Case:

Family Problems In this case, three adult siblings are involved in a dispute over the distribution of property following the death of their remaining parent. The middle child, Delores, had been named the executor of her parent’s estate, but chose not to do anything other than what was required by law at her father’s death. According to the will, the estate was to be evenly divided between the surviving children. However, this has not yet occurred. As time went on (a couple of years) Delores’ older sister Jane took several large pieces of furniture from her parent’s home and gave them to her children. The younger brother, Ernie wanted to make other investments that would require the sale of the parent’s property. He also wanted to make sure that part of his parent’s estate would be available to pass on to his children.

Other Relevant Information

 Delores never married and has no children.

 The siblings have another sister, Penny, who was killed in a car accident many years ago. Penny was survived by an estranged spouse and four children.

 Jane’s reasoning abilities are hampered by a brain injury incurred in her late teens.

 Jane and her spouse live in California and visit for extended periods of time at least twice a year. Jane typically stays at her late parent’s home.

 Delores and Ernie live in Washington.

 Delores and Ernie’s family have generally gotten along well up to the death of their father.

 Ernie and Jane have not agreed on much of anything since Ernie married someone Jane did not approve of for him.

 Ernie and Jane had a further falling out when Jane said that Ernie’s wife would not be able to participate in their father’s funeral and that Ernie’s daughter had told him about Jane’s comment.

 Delores and Ernie and Jane all agreed in principle at least that Penny’s children should be included in the distribution of property when and if it should occur.

• For the following arguments, determine what statement is the conclusion and what statement/s are the premises. You may state it or underline it. Don't forget to look for indicator words as they will signal a conclusion or the premises. The next exercise, find the missing statement based on identification of the form.

1.      God is that than which none greater can be conceived. If God were just an idea we could easily conceive of something greater, namely, a God who actually existed. Therefore, if God is that than which none greater can be conceive, then God must exist. (St. Anselm)

2.      Titanium combines readily with oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen, all of which have an adverse effect on its mechanical properties. As a result, titanium must be processed in their absence. (World of Science Encyclopedia)

3.      Artists and poets look at the world and seek relationships and order. But they translate their ideas to canvas, or to marble, or into poetic images. Scientists try to find relationships between different objects and events. To express the order they find, they create hypotheses and theories. Thus, the great scientific theories are easily compared to great art and great literature. (Giancoli, The Ideas of Physics, 3^rd Ed.)

4.      Every art and every inquiry, and similarly every action and pursuit, is thought to aim at some good. For this reason, the good has rightly been declared to be that at which all things aim. (Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics)

5.      Al Gore has a clear vision of where this nation must go with regards to energy policies. Anyone who has such a vision can write his ticket into the 21^st century, and should be elected president. Al Gore is the right man to lead this country for the next four years. (Critical Thinking, Moore & Parker)

6.      The fact that there was never a land bridge between Australia and mainland Asia is evidenced by the fact that the animal species in the two areas are very different. Asian placental mammals and Australian marsupial mammals have not been in contact in the last several million years. (Price and Feinman, Images of the Past)

1. Independent-Samples t Test

A researcher had participants sit in a “waiting area” prior to participating in a study. In the waiting area was an attractive or unattractive woman sitting in one of the chairs. In fact, the same woman was present in the waiting area and manipulated to look either attractive or unattractive (relatively speaking). The woman was a confederate in the study, meaning that, unbeknownst to participants, she was a co-researcher in the study. Participants were asked to sit in the waiting area until called upon. One group waited in the room with the attractive confederate; the other group waited in the room with the unattractive confederate. The distance (in feet) that participants sat from the confederate was considered a measure of attraction. The results are given below. It was hypothesized that if this was actually measuring attraction, then participants should sit closer (in feet) to the attractive versus the unattractive confederate. Test this hypothesis at a .05 level of significance (compute a two-tailed test).

Recognizing Crime Trends

Follow this link to the FBI 2014 Uniform Crime Report

Read the “Overview” included on the first page and view the “Five-Year Trend Violent Crime Offense Figure” at the bottom of the page. Next, go to Table 4 on the right hand side of the page and follow the link to additional crime statistics by Region, Geographic Division, and State. Find the area that you live in or an area you are interested in examining and review the statistics. Next, go to Table 6 on the right hand side of the page and follow that link to additional crime statistics by Metropolitan Statistical Areas. Find the area that you live in or are interested in and review the statistics. Feel free to navigate around the website and view any information that interests you.

Once you have reviewed the information, answer the following questions in the form of an essay:

1.    Did anything about the Five Year Violent Crime Offense Figure surprise you?

2.    Think about the information you hear regarding violent crime every day from all forms of the news media, social web site platforms and just in talking to your friends, family and other associates. Does what you hear on a daily basis from all of these sources give you the impression that violent crime has gone down significantly?

3.    Discuss the general trends that you see on Tables 4 and 6 as to where in the country violent crime is trending up or down. Identify the areas such as “Northeast”, “South” or name the states and what the trends seem to be.

4.    Explain in detail what you think causes the differences in perception and reality in regards to violent crime. Use information from your text, the lectures and your personal experiences.

5.    Describe in detail why is it important to have and use complete and accurate crime data. What can it be used for? What mistakes could be avoided if the crime information is accurate and complete? What would the advantage be to an individual or group to misstate crime volume and trends?

Your paper must be formatted in the following manner:

·         The paper must be 500-750 words in length. Only the body of the paper counts towards the length. No information that belongs on a title page or reference page will count towards the length requirement.
