NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 2
Abstract
Three research articles were reviewed that investigated the use of the NEO PI-R with
undergraduate college students. The articles concerned three issues concerning the personality
and behavior of students: the differences between students who planned to attend graduate
school and those who did not; the personality variables associated with apathy; and factors
related to college students’ psychological sense of community. The NEO PI-R proved to be a
valuable tool in assessing the attitudes of the undergraduate students in each study.

Impact of Personality on Individuals’ Self-Esteem

PSYCH 665
Professor Teresa Neal

Impact of Personality on Individuals’ Self-Esteem
There are various definitions of self-esteem as described by different authors in the field of psychological research. It can also be defined as the general or typical feeling that an individual has about himself in a certain context and time (Heimpel et al., 2006). Andreassen et al. (2017), stated that self-esteem is an individual’s sense of worth or the level at which an individual likes or values himself. Self-esteem is individuals’ personal evaluation regarding their capabilities, importance, value, or worth (Pizzolli & Strapparava, 2019). Personality refers to the consistent set of behaviors that form a person’s distinctive character. These behaviors have emotional and cognitive patterns that have unique characteristics. An individual’s self-esteem is largely determined by their inherent personality traits, which include extraversion, neuroticism, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness (Pizzolli & Strapparava, 2019). Previous research has linked personality with self-esteem but didn’t establish the extent to which self-esteem is influenced by personality. This research seeks to establish how individual personality traits influence an individual’s self-esteem.
Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this research is to establish the relationship between personality and self-esteem and determine the extent to which personality traits can be used to predict an individual’s level of self-esteem. The personality traits, which include extraversion, neuroticism, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness, are usually referred to as the Big Five and are described in the five personality traits model. Each trait individually affects an individual’s self-esteem, but the most dominant traits determine an individual’s level of self-esteem.
Significance of the Study
Understanding the relationship between personality and self-esteem is important because it would enable psychologists to establish the psychological outcomes associated with various personality traits which would be helpful in the prediction of outcomes such as personality disorders, job performance, divorce, and academic achievement. Also, personality traits determine the temperament level of an individual and their overall behavioral tendencies. For example, individuals with low temperament are likely to be negative about themselves, thus, have low self-esteem. The findings of this study would enable therapists to precisely predict the patient outcomes based on their personality traits and understand the type of therapy that would suit their personality. For instance, individuals with low self-esteem may not respond to therapeutic sessions that are offered in group sessions since they cannot actively participate in that context.

Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles.docxdickonsondorris
Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles: a quantitative methods article and a qualitative methods article. These do not need to be on the same topic, but if you have a research topic in mind for your proposal (see Assessment 5), you may wish to pick something similar for this assessment. Read each article carefully.
Then, in a 2–3-page assessment, address the following elements:
1 Summarize the research question and hypothesis, the research methods, and the overall findings.
2 Compare the research methodologies used in each study. In what ways are the methodologies similar? In what ways are they different? (Be sure to use the technical psychological terms we are studying.)
3 Describe the sample and sample size for each study. Which one used a larger sample and why? How were participants selected?
4 Describe the data collection process for each study. What methods were used to collect the data? Surveys? Observations? Interviews? Be specific and discuss the instruments or measures fully—what do they measure? How is the test designed?
5 Summarize the data analysis process for each study. How was the data analyzed? Were statistics used? Were interviews coded?
6 In conclusion, craft 1–2 paragraphs explaining how these two articles illustrate the main differences between quantitative and qualitative research.
Additional Requirements
· Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
· APA formatting: Your assessment should be formatted according to APA (6th ed.) style and formatting.
· Length: A typical response will be 2–3 typed and double-spaced pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
Research Methods
There are many different types of research studies, and the type of study that is done depends very much on the research question. Some studies demand strictly numerical data, such as a comparison of GPA among different college majors or weight loss among different types of eating programs. Others require more in-depth data, like interview responses. Such studies might include the lived experience of people that have been through a terrorist attack or understanding the experience of being physically disabled on a college campus. While there are a number of different types of studies that can be done, all of them fall under two basic categories: quantitative and qualitative.
Quantitative Research
Quantitative research deals with numerical data. This means that any topic you study in a quantitative study must be quantifiable—grades, weight, height, depression, and intelligence are all things that can be quantified on some scale of measurement. Quantitative data is often considered hard data—numbers are seen as concrete, irrefutable evidence, but we have to take into account a number of factors that could impact such data. Errors in measurement and recording of such data, as well as the influence of other factors outside those in the study, make for ...

For my final project I am choosing the environmental influences on.docxrhetttrevannion
For my final project I am choosing the environmental influences on personality particularly about childhood experiences and their effect on an individual’s personalities. I am contrasting childhood experiences that are caused by their environment to the effect on their personality, I will use the correlation research method. A questionnaire will be used in order to obtain the information I would need. This method would admit me to have a larger sample base, have a better image of the relationship, and numerous variables providing for better research circumstances down the road. The disadvantage to this technique would be, I would not have a personal relationship from those apart of the study and this could cause a lack of dishonesty. Second, establishing a questionnaire that was both dependable and accurate could be an issue. Lastly, I would only get a view at what those in the group went through.
Ethically, I would run into a problem of confidentiality and making sure all of the questionnaires were kept secret and those taking them were offered secrecy. Anyone who take part in the activity would be able to eliminate themselves from the research if they wanted to and if they left the documents it would be destroyed. I would maintain their best interest and would be real and honest with them regarding what the study is being used for and why it was being done.

Introduction
Autism researchers continue to grapple with activities that best serve the purpose of fostering positive interpersonal relationships for children with autism. Children have benefited from therapy sessions that provide ongoing activities to aid their ability to engage in healthy social interactions. However, less is known about how K–12 schools might implement programs for this group of individuals to provide additional opportunities for growth, or even if and how school programs would be of assistance in the end. There is a gap in understanding the possibilities of implementing such programs in schools to foster the social and mental health of children with autism. The six articles I selected for this assignment present research on different types of therapeutic programs that have been used to promote social interactions in children with autism.

