A research question, which is more specific and focused than a general topic, is the question that your research paper will be answering.

The Trauma Symptom Inventory (TSI) is a test that was developed by John Briere to evaluate traumatic symptoms of the acute and chronic nature. The test has been in circulation for close to fifteen years now, beginning in 1995 and continuing through today (2008). The TSI was designed to be administered to a group of people of at least eighteen years of age. The test itself is a paper and pencil test, consisting of one hundred questions/items and is based on a four point Likert scale, zero being never and three being often (Purves & Erwin, 2004). An example item from the TSI is a statement such as “not feeling happy” or “suddenly remembering something upsetting from your past” (Fernandez, nd). The test taker is instructed to answer never through often based on the occurrence of the statement provided. The TSI makes it very explicit that the answers that an individual gives should be based on the six months prior to taking the test (Fernandez, nd).…

Human Services in the United States recently received what many have heralded a big win for Americans nationally when The Affordable Care Act was signed into law. Politically the health care law known as Obama Care was signed into law March 23, 2010 and immediately was challenged in the courts as being unconstitutional and infringing upon the rights of citizens with the mandated requirement that all Americans purchase health insurance or face penalties for not doing so. Two years ago on June 28th 2012 the Supreme Court rendered a final decision to uphold the health care law.
