Assignment 2: Discouraged Workers and the Economy A “discouraged worker” is an individual without a job who has a desire to work; however, the worker has not actively searched for a job within the last six months, because the worker believes that there are no jobs available. Such a worker is not included in the official unemployment count. Consider a scenario where discouraged workers are now included in the official unemployment rate during a recessionary period in the economy. Which of the three types of unemployment—frictional, structural, or cyclical—do you believe that these unemployed workers would most closely qualify for? How about during a period of economic expansion? Explain your answers and include examples. Next, discuss and explain how including discouraged workers in the official unemployment rate would affect both the federal deficit and the national debt. Include examples to support your conclusions. .

Labor & employment lesson 11 a
The document discusses several key concepts related to labor and employment:
1. Labor is a factor of production and refers to human effort and skills. Human capital refers to the economic value of people's skills and abilities.
2. Employment involves a contract between an employer and employee, where the employee provides labor in exchange for wages. Unemployment exists when able and willing workers cannot find jobs.
3. Other concepts discussed include the unemployment rate, NAIRU, Phillips curve, underemployment, and differences in perspectives on the causes of unemployment from various economic theories.
Indian economy
The document discusses unemployment, defining it as people who want to work but are unable to find jobs. It describes how the Bureau of Labor Statistics measures unemployment through monthly surveys. There are four main types of unemployment: demand deficient during recessions, frictional as workers transition between jobs, structural when workers' skills do not match available jobs, and voluntary when workers leave jobs that do not pay enough. Unemployment is caused by factors from both the demand side like recessions and the supply side like workers' skills. It negatively impacts both workers through financial difficulties and the overall economy by reducing consumer spending.
Unemployment
There are three primary types of unemployment: structural, frictional, and cyclical. Structural unemployment occurs when workers' skills do not match the needs of available jobs, such as when new technologies make old skills obsolete. Frictional unemployment results from temporary transitions between jobs as workers search for new opportunities and change careers. Cyclical unemployment rises during economic downturns as fewer jobs are available. The unemployment rate is used to measure the health of an economy, representing the number of unemployed persons seeking work as a percentage of the labor force.

Ppt on unemployment
This document defines unemployment and discusses its various types, causes, costs, measurement, and solutions. It defines unemployment as a situation where capable and willing workers cannot find employment. The main types of unemployment discussed are frictional, structural, cyclical, and seasonal unemployment. Causes of unemployment mentioned include population growth, lack of job opportunities, seasonal factors, and slow industry development. Costs of unemployment include individual financial issues and societal underutilization of resources. Unemployment is typically measured by calculating the unemployment rate as a percentage of the unemployed workforce versus the total labor force. Proposed solutions include changing investment patterns, encouraging small businesses, subsidizing employment, and reorienting education.
UNEMPLOYMENT work ( slides).pptx
Unemployment is measured as the number of people willing and able to work but unable to find employment. There are different types of unemployment including cyclical, frictional, and structural. Theories of unemployment include the Keynesian and classical theories. Keynesian theory states that aggregate demand determines employment while classical theory says real wages impact employment. Unemployment has costs like reduced income and increased dependence. The NAIRU is the lowest unemployment rate that avoids inflation increases. Factors like productivity and benefits influence the NAIRU, which is important for policymakers to consider.
Moonlighting as ‘Coping Strategy’ for Irregular Payment of Salaries in Nigeri...
Moonlighting, a latent but real phenomenon in the Nigerian economic experience is being
considered alongside irregular workers’ monthly salary in Nigeria which has been on since 2015. Moonlighting
- keeping several jobs simultaneously under different employers as an employee, is more real in the western
world due to increasing legal control. In general, it is referred to as ‘hustling’, ‘multiple runs’, extra pursuits, or
‘PiPis’ in several contexts. Data was collected from 323 respondents from 4 Local Government Area
secretariats in Ekiti state through multistage sampling procedure. Statistics indicate a significant relationship [r
(323) = 0.47, p < .05] between workers’ irregular monthly salaries and the practice of moonlighting among
these public servants in Ekiti state. The affinity between irregular monthly salary and moonlighting has
significantly impacted job commitment deficit [r (323) = 0.47, p < .05]. Employees who experience high
irregularities in their salary tend to engage more in moonlighting (Mean=17.71; Std.Dev=4.96), than those who
have little experience of salary irregularities (Mean=15.77; Std.Dev=4.01). Employees who engage more in
moonlighting tend to be less committed (Mean=19.64; SD=3.77), in comparison with those who are less
engaged in moonlighting (Mean=20.30; Std.Dev=3.56). The study has shown that moonlighting has continued
as a habit and a strategy for mitigating the negative impact of irregular payment of workers’ salary among LG
employees. Increasing focus of labour law in that direction might be necessary to prevent its negative impact
on workers’ commitment and productivity in Ekiti State
lec10 unemployment.pptx
The document discusses how unemployment is defined and calculated. It begins by explaining the natural rate of unemployment includes frictional, structural, and cyclical unemployment. It then defines who is considered unemployed or not in the labor force. The unemployment rate is calculated as the percentage of the labor force that is unemployed. While the unemployment rate provides timely information, it has shortcomings as it excludes discouraged workers and those who are underemployed. The document also discusses other indicators like the labor force participation rate and how unemployment statistics vary by age, gender, and race.
Unemployment.ppt
The document discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, structural, classical, seasonal, and cyclical unemployment. It defines the unemployment rate as the number of unemployed people divided by the total labor force. Structural unemployment occurs when workers' skills do not match available jobs, and can be caused by new technology, consumer demand shifts, or globalization. Cyclical unemployment rises during economic downturns as spending decreases and companies lay off workers. The document also notes the private and social costs of unemployment as well as its relationship to business cycles and taxes.
Economics Final Report (1)
This document is a research report on unemployment in Pakistan that was submitted by four students to their professor. The report defines unemployment and discusses different types of unemployment including cyclical, structural, regional, classical, seasonal, frictional, and voluntary unemployment. It also provides examples of how unemployment rates are calculated. Additionally, the report examines reasons for unemployment in Pakistan such as low industrial growth, use of advanced technology, lack of vocational training programs, population growth, and more.
MACRO_7_Unemployment.pptx
The document discusses different types and measures of unemployment. It defines unemployment as when a person is able and willing to work but unable to find a job. There are three main types of unemployment: frictional unemployment due to voluntary job changes, cyclical unemployment that rises and falls with the economy, and structural unemployment due to changes in industry demand. The unemployment rate is calculated by dividing the number of unemployed by the total labor force, which excludes those not actively seeking work. Unemployment rates fluctuate over time and differ between demographic groups.
A Report on Unemployment - A basic study
This document discusses unemployment, including definitions, types, causes, and measurements. It defines unemployment as people without a job who are actively looking for work. Unemployment is measured through surveys and government records. The main types of unemployment are demand-deficient, structural, real wage, frictional, and voluntary. Causes of unemployment include economic downturns, technological changes, minimum wages, and union policies. High unemployment can harm the economy through reduced consumer spending. The document also discusses other unemployment concepts and how governments use unemployment statistics.