Wimpory and Nash provided a case study
for implementing music interaction therapy as part of play therapy aimed at cultivating communication skills in infants with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The researchers based their argument on films taken of play-based therapy sessions that introduced music interaction therapy. To assess the success of music play, Wimpory and Nash filmed the follow-up play-based interaction between the parent and the child. The follow-up interactions revealed that 20 months after the introduction of music play, the child developed prolonged playful interaction with both the psychologist and the parent. The follow-up films also revealed that the child initiated spontaneously pretend play during these later sessions. After the introduction of music, the child began to develop appropriate language skills.
Since the publication date for this case study is 1999, the results are dated. Although this study found that music interaction therapy is useful, emerging research in the field has undoubtedly changed in the time since this article was published. Wimpory and Nash wrote this article for a specific audience, including psychologists and researchers working with infants diagnosed with ASD. Their focus means that others beyond these fields may not find the findings applicable to their work.

Autism is a complicated progressive disability. Researchers think that Autism exhibits itself during the age of 18 to 36 months old. The illness is the effect of a neurological condition that has an influence on natural brain performance, effecting promotion of the individual’s social and communication abilities. A student with an autism disorder will have a problem with non-verbal skills, and difficulty with activities which involve an environment of play and/or joking. They could have uncommon replies to society, connections to items, refusal to accept an adjustment in their daily routines, and severe behavior challenges.
Autism Challenges
I am Interested in understanding Autism behavior challenges to improve classroom management. As a Special Education teacher understanding Autism behaviors can be very beneficial. A projection of 1 in every 68 citizens in the country has various types of autism; boys are more prevalent than girls. Several professionals think that this (ASD) is linked hereditary or through the atmosphere. Studies show in a classroom of 18 or more. Typically, at least two of the classroom children for each one student are diagnosed with (ASD). Children with (ASD) show disruptive behaviors, and many of them have problems like harming self and anger tantrum. Behaviors form anxiety for parents and specialists, because it inconsistent with the development of desired behaviors and communication skills (DSM-5, 2013), and have risks on child himself and others. Findings show after researching over a hundred teachers in a public major school of students who strugglers with ASDs.
Lack of classroom management, and inconsistent strategies played a huge factor in behaviors. An effort to be made by schools to address the teacher’s perception of causes of challenging behavior as it has an influence on their choice of management strategies. Also, the teachers agreed that the behavior was learned,
and could be improved, but they did not often use strategies that are commonly considered to be effective, at least within the fields of ABA and PBS (Baron, Groden, & Lipsitt 2006). Consistency and reinforcement, they are solutions for resolving occurring behaviors, which increase the likelihood that behavior will continue to occur or occur more often (Cooper, Heron, & Heward, 2007).

The Newly Revised Strong Interest Inventory: A Profile Interpretation for Rehabilitation Counselors
This peer reviewed scholarly journal article seeks to examine the interest patterns that are predictive of success and satisfaction as a rehabilitation counselor using the Strong Interests Inventory. The strength of the SII lies in the variety of which is useful in counseling and provide information that is usually not found with other interest inventories. Interpreting the SII profile begins by looking at the individual's GOT scores. The data and ideas from this interpretation can be used to improve the selection and recruitment of rehabilitation counselors. These findings can help career counselors predict which students and workers will be interested in a particular field.
Abstract from the author:
Using aggregate scores from 281 female and 133 male rehabilitation counselors, the researchers developed prototypical "Strong Interest Inventory" (SII) profiles. They used these profiles to explore the interests, preferences, and professional identity of rehabilitation counselors. Using the General Occupational Themes (GOTs), Basic Interest Scales (BISs), Occupational Scales (OSs), and Personal Style Scales (PSSs), which make up the newly revised SII, the authors obtained empirically defined prototypical profiles for female and male rehabilitation counselors. The Social-Artistic Holland-code dyad was a reoccurring theme across the each profile. Although there are differences in each of the SII scales across genders, the authors found congruence not only within the scales of a particular gender but also across genders. Consistencies and inconsistencies among the GOTs, BISs, OSs, and PSSs are discussed. Implications for counselor recruitment and practice are also discussed.

The purpose of the investigation was to evaluate the effects of SII completion and participation an feedback and interpretation on the social cognitive career beliefs of first-year college students. Application of self-efficacy theory to the career decision- tasks and behaviors, whereas high levels of CDMSE lead to increased participation in career decision-making activities. The use of a group interpretation strategy that incorporated sources of performance accomplishments and verbal persuasion as means of providing SI feedback increased participants' CDMSE.

Article #1
1. What is the title of the article? Provide a reference for the article in APA format.
Mueller, D. R., Schmidt, S. J., & Roder, V. (2013). Integrated psychological therapy: effectiveness in schizophrenia inpatient settings related to patients' age. The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, 21(3), 231-241.
2. What is the purpose of the article?
The article investigated whether the Integrated Philological therapy is more effective in younger patients of ages 40 and above. The authors then compared the effectiveness of IPT of young patients with that of average years of 40 and above. The study also investigated whether treatment as usual or unspecified group activities produce different outcomes.
3. What is the hypothesis of the study? In other words, what claims do the authors make in the article? What are the outcomes of the study, that is, the conclusions that the authors made as a result of the study?
There are no differences in the effectiveness of Integrated Psychological therapy between a group of younger patients (age 40 and below) and that of the average years (ages 40 and above). The study also hypothesized that there no differences in the treatment outcome of the group of younger patients (age 40). The study also assessed there were differences in the treatment outcome of the group of older patients (age 40 and above) treated using specified and unspecified treatment.
4. What variables (factors) are being looking at as an influence on abnormal behavior?
The study investigated the influences of age (variable) and the use of Integrated Psychological Treatment on the treatment of schizophrenia. Another variable was the treatment options (Unspecified and Specified treatment). Other variables include the global cognitive scores, social cognition, psychopathology and social functioning.
5. If these variables or the relationship between these variables have been studied before, what have other studies found? This shows historical significance.
Past studies have shown the effect of age on Schizophrenia. Older people suffering from Schizophrenia often suffer from cognitive impairment compared to younger patients. There are fewer therapy approaches to middle and averagely mentally ill patients.
6. Describe the research design (e.g., descriptive, correlateional, experimental) that was used in the study.
Standard meta-analytical procedures. The study compared category of two age groups. Had a total of 15 IPT controlled studies with 632 schizophrenic patients.
7. Do you think the research in this article was conducted in an ethical manner? Why or why not?
Yes. The study obtained ethical approval from the relevant authorities. The study also recruited participants after getting an informed consent from each study participants.

