· APA Reference
· Type of Research
Please specify the type of research (e.g., quantitative, qualitative, meta-analysis) and research design, if applicable (e.g., correlational design, causal comparative design, phenomenology).
· Independent and Dependent Variables or Variable of Interest (if applicable)
If the article is quantitative, identify the independent and dependent variables. If the article is qualitative, identify the phenomenon/phenomena.
· Research Question(s) and Hypothesis(es)
State the Research Question(s) and/or Hypothesis(es).
Example: There is no stated hypothesis. 2 research questions are proposed: (a) “What is the relationship between the sense of community and student learning?” and (b) “Do the sense of community and learning differ by culture in an asynchronous learning network (ALN) environment?” It is implied that the researchers believe that culture will influence the students’ sense of community and learning. It is implied that there will be an achievement gap between African-American students and Caucasian students participating in online courses.
· Sample
Briefly describe the sample and sampling type. Include the number of participants. Also consider including race and gender.
Example: The subjects were 108 educators (96 females, 12 males; 40 African Americans, 64 Caucasians, 4 others) enrolled in an online Doctor of Education program. The convenience sample was taken from 4 course sections, which had a 96% volunteer rate.
· Methodology
Instruments:
Identify the measuring instrument and reliability and validity of the instrument, if discussed.
Example: The Classroom Community Scale (CCS; Rovai, 2002) was used to measure social community (connectedness) and learning community (learning and satisfaction). As purported, the CCS has high construct validity.
· Results
Results and Conclusions/Primary Findings:
State major results and conclusions.
Example: For the correlational design, the results suggested a positive correlation between all 3 community variables and the 2 learning variables in the ALN environment. Since the findings indicated that there was a weak relationship between perceived learning and course grades, this suggests the learning variables captured 2 different aspects of student learning. In addition, results revealed large variability of classroom community among the students sampled in the 4 course sections. This indicated that individual traits of students may impact feelings about social community. For the causal-comparative, the results revealed that the African-American group scored significantly lower than the Caucasian group on each of the 5 dependent variables. This suggests that there is an achievement gap between African-Americans and Caucasians in graduate ALN programs. This gap also extended to the sense of community.

A. Background
The Western Connecticut State University Alumni Association allows students and Western Connecticut State University Alumni to develop mutually beneficial relationships by raising awareness of alumni philanthropy and fundraising. This association allows students and alumni to build lasting relationships with each other, as well as students, staff and the greater Danbury area.
Members of the association receive benefits and privileges including invitation to special WCSU and alumni events, career services, Alumni travel program, insurance saving programs, as well as U-Save membership and business. The purpose of the Alumni Association is to give alumni resources to stay connected to their roots at Western Connecticut State University through a number of different events on and off campus, allowing alumni of any age the opportunity to meet through a mutual interest and create personal as well as business bonds.
Problem:
Currently, the WCSU Alumni Association is struggling with engaging and encouraging young alumni to participate in alumni events. The lack of responsiveness from young alumni ranges from students who graduated 2010 to those who will be graduating this May 2020. Currently, the WCSU Alumni Association is having trouble identifying the reason for the lack of response from younger alumni. The Alumni Association is unable to identify what events will attract young alumni in order to engage them to the association. Some factors could be that alumni have moved far from the University, they’ve started families and it’s hard to come back when they have responsibilities, they aren’t receiving the information to a relevant source. These are just ideas not actual facts so the association wants to know the reasoning behind the lack of students that aren’t returning. This way they can find ways that would interest students to return.
Marketing Mix:
Price:
Most of the events the WCSU Alumni Association holds are at a discounted price for off campus outings. The events held on campus are either free for members or at a discounted, affordable price.
Product:
The products being offered are the events held by the Alumni Association. The Alumni Association are the ones planning and holding the events that occur either on or off campus. Events are not solely focused on any one specific major, or even involving a specific theme or topic relating to a major. The events are held in order to bring together alumni with similar interests, such as “Sip & Sculpt '', WCSU Opera, or Alumni Golf Tournament.
Place:
Majority of the events the WCSU Alumni Association holds are located on campus in Danbury, CT. However, off-campus events are offered as well. Although off-campus events may include a cost, it is at an outstandingly affordable cost and provides tickets and transportation to a given event.
Promotion:
The Alumni Association promotes events through email, social media, word of mouth, WOW Alumn.

