Be creative here! Part 1 : Develop your research question. What is it that you want to know? A good research question will tell the reader exactly what your study is about and help you maintain your focus throughout the research process. Part 2 : Develop your survey questions. Stick to what you really want to know and be sure that your survey questions will get you the answers you need. Part 3 : Conduct your survey. There are many ways to gather data. You could survey people in your daily life, email your classmates (if possible), survey your friends using technology, etc. Part 4 : Write up your results in a report using the following format: Introduction to the purpose of the study. Include your research question here. Methodology : What are your survey questions and how did you collect the data? Results : Put your data here in the form of a list or table. Include appropriate proportions or means for the data. Include confidence intervals for your data and what they mean in the context of your study. Discussion : What conclusions can you draw from your data? .

ACTIVITY 1
Chosen Research Design: Qualitative
Why do you think this design is appropriate to your research interest?
Based on my understanding of qualitative research, I believe it can be appropriate for certain types of research questions. In my view, qualitative research is particularly useful for exploring complex phenomena, gaining insights into people's experiences and perspectives, and developing theory. I also recognize that it can be valuable in applied settings, such as healthcare or social work, where understanding people's experiences is crucial for improving practice.
Guide Questions
1. Did you remember the research design listed in the table?
YES, I have remembered all the research design listed in the table.
2. What other research designs did you recall which is/ are not listed in the table?
Longitudinal Study
Cross-sectional Study
Survey Research
Action Research
Participatory Action Research
Grounded Theory
Ethnographic Research
3. Was it easy or hard to determine the research design to be used in your selected topic or interest?
For me, it is easy because in the first place I already have an idea where to start. I believe when you select a topic, you already considered what design you will use.
4. What are the factors that you consider in selecting a research design for your study?
As a researcher, I must consider various factors when selecting a qualitative research design for my study. These include the research question, the purpose of the study, the nature of the phenomenon being studied, and the available resources and time frame. Additionally, I must reflect on my own philosophical and theoretical perspectives to ensure that the chosen design aligns with my worldview and research goals.
Reflection
How does research design make your study colorful/ interesting?
As a researcher, I have come to appreciate how qualitative research design can add color and interest to a study. By using methods such as open-ended interviews, observations, and document analysis, I can capture the rich and complex experiences, perspectives, and contexts of the participants. This type of research allows me to delve deeper into the phenomenon being studied and gain a more nuanced understanding of it.
One of the benefits of using qualitative research is the ability to create vivid descriptions, quotes, and narratives that add depth and meaning to the study. It's fascinating to see how the data can come to life and offer a unique perspective on the topic. Additionally, I've found that unexpected findings often emerge during qualitative research, which can add to the intrigue and interest of the study.
Overall, I believe that qualitative research design offers a powerful way to explore the intricacies and nuances of human experience. It enables me to create a study that is more compelling and engaging, as well as provides insights that cannot be obtained through other research methods.

