Select an artifact or image created in 1000–1300 C.E. using the textbook or other academic resource, such as a museum or library website. Artifacts can include written works, laws, codes, buildings, maps, art, rituals,
dance, holidays, and so on; for this exercise, if your choice is not tangible itself, be sure to include a weblink or textbook page number for a related physical relic. Your answer should explain how your chosen artifact (and
relic) reflects the character of this period. Support your insight with at least one example of a connection to a specific political, economic, or religious development to which it relates.

Submit your summary.
Relationship Between Research and Social Change
For this Assignment, you will evaluate the purpose statements in assigned journal articles in your discipline and consider the alignment of theory, problem, and purpose. You will also explain your position on the
relationship between research and social change.
Alignment means that a research study possesses clear and logical connections among all of its various components. To achieve these connections, researchers must carefully craft the components of their study such
that when they are viewed together, there is a coherent interrelationship.
As you read the authors’ purpose statements, consider how well the intent of the study, and its connection to the problem and theoretical framework, is presented. Also consider if the purpose statement reveals the
study’s potential for engendering positive social change.
As you know, social change is a distinguishing feature of Walden University’s mission. Positive social change implies a transformation that results in positive outcomes. This can happen at many levels (e.g., individual,
family systems, neighborhoods, organizations, nationally and globally); and positive social change can occur at different rates: slow and gradual or fast and radical.
With these thoughts in mind, refer to the Journal Articles document for your assigned articles for this Discussion.
Read Journal Article A:
Forster, M., Grigsby, T. J., Unger, J. B., & Sussman, S. (2015). Associations between gun violence exposure, gang associations, and youth aggression: Implications for prevention and intervention programs. Journal of Criminology, doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2015/963750
Critique the research study in which you:
Evaluate the purpose statement.
The Purpose Statement Checklist serves as a guide for your evaluation. Please do not respond to the checklist in a Yes/No format in writing your Discussion post.
Analyze alignment among the theory, research problem, and purpose.
Explain your position on the relationship between research and social change.
