INSTRUCTIONS:
Using a reputable news website (FoxNews, CNN, etc.) find a current event story about someone engaging in either a positive (helping others) or a negative (hurting others) behavior. Write a short paper (500 words) describing the behavior and discuss how a Behaviorist, Cognitive Psychologist, and Physiological Psychologist might go about trying to understand that behavior.