Abstract
Background: Speech pathologists are confronted by ethical issues when they need
to make decisions about client care, address team conflict, and fulfil the range of
duties and responsibilities required of health professionals. However, there has
been little research into the specific nature of ethical dilemmas experienced by
speech pathologists and whether the nature of ethical conflict changes as they
acquire experience in the professional workforce. Speech pathologists’
perceptions of ethical issues provide insight into factors impacting upon quality
of care in contemporary healthcare settings.
Aims: To describe, compare, and contrast the nature of ethical dilemmas
identified by new graduate and experienced speech pathologists.
Methods & Procedures: A narrative methodology was used to explore the ethical
dilemmasthatparticipantsexperiencedintheprofessionalworkplace.Primarydata
were collected through in-depth interviews with ten new graduate and
ten experienced speechpathologists in theirwork settings.During these interviews,
participantswereaskedto‘tell thestory’ofethicaldilemmasthey identifiedatwork.
Outcomes & Results: An ethical story was constructed for each participant based
upon keywords and concepts from interview transcripts. These keywords and
conceptswerecodedintogroupthemesthatreflectedthenatureofethicaldilemmas
experienced by new graduate versus experienced speech pathologists. Comparing
the results of thematic analysis for both groups of participant revealed similarities
and differences in ethical dilemmas identified by new graduate and experienced
health professionals.

Research Report #2: Emerging Issues Risk Analysis and Report
Scenario
The Entertainment Team (ET -- part of Resort Operations at Padgett-Beale, Inc.) is excited about a new event management platform and is ready to go to contract with the vendor. This platform is a cloud-based service that provides end-to-end management for events (conferences, concerts, festivals). The head of Marketing & Media (M&M) is on board and strongly supports the use of this system. M&M believes that the data collection and analysis capabilities of the system will prove extremely valuable for its efforts. Resort Operations (RO) also believes that the technology could be leveraged to provide additional capabilities for managing participation in hotel sponsored “kids programs” and related children-only events.
For an additional fee, the event management platform's vendor will provide customized RFID bands to be worn by attendees.
The RFID bands and RFID readers use near-field communications to identify the wearer and complete the desired transactions (e.g. record a booth visit, make a purchase, vote for a favorite activity or performer, etc.).
The RFID bands have unique identifiers embedded in the band that allow tracking of attendees (admittance, where they go within the venue, what they "like," how long they stay in a given location, etc.).
The RFID bands can also be connected to an attendee's credit card or debit card account and then used by the attendee to make purchases for food, beverages, and souvenirs.
For children, the RFID bands can be paired with a parent’s band, loaded with allergy information, and have a parent specified spending limit or spending preauthorization tied to the parent’s credit card account.
The head of Corporate IT has tentatively given approval for this outsourcing because it leverages cloud-computing capabilities. IT's approval is very important to supporters of this the acquisition because of the company's ban on "Shadow IT." (Only Corporate IT is allowed to issue contracts for information technology related purchases, acquisitions, and outsourcing contracts.) Corporate IT also supports a cloud-based platform since this reduces the amount of infrastructure which IT must support and manage directly.
The project has come to a screeching halt, however, due to an objection by the Chief Financial Officer. The CFO has asked that the IT Governance Board investigate this project and obtain more information about the benefits and risks of using RFID bands linked to an external system which processes transactions and authorizations of mobile / cashless payments for goods and services. The CFO is concerned that the company’s PCI Compliance status may be adversely affected.
The Chief Privacy Officer has also expressed an objection about this project. The CPO is concerned about the privacy implications of tracking both movement of individuals and the tracking of their purchasing behaviors.
The IT Governance Board agreed that the conce.