Human Resources Challenges July 2010
This document discusses the growing economic insecurity faced by many Americans due to factors such as long-term unemployment, declining incomes, and rising healthcare costs. It notes that over 20% of Americans experience a major loss of income each year, higher than in previous recessions, and that nearly half would struggle financially within two months of a loss of income. This economic uncertainty has implications for businesses, lowering productivity and increasing health issues among employees. It poses challenges for human resources departments in terms of employee engagement, training, and career development programs in an environment where job security and traditional incentives are diminished.
Human resources challenges v5 4 5-2012
The document discusses several challenges facing human resources professionals, including rising economic insecurity among employees due to factors like unemployment, medical expenses, and stagnant wages. It notes that long-term unemployment remains at historically high levels, with over 8 million jobs lost in the last recession and uncertainty about whether those jobs will return. This widespread insecurity and lack of opportunities is taking a toll on employee engagement, productivity, and commitment to their employers. The role of human resources is questioned in adapting to this new environment with diminished expectations and incentives among American workers.

The document discusses different types and causes of unemployment. It describes how the unemployment rate is calculated monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. There are always some frictional unemployed workers due to the time needed to search for suitable jobs. Additional unemployment is caused by minimum wage laws which reduce the quantity of jobs available. Unions can also contribute to unemployment by negotiating above-market wages for their members. Some firms choose efficiency wages above market rates to improve worker productivity and retention.
Assignment Advocacy for Social and Economic JusticeSocial work.docx
Assignment:
Advocacy for Social and Economic Justice
Social workers, like sociologists and economists, have an interest in accessing the front lines of social and economic injustice in society. Social workers are different, however, because of their inherent commitment to advocacy around these issues in the interest of advancing social change. Access to education, housing, and health care represent primary indicators of the social and economic circumstances of individuals. Social workers must examine access in those areas to get a clearer sense of social and economic justice among their populations.
For this Assignment, choose one of the cases in this week’s Readings. Select among the following issues related to social and economic injustice: education, housing, or health care.
By Day 7
, submit a 2- to 3-page paper in which you:
Describe the social or economic justice issue in the case study, explaining how this issue influences the subject(s) of the case study.
Identify at least two strategies you could use to address the issue when you encounter it among clients.
Explain how the strategies would contribute to positive outcomes for clients

