Day: April 27, 2018

This paper has already been started, the writer just need to continue the result and discussion section, whereas in the result section the writer needs to analyse the statistic data from Spss and will be provided in here.

Results

This section will probably be the most variable. Use subheadings to make this part more structured, e.g.:

General Results

First of all you need a section for your general results. In this should be some basic descriptive results, eg mean scores, SD’s, range, etc, plus some analysis on what you found (e.g,, age differences). A table or graph would be good, if it is appropriate. Some short interpretation would be useful, eg “as Table 1 highlights, there were a greater number of high achievers than low achievers, this difference was found to be significant…”.

Each of your different forms of reliability and validity testing should be discussed in separate sub-sections within the Results Section. For areas such as predictive validity, it is not always possible to test your predictions. For example, measuring offenders motivation to change requires a 2 year follow-up. However, you can write a detailed paragraph or two on exactly what you would predict, how you would test it, and why it has not been possible to test it for this report.

(I would certainly like to see a summary section with some descriptive results and analyses if appropriate. What did you find from your psychological test?)

Reliability Testing

Internal Reliability Testing
Report your alpha coefficient analysis. Include some interpretation of these results. What do your results imply? Report what you did, and how. If this is accurate and concise there is no reason you will not receive good marks for this section.

Validity Testing (remember, you only need to do two)

Construct Validity

Do the results of your test, fit the construct? You could also refer back to your Introduction. Your hypothesis generation should be derived from existing research in the area. This will be easy for a well established construct, e.g. self-esteem, but will be more difficult for other less well established constructs. However, as with the Introduction, it is how you use the material you have rather than the quantity. If you do have less well established constructs this will be taken into account in the marking.
AND
Content Validity

Discussion
As with the Introduction, an ability to relate your results to the material in your Introduction, including critical evaluation of the evidence and the impact of your results to the existing research will enable you to gain high marks. You should also discuss the difficulties you encountered (in the third person!), and potential for future directions.
This should include a short discussion of your results in relation to the research you report in the Introduction. It should also cover the good points and bad points of the questionnaire, for example, you may find that your test is not reliable – you should discuss why this might be. You should also include suggestions for future directions, if appropriate, e.g what modifications might be necessary, where could this test be used in the future.

Read Chapters 14 & 15 (attached) from textbook and Ch 11 & 12 from Lawler & Worley.

Use technical terms, principles, and frameworks in your responses.

1. Identify and specifically describe 3 to 5 major ethical issues you would encounter in the process of formulating your recommendation. In your response, please justify or support why you feel that each of the issues have ethical implications.
2. Identify and specifically describe 3 to 5 issues related to corporate social responsibility that would encounter in the process of formulating your recommendation. In your response, please justify or support why you feel that each of the issues have implications related to social responsibility.
3. Identify and specifically describe 3 to 5 major global trends that are specifically influencing Mega Food to consider relocating operations of the Orchard facility to the country of Frostburg. In your response, please be specific in stating why or how each of the global trends is directly impacting Mega Food.
4. Summarize 3 to 5 major challenges that Mega Food would encounter if they chose to relocate the operations of the Orchard facility to the country of Frostburg.
5. What would be your official recommendation to Mega Food? Please support your answer by providing a rationale that incorporates appropriate concepts covered in your business courses.
6. Quite often, leaders and managers are required to make decisions under conditions of uncertainty. This hypothetical case contained very limited information. If you could have access to 3 more types of additional information for this case, what is the nature of the information you would find helpful. Please justify your answer.

