  • “Breaking the Norm: A Breaching Experiment on Elevator Etiquette” Breaking the Norm: A Breaching Experiment on Elevator Etiquette Introduction Social norms are an integral part of our daily lives, shaping our behaviors and interactions

    We often assume that people make decisions by rationally calculating the costs and benefits and choosing the option that provides the greatest reward. However, sociologists point out the power that social norms have over the behavior of individuals. Social norms are collective representations of acceptable group conduct as well as individual perceptions of particular group conduct. They can be viewed as cultural products (including values, customs, and traditions) which represent individuals’ basic knowledge of what others do and think that they should do.
    For this paper you will need to pick a social norm that you will violate in front of a group of unsuspecting people. DO NOT do anything offensive, dangerous or illegal. A classic example of a breaching experiment is to go on an elevator and face the back of the wall instead of the door (the norm is to face the door, or to watch the numbers that tell you what floor you are on). Please be creative and have fun with it but let me reiterate: DO NOT do anything offensive or illegal!!! In addition: DO NOT do anything related to COVID-19, especially in regard to breaking public health regulations.  
    Once you have finished, write a 2-3 page double spaced paper explaining what you did, how people reacted, how their reactions made you feel and what that tells you about the power that social expectations have over the choices we make. Make sure to connect your insights to the class lectures on socialization, social norms, and culture.

  • Title: Exploring the Role of Human Services Professionals in the Healthcare System

    Based on what you have learned about the healthcare system throughout the course, and on the concepts explored in Chapter 14 of your textbook, respond to the following questions:
    Are you interested in working in a healthcare setting? Why or why not?
    What evidence-based practices or strategies did you learn about in the course that you will apply, or should be applied, to work as a human services professional either in or outside the health system?

  • “Ethical Considerations in Integrating CNAs and LPNs to Address Nursing Shortages”

    What are the ethical considerations and implications of using CNAs and LPNs to address nursing shortages, and how do these relate to patient safety, quality of care, and the healthcare workforce?
    I believe that solution thought of was a let’s start somewhere solution. However, we realized at the end that RN hands are still falling short and despite the attempt nurses seem to still feel the heat. CNA’s and LPNs, as crucial as they are to the medical team, have a different level of training and scope than RNs. Asking them to do assessments in place of the RNs can lead to complex medical situations. Asking them to lead complex medical situations or critical decisions can lead to potentially more harm than good, ultimately compromising patient safety. And when CNAs and LVNs do step into that role, that also requires RNs to provide more time and effort looking through the work and providing effective supervision – which can add to the patient load and burden even more. “Interprofessional collaboration is the responsibility of all nurses at the bedside, at the organizational level, and at the policymaking level” (Prentice et.al., 2020). And over-extending the roles of LVNs and CNAs can also lead them to burnout, role confusion, and other ethical dilemmas.
    In this episode, what ethical principles or values are at stake for hospital administrators, the nurse educator, the nursing team, and the patients?
    I think as hospital administrators it is important that nonmaleficence is ensured by avoiding harm to the patients and not placing those that have not trained for roles into more advanced positions and responsibilities. As the nurse educator suggests in the video it is important that high quality training and education be provided first to CNAs and LVNS to ensure they are well-prepared for their roles to ensure that beneficence is adhered to. I think that the nursing team confronts concerns with justice and fair workload distribution. The team remains to be shorthanded, and stresses and it is important that the nursing team is prevented from burnout and can maintain quality of care. As patients, when care is rushed or not delivered as needed, their autonomy or ability to choose and decide what is best for their health is also compromised in the process.
    Imagine you are a nurse educator or part of the hospital administration team. How would you approach the integration of CNAs and LPNs into your nursing staff to combat the nursing shortage? What ethical principles would guide your decision-making process?
    If I was put in this position, I would begin by assessing the current staffing levels and the patient acuity levels on each floor. If we were to integrate CNAs and LVNs into their new roles I would establish clear guidelines for the supervision of them to maintain patient safety and quality of care. As the biggest step I would make sure to take, it to implement continuous education and training programs for them to enhance skills and training. These courses would be mandatory and paid. The biggest concern would be to ensure that no harm is done to patients in the process. Ensuring nonmaleficence would be the utmost of concerns and that is why tasks are assigned based on competency and scop is crucial for this to work.

  • “Data Analysis: Recoding Input Variables in SPSS” “Comparing and Contrasting Frequency Distributions in SPSS: Analyzing the Effects of Recoding on Variables and Demographics”