G267685
This document discusses unemployment and its impact on the economy. It defines unemployment as people who are able and willing to work but cannot find employment. There are two main types of unemployment discussed: frictional unemployment which occurs due to imperfect information in the job market, and demand-deficient unemployment which occurs when there is a fall in aggregate demand. The document also examines unemployment rates among youth aged 15-24 and older workers aged 55-64 from 1995-2005 in Australia, finding that youth unemployment fell significantly while older worker unemployment also declined in 2005.
Assignment 2 LASA 1 Create Your Own Political PartyScenarioYou.docx
Assignment 2: LASA 1 Create Your Own Political Party
Scenario:
Your family has always been very politically active. From a young age, you have been politically aware. When you were young, you worked with your parents as they supported their political party and you even helped during campaigns for the candidates your parents supported. In college, you were a leader of the organization on campus that was part of the political party you supported. This could have been the Young Democrats or the Young Republicans or any college group that supported the political party of your choice. Until your exposure at college, you always supported the same political party as your parents, but then your views began to change and you developed your own ideas, ideals and expectations. While you continued to remain politically active, you have become more and more disillusioned with the current major and third parties and movements on the political scene, having studied all thoroughly. You have come to be completely discouraged by the state of the political process as it pertains to political parties. In your opinion, none of the major or third parties truly represents the best interests of the citizens, and you have decided to create your own political party.
Directions. In a 4-5 page Microsoft Word document, include the following:
Name your political party and evaluate why you have chosen that name.
Create a symbol for your political party and explain why you have chosen that symbol.
Create a slogan for your political party and justify why you have chosen that slogan.
Develop a platform for your political party. A platform is a written outline and explanation of what your party believes in and why. Your party can be a single-issue party, an ideological party, a splinter party, or a regular broad based political party. Your platform must have at least four positions under the following topics. Summarize each platform position.
Social Issues
Domestic Issues
Foreign Policy
Design a brochure or one-page flyer for your political party that you would hand out to voters to introduce and explain your party. In this flyer you want to include the essentials of what your party stands for, points of your platform, and the benefits of joining your party.
Project what demographic groups would vote for your political party and why. What demographic groups will your political party reach out to and seek support from?
Predict what regions of the country will support your political party and why? Or, what regions of country will your party win? Justify your claims.
Compare the areas of support with those of other political parties.
What main idea or belief is your political party based upon? Why? For example, in the 2008 election, the Democrats focused a lot on the economy and the war in Iraq.
Some links that may help you understand and assess current political parties, which in turn may help you to create your political party.

Assignment 2 LASA 1 Case Study of Behavioral DisordersIn this as.docx
Assignment 2: LASA 1: Case Study of Behavioral Disorders
In this assignment, you will analyze a fictional scenario and identify the possible disorders involved. All the information needed for this assignment can be found in the textbook.
Review the following vignettes:
Behavioral Disorder—Male Vignette
Joe, a thirteen-year-old Asian-American boy, is enrolled in ninth grade at a public high school located in the inner city of a large metropolitan area. Since kindergarten, his teachers have reported increasing levels of concern about his behavior. In elementary school, he was described by his teachers as immature and argumentative with authority figures. In middle school, his behavior escalated to include verbal and physical aggression toward classmates.
Recent reports indicate that he disrupts the classroom often by arguing with his teacher, talking excessively and loudly, and disobeying classroom rules. During breaks or when outside the classroom, Joe associates with a group of boys who tend to get into trouble. He tends to become angry often and easily and has gotten into many fights. Some of his classmates have reported that Joe has threatened them. He does not seem to feel guilty when he gets into trouble. He rarely finishes his schoolwork and is getting poor grades. Beginning this year, Joe’s teacher has reported that he seems easily distracted.
Testing completed by the school psychologist indicates that Joe is intelligent and creative. Results do not support the presence of a learning disability or a developmental disability. The school psychologist indicates that Joe lacks sufficient motivation or desire to complete his work thoroughly or carefully. Joe’s parents report that he refuses to follow rules at home, is often angry, and tends to blame his siblings when he gets into trouble.
Behavioral Disorder—Female Vignette
Maria is an eight-year-old daughter of Mexican-American parents who recently immigrated to the United States. They speak some English, and Maria is fluent in both English and Spanish. She is enrolled in third grade at the local public elementary school. Since second grade, her parents have reported concerns about her difficulty in paying attention or maintaining her concentration. They indicate that she has significant difficulty in completing her homework because she daydreams and is easily distracted by sounds and activities in the home. Maria has the same problem in the classroom, so she often has to bring unfinished classroom work home to complete. Maria gets frustrated at school and during homework time, often stating that she “can’t do” the work and referring to herself as “dumb” or “not smart enough.”
Maria’s frustration with her schoolwork has led to some irritability lately, as well as some desire to avoid school. She tends to have more of a temper at home recently and expresses hopelessness at times. She is most content playing soccer or video games. She tends to concentrate very well during those activitie.

