research 7.docx
This document provides guidelines for writing a research critique assignment. Students are instructed to choose a primary research study related to nursing or medicine and write a 4-6 page critique evaluating the validity, relevance, and implications of the study. The critique should include sections that describe the research problem and purpose, review the literature, identify the theoretical framework and variables, analyze the methodology and data analysis, summarize conclusions and implications, and determine if findings can be generalized. A properly formatted APA research critique with the full study attached is required for the assignment.

Your name:
Article reference (in APA style):
URL:
What is a critique? Simply stated, a critique is a critical analysis undertaken for some purpose. Nurses critique research for three main reasons: to improve their practice, to broaden their understanding, and to provide a base for the conduct of a study.
When the purpose is to improve practice, nurses must give special consideration to questions such as these:
· Are the research findings appropriate to my practice setting and situation?
· What further research or pilot studies need to be done, if any, before incorporating findings into practice to assure both safety and effectiveness?
· How might a proposed change in practice trigger changes in other aspects of practice?
To help you synthesize your learning throughout this course and prepare you to utilize research in your practice, you will be critiquing a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods research study of your choice.
If the article is unavailable in a full-text version through the Walden University Library, you must e-mail the article as a PDF or Word attachment to your Instructor.
QUALITATIVE RESEARCH CRITIQUE
1. Research Issue and Purpose
What is the research question or issue of the referenced study? What is its purpose? (Sometimes ONLY the purpose is stated clearly and the question must be inferred from the introductory discussion of the purpose.)
2. Researcher Pre-understandings
Does the article include a discussion of the researcher’s pre-understandings? What does the article disclose about the researcher’s professional and personal perspectives on the research problem?
3. Literature Review
What is the quality of the literature review? Is the literature review current, relevant? Is there evidence that the author critiqued the literature or merely reported it without critique? Is there an integrated summary of the current knowledge base regarding the research problem, or does the literature review contain opinion or anecdotal articles without any synthesis or summary of the whole? (Sometimes the literature review is incorporated into the introductory section without being explicitly identified.)
4. Theoretical or Conceptual Framework
Is a theoretical or conceptual framework identified? If so, what is it? Is it a nursing framework or one drawn from another discipline? (Sometimes there is no explicitly identified theoretical or conceptual framework; in addition, many “nursing” research studies draw on a “borrowed” framework, e.g., stress, medical pathology, etc.)
5. Participants
Who were the participants? Is the setting or study group adequately described? Is the setting appropriate for the research question? What type of sampling strategy was used? Was it appropriate? Was the sample size adequate? Did t ...

What is a critique? Simply stated, a critique is a critical analysis undertaken for some purpose. Nurses critique research for three main reasons: to improve their practice, to broaden their understanding, and to provide a base for the conduct of a study.
When the purpose is to improve practice, nurses must give special consideration to questions such as these:
· Are the research findings appropriate to my practice setting and situation?
· What further research or pilot studies need to be done, if any, before incorporating findings into practice to assure both safety and effectiveness?
· How might a proposed change in practice trigger changes in other aspects of practice?
To help you synthesize your learning throughout this course and prepare you to utilize research in your practice, you will be critiquing a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods research study of your choice.
If the article is unavailable in a full-text version through the Walden University Library, you must e-mail the article as a PDF or Word attachment to your Instructor.
QUALITATIVE RESEARCH CRITIQUE
1. Research Issue and Purpose
What is the research question or issue of the referenced study? What is its purpose? (Sometimes ONLY the purpose is stated clearly and the question must be inferred from the introductory discussion of the purpose.)
2. Researcher Pre-understandings
Does the article include a discussion of the researcher’s pre-understandings? What does the article disclose about the researcher’s professional and personal perspectives on the research problem?
3. Literature Review
What is the quality of the literature review? Is the literature review current, relevant? Is there evidence that the author critiqued the literature or merely reported it without critique? Is there an integrated summary of the current knowledge base regarding the research problem, or does the literature review contain opinion or anecdotal articles without any synthesis or summary of the whole? (Sometimes the literature review is incorporated into the introductory section without being explicitly identified.)
4. Theoretical or Conceptual Framework
Is a theoretical or conceptual framework identified? If so, what is it? Is it a nursing framework or one drawn from another discipline? (Sometimes there is no explicitly identified theoretical or conceptual framework; in addition, many “nursing” research studies draw on a “borrowed” framework, e.g., stress, medical pathology, etc.)
5. Participants
Who were the participants? Is the setting or study group adequately described? Is the setting appropriate for the research question? What type of sampling strategy was used? Was it appropriate? Was the sample size adequate? Did t ...