It was not known how criminal offenders perceive and mentally represent the world around them
It was not known what role perception plays in an individual’s potential to commit crime
The basis of Cognitive theory
Cognitive is defined as an ability to process information: Cognition has to do with one's ability to learn information quickly, memorize, and understand information they receive. Therefore, cognitive theories of crime fall under the psychological theories of criminal behavior. It's important to know that there are different theories that attempt to explain acts of criminal behavior.
Cognitive-behavioral theory combines the principles of social and developmental psychology and those of experimental-clinical psychology. The theory, applied to crime and delinquency, proposes that social behavior is learned. To understand why and how people commit crimes, psychologists and sociologists often study, analyze, and develop explanations of why these behaviors exist. Cognitive theory is one of many psychological theories of criminal behavior. Cognitive theories of crime explain criminal behavior as a defect in moral thinking, thought processes, and mental development. Cognitive theories focus on how we perceive the world around us, how we think, and the factors that influence our mental development (family upbringing, parental modeling, personality, intelligence). These theories help to explain how we develop morally in our thought process. Cognitive theories also help us to understand how an individual's personality and intelligence level are linked to delinquency.
Theoretical framework : theory of cognitive development
Jean Piaget: Moral and intellectual development. People construct a mental model of the world from childhood. Thus, from birth onward an individual will continue to develop. It is a process which occurs due to biological maturation and interaction with the environment.
Bandura maintains that individuals are not born with an innate ability to act violently. He suggested that, in contrast, violence and aggression are learned through a process of behavior modeling (Bandura, 1977). In other words, children learn violence through the observation of others. Aggressive acts are modeled after three primary sources: (1) family interaction, (2) environmental experiences, and (3) the mass media.
Lawrence Kohlberg (1927–1987), who applied the concept of moral development to criminological theory. Kohlberg (1984) believed that individuals pass through stages of moral development. Most important to his theory is the notion that there are levels, stages, and social orientation. The three levels are Level I, preconventional; Level II, conventional; and Level III, postconventional. With respect to the different stages, Stages 1 and 2 fall under Level I. Stages 3 and 4 fall under Level II, and Stages 5 and 6 fall under Level III.
The next subdiscipline is the information-processing branch. This area is predicated on the no.

Recruitment Sources: (how do they bring people onboard?)
For corporate and/or field roles, MC is more inclined to build first (internal hiring) and then buy (external hiring).
1. Build First (Internal Hiring)
Promotions, Transfer, Internship etc..
In addition to their website careers page for the general public, they also have a dedicated portal for internal candidates.
Locally, they also recruit from CU and CSU. Internship is popular method of recruitment. For their Chicago and Milwaukee HQ in the US, they will recruit from the University of Wisconsin system, Marquette, University of Michigan, Michigan State, DePaul, Northwestern, Regis and Loyola.
2. Buy (External Hiring)
Buying is preferred for senior management roles where a diverse perspective offers a competitive advantage.
They leverage LinkedIn and Indeed heavily, Indeed is where I initially applied from.
For external candidates, it’s preferred if you are familiar with the beer industry BUT it is not mandatory. They usually come from other CPG companies, either competitors (beer, wine, spirits) or food/non-alcohol beverage manufacturers.
Recruitment Process and Valid Selection(Integrate/ Combine Recruitment process and valid selection process (how would you ensure valid selection system?))
Recruitment Process from Molson Coors website attached
(Process Draft)
1. HR/Talent acquisition works with the hiring manager to set expectations for candidate core requirements.
2. Interviews are typically extended to 5 candidates, sometimes an additional 1-2 more if the pool is exceptionally talented.
3. You correspond with HR who fills you in on time/date/location/interviewers’ names and roles. The communication is detailed, informing the candidate of the approximate length of time it will take to complete the interview and giving you tips on the format (Panel style and STAR - situation, task, action, response).
4. Our Brew - How We Work sets the foundation of the interview. The initial interview will usually be conducted with the hiring manager (your line/direct manager), the manager who you may be supporting (if applicable) and the person you’re going to backfill (or someone whose role aligns with the one you’re interviewing for).

