Biopsychology, Neuroscience, and Human Nature Written Assignment

Using the “Library Resources” tab on the vertical menu to the left, find a recent scholarly science paper relevant to Chapter 2: Biopsychology, Neuroscience, and Human Nature,

Write a summary of the paper.

Your summary should include answers to the following questions.

1. What was the hypothesis?

2. What was the research method used?

3. What did the research data reveal?

4. What was the author’s conclusion?

5. What does this new data mean for science? Does it change the way we look at old ideas and/or theories?

6. Why is the information in the paper important to the world, you, and the class?

Requirements:

1) The science paper has to be from the year 2016.

2) Your paper summary needs to include a the title of the paper you are summarizing, and the authors’ names.

3) Your paper summary needs to be at least a one page double-spaced. (1 page, Double Spaced)

4) In-text citations and bibliography must be in APA format.

A1. 1. Evaluate the comparative advantage of a country (A1a);

a. Each student selects a country and identifies (a) its major trading
partner(s) and (b) major commodities or services in which they trade and (c)
apply that information to analyze comparative advantage of that country.
Presentation of data is through productivity software such as Excel, and must
also include a four page write up. Five scores will be administered and are
based on (a) the conciseness of the executive summary that includes a brief
background of the country, the commodities and services that they trade, their
trading partners, and the comparative advantages (G1O1); (b) the ability to
secure data from data sources (listed in section 8) (M2O1) and (c) analyze and
interpret the data (M2O2), and (d) identify the comparative advantage of the
chosen trading partner (INTL-LO2), and (e) specific identification of factors
of globalization that provide a comparative advantage relative to what would
be achieved without international trading opportunities (G3O2).

2. Apply foreign exchange dynamics and test it in a real world situation using
statistical methodology (A1b);
b. Each student collects quarterly data for 3 years on inflation differentials
and income growth differential for two countries and applies a regression
model to forecast a country?s currency exchange value. (The quarterly
percentage change is used as the dependent variable; and the percentage change
in inflation differential for two countries and the income growth differential
between the two form the two independent variables, which are lagged one
period). To understand how exchange value of a country?s currency is
determined against another currency a two page paper and Excel spreadsheets
must be submitted, including the model and its analysis. Three scores are
administered and are based on (a) the model development and solution,
significance of the statistical outcomes, and exploration of the impact that
changes in the independent variables have of that outcome (M2O2); (b) the
appropriate use of Excel and its data analysis and function tools to generate
the appropriate outputs (M2O3); and (c) the substantive quality of the
summary, including model interpretation of the outcomes in the global
environment (G3O1).

A Structured Stakeholder Analysis (TOPIC IS MEDICAID)

Select and investigate a stakeholder organization from the list below. Post your selection in the Assignment #1 Discussion section so that your fellow students are aware of your choice. Only one student per Stakeholder Organization!

In this assignment students will gain expertise in identifying and analyzing the role of stakeholders in the U.S. Health Care Sector, examining the health care sector from the perspective of stakeholders, and examining the leadership and management of a stakeholder organization.

This assignment calls for a 3-5 page report (not including title page or reference page). The student should address the following:

• Name and provide a brief overview of the stakeholder organization. Identify and describe the key health care issue the stakeholder is influencing, who is being represented by the stakeholder, the desired impact of the stakeholder on the issue and what the stakeholder’s members or constituents stand to gain if the desired outcome is achieved.
• Identify and explain the stakeholder organization perspective: Payer (insurers, government payers, and employers); Provider (entities and individuals providing services in the health care system); Patient (consumers); or Producer (a product developer) could also be examined in this assignment.
• Identify an organization that the stakeholder partners with OR an organization that opposes the stakeholder and describe their perspective on the same issue.
• Identify the most senior leader of the organization. Describe his or her educational and positional background. Identify the duties and responsibilities of this leadership position and why this position is important to the stakeholder organization and healthcare as a whole. Describe the knowledge and skills this position requires, list some of the other the stakeholders this individual would work with and describe the nature of the stakeholder relationships. Describe the impact a person in this career might have in improving the health care system.
• As is the case with all academic papers, a well-organized paper will have a clear introduction to the topic, a body, and a conclusion or summary paragraph. In addition, a well-written paper will have minimal grammar, spelling, or sentence structure mistakes and it will fully conform to all APA formatting standard