Systematic Reviews Class 4c
A systematic review is a literature review focused on answering a specific question by identifying, appraising, selecting, and synthesizing high-quality research evidence relevant to that question. It follows a rigorous methodology to overcome bias, including formulating a research question, conducting a comprehensive literature search, applying inclusion/exclusion criteria, assessing study quality, and analyzing results. The results are often combined using meta-analysis to provide a quantitative summary of effects across multiple studies.

IHP 525 Final Project Article Review Guidelines and Rubric
IHP 525 Final Project Article Review Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
There are two final projects in this course. One is an article review and the other is a data analysis.
Regardless of their field of interest, health professionals across disciplines need to be able to analyze and use biostatistical data to address health concerns
among the populations they serve. They need to be able to identify trends, draw conclusions, and make recommendations for improving health outcomes based
on solid evidence. It is also important that they are able to communicate that information effectively to those directly or indirectly impacted. They also need to
understand what others are doing in their field, the strengths and limitations of that work, and how it affects their own organization, even if they do not intend
to become statisticians.
The two summative assessments for this course lay the foundation for these critical skills. Final Project Article Review asks you to evaluate the strengths and
limitations of existing biostatistical articles and to identify the selection process of appropriate methodologies in different contexts (Final Project Article Review).
You will present your analysis through a written executive summary geared toward an audience of fellow health professionals. In the Final Project Data Analysis,
you will calculate descriptive and inferential statistics of a small data set. You will explain the basic parameters of the data, graph it, and run simple hypothesis
tests. You will present your analysis in a statistical report geared toward a non-technical audience, draw conclusions, and make recommendations for further
research.
For your Final Project Article Review, you will review and analyze published research that you might encounter as a health professional. You will select two
journal articles from the provided list on a topic of interest. You will create an article review that identifies the articles and their relevance to your field;
summarizes the articles, including their findings; compares and contrasts the statistical methods used in the articles; explains why the methods used were
appropriate; discusses their limitations; and concludes with recommendations for future work.
Final Project Article Review is divided into three journals, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality
final submissions. These article journals will be submitted in Modules Two, Five, and Six. The completed article review will be submitted in Module Eight.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
● Analyze the role of biostatistics for its impact on professional decision making in the public health, nursing, or health science fields
● Interpret key biostatistical metrics, methods, and data for addressing population-based health problems
● Evaluate the quality and limitations of published public health, nurs ...

1) A cyber crime is a crime that involves a computer and the Internet. A forensics investigation involves gathering and preserving evidence in a way that is suitable for presentation in a court of law. Use the library to research any recent (within the past 12 months), real-world cyber crime. Discuss each of the following scenarios:
· What was the cyber crime? Who or what did the cyber crime affect?
· How did the cyber crime occur?
· In your opinion, how could the cyber crime have been avoided?
· How would you conduct the forensics investigation for this cyber crime?
Use and list at least 2 sources to support your response to the question. You may use the textbook as a resource. Be sure to use APA formatting for all references.
Responses to Other Students: Respond to at least 2 of your fellow classmates with at least a 100-word reply about their Primary Task Response regarding items you found to be compelling and enlightening. To help you with your discussion, please consider the following questions:
· What did you learn from your classmate's posting?
· What additional questions do you have after reading the posting?
· What clarification do you need regarding the posting?
· What differences or similarities do you see between your posting and other classmates' postings?
2) Antiforensic techniques make proper forensic investigations more difficult. Antiforensic techniques are deliberate and can reduce the quantity and quality of digital evidence. Antiforensic techniques can also be used to increase security. Use the library to research antiforensic techniques, and discuss the following:
· What are at least 3 examples of antiforensic techniques, and how are they used?
· Discuss how antiforensic techniques affect computer forensics, file recovery, and security.
Use and list at least 2 sources to support your response to the question. You may use the textbook as a resource. Be sure to use APA formatting for all references.
3) Review and reflect on the knowledge you have gained from this course. Based on your review and reflection, write at least 3 paragraphs on the following:
· What was the most valuable concept that you learned in this class that you will most likely use in your future career?
· What concept in this course provided the most insight to the technical aspects of computer forensics? Explain.
· The main post should include at least 1 reference to research sources, and all sources should be cited using APA format.