What is your research question?
My research question is “Does stress reduction efficacy vary between relaxation response treatment and mindfulness-based programs for female undergraduate students between the ages of 18-25?”
The research question is important because previous studies have only provided empirical evidence demonstrating the efficacy of each method on its own and a comparison of the methods within other controlled populations. Research has investigated the effects of these stress-reduction methods within specific subgroups of the population, but not within the population that is targeted in this study. It is also important because
the majority of research has focused on the effects of stress-reduction techniques on medical students, healthcare professionals, and undergraduate pr.
Emancipatory Research: A Synthesis of Quantitative Evidenceiosrjce
Emancipatory research challenges conventional ways in which knowledge is constructed within
educational research. Using the Johanna Briggs methods, the authors conducted a systematic critical appraisal
of the 45 quantitative emancipatory research articles published between 2000 and 2011 and provide a synthesis
of findings. Type of studies, participants, and outcomes measure served as criteria for considering studies. As
the results shown, 125 key findings were assigned into 26 groups, 12 thematic categories, five overarching
descriptions: agency in community health; instruction practice and student engagement; learning experience
impacts student performance; participation, student characteristic and programmatic opportunity; and
university support, international education, evaluation, and professor specialization. The findings suggested
that: systematic appraisal practice could be used for other syntheses; teaching emancipatory research methods
in graduate school is important; course design, teacher program preparation, and teaching activities should
closely represent societal needs, social culture, and demonstrate an awareness of students’ voice and cultural
backgrounds.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
· Discuss the issues created by generalizing research results to other populations, including potential problems using college students as research participants.
· Discuss issues to consider regarding generalization of research results to other cultures and ethnic groups.
· Describe the potential problem of generalizing to other experimenters and suggest possible solutions.
· Discuss the importance of replications, distinguishing between exact replications and conceptual replications.
· Distinguish between narrative literature reviews and meta-analyses.
Page 292IN THIS CHAPTER, WE WILL CONSIDER THE ISSUE OF GENERALIZATION OF RESEARCH FINDINGS. When a single study is conducted with a particular sample and procedure, can the results then be generalized to other populations of research participants, or to other ways of manipulating or measuring the variables? Recall from Chapter 4 that internal validity refers to the ability to infer that there is a causal relationship between variables. External validity is the extent to which findings may be generalized.
GENERALIZING TO OTHER POPULATIONS
Even though a researcher may randomly assign participants to experimental conditions, rarely are participants randomly selected from the general population. As we noted in Chapters 7 and 9, the individuals who participate in psychological research are usually selected because they are available, and the most available population consists of college students—or more specifically, first- and second-year students enrolled in the introductory psychology course to satisfy a general education requirement. They may also be from a particular college or university, may be volunteers, or may be mostly males or mostly females. So, are our research findings limited to these types of subjects, or can we generalize our findings to a more general population? After considering these issues, we will examine the larger issue of culture and how research findings can be generalized to different cultural groups.
College Students
Smart (1966) found that college students were studied in over 70% of the articles published between 1962 and 1964 in the Journal of Experimental Psychology and the Journal of Abnormal and Social Psychology. Sears (1986) reported similar percentages in 1980 and 1985 in a variety of social psychology journals; Arnett (2008) found that 67% of the articles in the 2007 volume of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology used college student samples. The potential problem is that such studies use a highly restricted population. Sears points out that most of the students are first-year students and sophomores taking the introductory psychology class. They therefore tend to be young and to possess the characteristics of emerging adults: a sense of self-identity that is still developing, social and political attitudes that are in a state of flux, a high need for peer approval, and unstable peer relationships. They are intelligent ...

For my final project I am choosing the environmental influences on personality particularly about childhood experiences and their effect on an individual’s personalities. I am contrasting childhood experiences that are caused by their environment to the effect on their personality, I will use the correlation research method. A questionnaire will be used in order to obtain the information I would need. This method would admit me to have a larger sample base, have a better image of the relationship, and numerous variables providing for better research circumstances down the road. The disadvantage to this technique would be, I would not have a personal relationship from those apart of the study and this could cause a lack of dishonesty. Second, establishing a questionnaire that was both dependable and accurate could be an issue. Lastly, I would only get a view at what those in the group went through.
Ethically, I would run into a problem of confidentiality and making sure all of the questionnaires were kept secret and those taking them were offered secrecy. Anyone who take part in the activity would be able to eliminate themselves from the research if they wanted to and if they left the documents it would be destroyed. I would maintain their best interest and would be real and honest with them regarding what the study is being used for and why it was being done. Still, because there isn’t a personal relationship but just general on this could be difficult to prove and cause doubt and that could be an ethical crisis.

The strength of the SII lies in the variety of which is useful in counseling and provide information that is usually not found with other interest inventories. Interpreting the SII profile begins by looking at the individual's GOT scores. The data and ideas from this interpretation can be used to improve the selection and recruitment of rehabilitation counselors. These findings can help career counselors predict which students and workers will be interested in a particular field.
Abstract from the author:
Using aggregate scores from 281 female and 133 male rehabilitation counselors, the researchers developed prototypical "Strong Interest Inventory" (SII) profiles. They used these profiles to explore the interests, preferences, and professional identity of rehabilitation counselors. Using the General Occupational Themes (GOTs), Basic Interest Scales (BISs), Occupational Scales (OSs), and Personal Style Scales (PSSs), which make up the newly revised SII, the authors obtained empirically defined prototypical profiles for female and male rehabilitation counselors. The Social-Artistic Holland-code dyad was a reoccurring theme across the each profile. Although there are differences in each of the SII scales across genders, the authors found congruence not only within the scales of a particular gender but also across genders. Consistencies and inconsistencies among the GOTs, BISs, OSs, and PSSs are discussed. Implications for counselor recruitment and practice are also discussed.