Assignment 2 Innovation and Communication PresentationListed belo.docx
Assignment 2: Innovation and Communication Presentation
Listed below are the names of some of the world’s top technology-related innovators. They have also been called leaders, entrepreneurs, disrupters, or good old-fashioned trouble-makers. They have gone against the odds, rattling stale industries to build new ones. Recognize their names? Not likely, though you may instantly recognize their product, technology, or scientific inventions, which have made headlines. However, their success would not be possible without the effective management of team members. For this assignment, you are required to choose two people from the list and create a PowerPoint presentation.
First, choose two leaders from the list below:
Caleb Chung
Cory Booker
Craig Venter
Dan Olschwang
Diane Greene
Hjalmar Winbladh
Jeremy Stoppelman
Mark Gorton
Russell Simmons
Sunil Shaunak
Now, respond to the following:
Utilize your research and identify the methods these innovators or leaders are using to communicate through technology in an effort to remain relevant in their industries.
Explain how technology has advanced each of their businesses, leading to growth.
Determine if innovative products, such as Google X, iWatch, or the new Cardboard Bike, can be linked to transformational or transactional leadership. Defend your position.
Self-managed teams are often used to hide inventions from public view. Utilizing your research, identify ways managers and project leaders working under constraints can accomplish this.
Develop a 4–6-slide presentation in PowerPoint format. Include detailed speaker notes in your presentation. Utilize at least two scholarly sources (in addition to your textbook) to complete your research, referencing sources within the text and at the end in a reference list. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M4_A2.ppt.
Make sure you write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship through accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Assignment 2: Internal Environmental Scan/Organizational Assessment
This section provides the opportunity to develop your course project. Conducting an internal environmental scan or organizational assessment, provides the ability to put the strategy audit together.
In this module, you will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the internal environment at your business unit or organization you are working with for this project, also known as an organizational assessment, and present your findings in a report. In your report, you should analyze the operating characteristics and assets of your business unit.
The SWOT model is one of the most common business tools used during organizational assessment. Another is developing a balanced scorecard based on a prescribed or planned set of performance objectives that will be measured and evaluated regularly. In this assignment, based on the external environmental scan you conducted in
M2: Assignment 2
and the internal environmental scan in this assignment, you will develop a SWOT analysis and a balanced strategic scorecard.
Part I: Internal Environmental Scan (2–3 pages)
The internal environmental scan or organizational assessment should include the following:
Mission, vision, and values:
Assess the organization’s understanding of the mission, vision, and values, and how they relate the business strategy. Is there consensus on the mission and vision of the organization? What are the shared values of the organization? What are the behaviors espoused by these values?
Strategy clarification:
Assess the organization’s understanding of the business strategy through the interview with a mid-level or senior manager. Assess his or her understanding and agreement of the business unit’s value proposition, market position, and competitive advantage.
Cultural assessment:
Explain the unwritten rules and shared values that govern behaviors in the organization. Do they act as enablers or blockers to the strategy? For example, is there a culture of information sharing and collaboration that enables the organization to respond quickly across structural boundaries to solve problems for customers? On the other hand, do groups not share important information through informal mechanisms, thus slowing response times?
Value chain analysis:
Identify the primary (direct) and support (indirect) activities that create and deliver your product or service to your customers. Assess each activity’s contribution to competitive advantage through cost or differentiation. Identify any areas where the business may be at a competitive disadvantage.
Summary of findings:
Using these different analyses, identify the organizational strengths and weaknesses as they relate to the business strategy. Organizational strengths are assets, capabilities, and resources that contribute directly to the organization’s strategic fit, differentiation, and competitive advantage relative to competing organizations. Organizational weaknesses are chara.

Ppt on unemployment
This document defines unemployment and discusses its various types, causes, costs, measurement, and solutions. It defines unemployment as a situation where capable and willing workers cannot find employment. The main types of unemployment discussed are frictional, structural, cyclical, and seasonal unemployment. Causes of unemployment mentioned include population growth, lack of job opportunities, seasonal factors, and slow industry development. Costs of unemployment include individual financial issues and societal underutilization of resources. Unemployment is typically measured by calculating the unemployment rate as a percentage of the unemployed workforce versus the total labor force. Proposed solutions include changing investment patterns, encouraging small businesses, subsidizing employment, and reorienting education.
UNEMPLOYMENT work ( slides).pptx
Unemployment is measured as the number of people willing and able to work but unable to find employment. There are different types of unemployment including cyclical, frictional, and structural. Theories of unemployment include the Keynesian and classical theories. Keynesian theory states that aggregate demand determines employment while classical theory says real wages impact employment. Unemployment has costs like reduced income and increased dependence. The NAIRU is the lowest unemployment rate that avoids inflation increases. Factors like productivity and benefits influence the NAIRU, which is important for policymakers to consider.
Moonlighting as ‘Coping Strategy’ for Irregular Payment of Salaries in Nigeri...
Moonlighting, a latent but real phenomenon in the Nigerian economic experience is being
considered alongside irregular workers’ monthly salary in Nigeria which has been on since 2015. Moonlighting
- keeping several jobs simultaneously under different employers as an employee, is more real in the western
world due to increasing legal control. In general, it is referred to as ‘hustling’, ‘multiple runs’, extra pursuits, or
‘PiPis’ in several contexts. Data was collected from 323 respondents from 4 Local Government Area
secretariats in Ekiti state through multistage sampling procedure. Statistics indicate a significant relationship [r
(323) = 0.47, p < .05] between workers’ irregular monthly salaries and the practice of moonlighting among
these public servants in Ekiti state. The affinity between irregular monthly salary and moonlighting has
significantly impacted job commitment deficit [r (323) = 0.47, p < .05]. Employees who experience high
irregularities in their salary tend to engage more in moonlighting (Mean=17.71; Std.Dev=4.96), than those who
have little experience of salary irregularities (Mean=15.77; Std.Dev=4.01). Employees who engage more in
moonlighting tend to be less committed (Mean=19.64; SD=3.77), in comparison with those who are less
engaged in moonlighting (Mean=20.30; Std.Dev=3.56). The study has shown that moonlighting has continued
as a habit and a strategy for mitigating the negative impact of irregular payment of workers’ salary among LG
employees. Increasing focus of labour law in that direction might be necessary to prevent its negative impact
on workers’ commitment and productivity in Ekiti State
lec10 unemployment.pptx
The document discusses how unemployment is defined and calculated. It begins by explaining the natural rate of unemployment includes frictional, structural, and cyclical unemployment. It then defines who is considered unemployed or not in the labor force. The unemployment rate is calculated as the percentage of the labor force that is unemployed. While the unemployment rate provides timely information, it has shortcomings as it excludes discouraged workers and those who are underemployed. The document also discusses other indicators like the labor force participation rate and how unemployment statistics vary by age, gender, and race.
Unemployment.ppt
The document discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, structural, classical, seasonal, and cyclical unemployment. It defines the unemployment rate as the number of unemployed people divided by the total labor force. Structural unemployment occurs when workers' skills do not match available jobs, and can be caused by new technology, consumer demand shifts, or globalization. Cyclical unemployment rises during economic downturns as spending decreases and companies lay off workers. The document also notes the private and social costs of unemployment as well as its relationship to business cycles and taxes.
Economics Final Report (1)
This document is a research report on unemployment in Pakistan that was submitted by four students to their professor. The report defines unemployment and discusses different types of unemployment including cyclical, structural, regional, classical, seasonal, frictional, and voluntary unemployment. It also provides examples of how unemployment rates are calculated. Additionally, the report examines reasons for unemployment in Pakistan such as low industrial growth, use of advanced technology, lack of vocational training programs, population growth, and more.
MACRO_7_Unemployment.pptx
The document discusses different types and measures of unemployment. It defines unemployment as when a person is able and willing to work but unable to find a job. There are three main types of unemployment: frictional unemployment due to voluntary job changes, cyclical unemployment that rises and falls with the economy, and structural unemployment due to changes in industry demand. The unemployment rate is calculated by dividing the number of unemployed by the total labor force, which excludes those not actively seeking work. Unemployment rates fluctuate over time and differ between demographic groups.
A Report on Unemployment - A basic study
This document discusses unemployment, including definitions, types, causes, and measurements. It defines unemployment as people without a job who are actively looking for work. Unemployment is measured through surveys and government records. The main types of unemployment are demand-deficient, structural, real wage, frictional, and voluntary. Causes of unemployment include economic downturns, technological changes, minimum wages, and union policies. High unemployment can harm the economy through reduced consumer spending. The document also discusses other unemployment concepts and how governments use unemployment statistics.