Saying 1: Edgar N. Jackson “You and Your Grief”
GRIEF is...
Grief is the intense emotion that floods life when a person’s inner security system is shattered by an acute loss,
usually associated with the death of someone important in his/her life.
In more personal terms, grief is a young widow who must find a way to bring up her three children, alone. Grief is
the angry reaction of a man so filled with shocked uncertainty and confusion that he strikes out at the nearest
person. Grief is the little old lady who goes to the funeral of a stranger and does some unfinished business of her
own feelings by crying her eyes out there; she is weeping for herself, for the event she is sure will come, and for
which she has so little help in preparing herself.
Grief is a mother walking daily to a nearby cemetery to stand quietly alone for a few moments before she goes on
about the tasks of the day; she knows that part of her is in the cemetery, just as part of her is in her daily work.
Grief is the deep sympathy one person has for another when he wants to do all he can to help resolve a tragic
experience. Grief is the silent, knifelike terror and sadness that comes a hundred times a day, when you start to
speak to someone who is no longer there.
Grief is the emptiness that comes when you eat alone after eating with another for years. Grief is the desperate
longing for another whose loss you cannot learn to endure. Grief is teaching yourself how to go to bed without
saying good night to the one who has died. Grief is the helpless wishing that things were different when you know
they are not and never will be again. Grief is a whole cluster of adjustments, apprehensions that strike life in its
forward progress and make it difficult to reorganize and redirect the energies of life.
Grief is always more than sorrow. Bereavement is the event in personal history that triggers the emotion of grief
Mourning is the process by which the powerful emotion is slowly and painfully brought under control. But when
doctors speak of grief they are focusing on the raw feelings that are at the center of a whole process that engages
the person in adjusting to changed circumstances. They are speaking of the deep fears of the mourner, of his
prospects of loneliness, and of the obstacles he must face as he finds a new way o ...

To Board of Directors of Reed Elsevier Plc.
From Reporting Accountant
Date 11th November 2015
Subject: Corporate performance analysis 2010 - 2014
Introduction
The following report shows the financial appraisal of Reed Elsevier Plc. The financial analysis relates to five years financial period covering the periods 2010-2014. In order to have a full understanding of the figures computed I have attached a summary of five appendices. This appendix shows the vertical and horizontal trend analysis and the financial ratios covering the relevant period included in your financial statements.
Financial Ratio Analysis-Profitability
Reed Elsevier Plc. has maintained a high level of Return on Capital employed during the five year financial period. The Return on capital employed shows an upward trend over the years from 15.01% in 2010 to 19.61% in 2014. This shows that the company is performing above the industrial average benchmark of 8%-11% which indicates a favourable business performance and improvement in its profit margins. Further progress can be made if the business utilises its fixed assets more effectively and minimises its working capital.
The gross profit margin is viewed as gross profit expressed as a percentage of total revenues. A high Gross profit margin indicates increased profitability. As seen in our computation the gross profit margin from 2010-2014 was 63.52%, 64.58%, 65.03%, 64.90% and 65.25%. The result implies that Reed Elsevier Plc was able to generate £63.52, £64.58, £65.03, £64.90 and £65.25 of operating profit from every hundred pound of sales revenue in the corresponding financial years. These ratios above shows a moderate increase from 63.52% in 2010 to 65.25% in 2014. Despite slight decrease in 2013 to 64.90%, the gross profit margin improved marginally by 63.52% in 2010 to 65.25% in 2014. The decrease in gross profit margin in 2013 might be due to rise in inventory cost. Reed Elsevier Plc would be able to maintain a high profit margin by increasing revenue while decreasing its operating cost simultaneously. It may be plausible to increase selling price and reduce the cost of sales. More so, the company may choose to alter its product mix and sales mix in line with effective pricing policy.
Similarly, a review of the net profit margin shows a steady increase over the 5 years period from 18.00% in 2010 to 24.29% in 2014 providing evidence that the business is efficient in converting sales to profit.
There was a decrease in Return on Assets from 13.11% in 2013 to 12.65% in 2014. This occurred after an initial and steady increase from 9.77% in 2010. This suggests that the decrease in net income might have had a negative impact on the company’s earnings on investments. This may also suggest that the company did not utilise its assets efficiently during the period of decline.
The Asset Turnover fluctuated during the period showing a decline from 0.54 in 2010 to 0.52 in 2014. The low asset turnover can be attributed t ...

