Delusional DisordersPakistani hought ProcessesBACKGROUND.docx
Delusional Disorders
Pakistani hought Processes
BACKGROUND
The client is a 34-year-old Pakistani female who moved to the United States in her late teens/early 20s. She is currently in an “arranged” marriage (her husband was selected for her since she was 9 years old). She presents to your office today following a 21 day hospitalization for what was diagnosed as “brief psychotic disorder.” She was given this diagnosis as her symptoms have persisted for less than 1 month.
Prior to admission, she was reporting visions of Allah, and over the course of a week, she believed that she was the prophet Mohammad. She believed that she would deliver the world from sin. Her husband became concerned about her behavior to the point that he was afraid of leaving their 4 children with her. One evening, she was “out of control” which resulted in his calling the police and her subsequent admission to an inpatient psych unit.
During today’s assessment, she appears quite calm, and insists that the entire incident was “blown out of proportion.” She denies that she believed herself to be the prophet Mohammad and states that her husband was just out to get her because he never loved her and wanted an “American wife” instead of her. She tells you that she knows this because the television is telling her so.
She currently weighs 140 lbs, and is 5’ 5”
SUBJECTIVE
Client reports that her mood is “good.” She denies auditory/visual hallucinations, but believes that the television does talk to her. She believes that Allah sends her messages through the TV. At times throughout the clinical interview, she becomes hostile towards the PMHNP, but then calms down.
You reviewed her hospital records and find that she has been medically worked up by a physician who reported her to be in overall good health. Lab studies were all within normal limits.
Client admits that she stopped taking her Risperdal about a week after she got out of the hospital because she thinks her husband is going to poison her so that he can marry an American woman.
MENTAL STATUS EXAM
The client is alert, oriented to person, place, time, and event. She is dressed appropriately for the weather and time of year. She demonstrates no noteworthy mannerisms, gestures, or tics. Her speech is slow and at times, interrupted by periods of silence. Self-reported mood is euthymic. Affect constricted. Although the client denies visual or auditory hallucinations, she appears to be “listening” to something. Delusional and paranoid thought processes as described, above. Insight and judgment are impaired. She is currently denying suicidal or homicidal ideation.
The PMHNP administers the PANSS which reveals the following scores:
-40 for the positive symptoms scale
-20 for the negative symptom scale
-60 for general psychopathology scale
Diagnosis: Schizophrenia, paranoid type

DELOITTE BLOCKCHAIN
At Deloitte, our people collaborate globally with clients, regulators, and policymakers on how
blockchain and digital assets are changing the face of business and government today. New
ecosystems are developing blockchain-based infrastructure and solutions to create innovative
business models and disrupt traditional ones. This is occurring in every industry and in most
jurisdictions globally. Our deep business acumen and global industry-leading audit, consulting,
tax, risk, and financial advisory services help organizations across industries achieve their
varying blockchain aspirations. Reach out to our leaders to discuss the evolving momentum of
blockchain and digital assets, prioritizing initiatives, and managing the opportunities and pain
points associated with blockchain adoption efforts. To learn more, let's talk.

Introduction: The
evolution of blockchain
MORE THAN A decade has passed since the introduction of what we know today as blockchain technology. Over that time,
the promise of what the technology could offer
businesses and industries has evolved from a
cryptocurrency payment platform to something
bigger, game-changing, and truly disruptive. In
recent years, we have seen sentiment about
blockchain’s potential similarly evolving, along
with companies directing actual investment
dollars toward applications.
In Deloitte’s 2019 Global Blockchain Survey,
we observed this continuing trend in thinking
and investment, even if some vestiges of doubt
and old-school thinking remained about the
technology’s promise.1 This year’s survey
suggests that those doubts are fading further,
and that blockchain is solidly entrenched in
the strategic thinking of organizations across
industries, sectors, and applications.
There are more substantive examples in
the marketplace of how both startups and
mature businesses are deploying blockchain.
Organizations appear to be more committed than
ever to blockchain and are demonstrating this by
implementing it as part of their normal course
of business.
That’s the key takeaway from our 2020 Global
Blockchain Survey, which finds that leaders no
longer consider the technology groundbreaking
and merely promising—they now see it as integral
to organizational innovation. This year, the C-suite
is putting money and resources behind blockchain
as a strategic solution in more meaningful and
tangible ways—in projects big and not so big—

