The school does not allow me to download the full text but if you have in your library please use it as a reference on these topics.

 

1.Why do you believe the security of confidential therapy and health records is important to the ethical practice of psychology? What is the role of HIPAA in regards to the confidentiality of records? 100 words

2.What expectations does the APA Ethics Code require of researchers? What types of activities does the code specifically prohibit? Do you agree with the prohibitions? Why or why not? 100 words

3.Assume you have been called as an expert witness in a court proceeding. What considerations or limitations does the APA Ethics Code place upon you in terms of what you may disclose as part of your testimony? What potential challenges might this present to your professional relationship with your client? 100 words

4.This is definitely a topic we need to think about.  I think it is good to think about our own feelings ahead of trying to assist others who may be struggling with these issues.  There is one physician being tried for providing patients with lethal doses of medication.  Assisted suicide is legal in Oregon and California Governor has a Death With Dignity Act.  Depending on a person’s personal belief system, and condition, we may need to counsel them in their thoughts at dealing with a life-threatening condition.  Our job becomes allowing someone to explore their options, while at the same time making sure their decision is not due to depression or other mental illness.  How do you work with others about these issues if you are uncomfortable with it yourself?  Do you have your wants known within your own family? 100 words

5.With psychologists or therapists working within the school system there is often both APA Codes and FERPA laws that cover the records and the work.  Could this create an issue?  What are your thoughts on having ‘two masters’ to serve at the same time? 100 words

 

6.Often times a parent or parents will pay for their child’s college tuition.  But, since the ‘child’ is over 18 these parents have no rights to the grades or records.  What are your thoughts on this?  If you were paying your child’s tuition how would you deal with that?  Is it ‘fair’?  Whom is the FERPA law there to protect? 100 words

7.So how long do you need to maintain records after a person has left treatment?  What if the client was a minor at the time of treatment?  What does your reading indicate about record storage?  You can utilize the APA web pages to answer the length of storage time question.  What are your thoughts on this requirement?  How would you accomplish this? 100 words

8.It is never too early to start planning.  Death is not often planned.  Knowing what your preferences are helps family and loved ones cope a bit with sudden illness or death.  There is a great document that can help with this process.  It can serve as a living will and is easy to complete.  Emotionally it can be hard to address these things (no matter what your age) but I feel it is an important thing to do if we are in the service of others dealing with similar issues.  Take a look and let me know what you think.  Here is the link to the document, and there is an attachment as well.  https://fivewishes.org/Home 100 words

Lab 5.5 – Programming Challenge 1 – Yum Yum Burger Joint

Write the Flowchart for the following programming problem and the pseudocode below.

A restaurant wants you to write a program that will calculate the cost of purchasing a meal.  This program will include decisions and loops.  Details of the program are as follows:

  • Your menu items only include the following food with accompanied price:
  • Yum Yum Burger = .99
  • Grease Yum Fries = .79
  • Soda Yum = 1.09
  • Allow the user of the program to purchase any quantity of these items on one order.
  • Allow the user of the program to purchase one or more types of these items on one order.
  • After the order is placed, calculate total and add a 6% sales tax.
  • Print to the screen a receipt showing the total purchase price.

Introduction and Purpose of Assignment

This week continues the development of a business plan that you will work on throughout the class. The final projects of the business plan will include both a presentation and paper. Each milestone is required to be in APA formatting. The final project will include all the weekly milestones along with the additional work required in Week Five. The feedback that you receive from your instructor should be used to revise your weekly submissions before completing the final project.

Objectives

  • Analyze plans for an effective training strategy. (3.5)
  • Examine major considerations in staffing. (3.6)

Theory and Context

Developing a single course of training can take considerable time. Developing an entire training program for an organization is a major undertaking. Training is expensive for employers. Both the cost of training and the missed time from work add to the cost. When developing a training program this cost must be offset by the specific benefits provided by the program. A training program should address areas of employee weaknesses and provide employees the ability to develop skills to a higher level, resulting in improved employee performance.

