Assessment 1• Proposing a New InitiativeResearch an economic.docx
Assessment 1
• Proposing a New Initiative
Research an economic opportunity that might be available within your health care setting that will provide ethical and culturally equitable improvements to the quality of care. Then, write a 2–4-page proposal for an initiative to take advantage of that opportunity, supported with economic data and an analysis of the prospective benefits.
Note: Each assessment in this course builds upon the work you have completed in previous assessments. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.
Master's-level health care practitioners are charged with the responsibility of constantly scanning the external environment for shifts in the supply of, and demand for, services. Concurrently, leaders must examine their organization's strategic direction and determine whether adjustments must be made to current service offerings, whether equipment updates are needed, whether staffing models should be changed, and whether other decisions must be made. Each decision that is proposed must be evaluated in terms of the organization as a system, alignment with the organization's mission and strategy, available internal resources, potential contract and payer source implications, and the short- and long-term economic effects at both the micro and macro levels.
Health Care Supply and Demand

Assessment 2
Quality Improvement Proposal
Overview:
Write a quality improvement proposal, 5–7 pages in length, that provides your recommendations for expanding a hospital's HIT to include quality metrics that will help the organization qualify as an accountable care organization.
Health care has undergone a transformation since the release of the Institute of Medicine's 2000 report
To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System.
The report highlighted medical errors as a contributing factor leading to poor patient outcomes. The Institute of Medicine challenged organizations to implement evidence-based performance improvement strategies in order to improve patient quality and safety. Multiple governmental and regulatory agencies, such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research (AHRQ), vowed to strengthen and improve incentives for participation, safety, quality, and efficiency in accountable care organizations (ACOs).
Health information technology (HIT) performs an essential role in improving health outcomes of individuals, the community, and populations. Health organizations, consumer advocacy groups, and regulatory committees have made a commitment to explore current and future opportunities that HIT offers to continue momentum to meet the Institute of Medicine's goal of improving safety and quality.
Understanding HIT is important to improving individual, community, and population access to health care and health information. HIT enables quick and easy access to information for both patients and providers. Accessible information has been shown to improve the patient care experience and reduce redundancies, thereby reducing health care costs.
This assessment provides an opportunity for you to make recommendations for expanding a hospital's HIT in ways that will help the hospital qualify as an ACO.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 2: Explain the relationship between care coordination and evidence-based data.
Recommend ways to expand an organization's HIT to include quality metrics.
Identify potential problems that can arise with data gathering systems and outputs.
Competency 3: Use health information technology to guide care coordination and organizational practice.
Describe the main focus of information gathering in health care and how it contributes to guiding the development of organizational practice.
Competency 4: Communicate effectively with diverse audiences, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with applicable organizational, professional, and scholarly standards.
Write clearly and concisely, using correct grammar and mechanics.
Support main points, claims, and conclusions with relevant and credible evidence, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style.

Value Based Purchasing (VBP) Program
Background
The National Quality Strategy (NQS) was first published in March 2011 as the National Strategy
for Quality Improvement in Health Care, and is led by the Agency for Healthcare Research and
Quality on behalf of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Today, the NQS
serves as a guide for identifying and prioritizing quality improvement efforts, sharing lessons
learned, and measuring the collective success of Federal, State, and public‐ and private‐sector
healthcare stakeholders across the country.
The Aims of the NQS are threefold:
Better Care: Improve the overall quality by making health care more patient‐centered,
reliable, accessible, and safe.
Healthy People/Healthy Communities: Improve the health of the U.S. population by
supporting proven interventions to address behavioral, social, and environmental
determinants of health in addition to delivering higher‐quality care.
Affordable Care: Reduce the cost of quality health care for individuals, families,
employers, and government.
To align with this, CMS has set goals for their Quality Strategy. These include:
• Make care safer by reducing harm caused in the delivery of care
– Improve support for a culture of safety
– Reduce inappropriate and unnecessary care
– Prevent or minimize harm in all settings
• Strengthen person and family engagement as partners in their care
• Promote effective communication and coordination of care
• Promote effective prevention and treatment of chronic disease
• Work with communities to promote best practices of healthy living
• Make care affordable
CMS’s vision states that if we can find better ways to pay providers, deliver care, and distribute
information than patients can receive better care, health dollars are spent more wisely, and
there are healthier communities, a healthier economy, and a healthier county. It is with this in
mind that they have created multiple quality payment programs.
In January 2015, the Department of Health and Human Services made an announcement that
set in place measurable goals and a timeline to move the Medicare program towards paying
providers based on the quality of care rather than the quantity. This was the first time in the
history of the program that explicit goals were set. They invited private sector payers to match
or exceed these goals as well. These goals included:
1. Alternative Payment Models
a. 30% of Medicare payments tied to quality or value through Alternative Payment
models by the end of 2016 and 50% by the end of 2018
2. Linking Fee‐For‐Service payments to Quality/Value

