Week-2 Assignment Ethics Due January 08, 2017

An important question regarding the boundaries of competence is the extent of training required to learn a new skill.

In Annotated Bibliographic format, review, summarize, and evaluate the selected articles and their conclusions. Review the results, and then provide, in your own words, a 2 to 3-paragraph summary, including your recommendations. Be sure to cite the basis for your conclusions.

Length: Annotated Bibliography for the five articles and 2 to 3-paragraph summary, not including title and reference pages

While working late in your position as assistant director of educational assessment at the Psychological Assessment Institute in Rancho Cucamonga, California, you observed one of the maintenance personnel on a coffee break watching videos of what appears to be children posing nude.