Introduction to Environmental Science
FINAL PROJECT
The learning objectives for this class are the following:
-understand the basic environmental processes that shape the natural world around them.
-evaluate the reciprocal relationship between human and environmental systems.
-consider environmental problems from both a global and a local perspective.
-understand the impact of human decisions on the natural environment (both positive and negative).
-understand some of the ways in which scientists gather information, as well as, analyze and communicate their findings.
Everything we did in class was aimed at improved your understanding and skill related to these learning objectives. I don’t want you all to leave as scientists, but I want you to be able to navigate scientific information related to environmental issues with some understanding and ability to take it apart and use it to make well-informed decisions.
The final project is designed to give you the opportunity to reflect the improvement in your understanding and skill and to consider your relationship to the environment. For this project, you will select a behavior that you engage in, that has an impact on the environment. This behavior will be the foundation of a research question that investigate and use to inform your perspective on this particular environmental beha ...
Assignment Surveys and R Assignment Surveys and Response R.docx
Assignment: Surveys and R
Assignment: Surveys and Response Rates
As you read in Chapter 1, research designed to assess and answer questions about the current state of affairs is
descriptive research.
It is called descriptive research because no variables are manipulated (as you would find in an experimental research design). Rather, the goal of descriptive research is to provide a
snapshot
of thoughts, beliefs, or behaviors of groups of people at a given time. One common type of descriptive research is
survey research
. A survey is a type of self-report measure that can be administered either through an
interview
or written
questionnaire.
Interviews are surveys in which researchers read questions to participants either in person or by telephone. The questions are either
structured
or
unstructured
. When using a structured interview technique, the researcher predetermines the questions to ask participants and records their responses. An example of a structured interview technique is a phone call during the evening at home requesting a “few minutes of your time” to ask your opinions about candidates in an upcoming political election. In an unstructured interview, the researcher asks the respondents to talk freely about a particular topic and records their answers. An example of an unstructured interview technique is a
focus group
setting, wherein a number of people meet at the same time to share their thoughts and opinions about a particular topic, such as their emotional reactions to viewing advertising campaigns.
Questionnaires are different from interviews because participants complete these assessments on their own, and usually without supervision. The other difference is that participants complete questionnaires in a
fixed-format
. This means participants answer questions in the exact same order and select their answers from various response choices provided (e.g., multiple choice or true/false) rather than freely reporting what comes to mind. An example of a questionnaire is a poll located in a magazine questioning you about your present satisfaction in your romantic relationship.
Consider the last time you were asked to complete a survey either by interview or questionnaire. Did you participate? Why, or why not? Though survey methods are a good way to collect a lot of data quickly, participants are not always eager to take the time and effort required to complete them. For this Assignment, you select a particular survey method to collect data on a study idea. You analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the method and consider strategies for increasing participant response rates.
To prepare
Review again the assigned pages from Chapter 6 and Chapter 8 of your course text.
Think about the study idea that you developed for the Discussion this week.
Think about what types of data you would collect utilizing various survey methods (e.g., interviews and questionnaires, focus groups).
Consider strategies researchers.

Before 1918, approximately
60%
of the wolves in the New Mexico and Arizona region were male, and
40%
were female. However, cattle ranchers in this area have made a determined effort to exterminate wolves. From 1918 to the present, approximately
70%
of wolves in the region are male, and
30%
are female. Biologists suspect that male wolves are more likely than females to return to an area where the population has been greatly reduced. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

Before 1918, approximately
60%
of the wolves in the New Mexico and Arizona region were male, and
40%
were female. However, cattle ranchers in this area have made a determined effort to exterminate wolves. From 1918 to the present, approximately
70%
of wolves in the region are male, and
30%

Becoming a ManagerElaine has worked in the IMCU of a communi.docx
Becoming a Manager
Elaine has worked in the IMCU of a community hospital for 11 years. She is one of the best nurses, and serves as a preceptor and a resource for other nurses on the unit. Elaine has made numerous contributions to the unit. She has presented training classes, in-services, and booklets. Elaine has been the day shift charge nurse for 5 years.
In January, the unit manager decided to retire. The IMCU manager position was posted. A very unpopular nurse from another unit bid on the position, as well as a nurse from another hospital. The staff has approached Elaine, imploring her to bid for the job. They tell her she will be a terrific manager, and they all love her. Elaine is very happy with her job, but she knows that things will change with a new manager.
After serious deliberation, Elaine bids on the position. Her qualifications are undisputable, and she is offered the position. She is warned, however, that her relationship with her co-workers will not be the same. She has long been a leader, but she must now see herself as a manager. Try to imagine that you are Elaine:
What steps will you take to initiate this change?
How will you establish your new position with the staff?
What type of management/leadership style would you employ?
How do the “Cores of Credibility” apply to your new role?
Your response should consist of complete sentences and should be at least one complete paragraph, but it should be no more than three paragraphs in length.
Post your individual responses by the end of the day on Friday of Module 2.
Read the postings of other students, and thoughtfully respond to at least two other student postings by end of the day on Sunday of Module 2.