PREPARATIONConsider the hospital-acquired conditions that ar.docx
PREPARATION
Consider the hospital-acquired conditions that are not reimbursed for under Medicare/Medicaid. Among these conditions are specific safety issues such as infections, falls, medication errors, and other safety concerns that could have been prevented or alleviated with the use of evidence-based guidelines. Hospital Safety Score, an independent nonprofit organization, uses national performance measures to determine the safety score for hospitals in the United States. The Hospital Safety Score Web site and other online resources provide hospital safety scores to the public.
Read the scenario below:
Scenario
As the manager of a unit, you have been advised by the patient safety office of an alarming increase in the hospital safety score for your unit. This is a very serious public relations matter because patient safety data is public information. It is also a financial crisis because the organization stands to lose a significant amount of reimbursement money from Medicare and Medicaid unless the source of the problem can be identified and corrected. You are required to submit a safety score improvement plan to the organization's leadership and the patient safety office.
Select a specific patient safety goal that has been identified by an organization, or one that is widely regarded in the nursing profession as relevant to quality patient care delivery, such as patient falls, infection rates, catheter-induced urinary infections, IV infections, et cetera.
DELIVERABLE: SAFETY SCORE IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Develop a 3–5 page safety score improvement plan.
Identify the health care setting and nursing unit of your choice
in the title of the mitigation plan. For example, "Safety Score Improvement Plan for XYZ Rehabilitation Center."
You may choose to use information on a patient safety issue for the organization in which you currently work, or search for information from a setting you are familiar with, perhaps from your clinical work.
Demonstrate systems theory and systems thinking as you develop your recommendations.
Organize your report with these headings:
Study of Factors
Identify a patient safety issue.
Describe the influence of nursing leadership in driving the needed changes.
Apply systems thinking to explain how current policies and procedures may affect a safety issue.
Recommendations
Recommend an evidence-based strategy to improve the safety issue.
Explain a strategy to collect information about the safety concern.
How would you determine the sources of the problem?
Explain a plan to implement a recommendation and monitor outcomes.
What quality indicators will you use?
How will you monitor outcomes?
Will policies or procedures need to be changed?
Will nursing staff need training?
What tools will you need to do this?
Additional Requirements

Assignment 3: Capstone Research Project
Due Week 10 and worth 440 points
Assume you are the partner in an accounting firm hired to perform the audit on a fortune 1000 company. Assume also that the initial public offering (IPO) of the company was approximately five (5) years ago and the company is concerned that, in less than five (5) years after the IPO, a restatement may be necessary. During your initial evaluation of the client, you discover the following information:
The client is currently undergoing a three (3) year income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). A significant issue involved in the IRS audit encompasses inventory write-downs on the tax returns that are not included in the financial statements. Because of the concealment of the transaction, the IRS is labeling the treatment of the write-down as fraud.
The company has a share-based compensation plan for top-level executives consisting of stock options. The value of the options exercised during the year was not expensed or disclosed in the financial statements.
The company has several operating and capital leases in place, and the CFO is considering leasing a substantial portion of the assets for future use. The current leases in place are arranged using special purpose entities (SPEs) and operating leases.
The company seeks to acquire a global partner, which will require IFRS reporting.
The company received correspondence from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requesting additional supplemental information regarding the financial statements submitted with the IPO.
Write 8 page paper in which you:
Evaluate any damaging financial and ethical repercussions of failure to include the inventory write-downs in the financial statements. Prepare a recommendation to the CFO, evaluating the negative impact of a civil fraud penalty on the corporation as a result of the IRS audit. In the recommendation, include essential internal control procedures to prevent fraudulent financial reporting from occurring, as well as the major obligation of the CEO and CFO to ensure compliance.
Examine the negative results on stakeholders and the financial statements of an IRS audit which generates additional tax and penalties or subsequent audits. Assume that the subsequent audit and / or additional tax and penalties result from the taxpayer’s use of an inventory reserve account, applying a 10 percent reduction to inventory over three (3) years.
Discuss the applicable federal tax laws, regulations, rulings, and court cases related to the inventory write-downs, and explain the specific relevance of each to the write-down.
Research the current generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) regarding stock option accounting. Evaluate the current treatment of the company’s share-based compensation plan based on GAAP reporting. Contrast the financial benefits and risks of the share-based compensation stock option plan with the financial benefits and risks of a share-based stock.

