DISCUSSION BOARD 

PLEASE REPLY TO THIS STUDENTS COMMENT BELOW 

HEATHER:

There is one central landfill in my county and all local garbage collection services have recently been purchased by one larger company which monopolizes service in the county, I am not sure how they are routing the trucks anymore, but I do know that since the merger I have seen nothing but complaints from their customers about missed service or poor customer service. The land full is pretty much in the middle of the county and is about 20 miles from the farthest most area. Unfortunately I was unable to get anyone from the company to answer the phone, this was even an issue when I worked for a recycling company and tried to establish a business relationship with them. Their website also only contains minimal information

Hospital Comparison Presentation

 

Research two different types of hospitals, preferably in your area, using the definitions provided in this week’s readings. How do the roles of the medical staff, governing board and administrators both hospitals differ because of the particular model they employ? What are the strengths and weaknesses of each model?

You have been asked by a local community group to present your findings from the above prompt in a PowerPoint. Make sure your assignment contains at least two scholarly sources cited in APA style format. The presentation should include a minimum of 10 slides, including a title and reference slide, and slide notes outlining what you would say during the presentation.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapters 5 and 6 in the textbook and the required articles for this week. Take the role of a psychological examiner administering a standardized test of intelligence to Johnny, an 8-year-old boy, as a part of a research project. Carefully review the ABS300: Week Two Assessment Scenario. (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. In your initial post, begin by describing your current understanding of the concept of intelligence. Based on your description of intelligence, evaluate Johnny’s response in comparison to the responses identified as correct in the standardization manual. Decide whether or not to score Johnny’s answer as correct or incorrect. Explain your rationale. Specify how scoring Johnny’s responses exactly by the manual might impact his true score on the intelligence measure. Analyze the “four seasons of the year” test item in terms of each of the following psychological measurement concepts: reliability, predictive validity, content validity, and cultural fairness. Evaluate the standards in the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct that address testing bias and the strategies for multicultural assessments discussed in the article by Horin, Hernandez & Donoso (2012) in light of the current scenario. Conclude your post by explaining how you would interpret the assessment results to Johnny and his parents.
