Part 1
5. 1,750- to 2,100-word APA paper that develops a campaign for an intervention strategy
that addresses your issue. Your campaign should be designed to persuade the target
audience you identified in your Altruism Proposal to take action for your cause and the
people at-risk.
Include the following items:
About the issue:
Discuss the nature and history of your issue.
Examine the effect the issue has on society.
About your strategy for persuading others to help
Select at least two elements of persuasion utilized in your campaign.
Justify the use of these elements by connecting them to various motivations of
altruistic behavior as identified in social exchange theory.
About the campaign itself
Who is the target audience
How will you make contact with the target audience
How will you present your persuasive campaign to the target audience
Discuss the implications of your strategy in terms of intervention and prevention.
Part 2
Prepare a 10- to 12-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation that you would make to
your target audience to persuade them to take action. The goal of the presentation is
to convince the target audience to join you in the campaign against the social wrong you
are addressing in the paper. The power point is not to teach the target audience about
concepts of social psychology, so it should not include slides about course concepts such
as the elements of persuasion, altruism, social exchange theory) covered in the paper.
(This would be like putting a statement on a billboard saying why you chose the attractive
model or the color blue.) Since the Power Point is directed at the audience, you can use
information about the nature of the problem. In the speaker's notes for each slide, just
put one sentencethat gives the rationale for what is on the slide.
What about this slide makes it convincing or educational? Ex: This slide uses the
face of a celebrity to add credibility. Do not repeat what is on the slide.
6. Include at least four references in your presentation. Some or all references may be
used for both the paper and the presentation
Format consistent with APA guidelines.