Assignment 3: Case History
When conducting an evaluation, it is also important to consider the client’s demography as a possible contributing factor.
Use the module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research methods of recording case histories.
Create a case history for a person with an addiction that clearly traces contributing factors. Do not include identifying information. At this point, do not include details of any mental illness that would constitute a dual diagnosis. Be sure to cover the following components in your case history:
Demographics – including age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, marital status, number and ages of children, living arrangements, and religion if applicable
Family background
Education
Employment
History of chemical use
Description of the current problem (include history of previous treatment, if any)
After completing the case history, consider ethical standards in relation to this client. What potential ethical issues exist or may come into play with this client? Be sure to include at least one ethical issue. Explore multiculturalism, duty to report/warn, and confidentiality. For example, if the client has children, explain how duty to report may come into play when working with this client.
Write a 3–4-page report in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M1_A3.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M1_A3.doc.

• Proposing a New Initiative
Research an economic opportunity that might be available within your health care setting that will provide ethical and culturally equitable improvements to the quality of care. Then, write a 2–4-page proposal for an initiative to take advantage of that opportunity, supported with economic data and an analysis of the prospective benefits.
Note: Each assessment in this course builds upon the work you have completed in previous assessments. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.
Master's-level health care practitioners are charged with the responsibility of constantly scanning the external environment for shifts in the supply of, and demand for, services. Concurrently, leaders must examine their organization's strategic direction and determine whether adjustments must be made to current service offerings, whether equipment updates are needed, whether staffing models should be changed, and whether other decisions must be made. Each decision that is proposed must be evaluated in terms of the organization as a system, alignment with the organization's mission and strategy, available internal resources, potential contract and payer source implications, and the short- and long-term economic effects at both the micro and macro levels.

Assessment 2
Quality Improvement Proposal
Overview:
Write a quality improvement proposal, 5–7 pages in length, that provides your recommendations for expanding a hospital's HIT to include quality metrics that will help the organization qualify as an accountable care organization.
Health care has undergone a transformation since the release of the Institute of Medicine's 2000 report
To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System.
The report highlighted medical errors as a contributing factor leading to poor patient outcomes. The Institute of Medicine challenged organizations to implement evidence-based performance improvement strategies in order to improve patient quality and safety. Multiple governmental and regulatory agencies, such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research (AHRQ), vowed to strengthen and improve incentives for participation, safety, quality, and efficiency in accountable care organizations (ACOs).
Health information technology (HIT) performs an essential role in improving health outcomes of individuals, the community, and populations. Health organizations, consumer advocacy groups, and regulatory committees have made a commitment to explore current and future opportunities that HIT offers to continue momentum to meet the Institute of Medicine's goal of improving safety and quality.
Understanding HIT is important to improving individual, community, and population access to health care and health information. HIT enables quick and easy access to information for both patients and providers. Accessible information has been shown to improve the patient care experience and reduce redundancies, thereby reducing health care costs.
This assessment provides an opportunity for you to make recommendations for expanding a hospital's HIT in ways that will help the hospital qualify as an ACO.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 2: Explain the relationship between care coordination and evidence-based data.
Recommend ways to expand an organization's HIT to include quality metrics.
Identify potential problems that can arise with data gathering systems and outputs.
Competency 3: Use health information technology to guide care coordination and organizational practice.
Describe the main focus of information gathering in health care and how it contributes to guiding the development of organizational practice.
Competency 4: Communicate effectively with diverse audiences, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with applicable organizational, professional, and scholarly standards.
Write clearly and concisely, using correct grammar and mechanics.
Support main points, claims, and conclusions with relevant and credible evidence, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style.

