Need Yellow highlighted parts fixed.

IMPORTANT

Hi Casey,

First of all, do not panic when you read this.

Your assignment was flagged by our similarity report, but after I looked through

the report it really seems like more of a citing and APA issue. As you can see by

the report (attached) most of what is highlighted just needs to be in quotes (with

proper citation – including exact page where the quote is found) or put into your

own words (paraphrased) with a citation as you have currently applied.

Although the system will say this is a zero, it is not. Within your post, pasted

below, I put in yellow highlight the areas to which I refer. Please correct these

items and resubmit no later than 12:00 Noon, CST on Monday, January 27,

2020. Email me when you upload it. I will “re-grade” it then. Be very purposeful in

looking at each area that is highlighted (except for the references – which is normal

to be highlighted by the system). Make the corrections and resubmit. Let me know

if you have questions and again, please do not panic.

The Academic Honesty and Plagiarism Overview will be of great help. It

explains what plagiarism is and is attached to my faculty expectations

announcement. If you want another copy, let me know and I’ll send it to you.

Hello,

I am choosing the topic ” PTSD”. PTSD is a mental health condition that’s

triggered by a terrifying event — either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms

may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable

thoughts about the event. PTSD is considered [Used the words or ideas of others

without properly citing the source; did not use quotation as required by the

APA; in addition, this is not in your own words and it can be considered to be

plagiarized] a mental disorder. PTSD incites both physical and mental alterations.

PTSD needs an in-depth research study because the percentage of people being

diagnosed with PTSD is increasing and is expected to continue to grow; which

means it isn’t predicted to decrease any time soon

A qualitative methodology was adopted for this study due to the exploratory

nature of the research questions under investigation” (Murphy, D., Hunt, E.,

Luzon, O., & Greenberg, N., 2014). [Did not use quotation as required by the

APA; in addition, this is not in your own words and it can be considered to be

plagiarized]Qualitative research typically is categorized as descriptive

research. Qualitative data is gathered by the researcher and is usually obtained in a

tangible form including, but not limited to pictures, objects, or words. [Used the

The field of cultural clinical psychology takes an important stride forward with this

carefully edited volume on the cultural shaping of post-traumatic stress disorder.

An impressive group of experts combines rich theory with empirical and clinical

examples from a wide range of contexts, embracing the complexity of the subject

while pointing the way to potential solutions.
