Using Venn Diagrams

/in /by

Instructions:

Categorical syllogisms are the oldest form of argument to be treated in a formal, systematic way. Venn diagrams, invented in 1880 by John Venn, are a handy way of graphically representing the formal structure of categorical syllogisms and testing them for validity.

For this discussion, create Venn diagrams for the following arguments, indicating whether each diagram shows the argument to be valid or invalid. Hint: at least one of them is valid and at least one is invalid.

There are some Venn diagram makers available on the Internet. Use a Power-Point to show the illustration of the Venn diagrams in relation to the questions below:

  1. All hospitals are health care centers.
    • Some health care centers are not profit-driven institutions.
    • Therefore, some hospitals are not profit-driven institutions.
  2. No tigers are herbivores.
    • No herbivores are malevolent.
    • Therefore, all tigers are malevolent.
  3. Some disasters are catastrophes.
    • Some disasters are really unpleasant events.
    • Therefore, some catastrophes are really unpleasant events.
  4. All venture capitalists are risk-takers.
    • Some risk-takers are wealthy.
    • Therefore, some venture capitalists are wealthy.
  5. All Aristotelians are metaphysicians.
    • No positivists are metaphysicians.
    • Therefore, no positivists are Aristotelians.

Additional Instructions:

Create a Power-Point to show the illustration of the Venn diagrams in relation to the questions: Use as many slides as needed. Keep the format structure of APA. Use sources as needed.

In this module, you began developing your foundation as a
clinical mental health counselor. You learned about counseling
characteristics and your strengths and weaknesses. You explored social,
cultural, and ethical issues in conducting counseling. You also learned
some foundational skills to provide Rogers’s core conditions.
Understanding yourself while learning to accept another’s experience is
part of unconditional positive regard (UPR).

For this discussion, put what you have learned into
active awareness. Think about the following: How are you naturally when
you first meet someone? How fully present are you with the person? How
will you go about developing your genuineness in the therapeutic
encounter while differentiating between your worldview and the client’s?
How will you express compassion and a sincere desire to help? How will
you stay mindfully present with the client during the therapeutic
encounter, taking in the raw data of the client’s words, tone, and body
language without distraction?

Tasks:

In a minimum of 400 words, after conducting a self-assessment related to the topics for this module, post to the Discussion Area your responses to the following:

  • What characteristics of a good counselor do you
    possess, and which do you need to develop? Do a self-assessment to
    answer this. Be sure to share what was enlightening or surprising to you
    in this module’s readings.
  • What characteristics do you possess that will enhance you as a counselor?
  • What characteristics do you still need to develop?
  • What might hinder your development of counseling skills and techniques?
  • How might you overcome those challenges?
  • How might your cultural influences and personal values impact your counseling relationships?
  • How will you maintain ethical boundaries and self-care?

Support your rationale and analysis by using
at least two resources from professional literature in your response.
Professional literature may include the Argosy University online library
resources; relevant textbooks; peer-reviewed journal articles; and
websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or
institutions (websites ending in .edu or .gov).

Your discussion posts and all written
assignments should reflect graduate-level writing skills and appropriate
use of APA style, including in-text citations and references.

Main content

Phase II—Chapters 5–8

This is the second phase of the tax return problem you began at the end of Chapter 4. This phase of the tax return incorporates the material from Chapters 5, 6, 7 and 8 by providing you with information concerning the Schnappaufs’ deductions for 2019. They provide you with the following information.

  1. Joyce writes children’s books for a variety of publishers. She has been self-employed since 2011. As a freelance writer, Joyce incurs costs associated with preparing a manuscript for which she does not yet have a contract. During the year, Joyce makes four business trips, each 3 days long, to meet with various publishers. For shorter trips that are closer to home, she either drives or takes the train and returns the same day. On December 10, 2019, Joyce receives an advance (see below) on her next book. Under the contract, Joyce is scheduled to begin work on the book on February 1, 2020, and must have it completed by November 30, 2020. The Schnappaufs’ home has two telephones. Joyce has a separate phone number for her business. The information on Joyce’s business is listed below.

  10. Because Joyce is self-employed, they make federal estimated tax payments of $210 per quarter on April 15, 2019, June 15, 2019, September 15, 2019, and January 15, 2020. They also make estimated payments of $150 per quarter to the state of Rhode Island on April 15, 2019, June 15, 2019, September 15, 2019, and December 31, 2019.