Part 2: Clinical Quality Measures for Hospitals
Overview
This activity focuses on Quality Measures for Hospitals. The activity uses online resources from

Value Based Purchasing (VBP) Program
Background
The National Quality Strategy (NQS) was first published in March 2011 as the National Strategy
for Quality Improvement in Health Care, and is led by the Agency for Healthcare Research and
Quality on behalf of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Today, the NQS
serves as a guide for identifying and prioritizing quality improvement efforts, sharing lessons
learned, and measuring the collective success of Federal, State, and public‐ and private‐sector
healthcare stakeholders across the country.
The Aims of the NQS are threefold:
Better Care: Improve the overall quality by making health care more patient‐centered,
reliable, accessible, and safe.
Healthy People/Healthy Communities: Improve the health of the U.S. population by
supporting proven interventions to address behavioral, social, and environmental
determinants of health in addition to delivering higher‐quality care.
Affordable Care: Reduce the cost of quality health care for individuals, families,
employers, and government.
To align with this, CMS has set goals for their Quality Strategy. These include:
• Make care safer by reducing harm caused in the delivery of care
– Improve support for a culture of safety
– Reduce inappropriate and unnecessary care
– Prevent or minimize harm in all settings
• Strengthen person and family engagement as partners in their care
• Promote effective communication and coordination of care
• Promote effective prevention and treatment of chronic disease
• Work with communities to promote best practices of healthy living
• Make care affordable
CMS’s vision states that if we can find better ways to pay providers, deliver care, and distribute
information than patients can receive better care, health dollars are spent more wisely, and
there are healthier communities, a healthier economy, and a healthier county. It is with this in
mind that they have created multiple quality payment programs.
In January 2015, the Department of Health and Human Services made an announcement that
set in place measurable goals and a timeline to move the Medicare program towards paying
providers based on the quality of care rather than the quantity. This was the first time in the
history of the program that explicit goals were set. They invited private sector payers to match
or exceed these goals as well. These goals included:
1. Alternative Payment Models
a. 30% of Medicare payments tied to quality or value through Alternative Payment
models by the end of 2016 and 50% by the end of 2018
2. Linking Fee‐For‐Service payments to Quality/Value

PREPARATIONConsider the hospital-acquired conditions that ar.docx
PREPARATION
Consider the hospital-acquired conditions that are not reimbursed for under Medicare/Medicaid. Among these conditions are specific safety issues such as infections, falls, medication errors, and other safety concerns that could have been prevented or alleviated with the use of evidence-based guidelines. Hospital Safety Score, an independent nonprofit organization, uses national performance measures to determine the safety score for hospitals in the United States. The Hospital Safety Score Web site and other online resources provide hospital safety scores to the public.
Read the scenario below:
Scenario
As the manager of a unit, you have been advised by the patient safety office of an alarming increase in the hospital safety score for your unit. This is a very serious public relations matter because patient safety data is public information. It is also a financial crisis because the organization stands to lose a significant amount of reimbursement money from Medicare and Medicaid unless the source of the problem can be identified and corrected. You are required to submit a safety score improvement plan to the organization's leadership and the patient safety office.
Select a specific patient safety goal that has been identified by an organization, or one that is widely regarded in the nursing profession as relevant to quality patient care delivery, such as patient falls, infection rates, catheter-induced urinary infections, IV infections, et cetera.
DELIVERABLE: SAFETY SCORE IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Develop a 3–5 page safety score improvement plan.
Identify the health care setting and nursing unit of your choice
in the title of the mitigation plan. For example, "Safety Score Improvement Plan for XYZ Rehabilitation Center."
You may choose to use information on a patient safety issue for the organization in which you currently work, or search for information from a setting you are familiar with, perhaps from your clinical work.
Demonstrate systems theory and systems thinking as you develop your recommendations.
Organize your report with these headings:
Study of Factors
Identify a patient safety issue.
Describe the influence of nursing leadership in driving the needed changes.
Apply systems thinking to explain how current policies and procedures may affect a safety issue.
Recommendations
Recommend an evidence-based strategy to improve the safety issue.
Explain a strategy to collect information about the safety concern.
How would you determine the sources of the problem?
Explain a plan to implement a recommendation and monitor outcomes.
What quality indicators will you use?
How will you monitor outcomes?
Will policies or procedures need to be changed?
Will nursing staff need training?
What tools will you need to do this?
Additional Requirements
Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.