****************
The purpose of this assignment is to be in the role of an amateur researcher, coming up with a research question, and making decisions regarding what they are going to measure and how they are going to do it. Please provide complete answers to the following questions.
Answers should be single spaced, typed in 12pt Times New Roman, and no more than 2 pages.
1.
What is your research question?
Is there a difference between neighborhoods
where officer-involved shootings occur
and neighborhoods
where they do not occur
in terms of their level of social disorganization (measured as 0-100)? In other words, are officer-involved shootings more likely to occur in neighborhoods that are socially disorganized?
2.
Why did you choose this research question?
Officer-involved shootings have become a highly discussed topic in the aftermath of various high-profile killings of men of color. Understanding if a difference exists in the locations where these shootings occur, and where they do not, are important considerations in the officer’s decision to shoot. Places with high levels of social disorganization may lead an officer to be more likely to shoot (for several reasons that we will be unable to control for), whereas places with lower levels may make it less likely.
3.
Describe the dependent variable and the independent variable.
Dependent Variable
– The level of social disorganization, ratio, continuous
Independent Variable
– Census tracts, nominal, two categories
1. those that have experienced an OIS event,
2. those that have not experienced an OIS event.
4.
State the appropriate statistical test and explain why:
For my analysis, an
independent sample
t-test
is appropriate because my
independent variable is categorical
and my
dependent variable is continuous,
and I am
comparing two groups within the same variable
.
5.
State the null and alternative hypotheses:
H0: There
is no difference
between census tracts level of social disorganization based on if the census tract experienced an OIS event or not.
H1: There
is a difference
between census tracts which have experienced an OIS event and those that have not.
6.
Are there any other variables that you think will be related to the outcome? Describe at least 3 and explain why they are relevant.
1) Characteristics of police officers (sex, age, race, how many, etc.): Some officers may be less likely to use lethal force and controlling for that will lead to a stronger outcome.
2) Characteristics of suspects (sex, age, race, how many, did they have a weapon, etc.): Some characteristics of suspects may make officers more likely to shoot, whether they are legal factors or extra-legal factors.
3) Levels of firearm violence per neighborhood: neighborhoods which are at increased risk for firearm violence may make police more likely to per.

“Compare and contrast society during the early Renaissance in Europe to contemporary society”
In the fourteenth and fifteenth century, Europe experienced significant changes in history. This marked the rebirth and intellectual growth of Europe since many changes were realized during the people. Renaissance was the word used to describe the rebirths that occurred. Renaissance marked the time of significant changes in cultural, literature, philosophical, and art revolution in other nations in Europe (Kaufman, 2012). The change started in Italy and expanded to other areas in Europe. During the early Renaissance, the society had unique characteristics. However, after the occurrence of changes, contemporary society or the current society was developed. The contemporary society is also characterized by unique features compared to the early Renaissance. However, the two types of society are characterized by features that are similar, while others are different. This research is guided by a thesis statement indicating that similarities and differences between the two spread across all aspect of life, including the education system, cultural practices, and economic inventions, among others.
According to Guarnieri and Negro (2012), the difference in the two societies is marked by changes in the spread of knowledge whereby during the early renaissance society information was spread through handwritten forms. Renaissance left to the invention of the printing press. This also reformed the education system since in the ancient times, education was reserved for the rich people, but the rebirth led to the middle class and low classes are educated. This has led to early discoveries and the spread of information. Currently, society spread written material through online press whereby it reaches many people as compared to contemporary society. Renaissance has also facilitated the rise of Humanism. In the early Renaissance era, people were devoted to living a religious life. This was accompanied by fulfilling their spiritual purpose of life. In contemporary society, humanism raised such that people are now interested in filling their interests rather than religious demands. The modern society emphasize more on worldly presses as well as studied classic texts from scholars and philosophers such as Aristotle and Plato to obtain aspirating. People have developed an increased desire to travels and acquire knowledge (Kaufman, 2012).
The goal of the paper is to deeply study the two societies “to compare and contrast society during the early Renaissance in Europe to contemporary society.” To achieve this goal, the researcher will strive to meet various objectives, which include identifying characteristics of religious and cultural practices in early renaissance society and contemporary society. The study seeks to examine the changes in the education system between the two societies. The researcher will also determine the chan.

