Cybercrime and Technology 
In this assignment, you will use Chapter 3 of Rossi (2004) as a guide in the development of a
proper research question that can be used as the foundation upon which you will build your Final
Paper. To further assist you in the development of a practical, measurable, and valid research
question, read the introduction and methodology sections of any of the journal articles listed
within the Required Resources or Recommended Resources sections throughout the course.
Examining the methodologies and opening sections of a journal article will provide examples of
how other scholars have generated their hypotheses and research questions. The research
question will appear in the introduction of the Final Paper as well as within its methodology section.
Next, you will use your research question to assist in the formation of a proper introduction for
your Final Paper. Provide your readers with a summary of the topic under consideration, its place
in the field of criminal justice, why it is important to undertake an evaluation of the topic, policy
relevance, social significance, and anything else you discover that might be considered
noteworthy. You can use this week’s recommended article or any scholarly articles you find to
guide you as to the proper organization of the introduction. Your introduction and research
question should be drafted in such a manner as to be suitable for presentation before an
audience of criminal justice professionals.
In your paper,
Formulate the research question you will address in your Final Paper.
