the Faculty Mentor as well as with other Learners through class participation in course Discussion assignments. Learners must post to each Discussion assignment at least twice each week as follows:
Principle E
“Psychologists are aware of and respect cultural, individual, and role differences, including those based on age, gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, language, and socioeconomic status, and consider these factors when working with members of such groups. Psychologists try to eliminate the effect on their work of biases based on those factors, and they do not knowingly participate in or condone activities of others based upon such prejudices” (American Psychological Association [APA], 2017).
Do you recognize your own cultural biases? How do you, or do you plan to, address these biases with regard to Principle E?
Posting 1 (300 words)
The first post is a direct response to the topic for the week, written in the Learner’s own words to represent a broad integration of relevant knowledge and understanding of assignment topic. The post must include at least two scholarly sources in response that are not part of the required or recommended reading for the course.
Posting 2 (300 words)
The second post must address the topic collaboratively by commenting on the posting of another Learner(s) and/or mentor.
All posts must be written in graduate level English, and include all in-text citations and references, according to 7th edition APA formatting
