Week 4 Discussion- Writing

Discussion: Methods

As you build a research article summary in the
Discussion, you put together three key points: the study’s purpose, the
methods, and the findings. If the purpose answers the “Why?” question (Why was this study conducted?), then the methods answer the “How?” (How did the researchers conduct the study?).

For this Discussion, you summarize the methods of the sample research study and reflect on the process.

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review the materials on summarizing and using citations.
  • Access the research article found in the Learning Resources.

By Day 4

Post your initial 1- to 2-paragraph response that addresses the following:

  • What was the method(s) used by the authors in the study? Summarize the methods in your own words and include a citation.
  • Additionally, reflect on the process of summarizing the methods.
    Pose any questions and/or explain challenges that came up during the
    process.

The Mighty Motor Car Co. and the Novel Automobile Corp. manufacture cars and trucks in Country J. They recently entered into a noncompetition agreement with the approval of the Country J Ministry of Trade. The agreement provides (a) that Mighty will sell its vehicles in the United States and that Novel will not and (b) that Novel will sell its vehicles in the EU and that Mighty will not. Since the signing of this agreement, the Foreign Car and Truck Import Co., a U.S. importer of Novel cars and light trucks, is unable to obtain vehicles to import to the United States. As a consequence, it has brought suit against Novel in a U.S. court alleging that the agreement between Mighty and Novel violated the U.S. Sherman Antitrust Act. Novel has asked the court to dismiss the case for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. Should it do so? Discuss.

Part 1

When children are adopted, they are sometimes taken from one cultural group and transplanted to another. In some cases, the adoptive families ignore or overlook the former culture. In other cases, families learn about the former culture and teach children the best that they can.

Using the Internet, and other sources, conduct research on the topic of adoption and how it relates to culture, particularly with respect to parents who adopt children from dissimilar cultural groups.

In your response, address the following:

  • The process of enculturation starts early and is often learned incidentally. Let’s say that an adoptive family adopts a child from a drastically different cultural group. If the family makes an effort, would it be able to teach the child about the culture of his or her biological family? Using some of the terminology from the course, elaborate your answer. Include the challenges that parents might face as they try to teach the child about a culture that is foreign to them.
  • Would the educational process be more difficult for cultures that have an oral tradition? What about all of the customs and practices that are taught through demonstration and imitation?
  • Consider what happens as the child grows up and interacts with others in the society. Does the age of adoption or physical appearance (e.g., the child has skin color and hair that is different from his adoptive family) play a role in whether the adoptive family should make an effort to teach the child about his or her former culture? Explain your answer.

Part 2

SWB is based on how the quality of a person’s life is and how satisfied a person is with his or her life. When determining a person’s level of well-being, a person factors in things such as moods, emotion, general satisfaction, and specific satisfaction into his or her mental equation. Studies show that SWB is positively related to health, and healthy people tend to report that they are happier than unhealthy people as they do not live with pain or serious physical limitations. To some extent, SWB is also tied to wealth. However, there are other variables that are important to SWB.

In your response, address the following:

  • Research SWB and wealth. Do wealthier people report greater SWB than the people who are not wealthy? Discuss the relationship between SWB and wealth—consider the spectrum of socioeconomic levels from those who cannot meet their basic needs to those who have an abundance of material possessions. Is the relationship between SWB and wealth positive and linear, or does it become less linear as people become extremely wealthy? In the context of this course, discuss whether there are cultural differences in SWB that do not seem to be simply related to wealth.
  • Happiness is one way to measure SWB. Search the South University Online Library and the Internet to find scholarly research articles on happiness and well-being. Discuss your findings. Some studies indicate that there is another variable that is important for maintaining a high level of SWB. State the variable and discuss whether there is some universal aspect to this finding. (Does the outstanding variable stay relatively consistent across cultures?)
  • Some societies have a relatively even wealth distribution. Discuss how the societal wealth distribution impacts the SWB of a cultural group.

Critical Thinking Assignment Option #1: Intrinsic and Extrinsic Rewards

For this assignment, imagine that you are an organizational change consultant who has been asked to propose intrinsic and extrinsic reward plans to an organization (of your choice). In your proposal, you will not only formulate the plans but also analyze their worth to the organization as part of the firm’s implementation of a new social responsibility change plan. That change plan will task employees with new or additional duties; thus the reward plans should aim to support employee attitude and behavior including increasing creativity and problem-solving skills.

Spector (2013) says this about reward plans: “Incentive pay, regardless of the specific design, is an extrinsic reward: a reward external to the individual and provided by the organization. Money is the most obvious and prevalent example of an extrinsic reward. Motivational theory tells us that extrinsic rewards, although powerful, may not be terribly effective in driving long‐term behavioral change” (p. 142).

Directions:

  1. Your proposal will be 4‐5 pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages, which you must include. Be sure the paper is formatted according to the APA Guidlines Always review an assignment’s grading rubric.
  2. Incorporate at least two scholarly sources to support your analysis (you may not use the required readings in the course for this requirement). The CSU‐Global Library is a good place to find your sources. The following resources might provide you with additional ideas for your analysis:

Manchester United Soccer Club

  • Submit 1st case review (Chapter 4 – ‘Manchester United Soccer Club’, pages 122-123)
  • from this text book …Gray, Clifford; & Larson, Erik (2006). Project Management The Managerial Process. Third Edition.
    New York: McGraw-Hill/Irwin ISBN 978-0-07-297863-6
  • CASE REVIEWS: At a minimum, the case write-up should include, in this order:
    a. Executive Summary of the case: Titled as such, two brief paragraphs detailing
    the case or scenario and your understanding of it, written from a ‘First Person
    Narrative Mode’ point of view. An additional Abstract is not required.
    b. Question numbers: You do not need to write out the questions, but where
    applicable, you do need to number the answers. Some reviews may not have
    formally numbered questions; in this case, answers would reflect the topics
    embedded in the cases or scenarios.
    c. Answers to the questions: All your answers should reflect your understanding of the
    case, the material in the chapter, additional research (if any), and your personal
    knowledge and life experience. A simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’, or other short answer is not
    considered an acceptable response. Adequate justification and/or explanation of
    your statements are required.
    d. Content of the case: Most reviews should, at a minimum, be at least two (3) pages
    in length (excluding any cover page), and include sufficient explanations,
    diagramming, charts, etc. to present a thorough analysis of the issue(s) posed.
  • Requirements for Homework Assignments and Projects:
    1. All documents should be professionally presented, neat, and concise. All effort should be
    made to write well technically (spelling, punctuation, complete sentences, and proper
    grammar). References should be noted at the end of the paper. Please use the APA format
    for your work.
    2. All papers MUST BE TYPED AND DOUBLE SPACED, using a 12-point ‘serif’ type of font, such
    as Times New Roman.
    3. Points WILL be deducted from documents that do not conform to the above standard. If
    you are unclear about a particular requirement, please ask.