An analysis of competitive advantage effectiveness and digitization in Saudi nationalized Banks
Submitted by
Researcher / Rawia Al-Madani
ID / 160020468
AbstractThe paper aims to discuss the advantages of having a competitive advantage in the banking system. RIYAD and NCB Bank are one of the two largest Financial institutions in Saudi Arabia , ranked by their assets and wide financial services , Also the two Banks are known of their accessible digital banking channels which made E-transactions the most easiest and the quickest than most banks in the Kingdom .For example, RIYAD bank are among the Banks that might offer a service at a lower price and more convenient and desirable to clients which will allow them to generate revenue and margin more than market rivals, Competitive advantages include cost, quality and most importantly customer service. Also, the research will address RIYAD bank most powerful services that are aligned with achieving the objectives of the vision of 2030 such as the growth of its economy. First , The main aim of the research is insuring meeting customers expectation, the satisfaction of the services provided to increase the development of the economy, also a will touch on the upcoming merger between the two largest Saudi Banks (RIYAD Bank and NCB ) and its positive impacts on the economy and customers .One of the objectives of the research is addressing the importance of Digitization in the banking sector especially in Saudi Arabian banks and its relationship with attracting more customers, ensure their satisfaction with the services provided and the quality of the services. Finally, a comparison between RIYAD Bank and JPMorgan Chase bank to understand customer behavior and choice and preference. The data collection will include a questioner and a survey to employees, clients to support findings. The current research will be presented in various sections including introduction, literature review, methodology, data collection, and analysis, as well as discussion and conclusion.Statement of the Problem
Currently, many banks in Saudi Arabia have incorporated digitization in improving service delivery to its customers. This has been greatly influenced by the battle by all the banking institutions to gain the competitive advantage of each other in the provision of services to the growing customer base in the Kingdom. The Saudi government through the National Plan for Telecommunication and IT which was sanctioned in 2007, as well as the National Transformation Program in Vision 2030, have supported the transformation of banking transactions in the nation to digital or e-transactions (Parameswar, Dhir, & Dhir, 2017). This provision has made banking to millions of Saudis seamless and convenient in their day to day transactions activities. Also, several banks in the nation have resulted to merge with other banks such as SABB and Al-AWWAL merger in a move to expand their customer base and influence in.

PROPOSAL FOR THESIS/RESEARCH PAPER
MASTER OF ARTS IN EMERGENCY AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT
AMERICAN MILITARY UNIVERSITY
SCHOOL OF PUBLIC SERVICE AND HEALTH
[student name]
2019
I propose to the Thesis/Research Paper Professor and to the Department a study of the following
topic to be conducted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Emergency and Disaster Management: [Risk Assessment]
Introduction
[week 3: put your title here]
[Your title should be descriptive enough that your reader will know what your paper is about. ‘The Dangerous Future’ is inadequate—it doesn’t say anything. ‘Global Warming’ is better, but it’s still too broad and imprecise. ‘Global Warming: the Dangerous Future of Agriculture in California’ gives the reader enough information to know if they want to read your study.]
Problem Statement [week 3]
[put your problem statement text here]
[The purpose of research is to provide solutions to problems. What problem will you be trying to solve? Note that ‘objectives’ and ‘conditions’ are not ‘problems’. In other words, ‘This research will discuss what farmers in California need to do to combat global warming’ is not a problem. It’s an objective, and it may have a place in the research paper, but it’s not a problem. Similarly, ‘California is experiencing the impacts of global warming’ is not a problem. It’s a condition. ‘This research will examine whether or not global warming in California is impacting the economic future of agriculture in the state, and provide possible solutions’—THAT’S a good problem statement.
In your role in this class, you are a researcher who is developing a project that will be of value to the field of emergency management and to the broader world of humanity in general. The instructor, in contrast, is playing the role of approval and funding authority. He or she will ultimately decide if you will be granted time to complete the study and be given a budget with which to accomplish it. He or she knows nothing about your project going in, so you have to convince him or her that your project is worthwhile. Assume the funding authority will always have many more projects wanting money than there is to go around. Latest government statistics show that approximately 10% of research applications are funded. There’s no reason to think that will get any better.
So you have to be persuasive about why your project is valuable. A one-sentence or one-paragraph problem statement won’t accomplish that. You will need to explain in depth why your problem is a problem. You will need to explain the background of how your problem came to be. You will need to explain in detail why the solution that you will develop will be worth the investment in the project. Expect your problem statement to require at least two or three double-spaced pages. If you haven’t written that much, then you haven’t done justice to.

