Write a brief paper explaining what the author means when she says that the results were statistically significant.

Refer to the following excerpt from a hypothetical research article that compared memory test
performance between two groups of participants: those who consumed a caffeinated beverage before the test and those who consumed a non-caffeinated beverage:

An independent samples t-test was conducted to examine the difference between experimental
conditions on test performance. The results indicated a significant difference between participants who
consumed the caffeinated beverage and participants who did not, with participants in the caffeinated
group (M = 7.64, SD = 2.41) performing worse than participants in the non-caffeinated group (M = 9.81,
SD = 3.16), t(97) = 2.14, p < .05. Write a brief paper explaining what the author means when she says that the results were statistically significant. In other words, what does it mean to say that results are statistically significant? Be sure to explain what a p value is and how it relates to statistical significance. As a reminder, M stands for mean, SD stands for standard deviation, the t indicates that this was a t-test, and the p represents the p value.

What is the basis for the legal term ‘juvenile’ and what determines the age of maturity (becoming an adult) for the purposes of criminal acts?

This week, we learned about the basis for distinguishing juveniles from adults, what makes some behaviors “delinquent,” and how juvenile offender data and records are handled. For your Unit 1 Complete assignment, write a narrative essay (minimum 1200 words) in which you address and discuss the questions and statements listed below. Use at least three scholarly sources and remember to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the READ and ATTEND sections in your essay. Cite your sources in APA format.

What is the basis for the legal term ‘juvenile’ and what determines the age of maturity (becoming an adult) for the purposes of criminal acts? Include why this age may vary by location.
What is ‘delinquency’? Explain the difference between ‘status offenses’ and ‘delinquent offenses’.
In your essay, provide an overview of expunged records for juveniles, its importance, and the reasoning for it being necessary.
Use your text and the internet to research the case of People v. Smith 470 NW2d 70). After explaining the facts, issue, and court holding in this case, discuss your opinion on the use of expunged juvenile records during sentencing of an adult. Include what your specific state’s laws are concerning the expungement and use of juvenile convictions to sentence an adult, as well.

Does government have a different role because the investment capital is taxpayer money or is it good for a state or local government to invest in a community to grow the economy?

The subject is Colorado State Government. The chapter readings are in the additional files and any sources MUST come from those readings.

State and local governments have taken an increasingly more active role in managing their local economies and encouraging growth of businesses and economic ventures that benefit the state or locality in job creation or revenue increases. These governments argue that spending tax dollars to encourage private sector investment within their jurisdiction is a good investment – spend money to make money. Critics argue that such spending is an improper use of taxpayer dollars and worse the funds are often spent to encourage economic growth that would have occurred anyway or that governments are encouraged to outbid each other by having the private sector play off each other.
Review the economic development literature and reading assignments and discuss your views of the proper roles of government in economic development. If a government were a business, it would use investment money to create financial returns. Does government have a different role because the investment capital is taxpayer money or is it good for a state or local government to invest in a community to grow the economy? If you were a taxpayer, would you have a similar view?
