In this assignment, you will use Chapter 3 of Rossi (2004) as a guide in the development of a proper research question that can be used as the foundation upon which you will build your Final Paper.

To further assist you in the development of a practical, measurable, and valid research question, read up on introduction and methodology sections of any journal articles.

Examining the methodologies and opening sections of a journal article will provide examples of how other scholars have generated their hypotheses and research questions.

The research question will appear in the introduction of the Final Paper as well as within its methodology section.

Next, you will use your research question to assist in the formation of a proper introduction for your Final Paper.

Provide your readers with a summary of the topic under consideration, its place in the field of criminal justice, why it is important to undertake an evaluation of the topic, policy relevance, social significance, and anything else you discover that might be considered noteworthy.

You can use this week's recommended article or any scholarly articles you find to guide you as to the proper organization of the introduction.
