⦁ Assignment: Research in Psychology

Assignment

 

Psychology in the News

STEP 1: Find a popular news article from within the past 10 years that reports on the results of a psychological study. This should not be a blog entry, but a published article from a news source such as Time Magazine, The New York Times, Newsweek, NPR, https://blog.keenessays.com/2021/07/05/difference-in-language-that-can-affect-how-the-healthcare-team-and-treatments-are-perceived/ CNN, Fox News, etc. A great place to look is the APA’s Psychology news portal: http://www.apa.org/news/psycport/. Read through the article and ensure that it is descriptive and sufficiently long enough in order to draw conclusions from the original research mentioned.

STEP 2: Go find the psychological study or studies that are mentioned in the news report. Sometimes those are not freely available online, so you may have to track down the original study through your library’s website. You can find these articles within reputable journals, such as the American Journal of Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Emotion, Journal of Abnormal Psychology, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Counseling Psychology, Journal of Educational Psychology, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, and Memory. https://blog.keenessays.com/2021/07/05/difference-in-language-that-can-affect-how-the-healthcare-team-and-treatments-are-perceived/ The study should have been performed within the past 10 years.

STEP 3: Write a paper between 250-500 words that

⦁ describes and summarizes both articles

⦁ compares and contrasts the key points, style, and purpose of the news article with that of the research article

⦁ examines if the news article accurately describes the research

⦁ includes correct APA title page, ⦁ APA citations (in-text ), and APA reference page

Portfolio Management and Strategic Management Concepts and Organization Paper

 

Write a 1,200-word paper (remember for all assignments in the course word count only counts for the paper body content; not the intro/closing paragraphs or words used in tables/charts/etc) in which you:

Explain how strategic portfolio management relates to project management.

Explain the difference between project-based and non-project-based organizations.

Discuss how communication differs for a project manager in a project-based organization versus a non-project-based organization.

Discuss two challenges that a project manager might face in a non-project-based organization.

Discuss How would you overcome the challenges that you identified (remember you are telling me how to overcome the 2 challenges you just told me…not challenges in general….they need to match/align here).

Please note…there are 5 Main items to address these should correlate to 5 sections in the paper body. 

·         As with all your assignments in the course make sure you use section headers (section headers are not a sentence nor are they just a repeat of the questions; so an example for a section header might be “”Non-Project-Based Organization Challenges”.); remember to have an intro paragraph and closing paragraph as well.

Use at least two credible references. (as a note on references….you use references/quotes to support your own thoughts and ideas….not to be used to write the paper for you/fill paper space. Also if you have a reference listed on your Works cited page you have to show the item being used in the paper body itself. If you do not do this then the reader does not know where the source is being used.).

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines. (and as stated in the Class Announcements this means intro/closing paragraphs, and headers which will be used in all assignments)

Module 08 Written Assignment – Asthma Management

Module 8 content

 J.S. is a 42-year-old man who lives in the Midwest and is highly allergic to dust and pollen and has a history of mild asthma. J.S’s wife drove him to the emergency room when his wheezing was unresponsive to his fluticasone/salmeterol (Advair) inhaler. J.S. was unable to lie down, and began to use accessory muscles to breathe. J.S. is immediately started on 4 L oxygen by nasal cannula and intravenous (IV) D5W at 75 mL/hr. A set of arterial blood gases is sent to the laboratory. J.S. appears anxious and says that he is short of breath. 

 

Vital signs

BP = 152/84           HR = 124 bpm                  RR = 42       Temp = 100.40F

ABGs

pH = 7.31              PaCO2 = 48            HCO3 = 26   PaO2 = 55

Investigate the condition of asthma and the manifestations of the disease. Analyze the case study provided and determine what symptoms support the diagnosis of asthma. Identify the treatment provided in the emergency department and determine what additional therapies are needed to mitigate the asthma symptoms and return the client to wellness.

  1. Do you have any concerns with the numbers above?
  2. Identify what may be causing J.S. to have an exacerbation of asthma.

Prepare a 3-5 page paper outlining the causes of asthma, the symptoms that the client presents and the management of the disorder. Use at least one scholarly source to support your findings. Examples of scholarly sources include academic journals, textbooks, reference texts, and CINAHL nursing guides. Be sure to cite your sources in-text and on a References page using APA format.

Jacob Richman wrote the following: http://www.vocabulary.co.il/connotative_denotative_vocabulary/

———————————————————————————————————————————————-

USE Connotative vs. Denotative Vocabulary

Words are not limited to one single meaning. Most words have multiple meanings, which are categorized as either denotative or connotative. The denotation of a word is its explicit definition as listed in a dictionary. Let’s use the word “home” as an example. The denotative or literal meaning of “home” is “ a place where one lives; a residence.” Hint: Denotation, denotative, definition, and dictionary all start with the letter ‘D.

The expressiveness of language comes from the other type of word meaning—connotation, or the associations that a word usually brings to mind. The connotative meaning of “home” is a place of security, comfort, and family. When Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz says, “There’s no place like home,” she’s not referring to its denotation, but the emotions “home” evokes for her and most people. 

Connotation Determines UseThe connotative and denotative meanings of words are both correct, but a word’s connotation determines when it is used. By definition, synonyms have the same denotation or literal meaning, but almost always have different connotations, or shades of meaning. For example, the synonyms of “boat” include ship, yacht, dinghy, and ferry. All these words refer to the same thing, but each elicits a different association in the reader’s mind.

Word choice affects the meaning of what you say and write. A quiz may ask you to select words or write sentences that convey positive, neutral, or negative connotations. For example, notice how the sentence meaning shifts when the underlined word is changed:

Positive: Sally was an enthusiastic member her sorority. 

Neutral: Sally was an active member of her sorority. 

Negative: Sally was a fanatical member of her sorority.

Literature Review: The Use of Clinical Systems to Improve Outcomes and Efficiencies

New technology—and the application of existing technology—only appears in healthcare settings after careful and significant research. The stakes are high, and new clinical systems need to offer evidence of positive impact on outcomes or efficiencies.

Nurse informaticists and healthcare leaders formulate clinical system strategies. As these strategies are often based on technology trends, informaticists and others have then benefited from consulting existing research to inform their thinking.

In this Assignment, you will review existing research focused on the application of clinical systems. After reviewing, you will summarize your findings.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and reflect on the impact of clinical systems on outcomes and efficiencies within the context of nursing practice and healthcare delivery.
  • Conduct a search for recent (within the last 5 years) research focused on the application of clinical systems. The research should provide evidence to support the use of one type of clinical system to improve outcomes and/or efficiencies, such as “the use of personal health records or portals to support patients newly diagnosed with diabetes.”
  • Identify and select 4 peer-reviewed research articles from your research.
  • For information about annotated bibliographies, visit https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/writingcenter/assignments/annotatedbibliographies

The Assignment: (5 pages not including the title and reference page)

In a 5-page paper, synthesize the peer-reviewed research you reviewed. Format your Assignment as an Annotated Bibliography. Be sure to address the following:

  • Identify the 4 peer-reviewed research articles you reviewed, citing each in APA format.
  • Include an introduction explaining the purpose of the paper.
  • Summarize each study, explaining the improvement to outcomes, efficiencies, and lessons learned from the application of the clinical system each peer-reviewed article described. Be specific and provide examples.
  • In your conclusion, synthesize the findings from the 4 peer-reviewed research articles.
  • Use APA format and include a title page.
  • Use the Safe Assign Drafts to check your match percentage before submitting your work.

By Day 7 of Week 8

Submit your completed Assignment.
