I don’t understand this Business question and need help to study.

Content:

You and four other friends, Joan, David, Albert, and Alice went to separate institutions to pursue educations after high school. Joan attended Harvard where she studied management. David attended Stanford where he studied marketing. Albert attended Virginia where he studied human resources management. You went to Alabama University where you studied accounting and eventually passed your CPA examination. Alice attended Yale where she studied computer science. She specialized in game design. After graduation, Alice went to work for GameDay, Inc. where she worked on game design. That company had a large number of psychology graduates who had Ph.Ds and who worked in that company’s Psychological Research Department, which did research work on the psychological aspects and dimensions of game theory. The Department’s research demonstrated that there were certain aspects of games and game design, which could be built into games that would result in a game that produced a form of psychological addiction. During the course of her employment, and as part of her job responsibilities, Alice became very familiar with the psychological research being done by the Psychological Research Department. After working at GameDay for two years, Alice left the company and contacted you and the other three high school friends. She proposed that she, you, and the other three friends form an LLC to develop and design games. The name that she proposed for the LLC was GameRush, Inc. She proposed developing computer games. You and the other two friends agreed to her proposal. You all retained counsel and set up an LLC.

A financial plan was proposed by Alice whereby, the production of the game would be outsourced to a company in India. Alice knew of the plant and its production through her work at GameDay. She knew the plant was in Bhopal, India, and that the labor rates were lower than most other parts of India. She also knew that the turn-around time from placing an order to receipt of the final product was a remarkably shorter time than provided by other manufacturing sites in Vietnam and Malaysia and even most other sites in India. Alice did not propose going to India to inspect the plant, but to simply contract with that company’s representative here in Alabama for the work to be done. David, as Chief Marketing Officer, proposed a marketing plan whereby he would contact potential advertising clients who would purchase advertising on the game. At points, where commercial names could be used, the advertisers would purchase time on the game for their names to be used. The primary advertising strategy was to tell potential advertisers that players of the game would use the game over and over multiple times during which the advertiser’s names would be prominently displayed to the players of the game.

Alice had access to psychological research while working at GameDay which showed that repetition of advertisers’ names increased the probability that viewers of the advertisements would buy the products and that the use of names in the context of “fact” scenarios, like games, increased even more then probability of users buying the advertisers’ products. This was told to potential advertisers as an inducement for them to put their advertising in the game. The plan was to build and market a game using Alice’s knowledge of the psychological research on building into games addictive qualities which she has learned while employed at GameDay. Everyone agreed to the business plan except you. You expressed your concerns. The psychological research regarding the dimensions of game theory and the advertising issues were not the subject of any trade secret protections enforced by GameDay. Much of the research could be found at various universities. You have a spouse at home who has just lost his/her job and you have two children. Both are going to a private school in your community where the tuition for each student is $15,000 per year.

CASE QUESTIONS:

1.Consider your concerns as described in this case and prepare a memorandum that addresses the concerns described below. Your memo should be completed in narrative form (you may use headings if you choose to do so for organizational purposes, but do not list your responses in bullet form).

2.Identify all of the potential ethical issues you see (if any). Describe and analyze the implications of each issue, including who or what may be affected by your or the company’s response. In identifying issues and addressing their implications, your discussion should be as comprehensive as possible—you should consider any economic, social, or ecological implications, as well as the potential impact of any cultural differences you can identify.

3.Additionally, your analysis should thoroughly identify and discuss at least two potential courses of action that you or the company could take with respect to each issue you have discussed. Clearly demonstrate your reasoning process—identify and explain any ethical principles or arguments you are relying on; do not simply state unsupported conclusions.

4.If you choose to apply any approaches to ethical reasoning, clearly state what they are and how you are applying them to this case. Of the possible solutions you identified, which would you recommend as a resolution? Again, fully explain and justify your recommendations. Finally, explain how you would implement each solution you have recommended.

I need support with this Psychology question so I can learn better.

By now, you have experienced and studied a variety of data collection methods from interviews and focus groups to transcripts and ancillary documents. As Ravitch and Carl (2016) explain, “qualitative data collection should be intentional, rigorous, and systematic” (p. 145). But in no way should be bound by rules and procedures as much as related to the lived experiences of the participants.

For this Discussion, you will explore different data collection methods and draw comparisons. You also will examine strengths, weaknesses, and the challenges they may present.

To prepare for this Discussion:

• Review this week’s Learning Resources related to codes and coding.
• Consider the similarities and differences in the data collected from your interview and from the transcripts of the Scholars of Change videos.
• Consider the other data collection methods you studied (focus groups, reviews of documents and social media; and your own memos and notes).
• Review your Major Assignment 1, paying attention to the alignment between your research question and considerations for data collection.