Deliverable 6 - Using Business Visuals
Competency
Examine and design visual media communication to produce effective business materials.
Scenario
You are a website designer and are currently being considered as the designer for a complete redesign of a medical facility's website page. They have not updated their website in over 15 years due to the lack of staff. The website needs the redesign to target the specific visual preferences of patients and medical clients. They have several other designers that they are interviewing, and you decide to create a video presentation to impress them to choose you as their website designer.
As you begin your presentation, you decide that your design will include the following visual concepts and elements:
1. Visual Organization
2. Visual Simplicity
3. Visual Interactivity
4. Charts and Graphs
5. Images
In designing these visual elements, you keep the target audience of patients and medical clients as the main focus. You carefully consider what these types of people wish to see at a medical facility. You also consider what visual elements will attract the eye, and yet enhance a specific mood and emotional response for viewers.
After creating the website, you record your explanation of your visual design choices in an audio/video screen share.
Your presentation should be a maximum of 5 minutes.

Deliverable 5 - Hypothesis Tests for Two SamplesCompetencyForm.docx
Deliverable 5 - Hypothesis Tests for Two Samples
Competency
Formulate and evaluate hypothesis tests for population parameters based on sample statistics using both Critical Regions and P-Values, and be able to state results in a non-technical way that can be understood by consumers of the data instead of statisticians.
Dealing with Two Populations
Inferential statistics involves forming conclusions about a population parameter. We do so by constructing confidence intervals and testing claims about a population mean and other statistics. Typically, these methods deal with a sample from one population. We can extend the methods to situations involving two populations (and there are many such applications). This deliverable looks at two scenarios.
Concept being Studied
Your focus is on hypothesis tests and confidence intervals for two populations using two samples, some of which are independent and some of which are dependent. These concepts are an extension of hypothesis testing and confidence intervals which use statistics from one sample to make conclusions about population parameters. What to Submit
Your research, calculations, and analysis should be presented on the spreadsheet
provided.

Deliverable 5 - Hypothesis Tests for Two SamplesCompetencyForm.docx
Deliverable 5 - Hypothesis Tests for Two Samples
Competency
Formulate and evaluate hypothesis tests for population parameters based on sample statistics using both Critical Regions and P-Values, and be able to state results in a non-technical way that can be understood by consumers of the data instead of statisticians.
Dealing with Two Populations
Inferential statistics involves forming conclusions about a population parameter. We do so by constructing confidence intervals and testing claims about a population mean and other statistics. Typically, these methods deal with a sample from one population. We can extend the methods to situations involving two populations (and there are many such applications). This deliverable looks at two scenarios.
Concept being Studied
Your focus is on hypothesis tests and confidence intervals for two populations using two samples, some of which are independent and some of which are dependent. These concepts are an extension of hypothesis testing and confidence intervals which use statistics from one sample to make conclusions about population parameters. What to Submit
Your research, calculations, and analysis should be presented on the spreadsheet
provided.

Deliverable 4 - Global Environment Challenges
Competency
Create solutions for organizational and leadership challenges in a global environment.
Scenario
You are the HR Training and Development Manager at Lots of Stuff International, a global company. The company has offices around the globe, which requires employees to work with peers in multiple countries in cross-functional and cross-global teams. The company has recently conducted an employee engagement survey across all areas of the company. The results indicate a lack of engagement and satisfaction of employees who work in these global-cross functional teams. Upon investigation, you discover that employees indicate dissatisfaction with a lack of community and social interaction in their teams. They indicate this may be a function of culture and religious differences, time zone differences, or work ethic differences. This has led employees to be less invested in working together. The CEO, Ms. Amelia Rienhardt, has tasked you with creating a plan to develop community within these teams across the global workforce, with the end goal of enhancing engagement and satisfaction. This plan will be unveiled to all teams in a company-wide presentation.

