Learning Activity #8: Price Control Paper

Order Description

Objective 5: Analyze the concept of price and price controls and the interaction within the economy.

Price controls instituted by the government set price limits that sellers can ask for certain products. Price controls can set a legal maximum or minimum limit on the cost of a product. While price controls are often pushed for by the public, price controls have several negative impacts. First, price controls reduce gains made through trade. Secondly, price controls often result in unintended consequences through impact on related, but not directly affected, parts of the market.

Week 1 – 6105-1 Assignment: Prepare and Submit a Topic for Research Review

Hide Folder Information

Turnitin®

Turnitin® enabled This assignment will be submitted to Turnitin®.

Instructions

Warm-up Activity 1.1

Browse previous readings to find topics that have been of great interest to you during your course of studies. (My Research topic has been: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Children).

Warm-up Activity 1.2

Browse the website of the American Psychological Association (APA). On the horizontal navigational bar at the top of the page, click on Psychology Topics. This will lead you to a page with “tags” or topics that are of interest to psychologists today. Clicking on one of these tags will take you to a page dedicated to that topic. There you will find articles, books, and other resources, both print and electronic, which will help you brainstorm your topic.

 

Warm-up Activity 1.3

Enter key words in a search engine which clusters results, such as Yippy. This search engine groups findings under topics and places the key word in relation to other concepts. This can also help you to get an overview of the field related to your original topic.

 

Warm-up Activity 1.4

Read Writing a Psychology Literature Review from the University of Washington Writing Center. Pay special attention to the beginning section on how to choose a topic. (Note: Disregard information on APA form and style in this article.)

 

Warm-up Activity 1.5

Gather your ideas into a visual mind map, as described in Learn How to Draw Mindmaps – MindTools. You might start developing your mind map offline with paper and pencil. When you are ready to copy it electronically you have a few choices. You can:

 

Use a mindmapping software package like (MindGenuis) referred to in the article or (MindJet’s MindManager);

Use a mindmapping tool that has shareware application and is available for free (http://www.mind42.com) or has limited free subscription like (MindMeister);

Build your mind map in Word.

If you are using a mindmapping software, export and save the mindmap in a format that easily viewable by others who do not have access to that software. User friendly file formats include: jpg, png, pdf, rtf or doc.

 

Assignment

In this assignment, submit the topic for your research review and reflect on how you made use of the resources listed above and in what way they were helpful. (My Research Topic: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Children)

You will also submit a mind map showing the topic you brainstormed and the key ideas related to it. Submit the mind map and the reflective paper to your course classroom as one document.

 

Your faculty will give you feedback concerning the appropriateness of the topic you have chosen. Remember that the topic must be one that relates to an issue in psychology that is related to the welfare of the human being (examples of broad topics include bullying, television violence, prison reform, depression in the workplace, divorce in military families, adherence to medical regimens).

It also needs to be a topic for which solutions have been proposed and researched in the literature because you will eventually evaluate the evidence-based programs related to your topic.

 

Length: a 1-page reflection paper, and a 1-page mind map.

Your mind map and paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.

University of Phoenix Material – Week 7 Homework Exercise  CCMH/525 Version 3

 

Answer the following questions in 25 to 50 words each, covering material from Ch. 13 of Methods in Behavioral Research:

 

1. A researcher is studying the effects of yoga on depression. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: yoga and medication, which is the experimental group; or support group and medication, which is the control group. What is the null hypothesis? What is the research hypothesis?
2. In the scenario described in the previous question, the researcher implements two programs simultaneously: a six-week yoga program coupled with medication management and a six-week support group program coupled with medication management. At the end of the six weeks, participants complete a questionnaire measuring depression. The researcher compares the mean score of the experimental group with the mean score of the control group. What statistical test would be most appropriate for this purpose? Explain your response.
3. In the scenario described in the previous questions, the researcher predicted that participants in the experimental group—yoga plus medication—would score significantly lower on measures of depression than would participants in the control group—support group plus medication. True or false: A two-tailed test of significance is most appropriate in this case. Explain your response.
4. Explain the relationship between the alpha level, or significance level and Type 1 error.
5. A researcher is studying the effects of sex—male and female—and dietary sugar on energy level. Male and female participants agree to follow either a high-sugar or a low-sugar diet for eight weeks. The researcher asks the participants to complete a number of questionnaires, including one assessing energy level, before and after the program. The researcher is interested in determining whether a high- or a low-sugar diet affects reported energy levels differently for men and women. At the end of the program, the researcher examines scores on the energy level scale for the following groups:
6. Men: low-sugar diet
7. Men: high-sugar diet
8. Women: low-sugar diet
9. Women: high-sugar diet

What statistic could the researcher use to assess the data?

6. Use the information presented in the previous question to discuss one possible main effect that might emerge from the analysis and one possible interaction that might emerge.
