Commodity Prices and Economic Growth across Countries

ISSUES
Most recently, there has been a remarkable fall in the energy and commodity prices. Many have
been debating the possible explanations for this phenomenon, whether the low prices will persist,
and most importantly the possible impact on different countries, in particular commodity
exporters. The project may discuss the reasons behind the fall in prices, comment on the possible
factors which may push up/down their prices in the future, and using time series models (for
instance VARs) assess how economic activity and/or key indicators across different countries
depend on the energy/commodity prices, in particular major oil exporters and possibly major
importers. Finally, empirical results can be used to discuss which countries are more
vulnerable/sensitive and possible impact of prolonged low prices.

The first one needs to be uploaded by the 13th of April(abstract)—a draft which should specify the research idea, techniquesto be used and data sourcesrequired as well asreferencesto a few articlesthat look at the same issue or use similar techniques.

Applying Ethical Decision-Making

An ethical decision-making model is a tool that can be used by professionals in psychology to help develop the ability to think through an ethical dilemma and arrive at a responsible and ethical decision. This assignment assesses your application of ethical decision-making by requiring critical thinking and analysis through your recommendations to an ethical dilemma.

Read the following scenario:
You work for a large corporation in human resources as a psychologist. In that capacity, it is your job to select and administer psychological tests that measure intelligence and cognitive ability as part of the employee selection process. The company has been hiring engineers and you notice that in the next group of prospects, many are recent immigrants from Pakistan, Korea, and India. You realize that the standardized tests you have been using do not seem to be culture-neutral and are biased toward native English speakers.
Develop an 4-6 slide Microsoft PowerPoint® presentation to corporate managers with detailed speaker notes on the selection process of a culture-neutral assessment.
Address the following questions or objectives:
Should you use different tests that are less culture-bound?
How would you select assessments that are culture-neutral?
What criteria would you use? What, if any, ethical issues are involved?
How and why would using culturally biased tests be an ethical issue here?
What does the APA Ethics Code say about the importance of culture-neutral assessment?
Include examples of ways in which culture-biased assessments have been problematic.
How would you select tests that are culture-neutral?
Include examples of when culture-biased assessments have been problematic.
Explain the consequences of not following the selection process for both the client and psychologist.
Describe how the APA decision-making process facilitates more ethical professional behavior.
