Running head: DISCUSSION 1 DISCUSSION 1 Discussion: Factors that Influence Diseases Student’s Name Institution Date Atherosclerosis is a disease where the inside of the arteries is clogged by substances known ad plaque. Plaque is a combination of a number of other different substances including fat deposits, calcium, cholesterol and other substances that could be found in the blood. When plaque is allowed to build up because of failure to detect or because of failure to adhere to medications and other therapies, it becomes hard and this leads to the narrowing of the arteries where there is build-up of plaque. The result is that oxygen-rich blood is prevented from effectively flowing to different organs and this may lead to adverse health events. Normally, stroke, heart attack and eventually death are the results of atherosclerosis (Bentzon, Otsuka, Virmani & Falk, 2014). Atherosclerosis is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in the United States today. Worldwide, this disease is considered to be the leading cause of vascular disease, mostly manifested as ischemic heart disease, ischemic stroke and peripheral arterial disease (Herrington, Lacey, Sherliker, Armitage & Lewington, 2016). The cost of treating atherosclerosis and the disease burden on the healthcare system is also significant. It is important to understand that there are a number of risk factors associated with atherosclerosis including, age, ethnicity, race, gender, diabetes, inflammation, genetics, lifestyle behavior such as unhealthy eating, smoking and finally, lack of physical activities among others (Rafieian, Setorki, Doudi, Baradaran & Nasri, 2014). For the purpose of this paper, the factor that shall focused on is age. Evidence has shown that with age, plaque builds up in the arteries increasing the risk of developing the disease. To be specific, the risk in men increases after the age of 45 while the risk in women increases after the age of 55 (Rafieian, Setorki, Doudi, Baradaran & Nasri, 2014). The importance of age in development of atherosclerosis cannot be overstated. This is a disease that develops with time and this is why age is a significant factor. After decades of eating unhealthy foods, drinking, smoking and lack of exercise, the chances of plaque building up in arteries increases. In addition, with age, other diseases that act as risk factors for atherosclerosis may also develop such as hypertension and diabetes. This is why age is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis. Notably, atherosclerosis has been classified as an aging disease. In the light of this, it is safe to actually consider age as an independent factor for atherosclerosis. In cases of premature aging, atherosclerosis has been es.

Module 2 and specifically Module 3 covered statistics and
associated tools that will be required to analyze your results.
These statistics cover the measurement instrument/model and
the regression/structural relationships.
1. Please list the measurement instrument/model areas that you
will assess and which tool you are considering.
2. Please list the regression/structural model areas that you will

2. Discussion 1
It is important to develop an appropriate analytical plan for
research because this can set the foundation for how the
research will approach data analysis and interpretation. The
plan should include proper identification of research questions
and hypotheses, dataset to be used, review of data to determine
variables to be used in the analysis, and selecting proper
statistical methods and tools to be used,(“Analysis Plan in
Research,” 2013). In the dissertation venture, I will need to
have a clear path for an analytical plan for investigation.
Particularly, addressing the dissertation topic which is the
impact of Organizational Subculture has on Organizational
Commitment and Turnover Intentions: a Cross-Industry
Assessment. The plan needs to address the research questions
will include a mediating factor of embeddedness. The dataset to
be used in the investigation is primarily based on three
industries. The measurement aspects include questionaries’ to
addresses the same questions for all three industries. Since this
is a mediation study it is important to choose the correct
software which at this point based on the extensive research I
am leaning towards Smart PLS.
Discussion 2
The measurement instrument/model areas that will need to be
addressed in the study include indicator reliability, internal
consistency reliability, discriminant validity, and convergent
validity; all which can be done through Smart PLS. The
regression/structural model is that I plan to assess is the R2,
effect size, and path coefficient with p-value, (Angeles, 2018).
The same description is based on industries and subculture. The
statistics that would make sense to describe this sample are age,
gender, education level, position level at the company. There is
significant work to be conducted to construct measurable
aspects in regards to what is a subculture and how it can be used
in all the proposed industries: academic, chemical

Discussion 1
A vital piece of any strategy for success is the
market examination. This segment needs to show both your skill
in your specific market and the engaging quality of the market
from a monetary point of view. A market investigation is a
quantitative and subjective appraisal of a market. It investigates
the measure of the market both in volume and in esteem, the
different client sections and purchasing behaviors, the
opposition, and the financial condition as far as boundaries to
passage and direction. Statistical surveying centers your
promoting system on potential clients that need your item. Little
associations may find asking about their market of not
requesting than broad and substantially over the national
associations because their customer base is humbler. Convenient
data lessens business dangers and helps spot deals openings.
Utilize your exploration to recognize current difficulties and
potential issues in the current market to build up your action
plan. Fruitful organizations have broad information about their
clients and their rivals. Statistical surveying is the way toward
get-together data which will make you more mindful of how the
general population you plan to pitch to will respond to your
current or potential items and administrations. Regardless of
whether you know about it or not, as an entrepreneur, you direct
statistical surveying regularly. When you converse with clients
about your business or look at the costs of your rivals, you are

4. leading statistical surveying. Formalizing the procedure can
deliver an abundance of data about your items and
administrations, your clients and the commercial center you
work in ("Guide to market research and analysis — Canada
Business Network," 16).
Discussion 2
The goals of the market investigation segment of a strategy for
success are to show to financial specialists that: you know your
market and the market is sufficiently extensive to assemble a
manageable business. While evaluating the span of the market,
your methodology will rely upon the kind of business you are
pitching to financial specialists. If your strategy for success is
for a little shop or an eatery, you have to adopt a neighborhood
strategy and endeavor to survey the market around your shop. If
you are composing a plan for success for an eatery network, you
have to study the market a national dimension — contingent
upon your market you may likewise need to cut it into various
sections ("How to do a market analysis for market demand,"
2013). It is especially relevant if you or your competitors focus
only on certain segments.
The following considered when doing the analysis
Product — Enhance your item or administration dependent on
discoveries about what your clients genuinely need and need.
Concentrate on things like capacity, appearance and client
administration or guarantees.
Price — set a cost dependent on public net revenues,
contenders' expenses, financing alternatives or the value a client
will pay.
Placement — Choose where to set up and how to convey an
item. Think about the attributes of various areas and the
estimation of purposes of an offer.
Promotion — Make sense of how to best achieve specific
market sections in territories of promoting and exposure, online
networking, and marking. Some portion of being set up with

5. statistical surveying is staying away from unpalatable
astonishments. Instinct and experience can be useful now and
again. However, research and certainties regularly portray your
market. By directing exploration all the time, you can stay
aware of the elements of the economy and demography. You can
likewise acclimate to new directions and innovative
achievements ("How is Market Research Used to Analyze
Demand," 2010).