By Day 4

Post a response to the following:

• From the data you collected and other data collection methods you studied, compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of at least two data collection methods. Include an explanation of your experience using these different data collection methods. Also, include an explanation of what you found difficult or challenging and why.
• Explain how you as the researcher can ensure that your choices for data collection align with your research questions. Use your experience from Major Assignment 1 as an example.

Be sure to support your main post and response post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA style.

Assignment: Public Health Prevention Programs

Childhood obesity is becoming a global epidemic. Generally, obesity has been considered a health problem of developed countries, especially in the United States. Now, there are more overweight and obese people in low- and middle-income countries, and this phenomenon is not limited to adults. In 2010, it was estimated that approximately 42 million children under the age of 5 were obese or overweight, and almost 35 million of those children lived in developing countries (World Health Organization, 2010). Measuring the numbers for children ages 5 through 14 globally is challenging, because there is not a standard definition for childhood obesity. While there are some variations, there are higher percentages of older children and adolescents being overweight or obese in developing countries (Kimani-Murage, 2011; Editorial, 2008).

One of the primary ways to reduce obesity in children and adolescents is through prevention, as opposed to relying only on treating the symptoms and effects of the problem. Developing public health programs to educate and promote healthy lifestyles to children and adolescents is one responsibility of health psychology professionals.

For this Application Assignment, select a population for which to develop a public health program to promote good nutrition and family-based exercise programs. Your population could be as small as your local neighborhood or as large as a global initiative (Association of Schools of Public Health, n.d.). A public health program aimed at childhood obesity prevention should be culturally appropriate and geared toward the developmental understanding of the targeted ages, which may ultimately require multiple approaches. When developing your public health program, you should consider the availability of resources and access to locations. For example, family-based treatment programs have shown significant decreases in obesity rates in children and adolescents. You may want to include the proven approach of family support for exercise as an element of your public health program (Epstein, Valoski, Rena, & McCurley, 1994). While exercise may be an appropriate example within your public health program, you may not want to include swimming, because of cultural or religious beliefs.

This Application Assignment may be used as the foundation for your comprehensive program, which is due in Week 10. Please review the Week 10 Assignment for details. Submit your media file to the Week 8 Assignment submission area using the Kaltura Media option available via the mashup tool. More information about adding media to the classroom is located on the Kaltura Media Uploader page in the course navigation menu.

Caveat: Each person participating in the public service announcement must read and sign the Video/Voice Release Agreement. Find this form on the Kaltura Media Uploader page located in the course navigation menu of your online course. Submit the signed form(s) to your Instructor in the Week 8 Assignment Submission link.

Your local health department hires you as a consultant to develop a health promotion campaign for your community. Your campaign must include advertising appropriate for your community and targeted health programming.

The Assignment (2–3 pages and the 30-second public service announcement for a community health promotion campaign)

• Write a 30-second public service announcement (PSA) for your community to promote good nutrition and family-based exercise programs.
• Record your PSA and submit it to the Week 8 Assignment submission area using the Kaltura Media option available via the mashup tool. More information is located on the Kaltura Media Uploader page in the course navigation menu.
• Create a 2- to 3-page narrative describing your health promotion campaign.
• Include in your descriptive narrative recent trends in poor diet and exercise and how your program can reduce these trends. The trends may vary based on your selected community (e.g., local or general). Be sure to support your trends with the current literature.
• Use appropriate APA references at the bottom of your narrative.

Submit your assignment by Day 7. Submit a Video/Voice Release Agreement to the Assignment Submission link for each person who participates in your video.

Support your assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.

I need an explanation for this Engineering question to help me study.

Each student will write a short research paper for a peer-reviewed research paper that pertains to the week’s assigned reading. This will be a detailed summary of the research paper and what you gained from the research. Each week, you will find an article/peer-reviewed research paper that pertains to the week’s assignment. If you have a difficult time, Google Scholar is a wonderful location to find these types of articles:

https://scholar.google.com/

Once you find the article, you will simply read it and then write a review of it. Think of it as an article review where you submit a short overview of the article.

*All outside sources must be referenced and cited in your paper. All papers will be reviewed with a plagiarism software. Any references not properly referenced and cited will result in a 0 on your paper. Multiple violations will result in a failure for the course!

Must me 2-3 papers and APA format .

Help me study for my Engineering class. I’m stuck and don’t understand.

There were several important themes in chapter 1. Here are a few quotes:

“Policy-making and its subsequent implementation is necessary to deal with societal problems.” (Janssen, 2015)

“Policy-making is driven by the need to solve societal problems and should result in interventions to solve these societal problems.” (Janssen, 2015)

“Examples of societal problems are unemployment, pollution, water quality, safety, criminality, well-being, health, and immigration.” (Janssen, 2015)

The author of chapter 1 discusses several developments that influence policy-making. Select one of the developments in chapter 1 and describe how that development can influence policy to solve a specific problem.

Need to be in APA format and 300-400 words.