Human Resources Challenges July 2010
This document discusses the growing economic insecurity faced by many Americans due to factors such as long-term unemployment, declining incomes, and rising healthcare costs. It notes that over 20% of Americans experience a major loss of income each year, higher than in previous recessions, and that nearly half would struggle financially within two months of a loss of income. This economic uncertainty has implications for businesses, lowering productivity and increasing health issues among employees. It poses challenges for human resources departments in terms of employee engagement, training, and career development programs in an environment where job security and traditional incentives are diminished.
Human resources challenges v5 4 5-2012
The document discusses several challenges facing human resources professionals, including rising economic insecurity among employees due to factors like unemployment, medical expenses, and stagnant wages. It notes that long-term unemployment remains at historically high levels, with over 8 million jobs lost in the last recession and uncertainty about whether those jobs will return. This widespread insecurity and lack of opportunities is taking a toll on employee engagement, productivity, and commitment to their employers. The role of human resources is questioned in adapting to this new environment with diminished expectations and incentives among American workers.

The document discusses different types and causes of unemployment. It describes how the unemployment rate is calculated monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. There are always some frictional unemployed workers due to the time needed to search for suitable jobs. Additional unemployment is caused by minimum wage laws which reduce the quantity of jobs available. Unions can also contribute to unemployment by negotiating above-market wages for their members. Some firms choose efficiency wages above market rates to improve worker productivity and retention.
Assignment Advocacy for Social and Economic JusticeSocial work.docx
Assignment:
Advocacy for Social and Economic Justice
Social workers, like sociologists and economists, have an interest in accessing the front lines of social and economic injustice in society. Social workers are different, however, because of their inherent commitment to advocacy around these issues in the interest of advancing social change. Access to education, housing, and health care represent primary indicators of the social and economic circumstances of individuals. Social workers must examine access in those areas to get a clearer sense of social and economic justice among their populations.
For this Assignment, choose one of the cases in this week’s Readings. Select among the following issues related to social and economic injustice: education, housing, or health care.
By Day 7
, submit a 2- to 3-page paper in which you:
Describe the social or economic justice issue in the case study, explaining how this issue influences the subject(s) of the case study.
Identify at least two strategies you could use to address the issue when you encounter it among clients.
Explain how the strategies would contribute to positive outcomes for clients

This document discusses unemployment and its impact on the economy. It defines unemployment as people who are able and willing to work but cannot find employment. There are two main types of unemployment discussed: frictional unemployment which occurs due to imperfect information in the job market, and demand-deficient unemployment which occurs when there is a fall in aggregate demand. The document also examines unemployment rates among youth aged 15-24 and older workers aged 55-64 from 1995-2005 in Australia, finding that youth unemployment fell significantly while older worker unemployment also declined in 2005.

