Integrative Paper #1: Development of Human Sexuality
The goal of this paper is to examine factors that influence the development of
human sexuality; including biological sex, gender identity and roles, sexual
orientation, and the relationships between these terms.
Your paper will include the following sections.

Introduction: Identify the primary topics covered in the paper as well as introduce
the application of the concepts to real life examples and observations. Include a
brief overview and strong thesis statement for your overall paper.

Literature Review and Application: The main body of your paper will include a
review of current research, theories, and models related to the topic using
multiple scholarly sources. Based on the review of literature you will select items
that relate to your field observations and media examples. Analyze the
observations/examples you have found as they pertain to the research, theories,
and terms used within human sexuality. Synthesize the pertinent research
literature and consider how this information relates the specific topics outlined
below.

Conclusion and Summary: Summarize main themes, key points, insights and
conclusions resulting from your investigation of the topics for this paper. Tie in
content covered throughout paper to your thesis statement included in the
introduction.

(It is recommended you use the bolded Section names above as your headings within
your own paper to organize the content you present.)
Project Details & Requirements
To successfully complete this project, you will be expected to:
1. Research topics associated with the content area above. Your text will be a great
starting point for you and can be used as one of your sources. The text should not
be the primary source used. Using the Baker Library as well as other credible,
scholarly sources, you will research the factors, terms, theories, models, and
approaches associated with the content above.
2. Conduct field observations, find media and experiential examples of cases that
relate to the topics covered in the paper. Ensure you clearly note sources of
observations so you can describe them and cite sources (media sources will be
cited). Examples should be appropriate for a scholarly paper. If real life examples
are used, the identity of the people in the example should not be clear to the reader.
This includes the use of any personal examples. Examples need to be written in a
neutral way, and you will not use the first person (I, me, my) in your writing for this
paper.

Suggested field sites for observations: malls, sports bar/restaurants, workplace, college campus, community or church events, or any place where a significant number of people are gathered and interacting.

Films and other media can also provide good sources of case examples related to the topics.

3. Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with expectations of APA 6th edition.
