https://youtu.be/DD-pZ7LwL4A

The case of Genie Wiley has attracted psychologists for various reasons but children are a vulnerable population when it comes to research and experimentation. As you watch this documentary in preparation for this assignment, consider the following:

Language acquisition in children and the “window” of opportunity for learning

Forms of communication: verbal, non-verbal

Research ethics

Protection of children and disabled individuals

Biological and emotional needs of humans

Answer ALL of the following prompts in essay style writing in regards to Genie Wiley. Avoid the use of first person point of view (“I think”) and cite all sources. The textbook and documentary should be your main sources. Any other sources need to be peer reviewed journal articles, meaning an actual research study that was conducted and printed in a well established journal. Verywellmind.com, PsychologyToday.com, and the likes are NOT peer reviewed sources and should not be used. In other words, do not use websites as a source. Again, the majority of your information needs to come from the textbook and other materials in this course. Summarizing and paraphrasing is best and please avoid the use of direct quotes.
