Prevention, however, cannot take place without intelligence and investigative activities hence a need for law enforcement intelligence. Information is thus crucial since it assists in the prevention and resource allocation (“Understanding Contemporary Law Enforcement Intelligence: Concept and Definition”, n.d.).

“Is Google Making Us Stupid” In choosing the topical issue for my final research paper, I considered the article “Is Google Making Us Stupid” by Nicholas Carr. Through some research, I found many articles addressed the issue of parents cautioning their children on the use of the internet.

Concept of Mental Age Mental age is the age level of the mental ability of an individual (Benjamin, 2009). It bases on the period in which it takes an average individual to reach that same level of mental attainment — mental age measured by standardized intelligence tests (Benjamin, 2009). For example, early versions of the Standford-Binet Intelligence Scales calculated a mental age based on how well a child performed on the test. The concept of mental age has been debatable over the years. The supporters of the idea believe intellectual development is the same for every child. Those who do not agree with this concept believe intellectual development is not a straight path as it depends on the individual, which is true because every child is different in their way (David, 2019). In the context of persons with intellectual disability, the concept of mental age is also debatable. According to (Brown, McDonnell, and Snell, 2016), the idea of psychological maturity is just a way of denying equal rights to people with disabilities. They claim that people use this concept to…