It was not known what role perception plays in an individual’s potential to commit crime
The basis of Cognitive theory
Cognitive is defined as an ability to process information: Cognition has to do with one's ability to learn information quickly, memorize, and understand information they receive. Therefore, cognitive theories of crime fall under the psychological theories of criminal behavior. It's important to know that there are different theories that attempt to explain acts of criminal behavior.
Cognitive-behavioral theory combines the principles of social and developmental psychology and those of experimental-clinical psychology. The theory, applied to crime and delinquency, proposes that social behavior is learned. To understand why and how people commit crimes, psychologists and sociologists often study, analyze, and develop explanations of why these behaviors exist. Cognitive theory is one of many psychological theories of criminal behavior. Cognitive theories of crime explain criminal behavior as a defect in moral thinking, thought processes, and mental development. Cognitive theories focus on how we perceive the world around us, how we think, and the factors that influence our mental development (family upbringing, parental modeling, personality, intelligence). These theories help to explain how we develop morally in our thought process. Cognitive theories also help us to understand how an individual's personality and intelligence level are linked to delinquency.
Theoretical framework : theory of cognitive development
Jean Piaget: Moral and intellectual development. People construct a mental model of the world from childhood. Thus, from birth onward an individual will continue to develop. It is a process which occurs due to biological maturation and interaction with the environment.
Bandura maintains that individuals are not born with an innate ability to act violently. He suggested that, in contrast, violence and aggression are learned through a process of behavior modeling (Bandura, 1977). In other words, children learn violence through the observation of others. Aggressive acts are modeled after three primary sources: (1) family interaction, (2) environmental experiences, and (3) the mass media.
Lawrence Kohlberg (1927–1987), who applied the concept of moral development to criminological theory. Kohlberg (1984) believed that individuals pass through stages of moral development. Most important to his theory is the notion that there are levels, stages, and social orientation. The three levels are Level I, preconventional; Level II, conventional; and Level III, postconventional. With respect to the different stages, Stages 1 and 2 fall under Level I. Stages 3 and 4 fall under Level II, and Stages 5 and 6 fall under Level III.
The next subdiscipline is the information-processing branch. This area is predicated on the no.

Recruitment Sources: (how do they bring people onboard?)
For corporate and/or field roles, MC is more inclined to build first (internal hiring) and then buy (external hiring).
1. Build First (Internal Hiring)
Promotions, Transfer, Internship etc..
In addition to their website careers page for the general public, they also have a dedicated portal for internal candidates.
Locally, they also recruit from CU and CSU. Internship is popular method of recruitment. For their Chicago and Milwaukee HQ in the US, they will recruit from the University of Wisconsin system, Marquette, University of Michigan, Michigan State, DePaul, Northwestern, Regis and Loyola.
2. Buy (External Hiring)
Buying is preferred for senior management roles where a diverse perspective offers a competitive advantage.
They leverage LinkedIn and Indeed heavily, Indeed is where I initially applied from.
For external candidates, it’s preferred if you are familiar with the beer industry BUT it is not mandatory. They usually come from other CPG companies, either competitors (beer, wine, spirits) or food/non-alcohol beverage manufacturers.
Recruitment Process and Valid Selection(Integrate/ Combine Recruitment process and valid selection process (how would you ensure valid selection system?))
Recruitment Process from Molson Coors website attached
(Process Draft)
1. HR/Talent acquisition works with the hiring manager to set expectations for candidate core requirements.
2. Interviews are typically extended to 5 candidates, sometimes an additional 1-2 more if the pool is exceptionally talented.
3. You correspond with HR who fills you in on time/date/location/interviewers’ names and roles. The communication is detailed, informing the candidate of the approximate length of time it will take to complete the interview and giving you tips on the format (Panel style and STAR - situation, task, action, response).
4. Our Brew - How We Work sets the foundation of the interview. The initial interview will usually be conducted with the hiring manager (your line/direct manager), the manager who you may be supporting (if applicable) and the person you’re going to backfill (or someone whose role aligns with the one you’re interviewing for).
5. There are 4-5 sections centered on the bullet points below (Take Smart Risks, Win the Right Way, etc.), 1-2 qu.