    I will input the file the professor provided to do the assignment ! 
    OVERVIEW
    This assignment concerns an important step in data analysis: recoding. Recoding input variables (questionnaire results) is a routine task in SPSS. Recoding input variables is often used to change the codes for categories of a particular input variable or when there are too many variable input options for one question within a questionnaire. The original research design of the questionnaire may have warranted the inclusion of too many options. Often, the researcher is curious or interested in stating all of the variable input options for a given question or interested in past research endeavors that used the same scale as input variables.
    When certain statistical calculations are run, the format of the input variable is non-negotiable. Most of the time, variables need to be combined when the number of particular responsesfor one category is too small to analyze. For example, a questionnaire could have asked respondents to give a specific age, which could be anywhere from 1–100 (100 choices). The original responses (continuous data) could be recoded into a new variable (ordinal data) that reflect 3–5 categories (30 and younger, 31–50, 51–70, and 71 and older).
    Below is an example of recoding:
    Original Code
    New Codes
    0 = never
    1 = never to infrequently
    1 = less than once a year
    1 = never to infrequently
    2 = about twice a year
    1 = never to infrequently
    3 = several times a year
    1 = never to infrequently
    4 = about once a month
    2 = relatively frequently
    5 = several times a month
    2 = relatively frequently
    6 = once day every week
    2 = relatively frequently
    7 = weekly
    2 = relatively frequently
    8 = several times a week
    2 = relatively frequently
    9 = no answer
    9 = no answer
    INSTRUCTIONS
    To answer these questions, open up the Dell SPSS data set. If you have any questions about recoding, check out the websites below and the SPSS tutorials.
    1. Recode the respondents based on total hours per week spent online into 2 groups: “5 hours or less (light users)” and “6–10 hours (medium users).” Calculate a frequency distribution.
    2. Recode the respondents based on total hours per week spent online into 3 groups: “5 hours or less (light users),” “6–10 hours (medium users),” and “11 hours or more (heavy users).” Calculate a frequency distribution.
    3. Form a new variable that denotes the total number of things that people have ever done online based on q2_1 to q2_7. Run a frequency distribution of the new variable and interpret the results. Note that the missing values for q2_1 to q2_7 are coded as 0.
    4. Recode q4 (overall satisfaction) into 2 groups: “very satisfied” (rating of 1) and “somewhat satisfied or dissatisfied” (ratings of 2–4). Calculate a frequency distribution of the new variable and interpret the results. To interpret the results, run a frequency distribution of the original variable and compare and contrast it with the new frequency distribution of the new variable. Analyze the difference between these 2 frequency distributions along the dimensions of mean, standard deviation, range, kurtosis, and skewness. What do these differences mean?
    5. Recode q5 (would recommend) into 2 groups: “definitely would recommend” (rating of 1) and “probably would or less likely to recommend” (ratings of 2–5). Calculate a frequency distribution of the new variable and interpret the results. To interpret the results, run a frequency distribution of the original variable and compare and contrast it with the new frequency distribution of the new variable. Analyze the difference between these 2 frequency distributions along the dimensions of mean, standard deviation, range, kurtosis, and skewness. What do these differences mean?
    6. Recode q6 (likelihood of choosing Dell) into 2 groups: “definitely would choose” (rating of 1) and “probably would or less likely to choose” (ratings of 2–5). Calculate a frequency distribution of the new variable and interpret the results. To interpret the results, run a frequency distribution of the original variable and compare and contrast it with the new frequency distribution of the new variable. Analyze the difference between these 2 frequency distributions along the dimensions of mean, standard deviation, range, kurtosis, and skewness. What do these differences mean?
    7. Recode q9_5 per into 3 groups: “definitely or probably would have purchased” (ratings of 1–2), “might or might not have purchased” (rating of 3), and “probably or definitely would not have purchased” (ratings of 4–5). Calculate a frequency distribution of the new variable and interpret the results. To interpret the results, run a frequency distribution of the original variable and compare and contrast it with the new frequency distribution of the new variable. Analyze the difference between these 2 frequency distributions along the dimensions of mean, standard deviation, range, kurtosis, and skewness. What do these differences mean?
    8. Recode q9_10 per into 3 groups: “definitely or probably have purchased and might or might not have purchased” (ratings 1– 3), “probably would not have purchased” (rating of 4), and “definitely would not have purchased” (rating of 5). Calculate a frequency distribution of the new variable and interpret the results. To interpret the results, run a frequency distribution of the original variable and compare and contrast it with the new frequency distribution of the new variable. Analyze the difference between these 2 frequency distributions along the dimensions of mean, standard deviation, range, kurtosis, and skewness. What do these differences mean?
    9. Recode the demographics as follows:
    a. Combine the 2 lowest education (q11) categories into a single category. Thus, “some high school or less” and “high school graduate” will be combined into a single category labeled “high school graduate or less.”
    b. Recode age (q12) into 4 new categories: “18–29,” “30–39,” “40–49,” and “50 or older.” 
    c. Combine the 2 lowest income (q13) categories into a single category labeled “Under $30,000.”
    d. Calculate frequency distributions of the new variables and interpret the results. To interpret the results, run a frequency distribution of the original variable and compare and contrast it with the new frequency distribution of the new variable. Analyze the difference between these 2 frequency distributions along the dimensions of mean, standard deviation, range, kurtosis, and skewness. What do these differences mean?
    Before continuing with the steps below, watch Presentation: SPSS Recode into New Variables, found in the Learn section for Module 6: Week 6.
    To recode, go to: Transform => Recode into Different Variables => Select variable to recode => Select a Name and Label for the new variable => click Change => Old and New Values => Range Value Through Highest (= 5 for example) => New Value = 1 +> Add => then Range Value Through Lowest (= 6 for example) => New Value = 2 +> Add.
    For frequency distribution: Analyze => Descriptive Statistics => Frequencies => Select Variable => Histogram and check Show Normal Curve on Histogram.
    Including a Narrative in Your SPS Output File
    You will note that some of the questions require you to interpret the results. SPSS allows you to include a narrative at any point in the Output file. To include a narrative, follow these simple steps:
    Go to the point in the Output file that you wish to insert new text (highlight the point on the menu to the left), and then go to Insert => New Text.
    Including any text in the Output file will reduce the amount of work you need to do in creating a Word document for the narrative. Consequently, you will only have to submit one file (the SPSS Output file) rather than multiple files.
    Important: Do not restrict yourself to the steps listed. Have fun and experiment with options/layout/different stats options/graphs, etc. Read up on how to interpret results.