The McDonald’s ‘Beef Fries’ Controversy
“Hindus and vegetarians all over the world feel shocked and betrayed by McDonald's deception
and ultimate greed.”
- Attorney Harish Bharti, on filing the lawsuit against McDonald’s, in May 2001.
“These are the ways the fries are made in the US, and we don’t have any plans to change.”
- Walt Riker, McDonald’s spokesperson, in May 2001.
A CONTROVERSY ERUPTS
In May 2001, a class action lawsuit
1
was filed against the world‘s largest fast-food chain
McDonald‘s, in Seattle, US. The lawsuit alleged that the company had, for over a decade, duped
vegetarian customers into eating French fries
2
that contained beef extracts. The lawsuit followed a
spate of media reports detailing how the French fries served at McDonald‘s were falsely promoted
as being ‗100% vegetarian.‘
Although McDonald‘s initially declined to comment on the issue, the company issued a
‗conditional apology,‘ admitting to using beef flavoring in the fries. The furore over the matter
seemed to be settling down, when to McDonald‘s horror, some of its restaurants in India were
vandalized. Activists of Hindu fundamentalist groups – the Shiv Sena, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad
(VHP) and the Bajrang Dal, staged a demonstration in front of the McDonald‘s head office in
Delhi protesting the alleged use of beef flavouring. They submitted a memorandum to the Prime
Minister, demanding the closure of all McDonald‘s outlets in the country.
Activists also staged protests in front of McDonald‘s restaurants in south Mumbai and Thane.
Mobs ransacked the outlet at Thane, broke the glass panes and smeared the McDonald‘s mascot
Ronald with cow dung. About 30 people were arrested and later let off on bail. Company officials
estimated the loss to the outlet at Rs 2 million.
Officials at McDonald‘s India quickly announced that the vegetarian products served in India did
not have any non-vegetarian content (Refer Exhibit I for details). However, despite this
reassurance, the anti-McDonald‘s wave refused to die down.
Meanwhile, more cases were being filed against McDonald‘s – t.

Because this is an interdisciplinary humanities course, so far this quarter we have analyzed literary texts intended for a child audience alongside historical documents, journalistic writing about current events, a documentary film, and even a music video. Choose one literary text that we have read so far (by Hesse, Muñoz Ryan, or Taylor) and explain how reading it in tandem with one of these other textual or audio-visual sources (the Winsor article, the 1959 Declaration,
Fear and Learning at Hoover Elementary
, the McFadden article, or the music video for “Formation”) helped to enhance your learning experience. What connections did you draw between the two sources? Why was it important for you to examine the non-literary source alongside the literary one? How did this help you to further develop your understanding of American childhood? Please write at least one long, detailed paragraph, observing standard conventions of strong academic writing.

Because of the difficulties that expatriates face, some firms have b.docx
Because of the difficulties that expatriates face, some firms have begun a policy of “inpatriation” (a concept discussed further in the Debate section of chapter 13), whereby they relocate foreigners to the host country, with the expectation that after a period of time, they will replace expatriates. While this provides the MNE with a source of workers who do not face cultural obstacles, some significant problems remain. First, inpatriates, who are paid the going rate in the MNE’s home country, are often disappointed or upset when they go to the host country, where salaries are much lower. Second, many inpatriates are ineffective because of their ambiguous position. While the headquarters views inpatriates as “us” because of their time in the home country, other HCNs also view them as “us” because of their common ethnicity.
1.Given the pros and cons of expatriation and inpatriation, which do you feel is more effective for MNEs? Would certain situation call for one strategy over another? What could an MNE do to alleviate some of the difficulties of inpatriation?
2.
MNEs operate in multiple locations, negotiating through a complicated web of formal and informal institutions that are different from country to country. An MNE is successful, in part, because of its ability to work within a complex network of laws and values to create a global, cross-cultural entity. The question is could labor unions do the same? While union presence is strong in some countries, it is nearly absent in others, so that workers in those countries have relative little protection from potentially unfair actions. What is the feasibility of establishing a global (or semiglobal) labor union to cover these countries? How would they overcome institutional obstacles presented by governments and by MNEs? What would be the pros and cons of such a movement?

Because Eileen Dover, the CEO of Good For You! Bakery, began her.docx
Because Eileen Dover, the CEO of Good For You! Bakery, began her business with limited background in data architecture, some historical data that was saved in legacy systems is in bad shape. For example, sales date information was entered haphazardly, in different formats; sometimes sales amounts included a dollar sign and cents to the right of the decimal, and sometimes they didn’t; and the alphanumeric code she initially used to designate products is confusing to her new managers.
Ms. Dover wants to ensure that she can move data from her legacy system to SAS®. She had one of her new IT people produce a pipe-delimited data file in .txt format. He was not able to do much data validation/cleaning on his end, and Ms. Dover wants to know if this crucial step can be completed in SAS®. She wants you to do the following:
Import the legacy data file (
Week 4 Assignment Data
) into SAS®. (Note that if you look at the .txt file using a text editing program such as Notepad, you can see anomalies in the data; for example, dates and dollar amounts are represented in different formats.)
Create a report that:
Lists sales, by month, with subtotals and a grand total
Interprets all dates correctly and displays them in the same format
Interprets all dollar values correctly and displays them in the format $99
Add comments to the SAS® code to explain what each section of the code does, so that your team can apply similar to logic to cleaning/validating other data files.

