Deliverable 3 – Evaluate Research and Data

Competency

Evaluate research and data that can help answer the research question and support a hypothesis.

Scenario

You are a first-year graduate student. You are taking a graduate course on research and writing. In this assignment, your professor has asked you to evaluate the research and data in two studies related to a research question you are interested in.

Instructions

In a paper for your professor, do the following:

• Find two scholarly research articles in the Rasmussen library related to a research question you are interested in. Indicate the research question.  Be sure to provide APA citations and provide the library permalinks for the two articles.
• Evaluate how data was used in these studies:
  • Is the data credible and reliable? Support your answer.
  • Is the data well documented in the paper? Support your answer.
  • Evaluate the data analysis and interpretation. Does the data support the hypothesis and help answer the research question? Support your answer.
• Discuss the ethical issues that may arise as you conduct your research study. How will you address those issues?

Although often difficult to define, leadership presents a pivotal aspect in any organization. Over the course of history, various leaders have embodied characteristics and qualities that have proved effective and ineffective within various situations. For example, a health director of a small clinic might exhibit a different leadership perspective than a director of staff for an intensive care unit at a large hospital. Though characteristics and qualities may vary among leaders, their primary goals for followers and organizations may be similar. Understanding the most appropriate leadership perspective may impact your future leadership perspective in the field of health care administration.

Post an explanation of how transformational leadership and transactional leadership relate to Trait Theory, Skills Approach, and behavior perspective. Then, explain under what circumstances a transformational leadership might be preferred and under what circumstances a transactional leadership might be preferred for the practice of health care administration. Provide an example and justify your response.

Step 1 – Read the Information Below

Organizational behavior is the combination of four areas of study—psychology, social psychology, sociology, and anthropology. While each of these areas involves an examination of people and their interactions, the focuses are quite different:

• Psychology studies the mind and how people make decisions.
• Social Psychology examines how people work in groups.
• Sociology explores how systems work within the organization.
• Anthropology examines how culture works within the organization.

Now, assume that you are an organizational consultant and have been asked by a new CEO to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the organization.

Step 2 – Post a Response

Respond to the following.

• Of the four areas of study listed above, which would you focus on first?
• Make sure to explain why you chose this area, and why it would take precedence over the other areas.

Review the following lectures:

• Performance Management, Employee Performance, and Reward Systems
• Organizational Performance and Strategic Planning
• Understanding the Performance Management Process