****************
The purpose of this assignment is to be in the role of an amateur researcher, coming up with a research question, and making decisions regarding what they are going to measure and how they are going to do it. Please provide complete answers to the following questions.
Answers should be single spaced, typed in 12pt Times New Roman, and no more than 2 pages.
1.
What is your research question?
Is there a difference between neighborhoods
where officer-involved shootings occur
and neighborhoods
where they do not occur
in terms of their level of social disorganization (measured as 0-100)? In other words, are officer-involved shootings more likely to occur in neighborhoods that are socially disorganized?
2.
Why did you choose this research question?
Officer-involved shootings have become a highly discussed topic in the aftermath of various high-profile killings of men of color. Understanding if a difference exists in the locations where these shootings occur, and where they do not, are important considerations in the officer’s decision to shoot. Places with high levels of social disorganization may lead an officer to be more likely to shoot (for several reasons that we will be unable to control for), whereas places with lower levels may make it less likely.
3.
Describe the dependent variable and the independent variable.
Dependent Variable
– The level of social disorganization, ratio, continuous
Independent Variable
– Census tracts, nominal, two categories
1. those that have experienced an OIS event,
2. those that have not experienced an OIS event.
4.
State the appropriate statistical test and explain why:
For my analysis, an
independent sample
t-test
is appropriate because my
independent variable is categorical
and my
dependent variable is continuous,
and I am
comparing two groups within the same variable
.
5.
State the null and alternative hypotheses:
H0: There
is no difference
between census tracts level of social disorganization based on if the census tract experienced an OIS event or not.
H1: There
is a difference
between census tracts which have experienced an OIS event and those that have not.
6.
Are there any other variables that you think will be related to the outcome? Describe at least 3 and explain why they are relevant.
1) Characteristics of police officers (sex, age, race, how many, etc.): Some officers may be less likely to use lethal force and controlling for that will lead to a stronger outcome.
2) Characteristics of suspects (sex, age, race, how many, did they have a weapon, etc.): Some characteristics of suspects may make officers more likely to shoot, whether they are legal factors or extra-legal factors.
3) Levels of firearm violence per neighborhood: neighborhoods which are at increased risk for firearm violence may make police more likely to per.

“Compare and contrast society during the early Renaissance in Europe to contemporary society”
In the fourteenth and fifteenth century, Europe experienced significant changes in history. This marked the rebirth and intellectual growth of Europe since many changes were realized during the people. Renaissance was the word used to describe the rebirths that occurred. Renaissance marked the time of significant changes in cultural, literature, philosophical, and art revolution in other nations in Europe (Kaufman, 2012). The change started in Italy and expanded to other areas in Europe. During the early Renaissance, the society had unique characteristics. However, after the occurrence of changes, contemporary society or the current society was developed. The contemporary society is also characterized by unique features compared to the early Renaissance. However, the two types of society are characterized by features that are similar, while others are different. This research is guided by a thesis statement indicating that similarities and differences between the two spread across all aspect of life, including the education system, cultural practices, and economic inventions, among others.
According to Guarnieri and Negro (2012), the difference in the two societies is marked by changes in the spread of knowledge whereby during the early renaissance society information was spread through handwritten forms. Renaissance left to the invention of the printing press. This also reformed the education system since in the ancient times, education was reserved for the rich people, but the rebirth led to the middle class and low classes are educated. This has led to early discoveries and the spread of information. Currently, society spread written material through online press whereby it reaches many people as compared to contemporary society. Renaissance has also facilitated the rise of Humanism. In the early Renaissance era, people were devoted to living a religious life. This was accompanied by fulfilling their spiritual purpose of life. In contemporary society, humanism raised such that people are now interested in filling their interests rather than religious demands. The modern society emphasize more on worldly presses as well as studied classic texts from scholars and philosophers such as Aristotle and Plato to obtain aspirating. People have developed an increased desire to travels and acquire knowledge (Kaufman, 2012).
The goal of the paper is to deeply study the two societies “to compare and contrast society during the early Renaissance in Europe to contemporary society.” To achieve this goal, the researcher will strive to meet various objectives, which include identifying characteristics of religious and cultural practices in early renaissance society and contemporary society. The study seeks to examine the changes in the education system between the two societies. The researcher will also determine the chan.