Students will formulate a research question from clinical experience, search peer-reviewed literature on the topic, review and assess the evidence, and identify the most appropriate research method to study the issue. In a 2-3 page reflection, students will discuss how they would integrate the literature into practice considering patient preferences and clinical experience, and how this process of questioning and learning will support being a lifelong learner in the future.
Clinical trials
This document summarizes the key aspects of evaluating clinical trials. In 3 sentences:
Clinical trials aim to determine if new treatments are safe and effective by testing them on people after promising laboratory and animal studies. Different types of clinical trials exist, from uncontrolled to randomized controlled trials, with RCTs being the gold standard as they randomly assign participants to interventions to reduce bias. Properly evaluating trials involves assessing their design, limitations, and results to determine the risk of bias and whether the trial's conclusions are valid and applicable to a specific patient.
Research critique
Critiquing research studies and articles is one of the method to improve the quality of research projects and it is also a method to learn research methodology for beginners.

Research Critique.pptx
This document provides guidance on how to conduct a critical appraisal or critique of a research report. It emphasizes that a critique requires careful examination of all aspects of a study, including its methodology, analysis, and conclusions. The critique should objectively assess both the strengths and limitations of the research. Key aspects that should be evaluated include the study's design, sampling approach, data collection and analysis methods, and whether ethical standards were upheld. The critique aims to advance scientific knowledge by helping to identify ways future studies could be improved.

