PSY 355 Harrison Career Institute Pittsburgh Big Data Psychologists Discussion

You may also hear talk of Data Science, Business Intelligence, Data Analytics, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, or similar concepts when doing research on this topic. Though each of these areas have a different purpose, there is some overlap and they all demonstrate the impact technology continues to have on how we conduct research today.For this discussion, please review the required readings and TedTalk video on Big Data. Please answer the following questions for your initial post:What is Big Data and how does it apply to the research of specific topics in the workplace?How does Big Data impact our work as IO psychologists? What are the advantages and disadvantages to using Big Data in psychological research?Create a list of five things that IO psychologists should consider when working with Big Data.Utilize at least two scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles as resources.

Phi 208 week 2 discussion 1 prompt

Tom Regan (1985) and Peter Singer (1989) agree that we have moral responsibilities toward animals, but disagree about the best approach to animal ethics.
 
What basic conclusions do they agree about (be specific)?
 
How would you explain the basic difference in their approach? Specifically, explain how Singer’s argument represents a utilitarian view, referring to John Stuart Mill’s Utilitarianism for the basic framework of a utilitarian theory of morality. In what way is Regan’s view a non-utilitarian one? Name at least one argument he makes that is non-utilitarian, and compare it with an argument from Singer that is utilitarian.  
(Remember that the aim in this discussion is to unpack the utilitarian approach to ethics, not simply to discuss our responsibilities toward animals.)  
 
Finally, share your responses to either or both of the arguments and any of the other material on animal ethics from this week.  
 
When responding to your peers, consider what Singer and/or Regan would say in response to their remarks, think about whether what a peer calls a non-utilitarian consideration might be, after all, a utilitarian one, or vice versa, or think of strengths and weaknesses in their argument that they might not have considered.