Assignment 3: Capstone Research Project
Due Week 10 and worth 440 points
Assume you are the partner in an accounting firm hired to perform the audit on a fortune 1000 company. Assume also that the initial public offering (IPO) of the company was approximately five (5) years ago and the company is concerned that, in less than five (5) years after the IPO, a restatement may be necessary. During your initial evaluation of the client, you discover the following information:
The client is currently undergoing a three (3) year income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). A significant issue involved in the IRS audit encompasses inventory write-downs on the tax returns that are not included in the financial statements. Because of the concealment of the transaction, the IRS is labeling the treatment of the write-down as fraud.
The company has a share-based compensation plan for top-level executives consisting of stock options. The value of the options exercised during the year was not expensed or disclosed in the financial statements.
The company has several operating and capital leases in place, and the CFO is considering leasing a substantial portion of the assets for future use. The current leases in place are arranged using special purpose entities (SPEs) and operating leases.
The company seeks to acquire a global partner, which will require IFRS reporting.
The company received correspondence from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requesting additional supplemental information regarding the financial statements submitted with the IPO.
Write 8 page paper in which you:
Evaluate any damaging financial and ethical repercussions of failure to include the inventory write-downs in the financial statements. Prepare a recommendation to the CFO, evaluating the negative impact of a civil fraud penalty on the corporation as a result of the IRS audit. In the recommendation, include essential internal control procedures to prevent fraudulent financial reporting from occurring, as well as the major obligation of the CEO and CFO to ensure compliance.
Examine the negative results on stakeholders and the financial statements of an IRS audit which generates additional tax and penalties or subsequent audits. Assume that the subsequent audit and / or additional tax and penalties result from the taxpayer’s use of an inventory reserve account, applying a 10 percent reduction to inventory over three (3) years.
Discuss the applicable federal tax laws, regulations, rulings, and court cases related to the inventory write-downs, and explain the specific relevance of each to the write-down.
Research the current generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) regarding stock option accounting. Evaluate the current treatment of the company’s share-based compensation plan based on GAAP reporting. Contrast the financial benefits and risks of the share-based compensation stock option plan with the financial benefits and risks of a share-based stock.

Assignment 3: Case History
When conducting an evaluation, it is also important to consider the client’s demography as a possible contributing factor.
Use the module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research methods of recording case histories.
Create a case history for a person with an addiction that clearly traces contributing factors. Do not include identifying information. At this point, do not include details of any mental illness that would constitute a dual diagnosis. Be sure to cover the following components in your case history:
Demographics – including age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, marital status, number and ages of children, living arrangements, and religion if applicable
Family background
Education
Employment
History of chemical use
Description of the current problem (include history of previous treatment, if any)
After completing the case history, consider ethical standards in relation to this client. What potential ethical issues exist or may come into play with this client? Be sure to include at least one ethical issue. Explore multiculturalism, duty to report/warn, and confidentiality. For example, if the client has children, explain how duty to report may come into play when working with this client.
Write a 3–4-page report in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M1_A3.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M1_A3.doc.

Assignment 2—Criminal Justice ArgumentsSeveral players interact w.docx
Assignment 2:—Criminal Justice Arguments
Several players interact with each other in the courtroom. Of those players, we see two profiles often in popular media: criminal defense lawyers and the prosecution. Both are responsible for taking a case from its preliminary phases to trial and beyond. Both gather evidence, interview witnesses, and develop possible arguments for their cases. Both are responsible for presenting the best outcome, whether they believe in the reasoning or not. In this assignment, you will have the experience of developing an argument for a criminal case.
Activity Details
Step 1:
Identify a criminal case that you feel passionately about. Find an article related to a criminal case in the Argosy University online library to use in the summary.
Complete the following tasks.
Write a one-page summary of the case. The summary should include:
The alleged crime that occurred
The elements of the crime
The evidence presented in the case
The possible defenses
Step 2:
Write a one-page argument for the defendant as if you were the defense attorney on the case. In your argument:
Address the jury by introducing yourself and the client named in the case.
Highlight the strengths of the case by telling the jury your client’s side.
Personalize the case by telling the jury about your client.
Acknowledge the weaknesses that the other side will point out.
Discuss any defenses you may use during the case.
Request an outcome from the jury, which is normally a not-guilty verdict for the defendant.
Step 3:
Write a one-page argument as if you were the prosecutor on the case. In your argument:
Address the jury by introducing yourself and the state you represent.
Highlight the strengths of the case by telling the jury why the defendant is guilty.
Personalize the case by describing the aftermath of the crime, the victims, and the harm caused to society because of the crime.
Acknowledge the weaknesses that the other side will point out.
Request an outcome from the jury, which is normally a guilty verdict for the defendant.
Step 4:
Conduct an internet search of government and career sites (e.g. bls.gov, jobs.com, monster.com, etc) to locate recent information on the career prospects for Defense Attorneys/Prosecutors in your geographic location. Present your findings, including related job titles, potential employers, a summary of this job function, the education and experience required to qualify for this position, and the average salary one could expect to earn.
Step 5:

