This can be from personal experience, current events, or seen on television. Give a detailed definition of what the ethical issue is (what makes it ethical) and what communication practices or principles were used to address the issues.

Explain how your treatment of this population/issue could be affected by having awareness of bias and confounding in epidemiologic literature.
As a DNP-educated nurse, part of your role will be to identify the differences, or gaps, between current knowledge and practice and opportunities for improvement leading to an ideal state of practice. Being able to recognize and evaluate sources of error in population research is an important skill that can lead to better implementation of evidence-based practice.n order to effectively critique and apply population research to practice, you should be familiar with the following types of error:Selection BiasSelection bias in epidemiological studies occurs when study participants do not accurately represent the population for whom results will be generalized, and this results in a measure of association that is distorted (i.e., not close to the truth). For example, if persons responding to a survey tend to be different (e.g., younger) than those who do not respond, then the study sample is not representative of the general population, and study results may be misleading if generalized.Information BiasInformation bias results from errors made in the collection of information obtained in a study. For example, participants self-report of their diet may be inaccurate for many reasons. They may not remember what they ate, or they may want to portray themselves as making healthier choices than they typically make. Regardless of the reason, the information collected is not accurate and therefore introduces bias into the analysis.ConfoundingConfounding occurs when a third variable is really responsible for the association you think you see between two other variables. For example, suppose researchers detect a relationship between consumption of alcohol and occurrence of lung cancer. The results of the study seem to indicate that consuming alcohol leads to a higher risk of developing lung cancer. However, when researchers take into account that people who drink alcohol are much more likely to smoke than those who do not, it becomes clear that the real association is between smoking and lung cancer and the reason that those who consume alcohol had a higher risk of lung cancer was because they were also more likely to be smokers. In this example, smoking was a confounder of the alcohol-lung cancer relationship.Random ErrorThe previous three types of errors all fall under the category of systematic errors, which are reproducible errors having to do with flaws in study design, sampling, data collection, analysis, or interpretation. Random errors, on the other hand, are fluctuations in results that arise from naturally occurring differences in variables or samples. While unavoidable to a small degree even under the most careful research parameters, these types of errors can still affect the validity of studies.To Prepare:Review this weeks Learning Resources, focusing on how to recognize and distinguish selection bias, information bias, confounding, and random error in research studies.Select a health issue and population relevant to your professional practice and a practice gap that may exist related to this issue.Consider how each type of measurement error may influence data interpretation in epidemiologic literature and how you might apply the literature to address the identified practice gap.Consider strategies you might use to recognize these errors and the implications they may have for addressing gaps in practice relevant to your selected issue.By Day 3 of Week 6Posta cohesive scholarly response that addresses the following:Describe your selected practice gap.Explain how your treatment of this population/issue could be affected by having awareness of bias and confounding in epidemiologic literature.Explain two strategies researchers can use to minimize these types of bias in studies, either through study design or analysis considerations.Finally, explain the effects these biases could have on the interpretation of study results if not minimized.
Identify two or three culturally congruent strategies a healthcare provider might use to address Jays drinking.
Jay and Sue Kim, ages 29 and 26 years and married for 2 years, immigrated from South Korea and settled in Los Angeles. They have lived in a small one-bedroom apartment since their arrival. Both graduated from the same Korean university with baccalaureate degrees in English literature. They have one child, Joseph, age 1 year. When they arrived in the United States, Jay was unable to find a job because of his poor proficiency in English, despite his major in English literature. He eventually obtained a job with a moving company through a church friend. Sue is not working because of their son. Although the Kims did not attend a church before immigration, they are now regularly attending a Korean Protestant church in their neighborhood.Sue is pregnant again, determined by a home pregnancy kit, with their second child and concerned about the medical costs. They did not use any contraceptives because she was breastfeeding. Because of financial limitations, Sue did not initially have prenatal care with her first pregnancy. However, she did keep up with the Korean traditional prenatal practice, tae-kyo. Eventually, she received help from her church and delivered a healthy son. She is not sure whether she can get financial help from her church again but is confident that her second child will be healthy if she follows the Korean traditional prenatal practices.Jay is concerned about job security because he recently heard from colleagues that the moving company might soon go bankrupt. Although Jay has not been satisfied with his current job (he thinks that he is overqualified), this news is still a cause for concern. Moreover, Sues recent pregnancy has made Jay more stressed, and he has started drinking alcohol. Joseph cannot stand up by himself and still wants to be breastfed. Although Sue has tried to give foods such as oranges, apples, steamed rice, and milk (because she is now pregnant), Joseph refuses to eat them and cries for breastfeeding. Josephs weight is low-normal for same-age babies.Describe the Korean cultural practice tae-kyo. Is this practice congruent with allopathic recommendations for prenatal care?How do food choices among Koreans differ with pregnancy and postpartum?Describe cultural attitudes toward drinking among Koreans.Identify two or three culturally congruent strategies a healthcare provider might use to address Jays drinking.Submission Instructions:Your initial post should be at least 500 words,formatted and cited in current APA style with support from at least 3 academic sources.
State the interpretation of 95% confidence interval and state whether or not the billing system was effective.
Purpose of AssignmentThe purpose of the assignment is to develop students abilities in using datasets to apply the concepts of sampling distributions and confidence intervals to make management decisions.Assignment StepsResources: Microsoft Excel®, The Payment Time Case Study, The Payment Time Case Data SetReview the Payment Time Case Study and Data Set.Develop a 700-word report including the following calculations and using the information to determine whether the new billing system has reduced the mean bill payment time:Assuming the standard deviation of the payment times for all payments is 4.2 days, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate to determine whether the new billing system was effective. State the interpretation of 95% confidence interval and state whether or not the billing system was effective.Using the 95% confidence interval, can we be 95% confident that µ ? 19.5 days?Using the 99% confidence interval, can we be 99% confident that µ ? 19.5 days?If the population mean payment time is 19.5 days, what is the probability of observing a sample mean payment time of 65 invoices less than or equal to 18.1077 days?Format your assignment consistent with APA format.