we are writing about a system consisting of 3 sections, right now i need section 3 and the sections need to be connected. please give me a solid paper, i need 1 page intro and 2 pages fo reach subsystem B&C only (Do not do section A or D). i will attach section 1 and 2 along with an example of section 3. For each system provide 10 sources from reliable websites such as .org or .edu. enter the citations in the texts please

write 7 pages on subsystem B&C only, Do same as the example i attached for section 3 read it see what the other group did and do same as they did.and Do not change the format or come up with a creative style just fill and plug in the information in the original file fro only B&C just like the example showing just like what the other group did with their paper. the writing style should be the same as the original paper style or just like the example and what the other group did. Finally read the instruction that i put for this order 10 times before you do the paper. one more thing READ THE Example READ what the other group did with their paper and please just do the same , make sure the 3 section are connected with each other and so do not come up with things which do not make sense. that’s why i have attached section 1 and 2 so you can read part B&C only and start working on section 3

Your paper should be 6-8 pages, double spaced, font size 12. Please do not try to extend length of paper with long direct quotations or lots of illustrations. A paper of this length should not have more than one direct quote if it enhances your thesis. All paraphrased material must be cited in the text of every paragraph for example, (Smith 1992:34) which is (author date:page). If it does not, it is considered plagiarized. Please see the Guide that is attached. The paper MUST have a “References Cited” page at the end.

Sources

Use both text/articles/books and internet sources. Normally for a paper of this length you will use 3-5 sources. At least one must be a text source.

Structure:

Your paper should have an introduction that includes your thesis statement and at least two to three sections having to do with the point of your paper. Each section should begin with a topic sentence that supports your thesis sentence. You need not include a summary. If you are trying to prove a point, put your conclusion in the introduction formulated as a thesis statement.

Introduction that includes your thesis statement

Section 1

Section 2

Section 3

Give each section a title. It helps the reader follow your thought.

You will be graded based on the following:

Appropriate anthropological topic and thesis statement

Appropriate citations and references (including in text citations) All information not commonly known to peers must be cited, even paraphrased information.

Grammar, punctuation and organization

References cited page and title page. —

Sample Term Paper Outlines —

The following are suggestions with the main idea that there be a clear thesis statement and the entire paper provides evidence and examples to illustrate that thesis. The paper should have two to four sections, ideally three for this length this is flexible.

You could focus on what interests you such as their technology, foods, the building of shelters, travel, childrearing techniques, make-up of families, sharing of meat. Pick something you would like to describe.

For example (but you can organize and pick the focus as YOU wish):

Introduction
This paper is based on archival film footage of the Netsilik Eskimo in one of their last seasonal subsistence rounds. I will describe their technology and social aspects of their seal hunting, caribou hunting, and igloo building. (Describe here in about one page, their territory, ecosystem and be sure to include the citations (author date page) in the text. This should refer to the references cited page at the end of the paper.)

Seal Hunting on the Ice
-A few pages on the technology, who participated, how was meat shared, what are personality characteristics required?

Caribou Hunting
-A few pages on the technology, who participated, how was meat share, what are personality characteristics?

Building an igloo
-A few pages on the technology, who helped, what tools used?

You do not need a conclusion.

Another example:
So lets say that you have an interest in shamanism and you read up on it from your text and other sources. Then you decide to apply it to a local traditional culture, for example, Athabaskans. Maybe you would prefer a comparision format. You have found a book,ethnography or article about this topic. The best source is the search engines on your Library link through UAA home page or Matsu College Home page. Perhaps you have used one of the sources provided in the list I provided under “Assignments”

Introduction:
Shamans are part time religious practitioners and typically found in hunter gatherer, horticultural and salmon based cultures (author date page). This paper will focus on the spiritual aspect of healing, divination, and social control functions of the shaman. In particular, the role of the shaman in Dena’ina traditional culture will be described. ( all text that is not commonly know to your peers must have (author date page) in parentheses in the text and refer to the” references cited” page at the end of your paper. Please see the “Guide for writing anthropological papers.”

The Dena’ina:
In this section you could use one to two pages to describe the territory and ecosystem in which this culture is located and in general how they made a living. Are they egalitarian? Are they unilineal descent?

