Psychology Statistics Discussion: Dangers of the Average

When you were a child, you might have seen a dark brown bottle of a mysterious liquid high on a shelf in your garage, out of your reach. “That’s poison,” a parent might have warned, pointing to the container. “Don’t touch.” It nonetheless had some use. It was there for a reason. This example illustrates a principle: Items that can be misused often have a valid use, and vice versa. An average (e.g. mean, median, and mode) is not an exception; it can be useful, but if it is misused or misinterpreted it can be destructive.

In what way might an average be misused? Alternatively, how might an average be misinterpreted? For instance, how can a misinterpreted average pertain to stereotyping? How can we avoid misuse or misinterpretation of averages? Provide a specific example to illustrate your explanation.

In response to the 2 peer views (i will post in a few days) , connect students’ examples to earlier units of study in this course. For example, point out how a misuse or misinterpretation of an average relates to sampling, ethics, or visual displays.

Bacons Rebellion

Citing the Rice book, explain why this conflict happened: what were the causes of this rebellion? Then take the primary sources (included) and critique Rice’s interpretations. How do the primary sources support or contradict his findings about the causes? For those documents that contradict his interpretations, how can we explain the discrepancy? 3-5 pages, double-spaced, 1 inch margins all around, 12pt font, use footnote or endnote citations in Turabian Humanities style.
The main textbook is “Tales from a Revolution: Bacon’s Rebellion and the Transformation of Early America” by James Rice, published in 2012. Please let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

Use of case study

In this assessment, you will analyze communicable diseases within the community, state, and nation. You will evaluate the epidemiology and the nurse’s role in using evidence-based data to develop methods to mitigate disease in the community. You will also develop the teaching materials for and deliver the educational program you developed in Part II of the CSLO 1 assessment.

Part 1: Nursing Student Presentation on Infection Control

Understanding diseases present within the community allows public health nurses to prioritize health promotion and disease prevention strategies.

Explore the Healthy People 2030 website.

Review the Healthy People 2030 Objectives and Measures.

Review the Healthy People 2030 Leading Health Indicators.

Assume you have been asked by the nursing supervisor at the community health clinic at which you work to research infectious disease trends as they relate to public health program planning and promotion. She wants you to prepare a presentation that will be presented to nursing students at the local branch of the statewide university system. The presentation will focus on infection control.

Develop an 18- to 20-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation, with speaker notes, that analyzes infectious diseases by:

Defining epidemiology, outbreak, incidence, and prevalence
Evaluating the role of nursing within epidemiology
Evaluating current infectious diseases locally, statewide, and nationally
Associating 3 of the most current infectious diseases with Healthy People 2030 objectives
Analyzing evidence-based practices aimed at reducing infectious diseases
Explaining health promotion techniques that can be used to manage infectious and communicable diseases in populations

Note: The slides themselves should only contain essential information and as little text as possible. Do not design a slide presentation made up of long bullet points. Your speaker notes convey the details you would give if you were presenting. See the Create Speaker Notes section of the PowerPoint 2013 Training video for more help.

Cite a minimum of 3 scholarly sources.

Include an APA-formatted reference page for in-text citations and references.

Part II: Teaching Project

In this assignment, you will develop a teaching project identified in the CSLO 1 Part II Assessment. Follow the steps delineated below.

Develop all materials needed to properly educate the identified agency population regarding the identified public health or communicable disease issue.
Develop a method for assessment of the success of the educational curriculum with the identified population.

Step 3:

Write a 500-word summary of the educational curriculum.

Financial Restatement Analysis

I choose Molson Coors.
