Title: “Behavioral Insights for Improving Voter Turnout in Local Elections” Introduction: In this proposal, I will be working with a local government in the United States, specifically the city of Boston. The city government has approached me to
For this final assignment, pretend you have been hired by a governance organization – your client can be the federal government, a foreign government, a state or city government, a corporate or NGO board of directors, even a student government. They want your behavioral insights to help them address some issue – it can be a problem they have, an attempt to make improvements somewhere, or an enhancement in the lives of people whom their policies or projects affect.
Please explain who it is you are working for/with and why they might have approached you. Please explain what the problem is, and who might be affected (it is sometimes easier to focus on a specific group rather than the entire population). As relevant, please identify, concretely, which specific judgments, decisions, or behaviors you are addressing, and what the main bottlenecks are, currently. Please explain, concretely, how your insights and ideas could make a difference.
Please refer to what you’ve learned in the course, and feel welcome to expand with additional relevant research findings and references, in your proposal for a behaviorally informed approach / agenda / solution.
Please refer to at least 5 concepts from our course that you think are relevant and may prove useful to your proposed approach. Explain carefully what concepts and ideas you are using, and why you think they are relevant and might help. Please use these judiciously, and explain – merely making mention of terms is not helpful.
Your proposal can include novel ideas and interventions, as well as revisions of actual, existing policies that, in your view, might be lacking from a behavioral perspective. You are encouraged to be creative and original. At the same time, you should be sensitive to whether your proposals, as far as you can tell, are viable from a legal / ethical / logistical perspective (For example: Is local government allowed to impose a particular restriction? Are there enough facilities to allow a proposed new intervention? Are these interventions ethical?) Of course, we do not expect you to be an expert on all ethical, legal, and logistical matters – just be sensitive to, and mention, where certain ethical / legal / logistical challenges may need to be addressed to make the proposal feasible.
Your paper should be roughly 5-7 pages (double spaced). Naturally, a project like this does not have “right” or “wrong” answers. We are looking for behavioral insights and creativity, and effective research and argumentation relying on the rich material you’ve encountered throughout the semester. Please submit a well-crafted and carefully argued document. YOU MUST BE ABLE TO ACCESS Thaler, Richard, and Cass Sunstein. Chapters 4-8, Nudge: The Final Edition. 2021. Please mostly refer to this. -
Title: Culturally-Neutral Assessment: An Ethical Imperative in Employee Selection
An ethical decision-making model is a tool that can be used by professionals in psychology to help develop the ability to think through an ethical dilemma and arrive at a responsible and ethical decision. This assignment assesses your application of ethical decision-making by requiring critical thinking and analysis through your recommendations to an ethical dilemma.
Read the following scenario:
You work for a large corporation in human resources as a psychologist. In that capacity, it is your job to select and administer psychological tests that measure intelligence and cognitive ability as part of the employee selection process. The company has been hiring engineers and you notice that in the next group of prospects, many are recent immigrants from Pakistan, Korea, and India. You realize that the standardized tests you have been using do not seem to be culture-neutral and are biased toward native English speakers.
Develop an 8- to 10-slide Microsoft PowerPoint® presentation to corporate managers with detailed speaker notes on the selection process of a culture-neutral assessment. The cover and reference page is NOT counted.
Address the following questions or objectives:
Should you use different tests that are less culture-bound?
How would you select assessments that are culture-neutral?
What criteria would you use? What, if any, ethical issues are involved?
How and why would using culturally biased tests be an ethical issue here?
What does the APA Ethics Code say about the importance of culture-neutral assessment?
Include examples of ways in which culture-biased assessments have been problematic.
How would you select tests that are culture-neutral?
Include examples of when culture-biased assessments have been problematic.
Explain the consequences of not following the selection process for both the client and psychologist.
Describe how the APA decision-making process facilitates more ethical professional behavior. -
