Psychological/Sociological/Academic Samples (APA, ASA, MLA)
Psychology:
The visual cliff is an experiment that uses a plexiglass covered table with a checkerboard print underneath, one checkerboard is right beneath the glass and the other is lowered several feet below the glass. The infant is placed on the side with the closer checkerboard pattern, it perceives this to be the actual surface of the table. There is a white edge in between the checkerboards so the infant can perceive a cliff when looking over the white edge and to the lowered part of the table. This experiment is designed to test if crawling infants can perceive the lowered part of the table as a cliff and avoid a steep fall over the perceived edge. It was found that the majority of crawling infants do not readily cross to the deep side. While some crossed over, most did not, proving that infants have preference for the shallow side of the table and avoid the deep side. This exposes the infants ability to perceive depth and their survival instinct to avoid drop-offs, that may lead to a fatal fall. This leads us to assume the correlation between neural development and physical independence. As babies have more experience independently exploring their worlds they strengthen neural connections associated with vision and spatial awareness.
Children can pick up their mother's communication style as early as age 3, which means that for an American child, it is vital to use a variety of communication styles at a young age. This ensures that they will not just be well rounded, but test well academically, which is proven to be correlated with overall life success. In other cultures where standardized testing isn't as vital to their communication, they may emphasize other styles like rhyming/singing, nonverbal communication and gesture language (Demuth, 2015). It is important to remember that communication styles do not denote a lack of intelligence. The tests themselves not being designed for every style of communication are not going to give accurate results to those who are not familiar with testing language. Those with differing communication styles may be just as intelligent within their own culture and simply do not fit into the binary testing categories/styles of the Euro-American nations.
Sociology:
Environmental racism is directly caused by industrial corporations and the government institutions that regulate them. Those who suffer from it continue to be nonwhite minorities, that have low-income, low levels of education and underrepresentation within their local government. These practices I have witnessed first hand through the oil refining plants, toxic landfill systems and hazardous waste facilities that surround the black communities in Houston. Through consumer re-education, industry regulation and restructuring zoning policy we can alleviate some of the damage but most can not be undone.
That the TV series is showing a underrepresentation of the actual population demographics of the U.S. prison system. This is important because the media is trying to hide the racism that is the cause for mass incarceration of African Americans over the last 30 years. By representing the numbers disproportionately the American public is fooled into thinking that prison populations must be made up of similar numbers. This is not true and by the media doing this we are forced to turn a blind eye to the racial disparity of the prison population

Fiction
She finally got to my place around 11:15 and barged through the door in the skimpiest hot pink terri cloth dress. Her implants busting out of the top of it and only covered by her bikini, tiny hot pink cloth triangles with string attached. She was tall, thin fake tanned and platinum blonde. By anyone's standards you could say she was beautiful in a stereotypical stripper way. But equally beautiful she was crazy. Meredith was the same age as Q and she didn't trust him at all. I only think she came over half the time to look after me which I didn't mind. I nicknamed her Mama Mere because she was always trying to take care of me more than herself. She had her hair pulled up but a full face of makeup on. She had brought a handle of Tito's and some cranberry juice.
"Heyyyyyyy!!!" she announced into my ear as she gave me a hug. She lifted the bottle above her head. "I stole this from the bar last night!"
"If you had already bought bottle service it doesn't count as stealing." I told her as I took the bottle out of her hands and into the kitchen.
"I didn't buy it" she grinned back at me and I laughed as I got the shot glasses out of the cabinet.
