America a Narrative History Response

I just want you to response to the responded question that already answered and give some thought and examples to this:Question 2: How and why did systematic race-based slavery become deeply entrenched in the southern states by the mid-1800s? What were the realities of slavery and how did its development affect white and black southerners alike?COLLAPSELong after most parts of America had developed into cities and factories, the southern states remained rural and essential for the growth of cotton. With the increased demand for cotton, there was increased need for its production at the farms and therefore there was need for more slaves. the cotton economy grew at a fast rate and so did the slaves increase in numbers. Since there land in the south was cheap, the sons of the cotton planters took advantage of this and therefore grew their territories and did their slave numbers grow ” throughout the civil war era, the south became increasingly committed to a cotton economy dependent upon slave labor” (shi, 384). Slavery had impacts on both the white and the black southerners. The reality of slavery was that it was an inhumane business that led the death if people, separation from their families, overworking, poor housing and cruel treatment. The slaves had no right and they could be bought and sold anywhere and any-time and by anyone. “They had few rights and could be bought and sold and moved at any time. (Shi 365)” The slaves were black people since due to their color, they were seen as inferior, poor and animals of burden. The white population became dependent on slaves and their services. the slave owners practiced prostitution with the slaves hence impregnating them. the slaves played a vital role in developing and sustaining the southern economy as without them, the large amounts of cotton could not be produced.Reference:Shi, D.

MKT 402 SU Pricing Strategies Discussion

Identify one product that would benefit from each of these three pricing strategies, and one product that would not benefit from each pricing strategy (cost-plus, customer-driven, and share-driven). State your rationale for each selection.AND REspond TO THIS POST:Robinson RE: Week 1 Discussion 1Hello Professor and Classmates,I am going to be the first to take a stab at this for week 1 discussion. Cost-plus pricing:  Is a strategy for which retailers, construction companies, and some repair shops greatly benefit from as an assumption of making a profit.  The cost-plus strategy is unquestionably the most uncomplicated and generally straight forward method for deciding cost. Notwithstanding, it may not be the most exact. It is maybe best taken a gander at as a beginning stage, from which the last cost can be characterized. Adversaries of the technique would contend that not all expenses are fixed. An all the more glaring drawback, however, is that this methodology may not mirror the genuine estimation of the item.Customer driven pricing:  This strategy of pricing is where the seller makes the decision based on what the consumer justify what they will pay.  B2B (Business to Business) sales for which allows marketing and sales to collect information on its customer value.  A product that benefits from Customer-driven pricing would be Consulting firms. Expecting the last item or experience is adequate; the client feels in complete control of the buy and, in any event to some extent, is answerable for their own fulfillment.  Airlines are less likely to benefit from Customer-driven pricing, due to the outrageous fees that cannot be negotiated or drive the cost no matter what.Share driven pricing:  This strategy is strictly dictated by competitive conditions.  Meaning a company way to stay competitive in their industry over their opposition, this empowers the company to settle on moderately simple valuing choices.  Small items/sales benefit the most from this strategy because this strategy allows them to compete on a lower scale.  For example, if a small business such as GovSmart, a value-added reseller (VAR), increases their cost on a software license by $32, then MA Federal the same VAR will also increase their cost.  High end or products will not benefit from this strategy due to the fact their cost/pricing has already defined as a higher price or cost.

                                                                                            Scenarios 1
Statistical significance is found in a study, but the eff, in reality, ty is very small (i.e., there was a very minor difference in attitude between men and women). Were the results meaningful? An independent sample t-test was conducted to determine whether differences exist between men and women on cultural competency scores. The samples consisted of 663 women and 650 men taken from a convenience sample of public, private, and non-profit organizations. Each participant was administered an instrument that measured his or her current levels of cultural competency. The © 2016 Laureate Education, Inc. Page 2 of 2 cultural competency score ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating higher levels of cultural competency. The descriptive statistics indicate women have higher levels of cultural competency (M = 9.2, SD = 3.2) than men (M = 8.9, SD = 2.1). The results were significant t (1311) = 2.0, p
 
For this scenario you must do the following:
 
·         Critically evaluate the sample size.
·         Critically evaluate the statements for meaningfulness.
·         Critically evaluate the statements for statistical significance.
·         Based on your evaluation, provide an explanation of the implications for social change.
 
Scenarios 2
A study has results that seem fine, but there is no clear association to social change. What is missing? A correlation test was conducted to determine whether a relationship exists between level of income and job satisfaction. The sample consisted of 432 employees equally represented across public, private, and non-profit sectors. The results of the test demonstrate a strong positive correlation between the two variables, r =.87, p < .01, showing that as level of income increases, job satisfaction increases as well.
 For this scenario you must do the following:
 
·         Critically evaluate the sample size.
·         Critically evaluate the statements for meaningfulness.
·         Critically evaluate the statements for statistical significance.
·         Based on your evaluation, provide an explanation of the implications for social change.
 