I attached the sources so please use it to write the paper, use some quotation from the attachment sources, and please read this description:

First Analytical Paper Assignment
For this assignment, you will write a 500-750 word paper in response to the following prompt
using the supporting documents. Your
paper should be uploaded to Canvas. It will be checked for plagiarism using Turn-It-In.
Prompt: In the last few years, many in the history profession have turn their gaze toward the
study of local history. While several of the topics that we discuss in this class concern the entire
United States, I want you to consider the history of Tampa in a bit more detail. Therefore, for
this paper, you must examine excerpts from three oral histories of local residents conducted by
the USF Library (posted on Canvas). How do these histories discuss some of the themes we have
been going over in class (such as liberty and freedom)? What does freedom mean to these
immigrant and local workers? What are some of the challenges they faced in their new homes?
DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS:
Essays must conform to ALL conventions of formal writing. This means that your essays
are expected to be doubled-spaced, 12-point font, grammatically correct, and refer back to
the primary documents. Please include a word count on your paper. Papers that are either
too long or too short will be penalized.
Please submit your document as a Microsoft Word file – or a similar word processing file.
DO NOT convert the file to a PDF.
Format
• Your essay should begin with a paragraph that introduces and summarizes the oral
histories that you read. You should also have a sentence that attempts to answers the
above questions.
• In the body paragraphs of the essay (aim for 2-4 paragraphs), use examples and evidence
from the oral histories to answer the questions above.
• The last paragraph of the paper should be your conclusion. In your conclusion,
summarize your arguments you made to answer the question.
Quotations
Your answer should be based on material provided to you on Canvas, as well as the assigned
reading for this course. DO NOT CONSULT ANY OTHER OUTSIDE SOURCES!!! I do not
want to know what Google or Wikipedia tells you about this topic. All the information you need
to answer this question can be found in the documents posted on Canvas. I will dock points for
any outside research!
You can quote directly from the oral histories. I am not concerned with formal citations;
however, you need to make some effort at showing me what part of the document you found the
quote. You are free to use Chicago, MLA, or APA if you’re comfortable with those citations. If
you don’t know those, just include the last name of the interviewee and the page number after
your quote.
EXAMPLE:
Armando Lopez said of the Cuban Club “They give me some kind of assistance in time of
sickness and sometimes if I get sick they give me a small amount of money (Lopez 11).”
Don’t forget, you MUST also introduce and contextualize your quotes. You must tell your
reader what document you’re quoting.
EXAMPLE:
• GOOD: Former slaves offered their own definitions of freedom. As Jourdan Anderson
explained in a letter to his former master, “here I draw my wages every Saturday night; but in
Tennessee there was never any pay-day for the negroes any more than for the horses and cows.”
For Anderson, payment for one’s work represented an important part of the transition to
freedom.
• BAD: Former slaves had their own definitions of freedom. “Here I draw my wages every
Saturday night; but in Tennessee there was never any pay-day for the negroes any more than for
the horses and cows.”
The second example is extraordinarily confusing for your reader. Who are you quoting? Are
these your words? Introduce your quotes, and then explain them in your own words.
You should also try to avoid extended quotations. In almost all circumstances, you
shouldn’t be quoting more than one or two sentences at a time. When you’re trying to
quote a longer passage, intersperse your own words as necessary. When we see paragraphlength
citations we start to worry that you’re just trying to fill up space…
Writing
You should try to give yourself time to write and revise your essay. Take advantage of the
resources provided to you by the university. The bridge tutoring program will gladly assist in the
writing process. USF also has a wonderful writing studio that will also assist. While they will not
write your paper for you, they will help you edit and revise your paper. Below is there contact