Deliverable 03 - Humanities (Test-Out Sophia Replacement)
Competency
Formulate, express, and support individual perspectives on diverse works and issues.
Instructions
You will act as a critic for some of the main subjects covered in the humanities. You will conduct a series of short, evaluative critiques of film, philosophy, literature, music, and myth. You will respond to five different prompts, and each response should include an analysis of the topics using terminology unique to that subject area and should include an evaluation as to why the topic stands the test of time. The five prompts are as follows:
Choose a film and offer an analysis of why it is an important film, and discuss it in terms of film as art. Your response should be more than a summary of the film.
Imagine you had known Plato and Aristotle and you had a conversation about how we
fall in love
. Provide an overview of how Plato would explain falling in love, and then provide an overview of how Aristotle might explain falling in love.
Compare and contrast the two poems below:
LOVE’S INCONSISTENCY
I find no peace, and all my war is done;
I fear and hope, I burn and freeze likewise
I fly above the wind, yet cannot rise;
And nought I have, yet all the world I seize on;
That looseth, nor locketh, holdeth me in prison, And holds me not, yet can I ’scape no wise;
Nor lets me live, nor die, at my devise,
And yet of death it giveth none occasion.
Without eyes I see, and without tongue I plain;
I wish to perish, yet I ask for health;
I love another, and yet I hate myself;
I feed in sorrow, and laugh in all my pain;
Lo, thus displeaseth me both death and life,
And my delight is causer of my grief.
Petrarch
After great pain a formal feeling comes—
The nerves sit ceremonious like tombs;
The stiff Heart questions—was it He that bore?
And yesterday—or centuries before?
The feet mechanical go round
A wooden way
Of ground or air or ought
Regardless grown,
A quartz contentment like a stone.
This is the hour of lead
Remembered if outlived
As freezing persons recollect
The snow—
First chill, then stupor, then
The letting go
Emily Dickinson
4. Compare and contrast these two pieces of music:
Beethoven’s Violin Romance No. 2
Scott Joplin’s Maple Leaf Rag
5.Explain in classical terms why a modern character is a hero. Choose from either Luke Skywalker, Indiana Jones, Bilbo Baggins, Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen, or Ender Wiggins.

Definition of Ethos and How to Use it
1. Trustworthiness
Does your audience believe you are a good person who can be trusted to tell the truth?
2. Similarity
Does the writer try to get the reader to identify with him or her? This can be done through language
3. Authority
Does the writer have formal or informal authority? Does the writer try to relate to the reader?
4. Reputation
What are the expertise the writer uses? How many does he use? What are their areas of authority?
Logos: Logical reasoning, which has two bases:
Deductive reasoning, and
Inductive reasoning
Deductive Reasoning
Deductive reasoning generally start with one or more premises, and then comes to a conclusion from them. Premises can be facts, claims, evidence, or a previously proven conclusion. The key is that in a deductive argument, if the writer’s premises are true, then the conclusion must be true.
1. Education determines one’s class base.
2. One’s class base will shape one’s employment.
3. Therefore, education will determine one’s employment.
Inductive Reasoning
Inductive reasoning is similar in that it consists of premises, which lead to a conclusion. The difference is that the conclusion is not guaranteed to be true — we can only state it with some degree of confidence.
For example, consider the following inductive argument:
5. All Six Minutes articles you have read in the past were insightful. (premise)
6. This is a Six Minutes article. (premise)
Therefore, this article is insightful. (conclusion)
How to Identify Logos
Make it Understandable: Does the writer make the argument understandable? What tools does he or she use to do this?
Make it Logical: Does the arguments make sense? Or does the writer require the reader to make an extreme leap of faith? How easy is it for the writer to make a connection to the argument?
Make it Real: Does the writer make the argument real? Is the argument concrete or abstract?
The language plain language: Does the writer use technical jargon or is a portion of language used for a specific reader that isn’t familiar with the reader?
Does the writer use short words and phrases over long and convoluted counterparts?
The language is explicit: Does the writer make his or her argument plain? What techniques does he or she use to establish explicit argument?
The writer uses a couple premises, to establish his or her position? Are they relatable? Do they show relationship between them? “And these five advantages — capital costs, scheduling, inventory control, marketing, and employee satisfaction — together make this a winning proposal.”
Trace sequences or processes in order.
Does the writer jump around to different places or is there an order to his or her steps that create clarity or confusion for the reader?
Use comparisons, analogies, and metaphors.
Does the writer introduce new concepts, with an appropriate analogy which helps the audience understand the new concept in terms of how they already understand the old one?.

