All models are wrong. Some models are useful.
—George E. P. Box (1919–2013)
Statistician

Describing and explaining social phenomena is a complex task. Box’s quote speaks to the point that it is a near impossible undertaking to fully explain such systems—physical or social—using a set of models. Yet even though these models contain some error, the models nevertheless assist with illuminating how the world works and advancing social change.

The competent quantitative researcher understands the balance between making statements related to theoretical understanding of relationships and recognizing that our social systems are of such complexity that we will always have some error. The key, for the rigorous researcher, is recognizing and mitigating the error as much as possible.

As a graduate student and consumer of research, you must recognize the error that might be present within your research and the research of others.

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Use the Walden Library Course Guide and Assignment Help found in this week’s Learning Resources to search for and select a quantitative article that interests you and that has social change implications.
  • As you read the article, reflect on George Box’s quote in the introduction for this Discussion.
  • For additional support, review the Skill Builder: Independent and Dependent Variables, which you can find by navigating back to your Blackboard Course Home Page. From there, locate the Skill Builder link in the left navigation pane.

BY DAY 3

Post a very brief description (1–3 sentences) of the article you found and address the following:

  1. Describe how you think the research in the article is useful (e.g., what population is it helping? What problem is it solving?).
  2. Using Y=f(X) +E notation, identify the independent and dependent variables.
  3. How might the research models presented be wrong? What types of error might be present in the reported research?

Ethics A Global Perspective homework

/in /by

Topic: Chapter 8 (“Global Conflict”) divides “just war” theory into jus ad bello—that is, law of going to war— and jus in bello—law in the conduct of war (See p. 175). For this assignment, I want to concentrate on the second, in particular on when it is justified to open fire on a suspected enemy combatant (sometimes called “rules of engagement,” or ROE).

On July 12th, 2007, US soldiers in Apache helicopters were over New Baghdad City, Iraq, conducting a “sweep,” to look out for hostile enemy forces in the neighborhood, in advance of US ground troops that were heading in the same direction. During the operation, a number of men were seen on the streets, and soldiers in the helicopter fired their weapons, having suspected the men were hostile. To get a more detailed picture of what happened, you’ll need to watch the video a few times (see below).

Your response:

1) View the footage in the youtube link (here or below).

2) Write a brief response of about 1-1 ½ pages on whether the US forces were justified in opening fire on the Iraqi men below them.

3) Your response should evaluate their actions according to the three principles for the conduct of war described in your textbook: discrimination, proportionality, and military necessity (See pp. 182-184 in your textbook). As you make your evaluation, you will need to define and apply these concepts clearly and accurately. I recommend reviewing the textbook a few times before you start.

Assignment 2: LASA 1—Diagnosis for Substance Use Disorder with Co-occurring Disorder

In your professional capacity as a substance abuse counselor, you are not permitted to give diagnoses for mental disorders other than those related to substance abuse. However, you will likely be exposed to clients with mental health disorders in the assessment or treatment process. The competent substance abuse evaluator will be able to identify clients who present mental health disorders and make the appropriate referrals. Providing appropriate referrals for clients is common in the substance abuse field.

In M1: Assignment 3, you developed a case history for a person with an addiction. In this assignment, you will develop a case history and include one mental disorder. The inclusion of a mental disorder in your case study will aid in the examination of co-occurring disorders. You will then present your diagnosis and referrals.

This assignment has two parts. Complete both parts.

Part I

Create a case history for a person with an addiction and a mental disorder. Do not include identifying information. Include the following elements in your case history:

  • Demographics—including age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, marital status, number and ages of children, living arrangements, and religion if applicable
  • Presenting problem
  • Previous psychiatric treatment of patient
  • Previous chemical treatment of patient
  • Chemical history
  • Medical history—including disabilities if applicable
  • Work and education history
  • Legal or financial concerns
  • Family background
  • Concerned person involvement
  • Referral source

Part II

Analyze the case history and present your diagnosis as related to substance use disorders. Include the following in your diagnosis:

  • Summarize key case study elements you would use to formulate a diagnosis and guide your treatment plan.
  • Identify at least two assessment tools that you would use to formulate a diagnosis. Justify why you have selected these tools.
  • State your diagnosis related to substance use disorders. Justify your reasons for your diagnosis.
  • Identify other concerns and offer recommendations and referral opportunities. Justify your reasons and explanations.

Write a 3–4-page report in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M3_A2.doc.

By Wednesday, February 10, 2016, deliver your assignment to the M3: Assignment 2 Dropbox.

Literature Review Paper

/in /by

The learning outcome of this assignment is to understand how to conduct research on a given topic. Also, the outcome includes the application of your research about strategic human resources planning for your HR practice. Research and staying current on HR related topics is a critical need for an HR practitioner as is the knowledge of how to strategically plan for the Human Resources function.

For this assignment, you are asked to develop a literature review on the topic of strategic human resource management. The paper requires you to develop a short (about three to five pages) document on the current thinking and research in the area of strategic human resource management. You may include examples in your paper about how the Human Resources function creates initiatives that are strategic such as targeted recruitment, a Total Rewards program, engagement studies just to name a few, but the main focus on the paper is on the strategic nature of the Human Resource function.

You want to conduct a scholarly review of the literature, and you must have a minimum of three citations (excluding our course materials). Again, your topic is strategic human resource management but you may provide examples of strategic HR initiatives.

Review the paper provided “Writing a Literature Review Paper.” Keep in mind that a literature review is not merely a bibliographic list of resources. A literature review is your synthesis of the scholarly research available on the subject.

Your literature review can be used to inform management for decisions that are pending and/or serve as a basis for mere knowledge sharing. Literature reviews can be stand-alone documents or parts of a larger document. This assignment is to create a stand-alone literature review. Your literature review must use scholarly references and it must be written in a narrative format synthesizing the research from your citations, which must be in presented in APA format. Be sure to use topic headings such as Introduction, Main Findings and Conclusions. The paper will include at the least the following::

1. Title page

2. Introduction and Purpose of the Paper

3. General Findings of the Research (including definition of the topic)

4. Synthesis of the Findings

5. Conclusions

6. Reference Page

INSTRUCTIONS:

Being prepared to answer questions is an important part of an interview, but be ready to also ask questions. Most prospective employers will set aside time to answer questions you may have. This is your opportunity to not only learn more about the company, but also to show the prospective employer that you have done your homework and are genuinely interested in joining the team. For this assignment, you will both prepare answers to common questions asked of applicants in your field, and also plan out questions to ask the interviewer. Please complete both steps below:

  1. Research and find 5 common questions asked of applicants in your field. For each question, write a well thought-out response.
  2. Write down 5 questions you can ask during an interview. These can be specific to an employer, or generalized to your chosen career field.

Case and Discussion: Headache

/in /by

Case and Discussion: Headache

A 35-year-old woman comes to your office to discuss her “bad headaches,” which started after having her first child 2 years ago. The headaches sometimes awaken her from sleep and at times can be disabling and occasionally require her to take Tylenol and rest in a dark room. Sometimes she vomits during an attack. Over the past 6 months, her headaches have become more severe and frequent, prompting her visit today.

  • What additional questions would you ask to learn more about her headaches?
  • How do you classify headaches?
  • How can you determine if this is an old headache or a new headache/s? Is this a chronic or episodic condition?
  • Can you make a definite diagnosis through an open-ended history followed by focused questions?
  • How can you use the patient history to distinguish between benign headaches and serious ones that require urgent attention?
  • What diagnostic tests do you want to include to help you with your diagnosis?
  • Create a differential diagnosis flow sheet for this patient for this patient and include the diagnostics related to the differentials.
