Attitudes and Behaviors Connect
Instructions In this assignment, you will assess how your attitudes and behaviors connect in order to understand how cognitive dissonance as a cognitive process can influence the way you think and what attitudes you hold. This assignment is divided into three parts, so it is suggested that you begin working on it in advance. Part I: Pick a debatable issue that you think is important to address in society today (e.g., universal healthcare). Write a paragraph discussing why you care about and agree with the importance of this issue, and why others should care about this issue as well. Allow one day before moving on to the next part. Part II: Make sure at least one day has passed since writing the first paragraph. Now, write another paragraph detailing what you personally do to promote this viewpoint. What actions do you take to support this cause? How have you specifically contributed to promoting this issue in the recent past? You will include both of these paragraphs in your essay. Part III: To complete your essay, identify your chosen topic in an introductory section and include your paragraphs from Parts I and II. Then, reflect on your previous responses by addressing the following points. Discuss the differences between your arguments from the first paragraph (in which you show the importance of the topic) and the second paragraph (in which you discuss how you personally act on your viewpoint). Are your attitudes about the importance of the issue reflected in your behaviors (i.e., is there dissonance between your attitudes and your behaviors)? How do you feel about the level of dissonance between your attitudes and behaviors? Elaborate on whether you think that your opinion of the importance of this topic has changed, particularly thinking about your initial thoughts on the topic before you wrote either paragraph. Briefly describe how experiencing cognitive dissonance about a debatable issue may make a person more susceptible to social influence, such as conformity, from others who hold opposing opinions. Throughout your discussion, incorporate research on cognitive dissonance from your textbook or another resource to support your claims. Your response should be at least two pages in length, and you must use at least two sources as references, one of which may be your textbook. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations. Please format your paper and all citations in accordance with APA guidelines.

Corporate Governance and Business Ethics
I need your help. I have to overhaul my article since my grader maker direct me to do amendments and resubmission. 1) Need to revise the “Manuscript and References” Current issues are described as follows; Issue 1: There is no theoretical development of formal hypotheses and the theoretical foundations and cases presented in the manuscript do not provide new insights. Issue 2: It is not clear how the narratives on the subjected company could bring new insights on our understanding of the interrelationship between corporate governance and business ethics. Issue 3: From discussions and narratives presented in the article, there are several theories (institutional theory, corporate reputation, agency theory and corporate governance theory) but they are not explicitly discussed how these theories could provide us with a better understanding on how corporate governance and business ethics can create value to the shareholders. Issue 4: Most of discussions on the subjected company are facts from public sources. Existing literature on corporate governance, business ethics and firm performance (firm value) have been well-developed, both theoretically and empirically (i.e., Grant and McGhee, 2014; Shah, 1996; Warren, 2002; Webley and Werner, 2008). Issue 5: it is required to conduct deeper literature review to understand what have been done and formulate more meaningful narratives based on solid theoretical foundations and describe the qualitative analyses based on a case study more carefully such that this study provides significant contributions to the article. Issue 6: The case study about the subjected company has been analysed ad infinitum in the world. The contribution of the case studies about the company gave much emphasis to governance frameworks such as changes in the US Sentencing Guidelines, SOX, etc. 2) The title page should include: A concise and informative title (limit 15 words) 3) Need to revise “Abstract section” accordingly Please provide an abstract of 250 words.