Assignment 2 LASA 1 Create Your Own Political PartyScenarioYou.docx
Assignment 2: LASA 1 Create Your Own Political Party
Scenario:
Your family has always been very politically active. From a young age, you have been politically aware. When you were young, you worked with your parents as they supported their political party and you even helped during campaigns for the candidates your parents supported. In college, you were a leader of the organization on campus that was part of the political party you supported. This could have been the Young Democrats or the Young Republicans or any college group that supported the political party of your choice. Until your exposure at college, you always supported the same political party as your parents, but then your views began to change and you developed your own ideas, ideals and expectations. While you continued to remain politically active, you have become more and more disillusioned with the current major and third parties and movements on the political scene, having studied all thoroughly. You have come to be completely discouraged by the state of the political process as it pertains to political parties. In your opinion, none of the major or third parties truly represents the best interests of the citizens, and you have decided to create your own political party.
Directions. In a 4-5 page Microsoft Word document, include the following:
Name your political party and evaluate why you have chosen that name.
Create a symbol for your political party and explain why you have chosen that symbol.
Create a slogan for your political party and justify why you have chosen that slogan.
Develop a platform for your political party. A platform is a written outline and explanation of what your party believes in and why. Your party can be a single-issue party, an ideological party, a splinter party, or a regular broad based political party. Your platform must have at least four positions under the following topics. Summarize each platform position.
Social Issues
Domestic Issues
Foreign Policy
Design a brochure or one-page flyer for your political party that you would hand out to voters to introduce and explain your party. In this flyer you want to include the essentials of what your party stands for, points of your platform, and the benefits of joining your party.
Project what demographic groups would vote for your political party and why. What demographic groups will your political party reach out to and seek support from?
Predict what regions of the country will support your political party and why? Or, what regions of country will your party win? Justify your claims.
Compare the areas of support with those of other political parties.
What main idea or belief is your political party based upon? Why? For example, in the 2008 election, the Democrats focused a lot on the economy and the war in Iraq.
Some links that may help you understand and assess current political parties, which in turn may help you to create your political party.

Assignment 2 LASA 1 Case Study of Behavioral DisordersIn this as.docx
Assignment 2: LASA 1: Case Study of Behavioral Disorders
In this assignment, you will analyze a fictional scenario and identify the possible disorders involved. All the information needed for this assignment can be found in the textbook.
Review the following vignettes:
Behavioral Disorder—Male Vignette
Joe, a thirteen-year-old Asian-American boy, is enrolled in ninth grade at a public high school located in the inner city of a large metropolitan area. Since kindergarten, his teachers have reported increasing levels of concern about his behavior. In elementary school, he was described by his teachers as immature and argumentative with authority figures. In middle school, his behavior escalated to include verbal and physical aggression toward classmates.
Recent reports indicate that he disrupts the classroom often by arguing with his teacher, talking excessively and loudly, and disobeying classroom rules. During breaks or when outside the classroom, Joe associates with a group of boys who tend to get into trouble. He tends to become angry often and easily and has gotten into many fights. Some of his classmates have reported that Joe has threatened them. He does not seem to feel guilty when he gets into trouble. He rarely finishes his schoolwork and is getting poor grades. Beginning this year, Joe’s teacher has reported that he seems easily distracted.
Testing completed by the school psychologist indicates that Joe is intelligent and creative. Results do not support the presence of a learning disability or a developmental disability. The school psychologist indicates that Joe lacks sufficient motivation or desire to complete his work thoroughly or carefully. Joe’s parents report that he refuses to follow rules at home, is often angry, and tends to blame his siblings when he gets into trouble.
Behavioral Disorder—Female Vignette
Maria is an eight-year-old daughter of Mexican-American parents who recently immigrated to the United States. They speak some English, and Maria is fluent in both English and Spanish. She is enrolled in third grade at the local public elementary school. Since second grade, her parents have reported concerns about her difficulty in paying attention or maintaining her concentration. They indicate that she has significant difficulty in completing her homework because she daydreams and is easily distracted by sounds and activities in the home. Maria has the same problem in the classroom, so she often has to bring unfinished classroom work home to complete. Maria gets frustrated at school and during homework time, often stating that she “can’t do” the work and referring to herself as “dumb” or “not smart enough.”
Maria’s frustration with her schoolwork has led to some irritability lately, as well as some desire to avoid school. She tends to have more of a temper at home recently and expresses hopelessness at times. She is most content playing soccer or video games. She tends to concentrate very well during those activitie.

Assignment 2: Innovation and Communication Presentation
Listed below are the names of some of the world’s top technology-related innovators. They have also been called leaders, entrepreneurs, disrupters, or good old-fashioned trouble-makers. They have gone against the odds, rattling stale industries to build new ones. Recognize their names? Not likely, though you may instantly recognize their product, technology, or scientific inventions, which have made headlines. However, their success would not be possible without the effective management of team members. For this assignment, you are required to choose two people from the list and create a PowerPoint presentation.
First, choose two leaders from the list below:
Caleb Chung
Cory Booker
Craig Venter
Dan Olschwang
Diane Greene
Hjalmar Winbladh
Jeremy Stoppelman
Mark Gorton
Russell Simmons
Sunil Shaunak
Now, respond to the following:
Utilize your research and identify the methods these innovators or leaders are using to communicate through technology in an effort to remain relevant in their industries.
Explain how technology has advanced each of their businesses, leading to growth.
Determine if innovative products, such as Google X, iWatch, or the new Cardboard Bike, can be linked to transformational or transactional leadership. Defend your position.
Self-managed teams are often used to hide inventions from public view. Utilizing your research, identify ways managers and project leaders working under constraints can accomplish this.
Develop a 4–6-slide presentation in PowerPoint format. Include detailed speaker notes in your presentation. Utilize at least two scholarly sources (in addition to your textbook) to complete your research, referencing sources within the text and at the end in a reference list. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M4_A2.ppt.