Beauty, Effort, and Misrepresentation HowBeauty Work Affect.docx
Beauty, Effort, and Misrepresentation: How
Beauty Work Affects Judgments of Moral
Character and Consumer Preferences
ADRIANA SAMPER
LINYUN W. YANG
MICHELLE E. DANIELS
Women engage in a variety of beauty practices, or “beauty work,” to enhance their
physical appearance, such as applying cosmetics, tanning, or exercising. Although
the rewards of physical attractiveness are well documented, perceptions of both the
women who engage in efforts to enhance their appearance and the high-effort
beauty products marketed to them are not well understood. Across seven studies,
we demonstrate that consumers judge women who engage in certain types of ex-
tensive beauty work as possessing poorer moral character. These judgments occur
only for effortful beauty work perceived as transformative (significantly altering ap-
pearance) and transient (lasting a relatively short time), such that they emerge
within cosmetics and tanning, yet not skincare or exercise. This effect is mediated
by the perception that putting high effort into one’s appearance signals a willingness
to misrepresent one’s true self, and translates into lower purchase intentions for
higher-effort cosmetics. We identify several boundary conditions, including the at-
tractiveness of the woman performing the beauty work and whether the effort is at-
tributed to external norms or causes. In examining how beauty work elicits moral
judgments, we also shed light on why effortful cosmetic use is viewed negatively,
yet effortful products continue to be commercially successful.
Keywords: aesthetics, beauty, beauty work, effort, cosmetics, moral judgments,
true self, innate self
T hroughout history, women have gone to great lengthsto enhance their physical appearance. Queen Elizabeth I inspired a generation of women to coat theirfaces with lead to achieve the perfect pale complexion, and
Victorian ladies removed their ribs to whittle down their
waists (Corson 1972/2003). While modern beauty rituals
may be less extreme, we continue to see consumers engage
in extensive “beauty work,” defined as the beauty practices
people perform on themselves to elicit certain benefits
within a social hierarchy (Kwan and Trautner 2009). These
practices are often effortful, such as popular multistep
Korean skincare regimens (Chang 2011) or trends in con-
touring and strobing, where layers of make-up are carefully
applied to highlight facial features (Cardellino 2015). Even
mundane routines such as styling hair or applying cosmet-
ics often require significant time and care. Interestingly,
while research acknowledges that physical attractiveness
can be enhanced through beauty work (Etcoff et al. 2011;
Kwan and Trautner 2009), it has not examined how the

1. What position/positions in your organization are accountable for workplace relations in your organization? What impact do they have? What programs are in place to impact relations at work? Provide specific examples.
My organization is unique. As a member of the IG, I am tasked with inspecting other organizations for compliance, readiness, resource management, and training. Most military organizations have a commander who is responsible for workplace relations in the organizations. The commander ‘s responsibilities include executing the mission, leading people, managing resources, and improving the unit (Air Force Instruction 1-2, 2014).
The commander is responsible for the organization but is not alone. The First Sergeant is responsible for ensuring the force understands the commander’s goals, objectives, and policies. The first Sergeant must communicate with other leaders in the unit and be familiar with personnel programs, professional military education, financial needs, family matters to include housing (Air Force Instruction 36-2113, 2014).
There are many other personnel responsible for workplace relations in the organization. Supervisors at all levels, Equal Opportunity, the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response office, the Inspector General, and the legal office. All these key organizations play a role in the organizations under their span of control.
2. If you were an HR manager in a private-sector organization, what key programs would you implement to improve employee-employer relations? Why?
The first program I would implement is streamlined communication. If assigned to a large organization I would look at developing a smart phone application to help with the follow of communication. Employees want to know where they fit in the organization and what they are working toward (Smith, 2017).
Another program I would ensure was developed was a recognition program. Gallup recently completed a survey showing fifty-three percent of employees are not engaged, another survey showed workers who give their management a lower rating is more likely to apply or interview for other positions (Duran, 2020).
Finally, a program I believe is essential today is a career development program. In a survey in 2018, forty-two percent of millennials said their current employer provide learning, development, and training opportunities (Witkin, 2018). Eighty six percent of millennials say they would stay at their current job if the company offered development training opportunities (Duran, 2020).
3. How would you determine the added value of your programs?
As with most programs a Return on Investment (ROI) Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) should be performed. A BCR greater than one shows the program has worth and is not losing the organization money (Kaminski, & Lopes, 2009). ROI was deemed impossible to calculate for human resources, but that is no longer the case (SHRM, 2016).

