CMRJ 518 Week 5 Discussion Substance Use and Abuse
Forums this week cover a lot of ground. Our reading covers substance abuse, changing attitudes about drug use, theoretical explanations of drug use, addiction, and criminal justice responses to this form of deviance.
Questions
1. 1. Evaluate the role psychological and sociological factors play in explaining substance abuse. Which do you feel is more important and why? Support your work with evidence from research.
2. In your view, which behavior is more deviant and which will likely cause the most harm? Smoking pot every day or consuming alcohol each day? Support your work.
Instructions: Your initial post in answer to the question should be 500-750 words. Use a minimum of two peer reviewed references in the development of your answer. Provide two feedback posts to your peers. Each feedback post should be 300 words or more, and should include information that helps to enhance the discussion on the topic. Do not include statements such as “great work” or “excellent post.” Try to include information that is challenging and respectful and that will stimulate debate. Also, be mindful of including references and citations whenever citing facts to support your position. Always use APA 6th edition citations and references.