IHP 525 Final Project Article Review Guidelines and Rubric
IHP 525 Final Project Article Review Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
There are two final projects in this course. One is an article review and the other is a data analysis.
Regardless of their field of interest, health professionals across disciplines need to be able to analyze and use biostatistical data to address health concerns
among the populations they serve. They need to be able to identify trends, draw conclusions, and make recommendations for improving health outcomes based
on solid evidence. It is also important that they are able to communicate that information effectively to those directly or indirectly impacted. They also need to
understand what others are doing in their field, the strengths and limitations of that work, and how it affects their own organization, even if they do not intend
to become statisticians.
The two summative assessments for this course lay the foundation for these critical skills. Final Project Article Review asks you to evaluate the strengths and
limitations of existing biostatistical articles and to identify the selection process of appropriate methodologies in different contexts (Final Project Article Review).
You will present your analysis through a written executive summary geared toward an audience of fellow health professionals. In the Final Project Data Analysis,
you will calculate descriptive and inferential statistics of a small data set. You will explain the basic parameters of the data, graph it, and run simple hypothesis
tests. You will present your analysis in a statistical report geared toward a non-technical audience, draw conclusions, and make recommendations for further
research.
For your Final Project Article Review, you will review and analyze published research that you might encounter as a health professional. You will select two
journal articles from the provided list on a topic of interest. You will create an article review that identifies the articles and their relevance to your field;
summarizes the articles, including their findings; compares and contrasts the statistical methods used in the articles; explains why the methods used were
appropriate; discusses their limitations; and concludes with recommendations for future work.
Final Project Article Review is divided into three journals, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality
final submissions. These article journals will be submitted in Modules Two, Five, and Six. The completed article review will be submitted in Module Eight.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
● Analyze the role of biostatistics for its impact on professional decision making in the public health, nursing, or health science fields
● Interpret key biostatistical metrics, methods, and data for addressing population-based health problems
● Evaluate the quality and limitations of published public health, nurs ...
1) A cyber crime is a crime that involves a computer and the Inter.docx
1) A cyber crime is a crime that involves a computer and the Internet. A forensics investigation involves gathering and preserving evidence in a way that is suitable for presentation in a court of law. Use the library to research any recent (within the past 12 months), real-world cyber crime. Discuss each of the following scenarios:
· What was the cyber crime? Who or what did the cyber crime affect?
· How did the cyber crime occur?
· In your opinion, how could the cyber crime have been avoided?
· How would you conduct the forensics investigation for this cyber crime?
Use and list at least 2 sources to support your response to the question. You may use the textbook as a resource. Be sure to use APA formatting for all references.
Responses to Other Students: Respond to at least 2 of your fellow classmates with at least a 100-word reply about their Primary Task Response regarding items you found to be compelling and enlightening. To help you with your discussion, please consider the following questions:
· What did you learn from your classmate's posting?
· What additional questions do you have after reading the posting?
· What clarification do you need regarding the posting?
· What differences or similarities do you see between your posting and other classmates' postings?
2) Antiforensic techniques make proper forensic investigations more difficult. Antiforensic techniques are deliberate and can reduce the quantity and quality of digital evidence. Antiforensic techniques can also be used to increase security. Use the library to research antiforensic techniques, and discuss the following:
· What are at least 3 examples of antiforensic techniques, and how are they used?
· Discuss how antiforensic techniques affect computer forensics, file recovery, and security.
Use and list at least 2 sources to support your response to the question. You may use the textbook as a resource. Be sure to use APA formatting for all references.
3) Review and reflect on the knowledge you have gained from this course. Based on your review and reflection, write at least 3 paragraphs on the following:
· What was the most valuable concept that you learned in this class that you will most likely use in your future career?
· What concept in this course provided the most insight to the technical aspects of computer forensics? Explain.
· The main post should include at least 1 reference to research sources, and all sources should be cited using APA format.

Saying 1: Edgar N. Jackson “You and Your Grief”
GRIEF is...
Grief is the intense emotion that floods life when a person’s inner security system is shattered by an acute loss,
usually associated with the death of someone important in his/her life.
In more personal terms, grief is a young widow who must find a way to bring up her three children, alone. Grief is
the angry reaction of a man so filled with shocked uncertainty and confusion that he strikes out at the nearest
person. Grief is the little old lady who goes to the funeral of a stranger and does some unfinished business of her
own feelings by crying her eyes out there; she is weeping for herself, for the event she is sure will come, and for
which she has so little help in preparing herself.
Grief is a mother walking daily to a nearby cemetery to stand quietly alone for a few moments before she goes on
about the tasks of the day; she knows that part of her is in the cemetery, just as part of her is in her daily work.
Grief is the deep sympathy one person has for another when he wants to do all he can to help resolve a tragic
experience. Grief is the silent, knifelike terror and sadness that comes a hundred times a day, when you start to
speak to someone who is no longer there.
Grief is the emptiness that comes when you eat alone after eating with another for years. Grief is the desperate
longing for another whose loss you cannot learn to endure. Grief is teaching yourself how to go to bed without
saying good night to the one who has died. Grief is the helpless wishing that things were different when you know
they are not and never will be again. Grief is a whole cluster of adjustments, apprehensions that strike life in its
forward progress and make it difficult to reorganize and redirect the energies of life.
Grief is always more than sorrow. Bereavement is the event in personal history that triggers the emotion of grief
Mourning is the process by which the powerful emotion is slowly and painfully brought under control. But when
doctors speak of grief they are focusing on the raw feelings that are at the center of a whole process that engages
the person in adjusting to changed circumstances. They are speaking of the deep fears of the mourner, of his
prospects of loneliness, and of the obstacles he must face as he finds a new way o ...

