This question aligns with Chapters 2 and 3 of Writing a Research Paper in Political Science.Review the CQ Researcher article "Guns on Campus." If your research question was, "Why is gun violence on campus more prevalent today than it was years ago?," which of the following schools of thought could be represented in the article?
A. Traditional-age Students Are Impulsive: Young people are more likely to act impulsively because, compared with adults, they binge drink more frequently and they have underdeveloped prefrontal cortexes. Thus, given there are more guns available to students and all Americans today, there is more violence on campus.
B. Unarmed Faculty: Too many private colleges around the country do not allow faculty to carry firearms, making everyone less safe and promoting gun violence by those who want to harm.
C. Prohibition of Concealed Carry: Despite support from the majority of students, faculty, and administrators around the country, too few institutions allow concealed carry. If potentially dangerous people could expect that students and employees at colleges and universities had guns, violence on campus would go down.
D. Too Few Guns on American Campuses: Researchers agree that the prevalence of guns in society has led to the overall drop in violent crime in the United States, and thus campuses are violent because the rules against carrying guns there are too strict.