Effects of Strong Interest Inventory Feedback on Career Beliefs
This scholarly article explored the most frequently used career interest inventory SSI. The purpose of the investigation was to evaluate the effects of SII completion and participation an feedback and interpretation on the social cognitive career beliefs of first-year college students. Application of self-efficacy theory to the career decision- tasks and behaviors, whereas high levels of CDMSE lead to increased participation in career decision-making activities. The use of a group interpretation strategy that incorporated sources of performance accomplishments and verbal persuasion as means of providing SI feedback increased participants' CDMSE.

Article #1
1. What is the title of the article? Provide a reference for the article in APA format.
Mueller, D. R., Schmidt, S. J., & Roder, V. (2013). Integrated psychological therapy: effectiveness in schizophrenia inpatient settings related to patients' age. The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, 21(3), 231-241.
2. What is the purpose of the article?
The article investigated whether the Integrated Philological therapy is more effective in younger patients of ages 40 and above. The authors then compared the effectiveness of IPT of young patients with that of average years of 40 and above. The study also investigated whether treatment as usual or unspecified group activities produce different outcomes.
3. What is the hypothesis of the study? In other words, what claims do the authors make in the article? What are the outcomes of the study, that is, the conclusions that the authors made as a result of the study?
There are no differences in the effectiveness of Integrated Psychological therapy between a group of younger patients (age 40 and below) and that of the average years (ages 40 and above). The study also hypothesized that there no differences in the treatment outcome of the group of younger patients (age 40). The study also assessed there were differences in the treatment outcome of the group of older patients (age 40 and above) treated using specified and unspecified treatment.
4. What variables (factors) are being looking at as an influence on abnormal behavior?
The study investigated the influences of age (variable) and the use of Integrated Psychological Treatment on the treatment of schizophrenia. Another variable was the treatment options (Unspecified and Specified treatment). Other variables include the global cognitive scores, social cognition, psychopathology and social functioning.
5. If these variables or the relationship between these variables have been studied before, what have other studies found? This shows historical significance.
Past studies have shown the effect of age on Schizophrenia. Older people suffering from Schizophrenia often suffer from cognitive impairment compared to younger patients. There are fewer therapy approaches to middle and averagely mentally ill patients.
6. Describe the research design (e.g., descriptive, correlateional, experimental) that was used in the study.
Standard meta-analytical procedures. The study compared category of two age groups. Had a total of 15 IPT controlled studies with 632 schizophrenic patients.
7. Do you think the research in this article was conducted in an ethical manner? Why or why not?
Yes. The study obtained ethical approval from the relevant authorities. The study also recruited participants after getting an informed consent from each study participants.

What is your research question?
My research question is “Does stress reduction efficacy vary between relaxation response treatment and mindfulness-based programs for female undergraduate students between the ages of 18-25?”
The research question is important because previous studies have only provided empirical evidence demonstrating the efficacy of each method on its own and a comparison of the methods within other controlled populations. Research has investigated the effects of these stress-reduction methods within specific subgroups of the population, but not within the population that is targeted in this study. It is also important because
the majority of research has focused on the effects of stress-reduction techniques on medical students, healthcare professionals, and undergraduate pr.
Emancipatory Research: A Synthesis of Quantitative Evidenceiosrjce
Emancipatory research challenges conventional ways in which knowledge is constructed within
educational research. Using the Johanna Briggs methods, the authors conducted a systematic critical appraisal
of the 45 quantitative emancipatory research articles published between 2000 and 2011 and provide a synthesis
of findings. Type of studies, participants, and outcomes measure served as criteria for considering studies. As
the results shown, 125 key findings were assigned into 26 groups, 12 thematic categories, five overarching
descriptions: agency in community health; instruction practice and student engagement; learning experience
impacts student performance; participation, student characteristic and programmatic opportunity; and
university support, international education, evaluation, and professor specialization. The findings suggested
that: systematic appraisal practice could be used for other syntheses; teaching emancipatory research methods
in graduate school is important; course design, teacher program preparation, and teaching activities should
closely represent societal needs, social culture, and demonstrate an awareness of students’ voice and cultural
backgrounds.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
· Discuss the issues created by generalizing research results to other populations, including potential problems using college students as research participants.
· Discuss issues to consider regarding generalization of research results to other cultures and ethnic groups.
· Describe the potential problem of generalizing to other experimenters and suggest possible solutions.
· Discuss the importance of replications, distinguishing between exact replications and conceptual replications.
· Distinguish between narrative literature reviews and meta-analyses.
Page 292IN THIS CHAPTER, WE WILL CONSIDER THE ISSUE OF GENERALIZATION OF RESEARCH FINDINGS. When a single study is conducted with a particular sample and procedure, can the results then be generalized to other populations of research participants, or to other ways of manipulating or measuring the variables? Recall from Chapter 4 that internal validity refers to the ability to infer that there is a causal relationship between variables. External validity is the extent to which findings may be generalized.
GENERALIZING TO OTHER POPULATIONS
Even though a researcher may randomly assign participants to experimental conditions, rarely are participants randomly selected from the general population. As we noted in Chapters 7 and 9, the individuals who participate in psychological research are usually selected because they are available, and the most available population consists of college students—or more specifically, first- and second-year students enrolled in the introductory psychology course to satisfy a general education requirement. They may also be from a particular college or university, may be volunteers, or may be mostly males or mostly females. So, are our research findings limited to these types of subjects, or can we generalize our findings to a more general population? After considering these issues, we will examine the larger issue of culture and how research findings can be generalized to different cultural groups.
College Students
Smart (1966) found that college students were studied in over 70% of the articles published between 1962 and 1964 in the Journal of Experimental Psychology and the Journal of Abnormal and Social Psychology. Sears (1986) reported similar percentages in 1980 and 1985 in a variety of social psychology journals; Arnett (2008) found that 67% of the articles in the 2007 volume of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology used college student samples. The potential problem is that such studies use a highly restricted population. Sears points out that most of the students are first-year students and sophomores taking the introductory psychology class. They therefore tend to be young and to possess the characteristics of emerging adults: a sense of self-identity that is still developing, social and political attitudes that are in a state of flux, a high need for peer approval, and unstable peer relationships. They are intelligent ...

