Comment 1(Comment Follow Instructions.)

Linear correlation is a measure of dependence between two random variables. A linear correlation tells the strength of the relationship between the two variables. The results of the linear correlation analysis may be a positive correlation, a negative correlation, or no correlation. The conclusion of cigarettes cause the pulse rate to increase is not valid. The linear correlation does not give the results of the relationship between the two variables.  Correlation does not  imply causation in this sample. In a causal relationship the variables have an effect on each other and increases when one another do. In this study the only variables shown are smoking and heart rate. It shows no other variables to
consider such as gender, age, any health factors, or brands of cigarettes. Health factors along with other considerations may cause an increase in the pulse rate by itself. This sample does not give any indications of linear correlation between the two variables. There is no evidence in the statement “cigarettes cause the pulse rate to increase” to make it true without more evidence of both variables. Further research must be performed for the statement to valid. The research should include age, gender, health factors, and brands of cigarettes.

Comment 2(Comment Follow Instructions.)

It seems like that the conclusion “Cigarettes cause the pulse rate to increase” is just not taking into consideration other variables and the heart rate can only increase so much. At that point, it would not matter how many more cigarettes a person smoked, the heart rate would not increase at the same rate. The linear correlation would change as the persons heart rate increases and the more cigarettes they smoked. The change in heart rate between the first and second cigarette will not be the same as the change in heart rate between the ninth and tenth cigarette. Identifying the associations between variables is the goal for correlational analyses. If the hypothesis is “Is there a relationship between the number of cigarettes smoked and pulse rate?”, then there is more room to talk about the relationship and arrive at a conclusion that yes, there is a relationship between the variables whether it is positive or negative. A better conclusion might be: There was a statistically significant correlation between the number of cigarettes smoked and pulse rate. This statement also needs to be backed up with results from a test like the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient. Then the conclusion would be statistically relevant (Grove & Cipher, 2017).

Due Week 5, Day 6.(Discussion Question)

With so many individuals using the Internet today, the psychology of the individual, the family, the community, and the society has changed. Some might argue that the traditional psychological theories cannot be applied and therefore psychology as an entire field needs to be revamped to incorporate the impact and the application of internet technology. As a student completing a bachelor’s degree in psychology, your future career will undoubtedly incorporate the use of the Internet in very new ways. Read the following article from

Ritterband, L. M., Gonder-Frederick, L., Cox, D. J., Clifton, A. D., West,
R. W., & Borowitz, S. M. (2003). Internet interventions: In review,
in use, and into the future. Professional Psychology: Research and
        Practice, 34(5), 527-534.

Identify a problem area or psychological issue that could benefit from the use of an internet intervention. Now, using what you learned from the article, propose an internet intervention using the following guidelines:

  1. What problem area would the internet intervention address?
  2. Provide a general description of the proposed internet intervention.
  3. How would the effectiveness of the proposed intervention be tested?
  4. What are any legal and ethical issues related to the proposed intervention? Include the specific APA ethical standard(s) in your response.

). Emotional ambivalence, good, or indifferent? (Ambivalence Philosophy Homework)

Read the article below and explore any other material you would like to consult (including Nozick) and answer these questions.  About 500 words total. (Ambivalence. Philosophy Homework)

https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/insights/ambivalence-healthy-researchers-have-mixed-feelings

A. Do you agree with the conclusions and the use of scientific research in this article?  Overall, do you believe one should aim to be less ambivalent over time, or to maintain or allow their current ambivalence to continue in life?

B. Is it possible or desirable to be ambivalent regarding your own happiness?  Even if there are other parts of our life that it can add to, it might be that happiness is an exception that does not allow for ambivalence.  If you are able to achieve it. On the other hand, since we are generally pretty ambivalent, perhaps we should include that in our conception of a happy life. How would ambivalence fit, if it all, in a happy life?

2). The Human Condition: Allegory of The Cave or Myth of Sisyphus?

About 500 words (Ambivalence Philosophy Homework)

Explain the symbolic significance of 3-4 elements in the allegory (the sun, the shackles, the pain of ascent from the cave, etc.) and what you believe Plato is trying to convey as a whole in this Allegory.  Compare this to The Myth Of Sisyphus by Albert Camus and explain whether the two have complimentary or contrasting meaning.    Here is a link to the Allegory of the Cave:

Topic 1 Influenza

Tar

Natural History of Influenzas

The influenza virus was once called the Spanish Flu. This was because at the end of May 1918, the King of Spain, King Alfonso XIII, was the first to openly admit that a new disease had emerged in their country (Mamelund, 2017). But the disease did not originate in Spain. Other countries during that period throughout Europe including the United States were experiencing the so called “Spanish” Flu. Since World War I, much has changed in terms of understanding the flu and the origination of infectious disease. It is now known that the Flu is caused by a virus. Statistical studies since 2000 have found that higher mortality rates occur among the poor in comparison to the more affluent (Mamelund, 2017). People who are more susceptible to influenza are those who have poor nutrition, live in overcrowded areas, have secondary infections like pneumonia and other diseases (Mamelund, 2017).

Presenting Symptoms of Influenza

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Influenza is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness and even cause death (Influenza, 2018).

  • Fever or feeling feverish/chills
  • Cough
  • Sore throat
  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Muscle or body aches
  • Headaches
  • Fatigue
  • Some people may have vomiting and diarrhea (More common in children than adults)

Outbreak characteristics(Nursing Health Promotion/Reply/Wk2(influenza))

According to the CDC, people who have the flu are most contagious in the first 3 to 4 days after infection. People who are healthy can start infecting others, 1 day before symptoms develop and up to 5 to 7 days after getting sick (Influenza, 2018). In addition, some people can have the virus, have no symptoms and spread it to others.

The World Health Organization’s Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System was established in 1952 (Influenza, 2018). The purpose is to reduce the spread of infection by vaccines.  Based on the surveillance system, Influenza activity in the United States remains low throughout the summer months and early October. Outpatient illness surveillance: The proportion of outpatient visits for influenza-like illness remained low and was 1.4% which is below the national baseline of 2.2%