Definition Argument Essay AssignmentGoal Write a 1,500.docx
Definition Argument Essay Assignment
Goal
Write a 1,500-1,750-word essay using five to seven academic resources in which you argue that a contested “case” involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs fits (or does not fit) within a given category. A case may include a specific news article, story, or incident illustrating a dilemma or controversy relating to the exchange of human organs. The case does not need to be a court case.
Directions
Follow these steps when composing your essay:
1. Start by selecting a controversial case found in the media involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. For example, an appropriate case might include a story in the news about an organ broker, and the term to define might be “criminal.”
2. Decide what category you think your case belongs in, with the understanding that others may disagree with you about the definition of your category, and/or whether your chosen case matches your category.
3. In the opening of your essay, introduce the case you will examine and pose your definition question. Do not simply summarize here. Instead, introduce the issue and offer context.
4. To support your argument, define the boundaries of your category (criteria) by using a commonly used definition or by developing your own extended definition. Defining your boundaries simply means naming the criteria by which you will discuss your chosen case involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. If you determine, for example, that an organ broker is a criminal, what criteria constitute this? A criminal may intentionally harm others, which could be one of your criteria.
5. In the second part of your argument (the match), show how your case meets (or does not meet) your definition criteria. Perhaps by comparing or sizing up your controversial case to other cases can help you to develop your argument.
This essay is NOT simply a persuasive essay on the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. It is an argumentative essay where the writer explains what a term means and uses a specific case to explore the meaning of that term in depth.
First Draft Grading
· You will receive completion points for the first draft based upon the successful submission of a complete draft.

Final Draft Grading
The essay will be graded using a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations.
Sources
· Include in-text citations and a references page in GCU Style for FIVE to SEVEN scholarly sources outside of class texts.
· These sources should be used to support any claims you make and should be present in the text of the essay.
· Use the GCU Library to help you find sources.
· Include this research in the paper i.

Defining Privacy in Employee Health ScreeningCases Ethical .docx
Defining Privacy in Employee Health Screening
Cases: Ethical Ramifications Concerning
the Employee/Employer Relationship
V
Michele Simms
ABSTRACT. Issues of privacy and employee health screen-
ing rank as two of the most important ethical concerns
organizations will face in the next five years. Despite the
increasing numbers of social scientists researching personal
privacy and the current focus on workplace privacy rights as
one of the most dynamic areas of employment law, the
concept of privacy remains relatively ahstract. Understand-
ing how the courts defme privacy and use the expectation of
privacy standards is paramount given the strategic impor-
tance of the law as a legal socializing agent. This article
reports on two federal court decisions involving employer
drug and HIV testing whose determinations relied on
assumptions about the psychological dimensions of privacy.
How the courts define privacy, the outcome of this defini-
tion and the ethical ramifications as it affects the employee/
employer relationship are discussed.
Introduction
Each year American companies require employees to
submit to millions of blood and urine tests, x-rays,
and other medical and laboratory procedures. "In
fact, with the exception of typing and similar skills
tests for office and clerical employees, medical
screening is the most widely used pre-employment
test in all major employment categories" (BNA,
1987). It is predicted that in the next five years
testing will become a standard requirement when
applying for employment and/or health and life
insurance (Rothstein, 1989).
Michele Simms, as an adjunct professor of business communication
and organizational behavior, has taught at the University of
Michigan, Wayne State University and Oakland University
schools of business in Michigan. In addition to teaching, she
consults in the areas of worksite wellness, alternative dispute
resolution, transition management and change.
One factor contributing to the increase in em-
ployee health screening is the development of drug
abuse and AIDS as socially compelling public health
concerns (Falco and Cikins, 1989) that are costly to
employers, thus leading to an increase and/or initia-
tion of drug and HIV testing in both private and
public sector employment. One concern associated
with health screening is the issue of privacy and the
parallel communication activity of self-disclosure
that is used to express and maintain privacy states.
The issues of privacy and testing involve the
fundamental conflict of ethical principles between
individual rights and public safety needs and are the
subject today of increasing legislative and judicial
activity. A peripheral ethical concern that has not
been addressed but of equal importance is whether
the psychological dimensions of privacy are ac-
knowledged in court decisions involving employer
health screening practices. Traditionally lawyers and
judges Htigate and decide cases based upon principles
of legal positivi.