https://www.ted.com/talks/stephen_wilkes_the_passing_of_time_caught_in_a_single_photo (Links to an external site.)
Your to dos for this discussion:
1. Now that you have had a bit of photography history, and gained a bit of appreciation for the beauty you can find in everyday images. I'd like you to take 3 photos of something (landscape, building, people, animal, objects, anything) that is outdoors.
·
· Take the 1st photo in the morning
· Take the 2nd photo (of the same image) in the afternoon
· Take the 3rd photo (of the same image) in the evening/night
Same image, same point of view, same angle, same composition (meaning point your camera in the same direction/same distance).
2. Briefly describe 3 new concepts/ideas you learned from this video. The concept/idea can be about photography, art, science, anything. There is no right or wrong answer. I just want to know what are the top 3 things you learned. Number your concepts/ideas 1 through 3. Please briefly describe what is it you learned and why it is a new thing for you.
3. Embed the 3 photos in your post. What have you learned from looking at the 3 photos you took? What have you learned between the photos you took and looking at the photos in the video.
1. Example:I observe how the beauty of nature invite us to appreciate the bright of the day and night and we could join the gorgeous vision with colors and multiples contrast an the same moment mix with material objects at the same time such as nature places, buildings and surround people or animals as a part of the artwork.
2. I also observe ho in the second picture more intense sunlight the in color and also could be observe as the peak of their brightness and I remember how it was related to the video the comparison of daytime in one of the first pictures of rocks and the spectator could see the different of colors with one part less brighter than the other in that place. Also is mention the time guide us and believe is true for example depends of what we see in the day we have an idea of the time it is.
3.-Also Impact to me part of the video when is mentioned how animals understand better than humans that we have to share our resources and they are agree to do it. Also something that I don’t used to appreciate that I believe is a excellent reflex ion that we are observing through the windows of the time is everyday and every moment which allow me to compare the admirable invaluable treasure in these pictures at famous places such as Yosemite .
I like this outdoors pictures due that is something that now helps me to appreciate more the windows time and also that this could guide me to be more observant and encourage me to analyze the infinity ways that I could appreciate more the art pictures with these different colors ,in shadows, in day time and specially in their uniq.

THIS IS MY LAST CHANCE HELP
Understandably, before teachers begin teaching their first large class, they tend to think about the challenges inside the classroom. However, after a few days, it becomes clear that responsibilities outside class are equally challenging.
Welcome to this module on
teaching large classes.
Teaching large volumes of students at any one time is always a challenge, and so it is particularly important for the teacher to be well prepared. This module can help you overcome the difficulties generated from a large class, but it will also help you make the most of the benefits that it can provide.
In this module, you will find out:
a variety of methods and techniques to help you teach a large class of students to communicate in English
how to manage your time outside class
ways to manage a large group of students
how to keep your students participating and motivated
how to cater for students with different proficiency levels
how to arrange students
how to promote learner independence
how to organise feedback
how to monitor and assess student performance in a large class
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY LARGE CLASS
When we say 'large' we generally mean a class of 30-60 students, in some instances up to 100. The educational system of some countries precludes the formation of language groups that are so large, however in other countries, for instance India, China or South Korea, such classes are quite common.
School administrations may choose to split students into smaller groups for the following reasons:
Overpopulation and a lack of teachers.
The traditional belief that still prevails in some parts of the world where the aim of a language course is to prepare students for an examination (usually a formal, written, grammar-based one) rather than teach them to communicate in English. A lesson is therefore viewed as a lecture where a certain amount of knowledge is to be passed on to the students.
Depending on room size it would be difficult to divide the class but definitely possible.
Assess competency and delegate stronger class members to lead smaller groups within class room.
Delegate 4 class members if your class is 60 and instruct them each to distribute and collate homework.
Failing to prepare before entering the class means the class is doomed to fail
Rising to the challenge stimulates professional gro.

Once the Application has started up and you are at the Start Page, select the create a new project option. When presented with the New Project window like the one below, be sure that you have highlighted Console Application under the Templates window. Now give the new project the name INV_GRAB in the Name field, and have the location field pointing to the F:\SAI430 folder you have on the F: drive. The diagram below depicts what your New Project window should look similar to.
Once you have done this, select OK to complete this operation. You may get a "Microsoft Development Environment" message box stating that the project location is not a fully trusted .NET runtime location. You can ignore this and just select OK. You should now see your new project listed in the
Solution
Explorer window on the upper right hand corner of the editor window. You are now ready to begin setting up your form.
STEP 2: Setting Up a Database Connection
Back to Top
The first step now is to set up a database connection with Access and then a data set that can be used to transport the data from the database to the application to be written to a file. For the purposes of this lab and your project, you will only need data from two columns in the ITEMS table of the INVENTORY database, but we will control that with the code written later. The following steps will lead you through the process of setting up the connection.
To begin, you need to add the following three namespaces to the top of your application code:
using System.IO;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.OleDb;
Since you are going to be not only connecting to a database but also writing data to a file, you will need all three of these listed.
Now you can set up the connection to your Access database that you downloaded and put in your folder. The actual connection string is @"Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0; data source=F:\inventory.mdb". This is a standard connection string for MS Access. You will want to precede this with the command - string conString = so that the finished connection looks like this.
string conString = @"Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0; data source=F:\SAI430\inventory.mdb";
This is simply defining a string variable named conString and assigning the connection string to it. We will use this variable later.
Now we need to define an OleDbConnection that will be used to connect to the database. To do this you will need to define a connection variable as a new OleDbConnection and point it to the connection string defined in the previous step. Your code should look like the following.
OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(conString);
Now you can connect and open the database with the following command entered right below the line above.
conn.Open();
Last, we need to declare a variable that will be used later on. Although this really has nothing to do with setting up the database connection, this is as good a place as any to do this. You need to define a single variable named rowCount as an.