To Board of Directors of Reed Elsevier Plc.
From Reporting Accountant
Date 11th November 2015
Subject: Corporate performance analysis 2010 - 2014
Introduction
The following report shows the financial appraisal of Reed Elsevier Plc. The financial analysis relates to five years financial period covering the periods 2010-2014. In order to have a full understanding of the figures computed I have attached a summary of five appendices. This appendix shows the vertical and horizontal trend analysis and the financial ratios covering the relevant period included in your financial statements.
Financial Ratio Analysis-Profitability
Reed Elsevier Plc. has maintained a high level of Return on Capital employed during the five year financial period. The Return on capital employed shows an upward trend over the years from 15.01% in 2010 to 19.61% in 2014. This shows that the company is performing above the industrial average benchmark of 8%-11% which indicates a favourable business performance and improvement in its profit margins. Further progress can be made if the business utilises its fixed assets more effectively and minimises its working capital.
The gross profit margin is viewed as gross profit expressed as a percentage of total revenues. A high Gross profit margin indicates increased profitability. As seen in our computation the gross profit margin from 2010-2014 was 63.52%, 64.58%, 65.03%, 64.90% and 65.25%. The result implies that Reed Elsevier Plc was able to generate £63.52, £64.58, £65.03, £64.90 and £65.25 of operating profit from every hundred pound of sales revenue in the corresponding financial years. These ratios above shows a moderate increase from 63.52% in 2010 to 65.25% in 2014. Despite slight decrease in 2013 to 64.90%, the gross profit margin improved marginally by 63.52% in 2010 to 65.25% in 2014. The decrease in gross profit margin in 2013 might be due to rise in inventory cost. Reed Elsevier Plc would be able to maintain a high profit margin by increasing revenue while decreasing its operating cost simultaneously. It may be plausible to increase selling price and reduce the cost of sales. More so, the company may choose to alter its product mix and sales mix in line with effective pricing policy.
Similarly, a review of the net profit margin shows a steady increase over the 5 years period from 18.00% in 2010 to 24.29% in 2014 providing evidence that the business is efficient in converting sales to profit.
There was a decrease in Return on Assets from 13.11% in 2013 to 12.65% in 2014. This occurred after an initial and steady increase from 9.77% in 2010. This suggests that the decrease in net income might have had a negative impact on the company’s earnings on investments. This may also suggest that the company did not utilise its assets efficiently during the period of decline.
The Asset Turnover fluctuated during the period showing a decline from 0.54 in 2010 to 0.52 in 2014. The low asset turnover can be attributed t ...

Abstract:
The article discusses the benefits of diversity in organizations. The author notes that research has shown social diversity in a group can cause discomfort, a lack of trust, and lower communication, adding that research has also shown that socially diverse groups are more innovative than homogeneous groups. Topics include the concept of informational diversity, the impact of racial diversity on small decision-making groups, and how diversity promotes hard work, diligence, and creativity.

THE STATE OF THE WORLD'S SCIENCE 2014
THE FIRST THING to acknowledge about diversity is that it can be difficult. In the U.S., where the dialogue of inclusion is relatively advanced, even the mention of the word "diversity" can lead to anxiety and conflict. Supreme Court justices disagree on the virtues of diversity and the means for achieving it. Corporations spend billions of dollars to attract and manage diversity both internally and externally, yet they still face discrimination lawsuits, and the leadership ranks of the business world remain predominantly white and male. It is reasonable to ask what good diversity does us. Diversity of expertise confers benefits that are obvious -- you would not think of building a new car without engineers, designers and quality-control experts -- but what about social diversity? What good comes from diversity of race, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation? Research has shown that social diversity in a group can cause discomfort, rougher interactions, a lack of trust, greater perceived interpersonal conflict, lower communication, less cohesion, more concern about disrespect, and other problems. So what is the upside?
The fact is that if you want to build teams or organizations capable of innovating, you need diversity. Diversity enhances creativity. It encourages the search for novel information and perspectives, leading to better decision making and problem solving. Diversity can improve the bottom line of companies and lead to unfettered discoveries and breakthrough innova ...