An analysis of competitive advantage effectiveness and digitization in Saudi nationalized Banks
Submitted by
Researcher / Rawia Al-Madani
ID / 160020468
AbstractThe paper aims to discuss the advantages of having a competitive advantage in the banking system. RIYAD and NCB Bank are one of the two largest Financial institutions in Saudi Arabia , ranked by their assets and wide financial services , Also the two Banks are known of their accessible digital banking channels which made E-transactions the most easiest and the quickest than most banks in the Kingdom .For example, RIYAD bank are among the Banks that might offer a service at a lower price and more convenient and desirable to clients which will allow them to generate revenue and margin more than market rivals, Competitive advantages include cost, quality and most importantly customer service. Also, the research will address RIYAD bank most powerful services that are aligned with achieving the objectives of the vision of 2030 such as the growth of its economy. First , The main aim of the research is insuring meeting customers expectation, the satisfaction of the services provided to increase the development of the economy, also a will touch on the upcoming merger between the two largest Saudi Banks (RIYAD Bank and NCB ) and its positive impacts on the economy and customers .One of the objectives of the research is addressing the importance of Digitization in the banking sector especially in Saudi Arabian banks and its relationship with attracting more customers, ensure their satisfaction with the services provided and the quality of the services. Finally, a comparison between RIYAD Bank and JPMorgan Chase bank to understand customer behavior and choice and preference. The data collection will include a questioner and a survey to employees, clients to support findings. The current research will be presented in various sections including introduction, literature review, methodology, data collection, and analysis, as well as discussion and conclusion.Statement of the Problem
Currently, many banks in Saudi Arabia have incorporated digitization in improving service delivery to its customers. This has been greatly influenced by the battle by all the banking institutions to gain the competitive advantage of each other in the provision of services to the growing customer base in the Kingdom. The Saudi government through the National Plan for Telecommunication and IT which was sanctioned in 2007, as well as the National Transformation Program in Vision 2030, have supported the transformation of banking transactions in the nation to digital or e-transactions (Parameswar, Dhir, & Dhir, 2017). This provision has made banking to millions of Saudis seamless and convenient in their day to day transactions activities. Also, several banks in the nation have resulted to merge with other banks such as SABB and Al-AWWAL merger in a move to expand their customer base and influence in.

PROPOSAL FOR THESIS/RESEARCH PAPER
MASTER OF ARTS IN EMERGENCY AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT
AMERICAN MILITARY UNIVERSITY
SCHOOL OF PUBLIC SERVICE AND HEALTH
[student name]
2019
I propose to the Thesis/Research Paper Professor and to the Department a study of the following
topic to be conducted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Emergency and Disaster Management: [Risk Assessment]
Introduction
[week 3: put your title here]
[Your title should be descriptive enough that your reader will know what your paper is about. ‘The Dangerous Future’ is inadequate—it doesn’t say anything. ‘Global Warming’ is better, but it’s still too broad and imprecise. ‘Global Warming: the Dangerous Future of Agriculture in California’ gives the reader enough information to know if they want to read your study.]
Problem Statement [week 3]
[put your problem statement text here]
[The purpose of research is to provide solutions to problems. What problem will you be trying to solve? Note that ‘objectives’ and ‘conditions’ are not ‘problems’. In other words, ‘This research will discuss what farmers in California need to do to combat global warming’ is not a problem. It’s an objective, and it may have a place in the research paper, but it’s not a problem. Similarly, ‘California is experiencing the impacts of global warming’ is not a problem. It’s a condition. ‘This research will examine whether or not global warming in California is impacting the economic future of agriculture in the state, and provide possible solutions’—THAT’S a good problem statement.
In your role in this class, you are a researcher who is developing a project that will be of value to the field of emergency management and to the broader world of humanity in general. The instructor, in contrast, is playing the role of approval and funding authority. He or she will ultimately decide if you will be granted time to complete the study and be given a budget with which to accomplish it. He or she knows nothing about your project going in, so you have to convince him or her that your project is worthwhile. Assume the funding authority will always have many more projects wanting money than there is to go around. Latest government statistics show that approximately 10% of research applications are funded. There’s no reason to think that will get any better.
So you have to be persuasive about why your project is valuable. A one-sentence or one-paragraph problem statement won’t accomplish that. You will need to explain in depth why your problem is a problem. You will need to explain the background of how your problem came to be. You will need to explain in detail why the solution that you will develop will be worth the investment in the project. Expect your problem statement to require at least two or three double-spaced pages. If you haven’t written that much, then you haven’t done justice to.