Once an individual has become a victim of a crime, there is the mystique of the victim not knowing how the criminal justice system operates and what role the victim plays in the system. The police chief of Anytown Police Department has compiled a group of staff members to put together an instructional document that would explain to a victim about the criminal justice system. You and your group are the team tasked with compiling this document.
As a group, draft a paper that depicts the various roles and responsibilities of the criminal justice system components: law enforcement, the courts, and corrections. Include what civil proceedings a victim can seek against an offender. Finally, include a section that describes a victim’s advocacy program, as well as highlights the services and activities provided to crime victims.
Group Project Portion (1)
As a group, determine how the following sections of the paper will be divided among the members with regard to victims, roles, and responsibilities:
Law enforcement
Courts
Corrections
Civil Court proceedings
Victim’s advocacy programs
Be sure to divide the above sections equally among members.

One afternoon at work, Natalie received a phone call from her daught.docxarnit1
One afternoon at work, Natalie received a phone call from her daughter’s teacher. It seemed that Brandi had got into trouble, and Natalie would need to meet with Brandi’s teacher and the school principal. Natalie could not imagine what the trouble could be. Brandi was a straight-A student, played soccer, and was part of the school band. She also helped out with chores at home. On the way to the school, Natalie decided she would not jump to conclusions but would hear Brandi’s side of the story. Then, she would let Brandi have a piece of her mind!
At school, Natalie met the school principal; Brandi’s teacher; and a crying, red-eyed Brandi. Brandi and two other girls had stolen a pack of cigarettes from a teacher’s purse and were caught smoking in the woods behind the school. Worse, one of the other girls had stolen the teacher’s prescription medication, though Brandi said she did not know anything about that. The principal and teacher said that this was a serious breach of trust and was against school policy. They knew Brandi and were “shocked” that she was involved in this activity. In private consultation with Natalie, they said that Brandi was involved with the wrong crowd, but there was still time to intervene before she developed a pattern of bad behavior.
Natalie left the meeting angry with Brandi, but also feeling guilty and responsible. She had been working extra hours and was often busy with her schoolwork. Perhaps she had neglected Brandi or missed important warning signs. She would ground Brandi, but more importantly, she would pay much closer attention to whom she befriended and where she went. Natalie decided she would establish a schedule where she would help the girls’ do their homework.
Natalie felt tired. After all the years of guidance and parenting, how could “two stupid tweens” undo all her hard work? She felt she had worked hard teaching Brandi and Jenny how to make good decisions and to know right from wrong. She worried what the next ten years would bring. She pondered the possibilities of other peer influences, alcohol, drugs, and boys.

One of the key aspects of developing a strategy for the human elemen.docxarnit1
One of the key aspects of developing a strategy for the human elements in information technology (IT) project is to identify the roles and responsibilities of those affected by and involved with the projects. These people are called the
stakeholders
, and they will be the ones who determine the success of the projects. The key aspects of a project's success include the identification of the stakeholders and planning and preparing for the strategies of communication between those stakeholders.
For this assignment, you will continue to work on the Human Elements in IT Strategy document by identifying the stakeholders and defining their roles and responsibilities within the IT projects. You will then establish a strategy for communication between these stakeholders, including the methods of communication and identification of the key artifacts of project information that must be communicated during project execution. This is the Key Assignment First Draft.
The project deliverables are as follows:
Update the Human Elements in IT Strategy document title page with a new date.
Update the previously completed sections based on instructor feedback.
IT Project Stakeholders
Stakeholder Identification, Roles, and Responsibilities
Create a list of the key stakeholders in your organization’s IT projects.
Describe the roles and responsibilities of each stakeholder with respect to IT projects.
Summarize the issues related to the organization's IT projects that are important to each stakeholder.
Stakeholder Communication
Develop a strategy for communication between the stakeholders identified in the first part of the assignment.
The communication strategy should identify the major communication that should occur during the project and the key artifacts that should be communicated.
For example, a design document should be one of the key artifacts, and it should be communicated to specific project stakeholders.
A communication matrix would be appropriate for this part of the assignment.
Be sure to update your table of contents before submission.

Running Head: NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 1
Research on Undergraduate College Students Using The NEO
3. PI-R
Ima Student