Assignment 2 Case of Anna OOne of the very first cases that caugh.docx
Assignment 2: Case of Anna O
One of the very first cases that caught Freud’s attention when he was starting to develop his psychoanalytic theory was that of Anna O, a patient of fellow psychiatrist Josef Breuer. Although Freud did not directly treat her, he did thoroughly analyze her case as he was fascinated by the fact that her hysteria was “cured” by Breuer. It is her case that he believes was the beginning of the psychoanalytic approach.
Through your analysis of this case, you will not only look deeper into Freud’s psychoanalytic theory but also see how Jung’s neo-psychoanalytic theory compares and contrasts with Freud’s theory.
Review the following:
The Case of Anna O.
One of the first cases that inspired Freud in the development of what would eventually become the Psychoanalytic Theory was the case of Anna O. Anna O. was actually a patient of one of Freud’s colleagues Josef Breuer. Using Breuer’s case notes, Freud was able to analyze the key facts of Anna O’s case.
Anna O. first developed her symptoms while she was taking care of her very ill father with whom she was extremely close. Some of her initial symptoms were loss of appetite to the extent of not eating, weakness, anemia, and development a severe nervous cough. Eventually she developed a severe optic headache and lost the ability to move her head, which then progressed into paralysis of both arms. Her symptoms were not solely physical as she would vacillate between a normal, mental state and a manic-type state in which she would become extremely agitated. There was even a notation of a time for which she hallucinated that the ribbons in her hair were snakes.
Toward the end of her father’s life she stopped speaking her native language of German and instead only spoke in English. A little over a year after she began taking care of her father he passed away. After his passing her symptoms grew to affect her vision, a loss of ability to focus her attention, more extreme hallucinations, and a number of suicidal attempts (Hurst, 1982).
Both Freud and Jung would acknowledge that unconscious processes are at work in this woman's problems. However, they would come to different conclusions about the origin of these problems and the method by which she should be treated.
Research Freud’s and Jung’s theories of personality using your textbook, the Internet, and the Argosy University online library resources. Based on your research, respond to the following:
Compare and contrast Freud's view of the unconscious with Jung's view and apply this case example in your explanations.
On what specific points would they agree and disagree regarding the purpose and manifestation of the unconscious in the case of Anna?
How might they each approach the treatment of Anna? What might be those specific interventions? How might Anna experience these interventions considering her history?
Write a 2–3-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Assignment 2: Discussion—Comparison of Editorials
In this assignment, you will identify and explore your intuitive critical-thinking strategies. It is the starting point to developing the skills to analyze information critically.
Research methods of identifying strong and weak arguments using your textbook and the Argosy University online library resources. Be sure to cover the following:
Identify premises and conclusions
Discuss whether or not an inference is warranted
Determine whether arguments utilize inductive or deductive reasoning
For this assignment, your facilitator will assign you one of the following debates:
Debate 1: Should the “Ashley X” treatments have been permitted?
Debate 2: Is Osama Bin Laden’s death a decisive blow to Al Qaeda or an unmitigated victory against terrorism?
Each debate has two sets of articles for review. Your facilitator will assign you one of these sets.
Each set has two articles with two varying, but important, perspectives on the same subject. Be sure to read both articles in the set.
Debate 2
These pairs of articles focus on the subject of Osama Bin Laden’s death and the alleged implications his death are expected to have on matters of future Al Qaeda activity and international safety.
Set A
Clarke, R. A. (2011, May 3). Bin Laden’s dead. Al Qaeda’s not [Op-Ed].
The New York Times,
p. A.23. (ProQuest Document ID 864311946).
http://search.proquest.com.libproxy.edmc.edu/docview/864311946/abstract?source=fedsrch&accountid=34899
THE United States needed to eliminate Osama bin Laden to fulfill our sense of justice and, to a lesser extent, to end the myth of his invincibility. But dropping Bin Laden's corpse in the sea does not end the terrorist threat, nor does it remove the ideological motivation of Al Qaeda's supporters.
Often forgotten amid the ugly violence of Al Qaeda's attacks was that the terrorists' declared goal was to replace existing governments in the Muslim world with religiously pure Islamist states and eventually restore an Islamic caliphate. High on Al Qaeda's list of targets was Egypt's president, Hosni Mubarak. The protesters of Tahrir Square succeeded in removing him without terrorism and without Al Qaeda.
Thus, even before Bin Laden's death, analysts had begun to argue that Al Qaeda was rapidly becoming irrelevant. With Bin Laden's death, it is even more tempting to think that the era of Al Qaeda is over.
But such rejoicing would be premature. To many Islamist ideologues, the Arab Spring simply represents the removal of obstacles that stood in the way of establishing the caliphate. Their goal has not changed, nor has their willingness to use terrorism.
In the months ahead, Bin Laden's death may encourage Al Qaeda to stage an attack to counter the impression that it is out of business. The more significant threat, however, will come from Al Qaeda's local affiliates. Bin Laden and his deputies designed Al Qaeda as a network of affiliated groups that could operate largely independently to .