 

Investigation Into Ways to Improve Patient Outcomes Discussion

Please respond with a paragraph to the following question, add citations and references:The financial aspect of the project would be hours spent trying to get nurses educated on the proposed changes that need to occur. It will require managers having to spend hours on how they will evaluate to ensure implementation of changes is occurring as they should. This takes more than one nurse or person to get this done. This requires more hours of pay, and that would be the financial aspect of the proposed project.Now, the clinical aspect that has to be taken into account with developing the project would be how the nurses will accept the project. As lifelong learners, staff nurses continually encounter new knowledge of relevance to their patients. The conscientious nurse remains alert to clinical problems and encourages investigation into ways to improve patient outcomes (Di Lenoardi, 2014). The nurses need to be given the data that proves that these changes can improve the percentages of CLABSI’s. If given this data, they would be involved in the process of implementing as well. This project is to improve the quality outcome of patients and decrease the effects caused by hospital acquired infections.All the aspects brought together will make a good impact on the project, I believe with the data given to the nurses, implementation and then follow up of results will show this is a great solution to help alleviate many readmissions and lengthened stays that patients have to endure. With the education provided on the importance of using the CLABSI’s bundles and the need for continued assessment to see if the patient still need the central line this will ultimately increases the quality of care. Improving quality in my facility is a priority, but if I can prove that these interventions are a success, then patients’ quality of care can be improved dramatically in all hospitals.References:Di Lenoardi, B.

Scenario
You are the CFO of a rural hospital. During a recent review of the organization’s financial status, the hospital was deemed “at risk” for closure. Several factors contribute to the at-risk designation, including the state’s decision to opt-out of the Medicaid expansion program, the aging population, which requires more expensive care, and the changes in reimbursement from Medicare. These challenges have resulted in rural facility closures across the country. As part of the strategic management team, you review various facility units and make recommendations that may avoid closure. You determine that based on the profitability reports, the OB/GYN unit of the facility is underperforming in several key financial areas.
Instructions

Psyc 250: quantitative methods in psychology assignment 2 question 2

QUESTION 2
 
Why do people often hold overly favorable views of their abilities?
 
In a well-known study by Kruger and Dunning (1999), the authors suggested that “this overestimation occurs, in part, because people who are unskilled in these domains suffer a dual burden: Not only do these people reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices, but their incompetence robs them of the metacognitive ability to realize it” (from abstract). This overconfidence on the part of unskilled persons has been called the Kruger-Dunning effect.
As an illustration of this effect, suppose we had a group of 48 students take part in a research study for course credit. These students were told that they would be taking a test of logical reasoning. Before the test, all of them were asked to rate how well they would do for the test relative to the others in the group (“What percentile do you think your score will be in?”). Immediately after the test, these students were asked to rate how well they did for the test relative to the others (“What percentile do you think your score will be in?”). These before and after percentile ratings were compared to the actual scores that the students obtained.
If there is over-confidence on the part of the unskilled, we would expect the poorest performing students (both in absolute and in relative terms) to rate themselves more highly than their actual scores would merit.
 
a. Using hand calculations, conduct the appropriate test to analyze this data. State your conclusion clearly, and conduct any post-hoc analyses as necessary (no need to report in APA format). Assume that all assumptions of the test are satisfied.

b. Explain how the overconfidence effect is illustrated in your analysis.

GCU The Methods Used in Researchs Discussion Response

Respond with a comment to  the discussion question below:”Qualitative researchers are not so concerned with reliability but rather with a concept called dependability.  With dependability, the emphasis is not on the stable and reproducible, rather it is about how the researcher responds to and makes sense of changing contexts” (Schmidt, 2018).  “Quantitative research involves measurements that are reproducible and accurate, also known as direct measures.  Direct measures are concrete objects that can be measured, such as heart rate, weight, or temperature” (Schmidt, 2018).Strengths of qualitative research are the understanding of beliefs, assumptions, and behavior of values.  Qualitative research also leads to more exploration with broad, open-ended questions (Choy, 2014). Strengths of quantitative research are the critical analysis of the data increasing reliability, the short term time frame for the actual survey, numerical data for groups, and the extent to whether or not survey respondents agree or disagree (Choy, 2014).Weaknesses of qualitative research are a high volume of data for interpretation, and the skills of the interviewer must be refined to control this data without limiting the study. It can be time consuming to organize and categorize the huge amount of data and it can also be difficult to define an objectively verifiable result (Choy, 2014).  Weaknesses of quantitative research are the lack of feelings, beliefs, human perception, depth experience description, and resources for a bid study with a long-time frame.  This method can not show beliefs in a numerical number (Choy, 2014).To summarize when combining the two methods of research they tend to compliment one another and eliminate a lot of the weaknesses identified, by furthermore strengthening the research when applied to the same topic and also can eliminate bias. “Mixed methods research involves combining the quantitative and qualitative threads into data conversion and using those results to make meta-inferences about the research question” (Rutberg, Bouikidis, 2018).