The discussion of staffing often focuses on hiring; however, staffing involves more than simply hiring new employees. Sometimes it requires a critical analysis of employees for termination or promotion. Getting the right people in the right position and also getting the right number of people requires a thorough analysis of the company’s staffing needs.

Throughout the semester you will be expected to participate in course blogs. You will post your responses to prompts and reply to other students’ posts. This forum is meant to provide you a venue for reflecting on course concepts, sharing your own examples of the concepts, and engaging in discussion with your fellow students.

Your analytical posts should be at least 2 paragraphs long and substantially targeted to address the central topic/theme of the blog. In your posts, you should use examples and citations to support your arguments. I strongly encourage you to make the posts lively and engaging. We want this to be fun for everyone to read. However, be mindful that your posts should be clearly written and detailed.

In addition to your own posts on the subject, it is expected that you will be writing responses to the posts from your classmates. You should regularly read and respond to this blog.

Grades for the blog will be assigned using the rubric attached to the blog. I strongly encourage you to review this rubric before starting the assignment.

Since federal judges hold lifetime appointments, filling vacancies can be a contentious and political affair. Consequently, presidents must not only consider the legal abilities of a nominee, but the political bent of the judge too. Even with this consideration, it is quite possible the Senate will not move to confirm the President’s nominee.

The Neil Gorsuch Supreme Court nomination, filling the vacancy left by Justice Scalia’s death, drew lots of public attention, but look back at the coverage surrounding the following nominations (Ginsburg, Bork, Thomas, and Garland) to get a broader sense of the politics at work in these cases. Notice that the first three cases involve Republican nominees dealing with a Senate under Democratic leadership. This is the opposite of the Garland case.

President Reagan’s Supreme Court nominee Douglas Ginsburg comes under attack for smoking marijuana in the 70s.

After a lengthy and contentious nomination process focused on Judge Robert Bork’s extensive legal writings, it appears unlikely the Senate will confirm him for the Supreme Court.

After a contentious nomination process, NBC’s John Cochran looks at the political fallout from the confirmation of Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court.

President Barack Obama makes a new push for his Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland, but prospects for his confirmation are still dim. Two of the few Republican senators Garland has met with, Jerry Moran and Lisa Murkowski, say they no longer support a confirmation hearing for Garland, while two other Republicans, Susan Collins and Mark Kirk say they do support a hearing.

For this blog, you are being asked to consider the type of judge you would appoint to the Supreme Court. To do this, respond to each of the following prompts.

Assume for a moment that you are president and there is a vacancy on the Supreme Court. What type of characteristics do you want your nominee to possess? What would you look for in their past as a sign that they would be a good appointment?

When making your appointment, would you give consideration to factors such as race, gender, or religion? Do these factors matter? Why?

Think about what key questions the Supreme Court will have to struggle with in the future. Describe the types of positions you would want your nominee to take on the issues likely to come before their courts within the next decade.

Finally, how would you propose getting your nominee confirmed when facing a Senate controlled by the opposite political party?

Introduction and Purpose of Assignment

Organizations should identify the key factors that are the basis of their principles, core values, and ethics. These factors should be apparent in the mission and guiding strategies of the organization and should be evident within the business culture itself.

Objectives

  • Discuss how organizations should ground their principles, core values, and ethics within their culture and operating practices. (3.2)

Theory and Context

The key factors must be implemented within the foundational framework of the corporate culture in order to develop a strong foundation for all stakeholders involved. These principles and values should be the norm with the organization at all times, even though the culture of the organization could change as the organization expands across borders. Organizations may change their culture, but must continue to provide the same core values.

  1. The Declaration of Independence did not create a new system of government, but rather it broke the Americans away from the long-standing relationship they had with England. Despite this fact, the Declaration continues to occupy an important place in American political life. Why? What impact has it had in shaping American society beyond delineating the breaking point with England? Finally, what impact do you see it having in the coming decades?
  2. Some have argued that while the Articles of Confederation were truer to the principles of the Declaration of Independence, they proved to be an unmanageable system of governance. In what ways did the Constitution address the shortcomings of the Articles? Provide detailed examples linking these two documents. Is it fair to characterize the ratification of the Constitution of the 2nd American Revolution?