Assignment 2 Internal Environmental ScanOrganizational Assessment.docx
Assignment 2: Internal Environmental Scan/Organizational Assessment
This section provides the opportunity to develop your course project. Conducting an internal environmental scan or organizational assessment, provides the ability to put the strategy audit together.
In this module, you will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the internal environment at your business unit or organization you are working with for this project, also known as an organizational assessment, and present your findings in a report. In your report, you should analyze the operating characteristics and assets of your business unit.
The SWOT model is one of the most common business tools used during organizational assessment. Another is developing a balanced scorecard based on a prescribed or planned set of performance objectives that will be measured and evaluated regularly. In this assignment, based on the external environmental scan you conducted in
M2: Assignment 2
and the internal environmental scan in this assignment, you will develop a SWOT analysis and a balanced strategic scorecard.
Part I: Internal Environmental Scan (2–3 pages)
The internal environmental scan or organizational assessment should include the following:
Mission, vision, and values:
Assess the organization’s understanding of the mission, vision, and values, and how they relate the business strategy. Is there consensus on the mission and vision of the organization? What are the shared values of the organization? What are the behaviors espoused by these values?
Strategy clarification:
Assess the organization’s understanding of the business strategy through the interview with a mid-level or senior manager. Assess his or her understanding and agreement of the business unit’s value proposition, market position, and competitive advantage.
Cultural assessment:
Explain the unwritten rules and shared values that govern behaviors in the organization. Do they act as enablers or blockers to the strategy? For example, is there a culture of information sharing and collaboration that enables the organization to respond quickly across structural boundaries to solve problems for customers? On the other hand, do groups not share important information through informal mechanisms, thus slowing response times?
Value chain analysis:
Identify the primary (direct) and support (indirect) activities that create and deliver your product or service to your customers. Assess each activity’s contribution to competitive advantage through cost or differentiation. Identify any areas where the business may be at a competitive disadvantage.
Summary of findings:
Using these different analyses, identify the organizational strengths and weaknesses as they relate to the business strategy. Organizational strengths are assets, capabilities, and resources that contribute directly to the organization’s strategic fit, differentiation, and competitive advantage relative to competing organizations. Organizational weaknesses are chara.

Assignment 2: Internet-Based Psychological Interventions
Due
Tuesday, November 24, 2015
.
With so many individuals using the Internet today, the psychology of the individual, the family, the community, and the society has changed. Some might argue that the traditional psychological theories cannot be applied and therefore psychology as an entire field needs to be revamped to incorporate the impact and the application of internet technology. As a student completing a bachelor’s degree in psychology, your future career will undoubtedly incorporate the use of the Internet in very new ways. Read the following article from the AUO Library:
Ritterband, L. M., Gonder-Frederick, L., Cox, D. J., Clifton, A. D., West,
R. W., & Borowitz, S. M. (2003). Internet interventions: In review,
in use, and into the future.
Professional Psychology: Research and
Practice
, 34(5)
, 527-534.
Identify a problem area or psychological issue that could benefit from the use of an internet intervention. Now, using what you learned from the article, propose an internet intervention using the following guidelines:
What problem area would the internet intervention address?
Provide a general description of the proposed internet intervention.
How would the effectiveness of the proposed intervention be tested?
What are any legal and ethical issues related to the proposed intervention? Include the specific APA ethical standard(s) in your response.

