Begin an annotated bibliography of the articles that you are reviewing. Note all the important sections of the article, as illustrated in the sample above. Also, note not only the articles that you plan to use, but also any article that you read. Be sure to note at the end of the article how useful the article may be for your literature review.

Tell us about your assignment and we will find the best writer for your project.
Get Help Now!Include the five articles you reviewed in Week 3 and find an additional ten so that there is a total of 15 articles in this version of your Annotated Bibliography. Add a one-page paper that reflects your experiences with note-taking and research tools. Identify those that include features you would like to use and which one, if any, you have adopted for your own use.
Please note that the same rules for a citation that apply to other documents (such as proper paraphrasing and the use of quotation marks where necessary) apply to annotated bibliographies as well. It is not acceptable to cut and paste from the abstract or the body of an article. Rather, you are expected to read the article completely and appropriately paraphrase the necessary material. For those few situations where paraphrasing is not acceptable, then the material that has not been paraphrased needs to be placed in quotation marks. Please refer to the Northcentral University Integrity Policy and tutorial for more information on this.
Length: at least 15 research articles
Your
annotated bibliography should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of
the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new
thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response
should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.

Topic
When
I started looking for the perfect topic for my research review, I knew
that I wanted something that I could tie my prior military experience
into. When I went into the American Psychological Association website
and into the Topics section, I found the topic labeled “Law and
Psychology.” After searching through this topic and into other “tags”
within this topic, I have decided that I would like my topic to be
Forensic Psychology in Military Courts.
Forensic Psychology in Military Courts
There
are three topics that I think should be covered with this topic: Key
differences in civilian and military legal parameters in conducting
evaluations, procedures for effectively performing, consulting, and
testifying about evaluation results at court-martials, and ethical
concerns in the delivery of forensic services. I want to provide a
comprehensive review of the many valuable roles that psychologists can
play in courts-martial and how they can collaborate with military
attorneys to make effective trial teams. Even though psychologists are
becoming increasingly important in military trials, many are unfamiliar
with the unique nature of this system. Likewise, lawyers often do not
know how to effectively utilize psychologists’ expertise.

Response Essay
Picture
yourself out running errands, on your way home from work or school, and
you’re hungry, you are tired, you don’t want to go home and cook, so
you decide to stop and get fast food. We all have found ourselves in
this same situation many times a week, if not daily. This scenario has
led to a growing epidemic of overweight persons in our society. This is
what David Zinczenko explains in his essay, “Don’t Blame the Eater.” It
is a no holds barred look at how the fast food industry has led to the
overwhelming rate of obesity in our society.
Zinczenko finds himself
in this same situation that many people do—whether young or old, single
or family. They are faced with an easy alternative to cooking, and an
easy cheap meal. Zinczenko was a teenager eating fast food daily, even
multiple times a day… “Lunch and dinner, for me, was a daily choice
between McDonald’s, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken, or Pizza Hut.”
(1) Eating fast food for almost every meal caused Zinczenko to gain a
large amount of weight… “By age 15, I had packed 212 pounds of torpid
teenage tallow on my once lanky 5-foot-10 frame.” (2) Zinczenko’s saving
grace was the fact that while in college, he has joined the Navy
Reserves and had learned to properly manage his diet and exercise. Other
teenagers are not as lucky and are likely to face a life time of weight
issues and health issues related to being overweight.
While it may
not be an absolute fact that the health-related issues teenagers are
facing are related directly to their eating of fast food, the theory
does stand to reason that it is a possibility due to the circumstantial
evidence. According to Zinczenko, “Before 1994, diabetes in children was
generally caused by a genetic disorder—only about 5 percent of
childhood cases were obesity-related, or Type 2, diabetes. Today,
according to the National Institutes of Health, Type 2 diabetes accounts
for at least 30 percent of all new childhood cases of diabetes in this
country.” (4) Zinczenko continues with his theory that due to the lack
of healthier food options at fast food restaurants, and the lack of
accurate nutritional labeling of these foods, people are struggling with
making informative decisions while trying to eat fast food.
The
restaurant industry is marketing to children and making these fast food
meals look appealing compared to the healthier food options. Then they
are also hiking the prices of healthier items like salads, fruits, etc.,
and also making their food nutrition labels to be a bit misleading.
Zinczenko uses and example of a chicken salad… “one company’s Web site
lists its chicken salad as containing 150 calories; the almonds and
noodles that come with it (an additional 190 calories) are listed
separately. Add a serving of the 280-calorie dressing, and you’ve got a
healthy lunch alternative that comes in at 620 calories.” (5) Now while
this may seem like a healthy alternative to a burger and fries, this is
where the misleading labels change this entire scenario. “Read the small
print on the back of the dressing packet and you’ll realize it actually
contains 2.5 servings. If you pour what you’ve been served, you’re
suddenly up around 1,040 calories, which is half of the government’s
recommended daily calorie intake. And that doesn’t take into account
that 450-calorie super-size Coke.” (6) The restaurant industry takes
advantage of this misconceptions, charges you more for the “healthy”
alternative, and your actually just as bad off as if you had eaten the
burger and fries.
I completely understand Zinczenko’s point of view
on this out of control phenomenon. I know there have been many times
where I have been short on time, or just exhausted, and have chosen to
pick up fast food on the way home for family. I have been through those
time where I can tell I have put on a few pounds from eating out too
much and making the wrong food choices. The fast food industry makes it
easy, this is the sad reality we face. They are guilty of their
advertising tactics being aimed at children and those families short on
time. There are starting to feel a bit of pushback from the government
and from individuals who are choosing to take legal action toward their
unscrupulous advertising tactics.
Is it right to blame the fast food
industry for these overweight people and health problems our society is
facing? Maybe yes, maybe no. I do feel that they are aware that their
practices are wrong, but some of the blame does have to fall on the
individual who is purchasing and eating the food. It is only a matter of
time until we see where the legal system will draw the proverbial line
of blame, until then, we can only educate our children and families on
what healthy choices they need to make for a healthier future.