GROSSMAN, David
PATRICK, John, 1945
In the early 1990s, IBM was a hasbeen. Fujitsu, Digital Equipment, and
Compaq were hammering down its hardware margins. EDS and
Andersen Consulting were stealing the hearts of ClOs. Intel and Microsoft
were running away with PC profits. Today, Big Blue is back on top, a
leader in ebusiness services. This is the story of how the company, which
had lagged behind every computer trend since the mainframe, caught the
Internet wave. Much of the credit for the turnaround goes to a small band
of activists who built a bonfire under IBM's rather broad behind. It started
in February 1994, when a lone midlevel IBM programmer watched Sun
Microsystems pirate IBM's Winter Olympics data for its own rogue
Website. Dave Grossman knew that IBM's mucketymucks were clueless
about the Web. But he was convinced that if nothing changed Sun would
eat Big Blue's lunch. Frustrated in his attempts to warn executives over
the phone, he drove down to Armonk, walked straight into headquarters
with a UNIX workstation in his arms, set it up in a closet, and
demonstrated the future of computing to a trio of IBM execs. One of them
was John Patrick, head of marketing for the hugely successful ThinkPad,
who quickly became his mentor. Together, building simultaneously from
the top and the bottom of the organization through an everwidening
grassroots coalition of technicians and executives, they put IBM on the
Web and morphed it into an ebusiness powerhouse. People who want to
foment similarly successful insurrections can learn a lot from their
example. INSET: How to Start an Insurrection. [ABSTRACT FROM

Policies are developed at all levels of government: federal, state, and local. The federal government is described in the US Constitution as sovereign, and no state may create laws that conflict with federal law. But states also create their own policies. States create policies that support the implementation of federal laws. Several states have created far-reaching health reform proposals. States sometimes create policy guidelines that are more strict than federal law, or may make specific laws where no federal laws exist. Local governments play a significant policy role as well, especially in public and environmental health, disaster management, etc. Morton Grodzins, a political scientist who lived in the early 20th century, famously described the roles of government as a marble cake rather than a layer cake because of its interwoven roles.
Individuals can directly impact the policy process. For example, an individual with a powerful story can result in policy change. Sometimes stakeholders group together to form a more powerful coalition, such as an interest group, to create change. Major organizations and lobbyists also exert powerful pressure on policy makers by using a variety of adovacacy methods.What you will cover
1. Development of Health Policy
a. Analyze local, state, and federal roles in the development of health policy.
1) Federalism refers to the relationship between the states and the federal government

Prepare a written response to the following questions.
Chapters 9 &11
1. Two boats, the Prada (Italy) and the Oracle (USA), are competing for a spot in the upcoming America’s Cup race. They race over a part of the course several times. The sample times in minutes for the Prada were: 12.9, 12.5, 11.0, 13.3, 11.2, 11.4, 11.6, 12.3, 14.2, and 11.3. The sample times in minutes for the Oracle were: 14.1, 14.1, 14.2, 17.4, 15.8, 16.7, 16.1, 13.3, 13.4, 13.6, 10.8, and 19.0. For data analysis, the appropriate test is the t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances.
The next table shows the results of this independent t-test. At the .05 significance level, can we conclude that there is a difference in their mean times? Explain these results to a person who knows about the t test for a single sample but is unfamiliar with the t test for independent means.

2. The Willow Run Outlet Mall has two Haggar Outlet Stores, one located on Peach Street and the other on Plum Street. The two stores are laid out differently, but both store managers claim their layout maximizes the amounts customers will purchase on impulse. A sample of ten customers at the Peach Street store revealed they spent the following amounts more than planned: $17.58, $19.73, $12.61, $17.79, $16.22, $15.82, $15.40, $15.86, $11.82, $15.85. A sample of fourteen customers at the Plum Street store revealed they spent the following amounts more than they planned when they entered the store: $18.19, $20.22, $17.38, $17.96, $23.92, $15.87, $16.47, $15.96, $16.79, $16.74, $21.40, $20.57, $19.79, $14.83. For Data Analysis, a t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances was used.
At the .01 significance level is there a difference in the mean amount purchased on an impulse at the two stores? Explain these results to a person who knows about the t test for a single sample but is unfamiliar with the t test for independent means.

