Can you please help me with this assignment. 

If you were to conduct a research study, you would have to choose between an Experimental Method or a Correlational Method. Explain the difference between the two. Which one would you choose to utilize, and why?

A youtube video on the topic has been attached for your reference.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok5W2kKG_6Q

(Your main post is an answer to the question and must be a minimum of 200 words. Once you respond to the question, then you must also respond to a classmate and simulate a discussion on their answer to the question. This is called a response post and must be 75 words minimum.)

First, read this article: Nissan To Produce New Crossover Based On Kicks Concept. Also review “Establishment of the ‘Nissan Way’” (Figure 3, within Chapter 11, Section 4.2.3 in your textbook). 

Then, compare the “Nissan Way” organizational culture with the Brazilian jeitinho cultural trait as discussed in our Module Three reading. 

Now consider both of these cultural concepts working in tandem with each other. Identify one Nissan Way value and one jeitinho value that you believe would work well together. Also select one Nissan Way value and one jeitinho value that you believe could create dissonance or organizational conflict. 

Note that this is a challenge that Nissan currently faces, as in 2016, Nissan announced that it would begin producing a new crossover that will be sold globally, starting with Latin American markets. 

Following an investment of $192 million (U.S. dollars), the Nissan Kicks will be produced at Nissan’s Resende Industrial Complex in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The facility was inaugurated in 2014 and currently produces compact vehicles March and Versa. After the start of production, Nissan expects to hire 600 new employees.

Signature Assignment: Quantitative Reasoning, Introduced Level

In this assignment, your quantitative reasoning skills will be assessed at the “introduced” level. The Quantitative Reasoning rubric will be useful for this purpose. Then in HRM520 your quantitative reasoning skills will be further assessed at the “reinforced” level. Finally, in HRM599 your skills will be assessed at the “emphasized” level.

This assignment requires you to:

1. Complete 3 tables—one each for Health Care Costs, Absenteeism, and Presenteeism.
2. Use relevant data from the 2018 Employer Health Benefits Survey for as many table categories as possible, such as annual health care costs, health insurance premiums, annual cost increases, and so forth. Some of the data needed for the three tables are not included in the survey. For those, you have the discretion to use relevant data from other reliable sources. The article Wellness ROI versus VOI contains additional information.
3. To determine your quantitative reasoning skills, it is important you analyze, synthesize, and report your findings in a 3-page paper (not counting the title page, reference page or appendices). You do not need to complete all categories of the tables, but complete as many as possible. The basic requirement is to compile and plug-in sufficient data within each table necessary to analyze and report your findings.
4. Feel free to use the same data for each table, but you should try to use examples of data that show significant differences when calculated.
5. Follow this link to three calculators at https://www.wellsteps.com/blog/2018/01/10/wellness-roi-employee-wellbeing-programs/.

Watch the videos and use the calculators provided to calculate the possible impact on health care costs, absenteeism, and presenteeism of wellness programs. (Adobe Flash is needed to view the videos.)

Prepare three tables in Word to show the data you choose. Your tables should be set up like this:

Health Care Costs:

Health Care Costs:

Annual Health Care Costs

Annual Cost Increase

Number of Employees

% of employees obese

% that are smokers

Target percent obese

Target percent smokers

Example H1:

Example H2:

Example H3:

Absenteeism:

Absenteeism:

Annual Health Care Costs

Annual Cost Increase

Number of Employees

% of employees obese

% that are smokers

Target percent obese

Target percent smokers

Example A4:

Example A5:

Example A6:

Presenteeism:

Presenteeism:

Annual Cost Increase

Number of Employees

% of employees obese

% that are smokers

% of employees 1 or more risk factor.

Target percent obese

Target percent smokers

Example P7:

Example P8:

Example P9:

Using critical thinking skills to prepare your narrative, you should summarize and analyze the data. Do not merely repeat the numbers from your tables without analyzing the findings and making recommendations for employers (and employees).

