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.