Main DSM–5 Categories of Mental DisordersNeurodevelopmental DisordersThese are conditions that begin early in development and cause significant impairments in functioning, such as intellectual disability (formerly called “mental retardation”), autism spectrum disorder, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Schizophrenia Spectrum and Other Psychotic DisordersThis is a group of disorders characterized by major disturbances in perception, thought, language, emotion, and behavior. Bipolar and Related DisordersThese disorders include major fluctuations in mood—from mania to depression—and also can include psychotic experiences, which is why they are placed between the psychotic and depressive disorders in DSM–5.

Define the concept of an integrated physician model.” To defin.docx
Define the concept of an “integrated physician model.” To define the concept of integrated physician model you first have to understand the importance of clinical integration in the strategic planning process. In order to do this I have to demonstrate the understanding of the dynamics and controversies of dealing with ACO’s (accountable care organizations). This will then pave the way for me to explain other approaches to pertinent issues with ACO’s within our current health systems. I will explain both advantages and disadvantages with one model for integration.
Integrated physician model is the outcome of partnerships between hospitals, clinics, and physicians that has been developed over time. It was thought that this venture was actually developed through several other ventures that have all connected through one main goal. Any organization that had the goal to be able to actively communicate with another facility, any nursing home, hospital, physician offices, etc. would have to start small with just one step to acquire the next facility or physician.
Clinical integration can really be broken down into four pieces. It gets broken down into collaborative leadership, aligned incentives, clinical programs, and technology infrastructure. The first piece of the puzzle is the collaborative leadership which pulls the governance body, compliant legal structure, payer strategy, and culture change. Clinical integrated care is physician compensation, program infrastructure, and physician support. Clinical integrated care is the hands on portions in disease programs, clinical, population health, and care regulations. Technology infrastructure includes health information exchange, disease registry, patient portal, and patient longitudinal records.
These four major pieces of the puzzle are not perfect, but they have paved a nice foundation for physicians, clinics, hospitals, and other facilities while being in a position to support future advances in the clinical integration process. Where you have change you have struggles. ACO’s continually have to follow new policies, but will they? Can they stay in an unbiased accountability? How will new policies effect care? How will this effect basic access to care?
In the United States we are in the beginning steps of the health care reform. We cannot say if it will impact us positively or negatively yet, due to the lack of data so far. As the people who need care and easy access to care, we have to be ready for more changes to come and be prepared for the impact it may have on us. If you look at countries around us like Canada, who have a healthcare system that takes care of all its people no matter what, I agree that we should too have this kind of system. Why do we have access and availability for those who have money and great insurance when it is needed but yet we let those who need the assistance slip between the cracks because they may not have the insurance that reimburses at the highest rate or.

Competency
Create solutions for organizational and leadership challenges in a global environment.
Scenario
You are the HR Training and Development Manager at Lots of Stuff International, a global company. The company has offices around the globe, which requires employees to work with peers in multiple countries in cross-functional and cross-global teams. The company has recently conducted an employee engagement survey across all areas of the company. The results indicate a lack of engagement and satisfaction of employees who work in these global-cross functional teams. Upon investigation, you discover that employees indicate dissatisfaction with a lack of community and social interaction in their teams. They indicate this may be a function of culture and religious differences, time zone differences, or work ethic differences. This has led employees to be less invested in working together. The CEO, Ms. Amelia Rienhardt, has tasked you with creating a plan to develop community within these teams across the global workforce, with the end goal of enhancing engagement and satisfaction. This plan will be unveiled to all teams in a company-wide presentation.

LOVE’S INCONSISTENCY
I find no peace, and all my war is done;
I fear and hope, I burn and freeze likewise
I fly above the wind, yet cannot rise;
And nought I have, yet all the world I seize on;
That looseth, nor locketh, holdeth me in prison, And holds me not, yet can I ’scape no wise;
Nor lets me live, nor die, at my devise,
And yet of death it giveth none occasion.
Without eyes I see, and without tongue I plain;
I wish to perish, yet I ask for health;
I love another, and yet I hate myself;
I feed in sorrow, and laugh in all my pain;
Lo, thus displeaseth me both death and life,
And my delight is causer of my grief.
Petrarch
After great pain a formal feeling comes—
The nerves sit ceremonious like tombs;
The stiff Heart questions—was it He that bore?
And yesterday—or centuries before?
The feet mechanical go round
A wooden way
Of ground or air or ought
Regardless grown,
A quartz contentment like a stone.
This is the hour of lead
Remembered if outlived
As freezing persons recollect
The snow—
First chill, then stupor, then
The letting go
Emily Dickinson