The paper you submit should include:

1. Title page
2. 3-page narrative, complete with a strong introduction and conclusion. Bring in at least two sources from the Trident Online Library as you develop the narrative. Include in-text citations following APA guidelines.
3. References page: Include your reference list on the next page that follows your narrative. List each source on the References page in APA format.
4. Appendices: Create three appendices, one each for Health Care Costs, Absenteeism, and Presenteeism. Include at least one graph to go along with each of the three tables (appendices). Refer to the specific example to which each graph belongs.

Assignment Expectations

Your submission will be evaluated using the criteria as stated in the Quantitative Reasoning rubric. The following is a review of the rubric criteria:

Critical Thinking: Expressing quantitative analysis of data (factual information) to support the discussion showing what evidence is used and how it is contextualized.

Interpretation: Explaining information presented in mathematical terms (e.g., equations, graphs, diagrams, tables, words)

Presentation: Ability to convert relevant information into various mathematical terms (e.g., equations, graphs, diagrams, tables, words)

Conclusions: Drawing appropriate conclusions based on the analysis of factual information/data.

This assignment asks you to implement Lean Six Sigma tools in your home (or apartment) or your office, in daily life. Some ideas would be 5S in the laundry room, a Kanban system for your pantry to know when to shop for certain foods, a shadow board for the silverware drawer, color coded storage boxes (red and green for Christmas items), a tennis ball in the garage to poke-yoke the parking position, etc. 

Indm 5130 Lean and Quality Management or Engt 5580 Quality Systems Engineeringg is a pre-requisite course of Indm 6580 and we studied a number of quality and LSS tools/techniques from IndM 5130/Engt 5580. If you do not remember some of these tools, please go back and read from your course textbook. In addition, IndM 6580 course textbook, Part IV Quality Management Tools, pages 313-428, cover all the details of basic-advanced quality tools, LSS tools, and problem solving techniques. 

Students will submit 2-3 pages write up of the project (s) (Times NR, font 12, single space) including pictures before and after your implementation. If it is a very small project, you can have 2-3 projects in this assignment. Your writing should include the follows:

• Project (s) name – for example pantry makeover, Poka Yoke and parking position, 5S in laundry room, organizing tools with shadow board.
• Brief definition and some details of your selected LSS tools
• Challenges that were experienced and how you overcame them.  How dramatic was the before and after?  Include data on the impact of the improvement (square footage saved, inventory reduced, etc.).
• Pictures of before and after your implementation
• References (if any)

Before health care administrators can market any health service or program, they must first consider the target population or audience to whom these services or programs will be marketed. Not surprisingly, cultural beliefs, language, and even cultural history play a major role in informing the types of messages and communications made to market new services and programs.

For this Assignment, reflect on the health care service or program you selected for your Final Project. Consider how cultural sensitivity might inform the marketing of your health care service or program.

Note: The completion of this Assignment will consist of the elements necessary for Component 5 of your Final Project.

The Assignment (1–2 pages)

• Explain which elements of your health care services marketing plan are culturally sensitive and appropriate. 
• Explain how culturally sensitive and appropriate considerations might affect marketing plans and why.

The NASW Code of Ethics provides social workers with guidelines and standards for interacting with clients, colleagues, communities, and society, as a whole. These standards govern interactions and professional behavior of social work practitioners. The NASW has also developed specific standards, which are published in the NASW Standards for Social Work Practice With Clients With Substance Use Disorders. These standards emphasize the importance of the competence of social workers. The standards indicate that social workers should be knowledgeable of evidence-based interventions for substance disorders. The confidentiality standard becomes essential as social workers must be informed and comply with federal, state, and local laws about substance use, as well as third-party payee regulations.

For this Discussion, review this week’s resources, including the case Working with Clients with Dual Diagnosis: The Case of Joe,and consider how social policies affect Joe’s circumstances as described in the case study. Then, think about any gaps in service you found in Joe’s case. Finally, reflect on how you might address these gaps or make changes to the policies that affect Joe.

Post an explanation of how drug policies affect Joe’s circumstances, as described in the case study. Then, explain any gaps in service you found in Joe’s case as a result of the drug policies described in the case study. Finally, describe a strategy you might use to address these gaps or make changes to the policies that affect Joe.

Support your post with specific references to the resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.
