Normative human behavior

Present a clear analysis of HOW the descriptive determines normative human behavior and/or vice versa; must be in relation to covid-19. 5-6 pages double spaced APA, not including the title page and resources page. Background: During the recent state of emergency, there is a strong interconnection between the descriptive and the normative. The descriptive is about how we understand the world–e.g., what is the transmission rate of the virus; how long will the shelter in pace last; to what extent is the medical infrastructure of a local region prepared for a given amount of patients?

But the normative has to do with planning, deciding, and reasoning through what people should do as a function of the current state of affairs. We discussed that there is a strong connection such that the descriptive can inform the normative. How we understand the scientific modelling informs what kind of heuristics we use–e.g., 6 foot distance rule. Your task is to analyze a particular connection between the descriptive and the normative. Pretend that you are Sherlock Holmes, trying to track down, explain, and illuminate the the complex ethical-sociobiological machine.

Normative human behavior

Write a paper where you present a clear analysis of HOW the descriptive determines normative human behavior and/or vice versa. A few qualifications: I’d like to keep these topics COVID-19 related. But if you have some other topic, let me know what it is and we can run through it. Do not do the following topics: 6 foot rule, mask wearing, anti-vaccination. These topics are simplistic. Please recall our example about how normative belief systems determine transmission rates (luckily, you have the full lecture in video format, so please take a look).

Go into detail, teach me something fascinating about the connection between the descriptive and the normative. I’d recommend keeping the topic very very focused. Focus on just one type of relationship between the descriptive and the normative. Let me give you a quick example, there is a ton of research about how COVID-19 isolation is creating altered time perception. One could write a 50 page paper about isolation, time perception, and differences in human interaction. This is just one particular thing to focus on, but it can still be limited to a huge extent.

There are three very important general features that your essay needs to have: 1) It has to be specific. Do NOT talk in vagueness or in generalities. Make a precise point using your reasoning; 2) Your discussion has to be seamlessly integrated. In other words, stay away from a series of disconnected thoughts; 3) Always cite your sources. Always check a. how you are using information in your papers; b. your plagiarism value on turnitin. ANY TIME you use an idea from another paper – not just a quote-, you MUST cite the author. This is implicit in APA 7. https://youtu.be/lfapxZUTiCU