1. Trustworthiness
Does your audience believe you are a good person who can be trusted to tell the truth?
2. Similarity
Does the writer try to get the reader to identify with him or her? This can be done through language
3. Authority
Does the writer have formal or informal authority? Does the writer try to relate to the reader?
4. Reputation
What are the expertise the writer uses? How many does he use? What are their areas of authority?
Logos: Logical reasoning, which has two bases:
Deductive reasoning, and
Inductive reasoning
Deductive Reasoning
Deductive reasoning generally start with one or more premises, and then comes to a conclusion from them. Premises can be facts, claims, evidence, or a previously proven conclusion. The key is that in a deductive argument, if the writer’s premises are true, then the conclusion must be true.
1. Education determines one’s class base.
2. One’s class base will shape one’s employment.
3. Therefore, education will determine one’s employment.
Inductive Reasoning
Inductive reasoning is similar in that it consists of premises, which lead to a conclusion. The difference is that the conclusion is not guaranteed to be true — we can only state it with some degree of confidence.
For example, consider the following inductive argument:
5. All Six Minutes articles you have read in the past were insightful. (premise)
6. This is a Six Minutes article. (premise)
Therefore, this article is insightful. (conclusion)
How to Identify Logos
Make it Understandable: Does the writer make the argument understandable? What tools does he or she use to do this?
Make it Logical: Does the arguments make sense? Or does the writer require the reader to make an extreme leap of faith? How easy is it for the writer to make a connection to the argument?
Make it Real: Does the writer make the argument real? Is the argument concrete or abstract?
The language plain language: Does the writer use technical jargon or is a portion of language used for a specific reader that isn’t familiar with the reader?
Does the writer use short words and phrases over long and convoluted counterparts?
The language is explicit: Does the writer make his or her argument plain? What techniques does he or she use to establish explicit argument?
The writer uses a couple premises, to establish his or her position? Are they relatable? Do they show relationship between them? “And these five advantages — capital costs, scheduling, inventory control, marketing, and employee satisfaction — together make this a winning proposal.”
Trace sequences or processes in order.
Does the writer jump around to different places or is there an order to his or her steps that create clarity or confusion for the reader?
Use comparisons, analogies, and metaphors.
Does the writer introduce new concepts, with an appropriate analogy which helps the audience understand the new concept in terms of how they already understand the old one?.

Definition Argument Essay AssignmentGoal Write a 1,500.docx
Definition Argument Essay Assignment
Goal
Write a 1,500-1,750-word essay using five to seven academic resources in which you argue that a contested “case” involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs fits (or does not fit) within a given category. A case may include a specific news article, story, or incident illustrating a dilemma or controversy relating to the exchange of human organs. The case does not need to be a court case.
Directions
Follow these steps when composing your essay:
1. Start by selecting a controversial case found in the media involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. For example, an appropriate case might include a story in the news about an organ broker, and the term to define might be “criminal.”
2. Decide what category you think your case belongs in, with the understanding that others may disagree with you about the definition of your category, and/or whether your chosen case matches your category.
3. In the opening of your essay, introduce the case you will examine and pose your definition question. Do not simply summarize here. Instead, introduce the issue and offer context.
4. To support your argument, define the boundaries of your category (criteria) by using a commonly used definition or by developing your own extended definition. Defining your boundaries simply means naming the criteria by which you will discuss your chosen case involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. If you determine, for example, that an organ broker is a criminal, what criteria constitute this? A criminal may intentionally harm others, which could be one of your criteria.
5. In the second part of your argument (the match), show how your case meets (or does not meet) your definition criteria. Perhaps by comparing or sizing up your controversial case to other cases can help you to develop your argument.
This essay is NOT simply a persuasive essay on the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. It is an argumentative essay where the writer explains what a term means and uses a specific case to explore the meaning of that term in depth.

