Tackling a Research Question of Interest

For this assignment, you’ll formulate a question related to psychology that interests you.You have a lot of flexibility over which question you choose, but make sure someone could study it empirically. Doing this is usually a matter of wording.

Now that you’ve chosen a topic, you can think about how a researcher might investigate your question. You’ll design a hypothetical study, drawing on the research methods we discussed in Chapter 2. Don’t worry – you won’t have to carry out this research!
Please choose among the following data collection methods:

Case study
Naturalistic observation
Survey
Archival research
Lab experiment
Quasi-experiment

-Share what interests you about this research topic?

-Tell me about your study. Which data collection method will you use? Is your research correlational, or are you trying to establish causation? How will you obtain participants and assign them to groups (if applicable)? How will you control for bias?

-Analyze your approach. What strengths and limitations are associated with your data collection method? How generalizable are your findings to the real world? Might any ethical challenges arise in conducting your research?

Personal Reflections

This written assignment is designed to provide you with a structured opportunity to explore and discuss in writing, an experience that YOU had which involved asking someone for help. In addition to enabling you to achieve some insights about your experience that involved asking for help, this assignment will hopefully enable you to develop some empathy as it relates to the resistance and ambivalence experienced by real clients when it comes to asking for help.  You will be provided with a written outline by your instructor for the preparation of this written assignment.

Question 2:_Aminta Thursday
According to ScienceDirect (2000), Managed care plans appear to attract a population that is somewhat lower cost than that enrolled in conventional insurance. The primary data would be data collected thru a survey. My secondary data would be collecting previous research data and comparing both.

Question 3: Saturday, Mykal
Can future healthcare leaders develop ways to help those who dont have access to the necessary items for Telehealth services?

Question 4: Aminta_Saturday
In order to be an effective collaborative leader to advance research. The most important strategies in my opinion are to make sure that the information or message is clear.

Question 5: Wells, Saturday
As I look at these questions I realize that I did not start my leadership career as a scholar, leader, practitioner – and I struggled with decisions (especially human resource decisions). With the scholarship and leadership skills I gained as a doctoral student, I found that leadership naturally followed scholarship. What has your experience been?

More about me: High school Senior going into college
Personality: Outgoing, Caring, Genuine
Strengths: Work well under pressure, great time management
Include:
A personal story: My first time going out with my friends in the 11th grade. It was honestly, the best thing that happened in a long time.  In my Caribbean household, I could never go anywhere it was always school, home, and church. Which was known as the 3 L’S in Haitian creole, Lekol, Lakay, Leglis. I would always have to take care of my siblings because my parents worked long hours, so i missed all the birthday celebrations and socials.

Going through this has thought me to start from home. This has taught me to genuinely love helping others whether it’s physically, mentally, or emotionally. On my own time, I would spend hours and hours helping my siblings with homework, help my grandparents by taking their vitals and baths, and with their medications

Reasons as to why I’m applying:
Ever since I was little, I’ve always wanted to go to a college that’s all about being a family. Has a great vibe, culture, and unity.

Hope this helps!!!

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON WHAT ELSE TO ADD YOU COULD ASK ME!

Read the article and answer the questions.

Just briefly answer the question. No need for a superfluous preface.
1.    In The New Aesthetics, Wilde writes, Nature is no great mother who has borne us. She is our creation. What does this mean? What does it have to do with art?
2.    Bourdieu writes, in the introduction to Distinction: A Social Critique of the Judgment of Taste, The eye is a product of history reproduced by education. What does that mean? What does it have to do with the economy of cultural goods?
3.    George Dickie discusses the relationship between the artworld and conferring status on objects. What is the relationship? And how does it work?
Thank you!