Regina's Expectations for Class Discussions and assignments:
In regards to discussion posts I generally follow the guidelines spelled out in Walden's grading rubric in regards to posts (see the grading rubric outlined in the course information section of blackboard). However, if you do not use APA format or references in at least your initial post, I will deduct at least 5 points for that (so please do that). This is also the same rules for assignments, that they must follow APA style format. Also, in past courses I have been flexible in certain situations regarding delayed or late posts. I do believe that life sometimes gets in the way when we least expect it to. Please know that I would prefer a late post than no post at all. However, I will not accept posts that are more than a week late. If you are not able to post by the required date for whatever reason, just please let me know beforehand. As a rule, however, I do deduct points off the posts if they are late so as to be fair to those who post on time.
In addition, I will be following very closely with Walden's Tunitin Policy, which I posted below. Therefore, any paper that is submitted to me with more than 30% of the paper with improperly cited passages (or to many cited passages) I will return the paper to you and ask for you to re-review it and for a re-write if necessary. You will not lose points if the original paper was submitted on-time, but will be given a limited period of time to review/rewrite the paper (2-3 days).
I have provided an outline of what is specifically required for discussion posts and written assignments in this course:

Provenance: Donated to the Lowe Art Museum in 1961 by The Samuel H. Kress Foundation, New York, NY. Sold July 17, 1950 to Samuel H. Kress, New York, NY (as Ercole Roberti). Collection of Count Alessandro Contini Bonacossi, Rome-Florence, Italy. Collection of Otto Lanz, Amsterdam, The Netherlands by 1934.
Description: The imagery of this painting is unparalleled among surviving secular works of the Italian Renaissance, however, a number of features suggest that it is an allegory about love and marriage. Cupid, the god of love, stands on the bow of the ship, guiding it under the protection of Fortune, represented by a statuette atop the canopy of the throne. Inscribed on the canopy is the Latin phrase: “Poems are praised, but costly gifts are sought; so he [the lover] be wealthy, even a barbarian pleases. Now truly is the age of gold: by gold comes many an honor, by gold is affection gained” (Ovid’s Ars Amatoria, 2.277-78). The sleeping maiden dreams of love, whereas her older companion understands the realities of marriage in the Renaissance Italy: she holds a covered chalice symbolizing constancy and faithfulness, and leans upon the arm of the throne decorated with a relief sculpture of a putto bridling a hybrid monster representing the restraint of lust. The origins of the Ship of Love are unknown, but it probably was part of the lavish furnishings of a bedchamber, antechamber, or study of a patrician’s palace.

Description: The biblical story of Judith, the Jewish widow who saved the Israelites by beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes, was an enormously popular subject in European literature and art beginning in the Middle Ages. In addition to her importance as a heroine and defender of her people, Judith was considered a precursor of Christian triumphs, a prefiguration of Christ’s victory over death, a prototype of the Virgin and the Church, and the embodiment of many sterling virtues. Judith with the Head of Holofernes illustrates the immediate aftermath of the gruesome slaying. Judith holds the bloodied sword with which she has decapitated Holofernes, but she has not yet given the general’s head to her maidservant, Abra, to be placed in a basket in preparation for le ...

The schools were randomly assigned to receive the new antibullying program or no program. At the beginning, middle, and end of the school year, all of the students completed a number of questionnaires, which included the following two questions: “How often have you been bullied at school in the last couple of months?” and “How often have you bullied others at school in the last couple of months?” The table below is a frequency table that shows students’ responses to these two questions at the end of the school year (referred to as “Wave 3” in the title of the table). Note that the table shows the results combined for all of the students in the study. In the table, “victimization” refers to students’ reports of being bullied and “bullying” is students’ reports of bullying other students.