University of Phoenix
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 2
Abstract
Three research articles were reviewed that investigated the use
of the NEO PI-R with
undergraduate college students. The articles concerned three
issues concerning the personality
and behavior of students: the differences between students who
planned to attend graduate
school and those who did not; the personality variables
associated with apathy; and factors
related to college students’ psychological sense of community.
The NEO PI-R proved to be a
valuable tool in assessing the attitudes of the undergraduate
students in each study.
4. NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 3
Personality Instrument
The personality instrument investigated in this paper is the
NEO PI-R. The
revised NEO PI-R Personality Inventory is designed to measure
five domains of personality, as
well as the six facets that describe each domain that is used to
assess adult personality (Cohen &
Swerdlik, 2010). The inventory is based on the Big Five factor
model of Personality. The five
domains of personality measured with this instrument are
Openness, Conscientiousness,
Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. The inventory is
designed to measure the
personalities of adults 17 years and older and consists of 246
items in the form of a self-survey.
The purpose of the NEO PI-R is to assess emotional,
interpersonal, experiential,
attitudinal, and motivational styles of its subjects. The results
of this inventory can be valuable in
the areas of counseling, clinical psychology, psychiatry,
vocational counseling and
5. industrial/organizational psychology, and educational and
personality research.
“The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R) consists
of 30 facet scales that
define the broad domains of the Five-Factor Model of
personality” (Trull, Widiger, & Burr,
2001, p. 176). The domains are as follows:
1. Neuroticism: identifies individuals who are particularly
vulnerable to psychological
distress.
2. Extraversion: quantity and intensity of energy directed
outwards into the social world.
3. Openness to Experience: the active seeking and appreciation
of experiences.
4. Agreeableness: the kinds of interactions an individual prefers
from compassion to tough
mindedness.
5. Conscientiousness: degree of organization, persistence,
control and motivation in goal
directed behavior.
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 4
6. Application Chosen
The demographic population that is represented in this critique
is undergraduate college
students. The three studies included in the critique explore
various issues facing undergraduate
college students.
Literature Review
Article 1
Scepansky and Bjornsen (2003) compared the attitudes and
personality traits of 166
students who planned to attend graduate school with 161
students who planned to work after
college. Participants in the study consisted of 336 college
students (235 female, 101 male),
ranging in age from 17-22. The participants were enrolled in
psychology courses at a small state
college in Virginia. The 240-item NEO PI-R was administered
to the participants who also
provided answers to the following questions: "How many hours
per week on average do you
spend studying or working on schoolwork?" "What do you
expect to do after graduation?
7. (graduate school versus work)" "On average, how often do you
participate in class by asking a
question or taking part in a class discussion?" Students
responded to the latter item using the
following 5-point scale: 5 = always, 4 = often, 3 = sometimes, 2
= rarely, 1 = never.
The results showed that students planning to attend graduate
school participated more in
class, and scored significantly higher on Learning-Oriented
Attitudes, Learning-Oriented
Behaviors, Conscientiousness, Competence, Achievement
Striving, Openness and Ideas; they
also scored significantly lower on Grade-Oriented Attitudes and
Grade-Oriented .
In general, the results of the study support the hypothesis that
students who plan to attend
graduate school differ to a degree from students who are
planning to enter the work force.
Students who reported an interest in attending graduate school
scored significantly higher on all
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 5
of the relevant factors (e.g., Conscientiousness and Openness)
8. and facets (Competence,
Achievement Striving, and Ideas). They also demonstrated
through their higher scores in
Learning Oriented Attitudes and Learning Oriented Behaviors,
that they study to learn versus
simply studying to obtain a high grade in a class.
Article 2
Bjornse, Scepansky, and Suzuki (2007) assessed current
levels of apathy among college
students. Participants completed the NEO PI-R. The researchers
predicted that apathy scores
would be positively correlated with Neuroticism (self-
consciousness, depression), and negatively
correlated with Extraversion (warmth, gregariousness,
assertiveness, activity, excitement-
seeking, positive emotions) Openness (aesthetics, feelings,
actions, ideas), Agreeableness
(altruism), and Conscientiousness (competence, order,
achievement-striving, self-discipline, and
deliberation). The participants were 336 college students (235
female, 101 male) ages 17-22,
who attended a medium-sized liberal arts university in the
eastern United States. The apathy
9. measure focused on the degree to which students had hopes and
plans for their future, had
feelings of adequacy, and expressed interest in daily activities”
(Bjornsen, Scepansky, & Suzuki,
2007, p.670). All items were answered using a 5-point Likert
scale, and ranged from "strongly
agree" to "strongly disagree." The scales demonstrate high
internal reliability and strong
construct validity through associations with expected domains
and facets of the NEO PI-R. The
five domains, represent separate fundamental aspects of
personality. High levels of male apathy
were associated with high levels of neuroticism, low levels of
extraversion, low levels of
conscientiousness, and high levels of agreeableness. High levels
of female apathy were
associated with high levels of neuroticism, low levels of
conscientiousness, and low levels of
extraversion. These results suggest that apathy may be
comprised of the following three
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 6
components: emotional (negative mood, anxiety), social
10. (inadequacy with friends, sensitivity to
ridicule), and goal-oriented (insecure about one's future, low
motivation and self-confidence).
Students in the study reported significantly lower levels of
apathy than those reported by
Munekata (1997) (cited in Bjornsen, Scepansky, & Suzuki,
2007) for Japanese college students
who were given the Japanese version of the instrument. The
strongest predictor of employment
and income after college for Japanese students is the status or
educational ranking of the college
or university. Students' "lot in life" has been determined by the
time they take the university
entrance exams, which determines which University a student
will attend. In this sample,
students with high levels of apathy were not as extraverted,
trusting, or conscientious as other
students. Additionally, Japanese students’” interpersonal
competence and connectedness to the
college environment also had lower levels of stress and they
were less likely to drop out of
college” (Bjornsen, Scepansky, & Suzuki, 2007, p.671).
Article 3
11. Deneui (2003) examined various factors as they relate to
first-year college students’
Psychological Sense of Community (PSC). More specifically,
this study examined how “a
student’s sense of community develops over time and how that
development relates to
individual personality traits as well as student involvement and
participation in various campus
activities and organizations” (Deneui, 2003, p. 224). The study
was based on the assumption that
as incoming freshmen new to campus, students would have no
sense of community. As a result
of becoming involved in campus activities, as well as the
possession of certain personality traits,
their sense of community would increase over the school year.
In order to measure results over
an extended period of time, the inventory was administered
twice during the school year and was
referred to as Time 1 and Time 2. Time 1 participants
consisted of 364 incoming first year
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 7
students. Of these students, 234 were females and 128 were
12. males. Two respondents did not
indicate their gender. Participants were students enrolled in
introductory psychology courses at a
large southeastern university. The initial sample of students
was asked if they would be willing
to participate in a follow-up study to be conducted near the end
of the spring semester. As an
incentive to participate in the follow-up, students were offered a
chance at winning a $100 cash
prize. Out of the initial 364 Time 1 participants, 315 indicated
they would be willing to
participate in the follow-up study. Out of that sample of 315,
120 (38%) actually completed the
follow-up survey. Time 2 participants included 95 women and
23 men. Participants completed
the 240-item NEO PI-R, which measured individual personality
on five broad dimensions,
Neuroticism, Extroversion), and Conscientiousness.
Participants indicated their degree of
agreement with each item on a five-point Likert scale ranging
from 1 = "strongly disagree" to 5 =
"strongly agree".
Demographic information was also collected including,
gender, size of high school, high
13. school GPA and ethnic background. To test changes over time,
the PSC scale was again
administered at the end of the semester (Time 2 PSC). Students
were also asked to complete a
participation checklist that measured their involvement in
various campus organizations and
activities. The study included 120 participants who completed a
battery of questionnaires at the
beginning and end of an academic school year. Results showed
that contrary to prediction
students' overall PSC did not increase over the course of the
academic year. The findings of this
study reveal no support for the prediction that overall PSC
would increase over the course of the
academic school year. “Apparently, it cannot be assumed that
PSC will automatically increase
for all students. In fact, the findings reveal that for some
students PSC was actually lower at the
end of the school year than at the beginning” (Deneui, 2003,
p.230).
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 8
14. Discussion
Reliability and Validity of the NEO PI-R for College Students
None of the studies reported validity scores for the NEO PI-R.
Reliability results were
reported by Deneui (2003), who found the following internal
consistency reliabilities for the five
main scales: Neuroticism (alpha = .92), Extroversion (alpha =
.90), Openness (alpha = .87),
Agreeableness (alpha = .86) and Conscientiousness (alpha =
.91).
Ethical Considerations Regarding the NEO PI-R
While the NEO PI-R has been proven to an effective
measurement of personality,
particularly when used by psychologists, the opportunity for
misuse is also present. Ethical
considerations must be made when this measurement is used by
vocational counselors or other
non-medical professionals because it could result in the labeling
of an individual as having
personality conflicts that may be used to discriminate against
the individual. Specifically, college
students could be prematurely labeled as having personalities
that make them unsuitable for a
15. specific concentration in school or to aim toward a particular
career path. If the instrument is
administered to an 18 year old freshman, his or her results
would likely be very different as a 21
year junior or senior. Given that college is often a time of
discovery and maturation for students,
their responses to this measurement may change significantly
from their college freshman year
until their college senior year.
This instrument, and those like it, can also cause the students
themselves to allow the
results to dictate their success in school as well as the goals that
they create for themselves. If, as
a result of the instrument, a student sees him or herself as
lacking personality traits to be
successful in certain careers, that may allow that to deter their
efforts. Perhaps a student who is
18 and dreams of being an attorney scores low in interpersonal
scores due to shyness. In three
NEO PI-R AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 9
years’ time, that student may have conquered shyness. The
instrument merely gives a snapshot
16. in time of students’ personality traits.
Not only could this measurement cause others to
prematurely judge a student, but it may
cause the student to prematurely resign to a label that is given
to him or her.
Conclusion
Though all three studies essentially measured different
attitudes regarding undergraduate
college experiences, the common thread was that the NEO PI-R
seem to clearly and adequately
captured the attitudes of the sample population (college
students) in each study. The instrument
measured those factors and facets that are very specific to the
undergraduate population, and in
turn, it would be difficult to generalize these results to the
general population because the general
demographics of the sample population in all three studies do
not reflect the demographics of the
general population at large. The common psychometric link
between all three inventories given
under all three conditions to similar populations indicate that
students who feel that they have a
sense of belonging to their environment scored higher in the
17. areas of consciousness and
competence, and lower levels of neuroticism.
The NEO PI-R is a valuable instrument that can be used to
measure the various personality
traits of its subjects. The fact that it is based on the five factor
model of personality made this
instrument an effective tool for measuring the characteristics of
college students. The instrument
allows the test giver to assess the overt and more subtle
personality traits that could assist of
hinder a student’s success. This instrument has the capability
of highlighting strengths as well as
areas that students may desire to develop in their quest for their
academic and professional goals.

