Marital Paradigm
After reading Chapter 7, Write a paper in which you describe the Ideal Marital Paradigm.  Answer the following:
1-What kinds of behavior did you observe growing up in your home? 
2-What assumptions were made about communication and conflict? 
3-To what extent do you think this early training has influenced your adult relationships? 
4-What kinds of improvements would you like to make, and how would you do so?
5-Chapter 7 is your primary reference point; you must cite it in your essay. Please include citations and list the textbook as your reference on the reference page.  You are expected to cite a minimum of three times.  
For the personal questions, general situations of childhood experiences can be fabrictaed to better suit the contents of the essay. My personal experience is my parents had poor communication as my dad would argue aggressively and my mom would be very emotional when arguing. This essay is designed to have one think about communication, conflict, and relationships.
Textbook is called The Marriage and Family Experience: Intimate relationships in a changing society. I attached a file with CH 7 where at least 3 citations are needed, a couple others would be beneficial as well. 
APA format in word document is required.

Students will write at least three paragraphs analyzing and reflecting on the information they are learning during the week.  The text has  “Reflect and Connect” sections throughout the chapters which require readers to pause and think about the material they are reading. You can use those questions as a guide or you can reflect on other information that sparked your interest. You can also reflect on  videos, assignments or events that are happening in the world, but you mus demonstrate that you have read the text.

Week 4: Monday, June 10 – Sunday, June 16
Read: Thomas: Chapter 4/A Hostile Environment: Meritor Savings Bank, FSB v. Vinson (1986)
Read: Thomas: Chapter 8/Taking it All the Way to Sandra “F-ing” Day O’Connor: Harris v.
Forklift Systems, Inc. (1993)
**Weekly Assignment Due: Sunday, June 16 by 11:59pm**
1. In chapter 4, what happened that led Vinson to file a lawsuit? Explain, citing specific examples from
the text. What did the person Vinson accused say happened? Do you consider this a “he said/she said”
case (where you cannot really prove it because each side claims something different) or not? Explain.
2. Using what you learned from the WORD document I posted on sexual harassment, do you think what
Vinson experienced was quid pro quo or hostile work environment harassment? Explain, using examples
from the Thomas book.
3. In chapter 8, explain how what Harris experienced was similar or different to the Vinson case?
Would a “reasonable person” (see post on sexual harassment for this week) perceive what Harris
experienced at work as sexual harassment? Why did the author name the chapter “Taking it All
the Way to Sandra F-ing Day O’Connor? Explain, using examples from the text.
4. What did you find most interesting/surprising about the cases for this week?
5. Watch the film Bombshell or She Said (which are both based on real cases of sexual
harassment). What type of sexual harassment was portrayed in the film you chose? Give
specific examples. Given what you learned in the film, why do many women not report what
happened to them or hesitate to go on the record?
Note: You should be able to answer these questions in approximately three full pages total
(double-spaced). Do not include the questions in your submission on canvas. Do not use
ChatGPT, AI or any other internet sources for your answers. As always, cite where you got
information by saying (which version of the book you used / page number / paragraph where
information was found).

This assignment is a variation of a film analysis. It covers Chapter 3 (Culture) and Chapter 6 (Deviance). It has three sections. Please read the instructions for each section carefully. Sections 2 and 3 require in-text citations. Do not use direct quotes. A bibliography at the end of the assignment is needed and should contain all sources cited. This exercise will help you understand how sociological concepts are embedded in our everyday lives, even in films.
Section One
To complete this assignment, select one of the films listed below. You can pick a film that is not listed; however, you must receive my approval to use it. If you choose to use another film, please email me your option by noon on Wednesday. If you pick a film you have already seen, I recommend watching the film again to avoid basing your responses on memory, which can lead to errors. For films with multiple options listed, pick the one you want to use. Unless noted otherwise, the titles are available to rent, buy, or stream with a subscription on various platforms. # indicate that it is available for free on Tubi. * indicate that it is free on The Roku Channel.

Section Two
For each of the concepts listed, identify at least one specific example from your selected film that demonstrates the concept without explicitly talking about the concept. Your response should be 3-4 sentences per concept. You should clearly state the concept, define the concept in your own words (i.e., do not copy and paste), and explain how the concept is demonstrated in the film. Provide timestamps. Vague references to the concept or a moment in the film will earn you a low grade. Responses should be organized in a list by concept/concept pairing.
diffusion OR innovation (You can do diffusion or innovation, not both)
deviance
cultural universal
informal social control vs formal social control
an example of material culture
real culture vs. ideal culture
dominant ideology vs subculture OR counterculture vs. dominant ideology
stigma
Section Three
For each of the prompts below, use specific examples from the selected film. When referencing the film, provide timestamps in in-text citations. Vague references to the concept or a moment in the film will earn you a low grade. Remember, paragraphs are 4-6 sentences in length.
Using the film, explain the concept of conflicting values. Identify and describe the values in conflict. This conflict can be in the film, between the film and society (dominant, subculture, or counterculture), OR between the values displayed in the film and your values. (Response 2-3 paragraphs; cite film and textbook at least once)
This prompt focuses on the sociological perspectives of crime and deviance. Select which sub-theory you will focus on for each approach and briefly explain the theory. Response to each prompt should be 2-3 paragraphs; cite film and textbook at least once.
Using the film, explain the functionalist approach to understanding crime/deviance. Pick one of the following that best relates to your movie:
Durkhiem’s functions of deviance,

Sutherland’s Cultural Transmission,
Labeling Theory, or
Social Disorganization Theory
Using the film, explain the conflict approach to understanding crime/deviance. Response to each prompt should be 2-3 paragraphs; cite film and textbook at least once.