Bear in mind what you learned about Imagism as you answer one of the following questions geared towards showcasing what you've learned about this aspect of the Modernist movement. NO OUTSIDE SOURCES may be used for this and other discussion posts.
1) Pound’s definition of the image was “that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in an instant of time." How does "In a Station at the Metro" fall in line with this definition? What is the intellectual and emotional complex being presented here?
2) If Imagist poetry deals with fleeting associations, what role is Helen as a figure playing in this poem? What revisions are being made to the myth in terms of how Helen is represented?
3) William Carlos Williams is famous for turning ordinary objects into poetic subjects with meaning. How does he accomplish this in “The Red Wheelbarrow”? What overall tone or feeling are you left with at the end of this? How does “The Red Wheelbarrow” work within the scope of Imagism?

Continuous Variable
The continuous variable I selected is “Problems w/Public Health Clinics”. The means for this data is 7.43, the median is 7.4335 and the mode is 0. For the variable, the mean is the best measure it incorporates every value of this variable making it more representative of the variable (Frankfort-Nachmias, Leon-Guerrero, & Davis, 2020). The standard deviation is 5.11961, this number represents the difference of the data points from the mean. This number means that the scores regarding problems with health clinics differed from the mean by 5.11961. The variance is 26.210 describes the degree to which the data points are spread. I would describe this variable as having a lot of variability and extreme. Those that had no problems with public clinics more than double the amount of those that had a median amount of problems and triple those that had lots of problems.
Categorical Variable
Categorical variables are nominal or ordinal and cannot be described with mean or median. The best central tendency for these variables are mode, which is the score that shows up most frequently (Frankfort-Nachmias, Leon-Guerrero, & Davis, 2020). The categorical variable I selected is “country’s present economic condition compared to 12 months ago”, is mode is a tie for same and better all with the frequency of 2872 and a percent of 27.8%. This variable has low variability. Most of the participants believe there has been a small change or no change in economic conditions over the past 12 months.

Documentary, The Age of Consequences (Links to an external site.)
The consensus of the American security experts interviewed for the documentary is that climate changes are occurring and that a certain amount of change is already built in and will continue to occur over the course of our lifetimes.
Many places in the documentary describe large-scale displacements of people due to changing climate factors where millions and tens of millions of people have been forced to re-locate to secure food and water. The experts unanimously point out the de-stabilizing effects of these mass migrations for the countries who receive them.
Do we have an ethical obligation to assist people caught up in these large-scale movements of people to help them secure the basic necessities of food, water, and a secure way of life. Why or why not?

Overview
Theme:
In keeping with the topic of the class this semester and the year’s theme of love your neighbor, the theme of the prayer assignment this semester calls you to explore a world religion. Part of exploring world religions and loving your neighbor includes broadening your knowledge of spirituality, both of religious and humanist traditions. For your prayer/reflection assignment, you may choose from a world religion or a humanist tradition. For example, if the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS) has interest to you, your prayer plan may include a traditional LDS prayer. If you are an atheist, then you may wish to research humanist traditions or share a piece of literature, music, or art that expresses your spirituality or foundational belief.
Format:
Similar to your freshman and sophomore year, your prayer outline is to be formatted as follows. (A sample prayer follows these instructions.)
1. Upper right corner of page one (1): Name, Block, Teacher’s name, Date of Prayer
2. Broken into the following sections: Opening; Brief explanation of the religion, group, or your world view; Prayer or Text; Reflection; Intentions; Closing.
3. Bold and underlined section headings.
Section Details:
Opening
Explain how you will open the prayer or reflection time. For example, will you ring the prayer bowl, invite everyone to do the sign of the cross, or invite them to a moment of silence?
Summary
In one or two paragraphs summarize the religion, group, or what has contributed to your world view. Either during or after your summary, be sure to cite the two resources you consulted or that have contributed to your world view.

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.
