ANSWER
SCENARIO: A researcher believes exercise may affect anxiety in women, but research appears inconclusive. She identifies a group of women (N = 30) who had not exercised before, but are now planning to begin exercising. She gives them a 50-item anxiety inventory before they begin exercising and administers it again after 6 months of exercising. The anxiety inventory is measured on an interval scale and higher numbers indicate higher anxiety. In addition, scores on the inventory are normally distributed. The mean of the difference scores is 3.4, SD = 1.8, and there were 30 in the sample. Using this information, answer the following questions showing all work when calculations are required to earn up to full credit.

The Future Of Sentencing Goals
learn about the ideologies of punishment, or goals of sentencing, and how they influence different professional practices. For this discussion, you will introduce yourself to your classmates and discuss the future of each of the ideologies of punishment.

How Granny and Clark Kent should both respond to the situation of the burning building
Consider the following scenario: A burning building, relatively structurally sound, is engulfed in
flames, with 4 small children trapped inside. There are two people who must decide how to
respond to the situation: Granny — an 80-year-old misanthropic, pyrophobic, Luddite, who saw her
mother burn to death in a fire when she was younger. She’s in relatively good health, although she
uses a cane. She has a cell phone for emergencies, but she hates it. Clark Kent — a 30 year,
world-renowned firefighter who is on his way back from the latest firefighting championships. He
has all his gear with him but, like Wolverine in the X-men, has loads of superpowers, so he rarely
needs it.
A. Explain, thoroughly, the relevant aspects of Aristotle’s and Mill’s theories. In other words, what
would Aristotle and Mill think is (morally) at stake in this scenario?
B. Explain how Granny and Clark Kent should both respond to the situation of the burning building
from both Aristotle’s and Mill’s perspectives. Would Aristotle require both Granny and Clark
Kent to do the same thing? Why or why not? Would Mill?
C. Make an argument explaining which philosopher gives the better moral guidance and which
gives the worst. What’s something that you would change to ameliorate the “worse” theory?