ASSIGNMENT 2You will be working on a weekly generational analy.docx
ASSIGNMENT 2
You will be working on a weekly generational analysis that culminates in a final, edited compilation due in
Week 6.
Your weekly installments will explore the zeitgeist (German for “spirit of the times”) of each era by traveling through the generations and examining a single facet of popular culture. Select one area of popular culture to investigate through each generation from the following list:
•
Architecture or Art
•
Advertising or Graphic Design
•
Culinary Arts
•
Dance
•
Fashion
•
Film or Video
•
Games or Sports
•
Jokes or Urban Legends
•
Literature
•
Music or Music Videos
Consider the generation’s characteristics as you explore how the area you have chosen evolved during that generation. Relate the generation to the area, and you will find the spirit of the times.
Compose your analysis with care. Analyze how the area you chose forms a portrait of the multiple generations alive during this time. Think about historical and cultural events, technological advancements, the economy, and the political climate. Describe how those changes might affect one personally.
Your project may take the form of a traditional paper. A traditional paper offers an introduction, develops a thesis with evidence, and provides a conclusion. Your paper must include functional links, clips, and/or images.
An alternative to the traditional paper is a creative work approved by your instructor and supported with a written analysis. Your written analysis will support your creative project by relating your creative work to the zeitgeist we study each week. Some examples are: a menu for each generation, a cinema showcase of film clips or self-made films reflecting each generation, a concert (your own music created in the spirit of each generation), a fashion show for each generation, a video game reflecting the generations, an oral history (interviews with family members, friends, and/or strangers about their generations).
Visual presentation is important. Be certain to present your work aesthetically. If you are composing a traditional paper, then images, clips, and/or links will add professionalism.
Our session together examines six generations
focusing primarily on their
“coming of age” eras
during which they significantly began asserting themselves as consumers/creators of popular culture. Please refer to the table below to discern the birth date ranges and coming-of-age date ranges for each generation:

Assignment 2 Traumatic Brain Injury Jefferson’s CaseWhen new par.docx
Assignment 2: Traumatic Brain Injury: Jefferson’s Case
When new parents are expecting a baby, they rarely consider the possibility that the baby could have significant challenges. For those who have children with severe, multiple disabilities, planning for the future is a critical, lifelong process and requires considerable investments of time and effort, while potentially causing significant stress to the parents. With advances in our understanding, there are many more resources available to children and families than there were previously.
Review the following scenario:
Jefferson is a six-year-old boy in kindergarten. He has suffered from cerebral palsy and a severe seizure disorder since he was an infant, resulting in significant physical and cognitive impairment. Although he has received services and support through early childhood intervention (ECI) services, as he enters formal schooling, his parents have become increasingly concerned about his future. Jefferson spends most of his time in a wheelchair and uses a special touchscreen augmentative communication device. In addition to their concerns about the future, Jefferson’s father also harbors considerable guilt that he or his wife might have caused their son’s disabilities.
Using the module readings and at least one peer-reviewed article from the Argosy University online library resources or a reputable organization, research traumatic brain injuries.
Based on your research, respond to the following:
Summarize research related to the influence of nature versus nurture on the cause of Jefferson’s disabilities.
Provide a hypothesis of Jefferson’s likely prognosis. What supports or services might maximize this outcome?
Evaluate what Jefferson’s future might have been if he were being raised in the U.S. in the 1940s.
Write a 3–5-page paper in Word format (not counting the title and reference pages). Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Be sure to include a title page and reference page, also in APA format. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M4_A2.doc.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