Sources
· Include in-text citations and a references page in GCU Style for FIVE to SEVEN scholarly sources outside of class texts.
· These sources should be used to support any claims you make and should be present in the text of the essay.
· Use the GCU Library to help you find sources.
· Include this research in the paper i.

Defining Privacy in Employee Health ScreeningCases Ethical .docx
Defining Privacy in Employee Health Screening
Cases: Ethical Ramifications Concerning
the Employee/Employer Relationship
V
Michele Simms
ABSTRACT. Issues of privacy and employee health screen-
ing rank as two of the most important ethical concerns
organizations will face in the next five years. Despite the
increasing numbers of social scientists researching personal
privacy and the current focus on workplace privacy rights as
one of the most dynamic areas of employment law, the
concept of privacy remains relatively ahstract. Understand-
ing how the courts defme privacy and use the expectation of
privacy standards is paramount given the strategic impor-
tance of the law as a legal socializing agent. This article
reports on two federal court decisions involving employer
drug and HIV testing whose determinations relied on
assumptions about the psychological dimensions of privacy.
How the courts define privacy, the outcome of this defini-
tion and the ethical ramifications as it affects the employee/
employer relationship are discussed.
Introduction
Each year American companies require employees to
submit to millions of blood and urine tests, x-rays,
and other medical and laboratory procedures. "In
fact, with the exception of typing and similar skills
tests for office and clerical employees, medical
screening is the most widely used pre-employment
test in all major employment categories" (BNA,
1987). It is predicted that in the next five years
testing will become a standard requirement when
applying for employment and/or health and life
insurance (Rothstein, 1989).
Michele Simms, as an adjunct professor of business communication
and organizational behavior, has taught at the University of
Michigan, Wayne State University and Oakland University
schools of business in Michigan. In addition to teaching, she
consults in the areas of worksite wellness, alternative dispute
resolution, transition management and change.
One factor contributing to the increase in em-
ployee health screening is the development of drug
abuse and AIDS as socially compelling public health
concerns (Falco and Cikins, 1989) that are costly to
employers, thus leading to an increase and/or initia-
tion of drug and HIV testing in both private and
public sector employment. One concern associated
with health screening is the issue of privacy and the
parallel communication activity of self-disclosure
that is used to express and maintain privacy states.
The issues of privacy and testing involve the
fundamental conflict of ethical principles between
individual rights and public safety needs and are the
subject today of increasing legislative and judicial
activity. A peripheral ethical concern that has not
been addressed but of equal importance is whether
the psychological dimensions of privacy are ac-
knowledged in court decisions involving employer
health screening practices. Traditionally lawyers and
judges Htigate and decide cases based upon principles
of legal positivi.

Main DSM–5 Categories of Mental DisordersNeurodevelopmental DisordersThese are conditions that begin early in development and cause significant impairments in functioning, such as intellectual disability (formerly called “mental retardation”), autism spectrum disorder, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Schizophrenia Spectrum and Other Psychotic DisordersThis is a group of disorders characterized by major disturbances in perception, thought, language, emotion, and behavior. Bipolar and Related DisordersThese disorders include major fluctuations in mood—from mania to depression—and also can include psychotic experiences, which is why they are placed between the psychotic and depressive disorders in DSM–5. Depressive DisordersThese are conditions characterized by extreme and persistent periods of depressed mood. Anxiety DisordersThese are disorders characterized by excessive fear and anxiety that are extreme enough to impair a person’s functioning, such as panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and specific phobia.

These four major pieces of the puzzle are not perfect, but they have paved a nice foundation for physicians, clinics, hospitals, and other facilities while being in a position to support future advances in the clinical integration process. Where you have change you have struggles. ACO’s continually have to follow new policies, but will they? Can they stay in an unbiased accountability? How will new policies effect care? How will this effect basic access to care?
In the United States we are in the beginning steps of the health care reform. We cannot say if it will impact us positively or negatively yet, due to the lack of data so far. As the people who need care and easy access to care, we have to be ready for more changes to come and be prepared for the impact it may have on us. If you look at countries around us like Canada, who have a healthcare system that takes care of all its people no matter what, I agree that we should too have this kind of system. Why do we have access and availability for those who have money and great insurance when it is needed but yet we let those who need the assistance slip between the cracks because they may not have the insurance that reimburses at the highest rate or.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