The Role of the Shaman: In this section you could give examples of healing techniques, use of plants, rituals, etc. Are shamans male or female or both? ( This could be about two to four pages)

Shamans and cultural change: In this section you could describe what happened to shamanism and its effectiveness in curing when diseases such as smallpox, influenza, etc. when
they were introduced along with colonialism and contact with Europeans such as smallpox, influenza, etc. (This could be one to two pages)

The model below is for an APT (arbitrage pricing theory)-type multiple regression analysis and it investigates what influences the rate of return on a company’s shares.
ERCOMPANYt = ?+?1ERSFTSEt+ ?2TERMt + ?3EXCHANGEt+ ?4INFLATIONt + ?5DMONEYt+ ?6OILt +?t (1) The dependent variable (ERCOMPANY) is the company’s excess return based on its
share price {labelled as COMPANY in the Excel data spreadsheet}. Note that you are expected to construct this variable yourself, knowing that excess return means the additional return on top of risk-free rate proxy, i.e., TBILLSHORT as explained below.
The explanatory variables are: I. ERSFTSE: excess rate of return based on the FTSE ALL SHARE index in
London Stock Exchange {labelled as FTSE in the Excel data spreadsheet}. II. TERM: The difference between annual returns on 20-year government bonds and 3-month treasury bills {labelled as TBILLLONG and TBILLSHORT,
respectively, in the Excel data spreadsheet}.
III. EXCHANGE: exchange rate between US dollar and UK sterling {labelled as
EXCHANGE in the Excel data spreadsheet}.IV. INFLATION: inflation rate based on producer price index {labelled as PPI in the
Excel data spreadsheet}. V. MONEY: narrow definition of money supply, i.e., M1, in billion £ {labelled as MONEY in the Excel data spreadsheet}. VI. OIL: crude oil price in $US (labelled as OILPRICE in the Excel data
spreadsheet}.

In order to employ a set of regression analyses, the dataset is provided in Canvas (file name: Data for Assignment 2016.xlsx). The dataset is real data, with monthlyfrequency for the period September 1986 to August 2013. The explanatory variables on the right hand side are the same for all students. However, each student is allocated a different company; hence, the dependent variable of each assignment will be different. Check your student number to find out which company is allocated to you in the ‘company share price’ spreadsheet. Then, copy/paste the share price of the company allocated to you in column B of the spreadsheet named ‘Macroeconomic data’ in the same file.

APT assumes that it is the unexpected changes in financial and macroeconomic factors that exert influence on company returns. Therefore, before analysing data with regressions, you are advised to read the core textbook and module notes to identify how to use the raw data to transform series into variables that will eventually be included in the regression model.

Required:
1. Conduct the OLS regression analysis and comment on the results. Do the
estimates give any direct or indirect support to the APT?
(25 marks)
2. Refer to the OLS assumptions and conduct the diagnostic tests with respect to heteroscedasticity, normality, and autocorrelation. If there is any violation of the OLS assumptions, what can be done as remedies to these misspecifications? Namely, explain how to address regression models that fail these diagnostic tests in your analysis. (35 marks) 3. Is the functional form of the model actually linear as suggested by equation (1) and does it suffer from the multicollinearity problem? Provide the necessary tests.
(15 marks)
4. Test for the parameters’ stability by considering two or more sub-samples, e.g., the time between September 1986 and December 1999; and the time between January 2000 and August 2013. You can think of other periods such as the 2007-08 financial crisis. (15 marks) 5. Are there any other diagnostic tests that you might have considered? Provide them if the answer is ‘yes’.(10 marks)

NOTES:
– Word limit: 2,500 to 3,000 words (excluding references and appendices)
– Submission deadline: 15 December 2016, by 4 p.m. (It is suggested that students should submit by around 3 p.m. to avoid the possibility of late submissions due to technical reasons. See Canvas, module handbook for
further details).- You are expected to refer to and use academic journal articles for any section above. – You may have sections in your assignment. e.g., section 1 introduction; section 2 background about APT; section 3 Diagnostics tests,…. etc. Then, the last
section can be conclusion.