Week 6 Individual Assignment
Analysis and critique of personality measure
DUE DATE
This assignment is due on Monday, Day 7 of Week 7, i.e. the
last day of class. I cannot
accept any assignments after the last day of class.
ASSIGNMENT
1. Select one psychological personality assessment instrument,
test, or inventory to serve
as the basis of this assignment. It should be an instrument that
gives an overall
description of the test taker’s personality.
Specialized instruments designed to diagnose one specific
disorder (ADHD, autism,
21. depression, substance abuse, etc.) are not appropriate. Even if
your target application
involves a specific disorder, the test should be one that is a
general personality measure
designed for the general population.
2. Identify a target application in which the personality
instrument is used. Choose
either
(a) a specific disorder, such as bulimia or obsessive-compulsive
disorder,
(b) a specific demographic population, such as individuals with
a particular sex,
racial/ethnic background, disability, etc., or
(c) a specific situation, such as in the workplace or in
counseling with "normal"
individuals.
Be sure to state clearly what application you have chosen.
3. Explore the psychological literature to find three to five
articles that test the use of
this inventory or assessment with the target application
identified in 2.
22. 4. Using the paper format I’ve provided, write a 1,750- to
2,100-word in-depth
examination of your selected test and its uses. Include the
following in your paper:
a. Describe the characteristics, uses, and purposes of your
selected assessment
instrument or inventory. Be sure to include basic information
such as the
number and type of test items, and the names of the personality
characteristics it measures.
b. State which application of your instrument (which disorder,
subgroup, or
situation) you have chosen, as described in 2 above.
c. Summarize each of the articles you found, paying particular
attention to the
information your chosen test provides about the disorder,
subgroup, or
situation you are targeting.
2
23. d. Identify the psychometric properties of the test (reliability
and validity)
reported by the articles you found. Provide numbers if
available.
e. Analyze any ethical considerations associated with your
selected assessment.
(The MMY review(s) of your test might help with this.)
f. Summarize your research findings. Describe from your brief
review of the
literature how your chosen test is or isn’t useful with your
selected target
population/application.

GRADING NOTES & USEFUL INFORMATION
(1) Note that the assignment above is modified somewhat from
the assignment that the
University posted on the website. Ultimately they have the same
requirements, but my
version provides a bit more structure to the task while also
25. providing you more freedom in
choosing a topic. I require you to use my version.
(2) Important Note: 3 to 5 articles must come from the
psychological literature. This
means only peer-reviewed journal articles, not books or
websites. Your textbook, the Mental
Measurements Yearbook, and the DSM may be used as
references, but they do not count
as part of your peer-reviewed journal articles.
(3) One important limit: your Individual Assignment topic
cannot be the same as the topic
for your Learning Team presentation. There will be a 10%
grade reduction for using the
same test that was reviewed by your Learning Team.
(4) Before you turn in your paper, review the checklist below to
see that you’ve covered
everything. You could even use it to predict what grade I’ll give
you.

WATCH OUT FOR . . .
36. In the past, students have gone wrong by . . .
* choosing an instrument such as a behavior rating scale or a
specialized test designed to
diagnose a particular disorder. These are not personality tests.
* failing to focus on a specific population or application
* failing to report the reliability and/or validity results from
their articles
* not thinking deeply about whether the test they review might
have problems with bias or
other ethical issues
