Methods: The study conformed to the ethical standards of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Australian Catholic University ethics committee. Twenty-six adults aged 22 to 52 years were chosen for the opiate-user group and 30 adults aged 18 to 53 years with no history of drug use were chosen for the control group. There was no difference in gender, but the participants in the opiate-user group were long-term users and were all enrolled in an opiate substitution program.

Pathos refers to emotion and is to appeal to the audience compassion. On page 2, pathos is used when Gloria talks about how she felt when she got ashamed for talking in Spanish in an English living community. “I remember being caught speaking Spanish at recess- that was for three licks on the knuckles with a sharp ruler” (Anzaldua 2).

Later, when the ambulances arrived, he was so distraught, he could not speak… next to Diallo’s bullet-ridden body, and started to cry.” (Gladwell 194)

The author shows their credibility by stating they are representatives of the United States of America. The authors also portrayed this by, “In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms.”

Levitt and Aligo (2013) state that “Morals are foundation to professional and ethical counseling practice.” Lawrence Kohlberg was a Harvard psychologist that developed a theory on how people develop morality. This model of moral development are deemed to be “transcultural—that is, they are found in every culture in the world,” (Boss, 2015, p. 274). Kohlberg’s theory began to gain the attention of his peers in the 1970’s and is still considered a standard today.