Assignment 2 Field Observation Purpose The purpose of this .docx
Assignment 2: Field Observation
Purpose:
The purpose of this
two-step
exercise is for you to conduct inductive and deductive research using qualitative methods.
Note: it is important that you conduct the observations as two distinct events during this class; ‘recalling’ past observations is not the same as purposefully observing your surroundings from a sociological perspective, and applying two different types of reasoning to one observation will not be ‘truthful’ or successful.
The purpose of this exercise if for you to observe one
social setting
or
social artifact
to begin to detect patterns in human behavior – observance of norms and potentially behaviors that deviate from the norm. This week’s exercise includes two parts.
First
, without any prep work, you will need to go to
one
public
place (or conduct content analysis with your social artifact) and observe the people/artifact for
25 minutes
. Social Setting: Note people’s behavior, their demeanor, their reactions/interactions to/with each other. Social artifact: from second to second (for TV), or page to page (for print), Note themes, sounds (i.. music), texture of page (i.e. ads in magazine), etc.
Second
, you will develop a research design with research problem, hypothesis and operational definitions for variables; then you will conduct
another 25 minutes
of observations.
Disclaimer
Originality of attachments will be verified by Turnitin. Both you and your instructor will receive the results.
Part 1
1) Choose whether or not you will be conducting non-participant observation in a social setting, or content analysis of a social artifact
a. Social setting: this should be a public place such as a park, mall, restaurant, etc.
b. Social artifact: this may be ads in a particular magazine; one television show, a time-block of commercials, etc.
2) For your inductive approach, you will simply choose a time and location/artifact for where you are going to conduct your observations
3)
a. Social Setting: Go to the specified location and proceed with your observations.
i. You must be a keen social observer; a ‘peeping Tom’ in the sociological sense. Take handwritten (recommended) and/or mental notes of:
1. details about your chosen location (time of day, lighting, furniture, plants, sounds, temperature, smell, vibe/energy, etc)
2. the people around you, not only their behavior but general information about their sociodemographic characteristics (age, race/ethnicity, gender, SES, etc);
3. your thoughts and feelings while making observations
Social Artifact: At a specified time (i.e. when a particular show is), carefully observe your social artifact
i.
Content analysis provides a sustained, systematic way to observe and measure the portrayal of that reality, as opposed to the quick, impressio.
Assignment 2 Human Resources and Staffing Crisis at Blumberg’s Nurs.docx
Assignment 2: Human Resources and Staffing Crisis at Blumberg’s Nursing Home
Due Week 10 and worth 250 points
Blumberg’s Nursing Home (BNH) is a 100-bed Medicare and Medicaid certified facility in suburban Philadelphia, PA. The administrator recently terminated the facility’s Director of Nursing (DON), receptionist, and dietary aid for inappropriate conduct. They had all been involved in purchasing and using illegal substances on facility grounds. Facility staff, as well as many of the more lucid residents, have found out about the incident.
The charge nurse has been appointed interim DON. The human resource manager has sent a memo to all staff informing them of a mandatory staff meeting to discuss BNH’s code of ethics and to provide additional training on workplace culture. Because federal law requires that there be at least one (1) registered nurse on duty for a minimum of eight (8) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, and that the DON must be a registered nurse (RN) – which the interim DON is not – BNH is out of compliance.
Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you:
Assess the immediate staffing needs at BNH. Prioritize the order in which BNH should fill the main unstaffed position(s). Justify your selection(s).
Considering the reason behind the termination of the employees, formulate a human resources policy that addresses inappropriate conduct in the workplace, the process of reporting inappropriate conduct, and the consequences of violating the policy. Explain your rationale.
Per the text, an effective long-term care facility administrator must have both leadership and management skills. Propose at least one (1) way the administrator in this case must demonstrate quality leadership skills, and one (1) way the administrator must demonstrate quality management skills in the aftermath of this crisis so as to improve and maintain staff and resident morale.
Recommend a strategy for BNH to use the Quality Indicator Survey to improve administrative practices and ensure future compliance at the facility. Justify your recommendation.
Use at least three (3) quality academic resources.
Note

Assignment 2 FederalismThe system of federalism was institute.docx
Assignment 2: Federalism
The system of federalism was instituted with the writing and authorization of the Constitution in 1787. In dividing power between states and the national government, federalism has undergone challenges to the placement of power. Should power reside primarily in national or in state government? The Civil War was the most dramatic challenge to the placement of power. Southern states argued, under the leadership of John C. Calhoun, that states’ power superseded national power, while northern states, under the leadership of President Abraham Lincoln, stressed the need for union under the leadership and direction of the national government.
In the more than two hundred years since the Constitution’s adoption, there have been many changes to the meaning of federalism, with power shifting between state and national governments. In the twentieth century, the shifts of power became largely associated with the national government’s ability to provide increased funding sources. With more funding available, the national government has expanded its impact on all areas of state governments. This increased power has had many advocates and many detractors, each with strong justifications.
Research federalism using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet. Write a paper on federalism. Structure your paper as follows:
Define federalism.
Explain three advantages of federalism.
Explain three disadvantages of federalism.
Identify and describe at least two ways in which American federalism has changed since the ratification of the Constitution.
Discuss one advantage or disadvantage of federalism most relevant to you.
Describe the relationship between contemporary politics and trends in the size and power of the federal government.

Assignment 2 Human Resource and Organization PerformanceEffective.docx
Assignment 2: Human Resource and Organization Performance
Effective management of human resources contributes to mission accomplishment and vision achievement. Given that a vision is the future preferred status for an organization, it is critical to align people with the processes and resources necessary to propel the organization forward. As easy as this may seem to the uninformed, there are many challenges as pressure is applied to consistently reduce costs while delivering superior goods and or services.
Whether you are part of a small entrepreneurial start up, a civil servant with a mature and large government entity, or a volunteer for a non-profit organization, someone is fulfilling the role of HR oversight. No matter what type of organization you are working for the HR functions typically associated with building human capital are: analysis and design of work, recruitment and selection, training and development, performance management, compensation and benefits, employee relations, personnel policies, compliance with laws, and strategies for supporting the mission.
This assignment is designed to integrate the reflection of personal experience, and the information covered in the textbook. Assuming you are Juanita, answer the following questions:
How can human resource management strategically contribute to the organization’s mission and vision on a daily basis?
What skills might Juanita have to develop to better fulfill her role?
How might Juanita engage line managers to become more involved in what has traditionally been HR’s function in this organization? Why?
Which aspects of human resource management would she want to entrust to specialists? Why?

Assignment 2 Discouraged Workers and the EconomyA discouraged wo.docx
- 1. Assignment 2: Discouraged Workers and the Economy A “discouraged worker” is an individual without a job who has a desire to work; however, the worker has not actively searched for a job within the last six months, because the worker believes that there are no jobs available. Such a worker is not included in the official unemployment count. Consider a scenario where discouraged workers are now included in the official unemployment rate during a recessionary period in the economy. Which of the three types of unemployment—frictional, structural, or cyclical—do you believe that these unemployed workers would most closely qualify for? How about during a period of economic expansion? Explain your answers and include examples. Next, discuss and explain how including discouraged workers in the official unemployment rate would affect both the federal deficit and the national debt. Include examples to support your conclusions.
