STEPS
1. Define the problem

Questions to Prompt Critical Thinking 1

HCS/465 May 2017

page1image3560

  1. What is the problem identified in the research article?
    Example: The Ebola outbreak and its prevalence in West African nations.

  2. Why is it a problem?

    Example: The Ebola outbreak is a disease that is contracted from… Its symptoms are… (x) amount of people die each year… This is a problem because…

  3. What is the problem that the study is trying to resolve?

    Example: Ebola has spread among the West African people because of… This research seeks to identify solutions that will prevent it from spreading among the African people.

  4. Why is the problem important for health care administrators to study?
    The research article may not identify a specific reason why the research is important to health care administrators. That is okay. Write about why a health care administrator would want to study this topic. How could knowledge of this topic help you as a health care administrator?

    Example: As an assistant manager of a nursing home, I know that many of the residents have watched the news reports on the Ebola outbreak in Africa and its potential outbreak in the United States. Since I know little about the disease and knowing the concern that the reporting of this disease has brought on the residents of the nursing home, I felt that it was my responsibility to know more about the disease and how to prevent its spread. Providing the residences with this knowledge can go a long way towards calming their fears and enabling them and their caregivers to take measures to prevent any outbreak.

  1. Identify the purpose

    1. What is the purpose of the research study?

    2. What is the reserarcher(s) trying to accomplish in the study?

      If the answers to these questions are not expressly stated in the article, consider its entirety and then write what you think the answers are.

      Example: The purpose of the study was to create awareness of the Ebola outbreak, to provide statistical data to give an accurate account of the scope of the outbreak and to identify known methods to minimize exposure, recognize symptoms and prevent outbreaks.

  2. Identify the hypothesis or research question

    1. Was a hypothesis or research question given in the research article? If so what? If not, why?

    2. Was the initial hypothesis confirmed or the initial research question answered or was it disproved by the research?

Questions to Prompt Critical Thinking 2

HCS/465 May 2017

Example: The initial hypothesis made by the author stated that “though Ebola is unfamiliar to most people, it is familiar to the medical community and measures have been established to prevent exposure and treatments to support patients”. The research provided by the author identifies clearly the origin of the disease and how it is contracted and spread among people. The research explains in depth the living conditions that exist in the West African nations and why the disease is so prevalent. It further identifies and explains existing research conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that confirms the medical community’s awareness of the disease and established protocol to prevent it. The evidence provided by the author leads me to believe that the initial hypothesis is valid.

4. Study variables

a. What is (are) the dependent and independent study variables?

Dependent variables represent ‘outputs’ or ‘effects’, typically the main variable studied. Independent variables represent ‘inputs’ and can have any value. These may or may not influence the dependent variable.

Example: The study collected data that observed changes in the number of people becoming infected by the Ebola virus by varying amounts of education/awareness being facilitated by the American Red Cross. The amount of attention given by the American Red Cross is an independent variable while the number of people who were or were not infected after public awareness efforts is a dependent variable.

Assignment 2: Discussion—DNA Profiling

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) profiling is a laboratory method used by forensic scientists to determine the identification of individuals by their unique DNA signature. Also known as DNA testing, this method has been used to diagnose potential genetic disorders, identify heritage, and provide forensic evidence.

Respond to the following:

  • Discuss scientific and technical concepts related to DNA profiling. Consider the following:
    • Describe how a sample of DNA is collected and prepared for study.
    • State the steps involved in determining the DNA sequence of a sample.
    • Discuss one type of DNA sequencing and the steps involved in that method.
  • Provide an example of the application of DNA profiling and discuss its efficacy related to this particular application. Consider the following:
    • Why is DNA testing important to this application?
    • What questions are addressed in this application?
    • What are the unique steps or techniques in this application that must be followed for it to be effective?
    • What alternative methods might be employed to address the same questions that can be answered via DNA testing?

Provide a minimum of two scholarly references. These scholarly references should be peer reviewed and from authoritative sources.

Write your initial response in 2–3 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

By Saturday, March 25, 2017, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through Wednesday, March 29, 2017, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses.

  1. Specific Hypothesis.  Introduce your paper by identifying the specific hypothesis you are evaluating in this paper. 
  2. Applicable Sociological Concepts. Identify the sociological theories and terminology from the text that apply to your social issue
  3. Practical Implications.  Discuss the value of sociological research into your issue.  Determine whether or not there are (or would be) practical implications of sociological inquiry into this issue.   
  4. Evidence.  This is the most important part of the paper.  Analyze  at least two (2) lines of evidence that pertain to the hypothesis you are evaluating.  Does the evidence support your hypothesis?  For each type of evidence, consider possible biases and alternative interpretations.  
  5. Conclusions.  Draw conclusions based on the evidence that you have discovered. Does the evidence confirm or refute your hypothesis?  Is the evidence sufficiently convincing to draw firm conclusions about your hypothesis?  

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Evaluate the various methodologies for sociological research.
  • Apply the sociological perspective to a variety of socioeconomic and political problems.
  • Critically examine how society shapes individuals and how individuals shape society.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in sociology.
  • Write clearly and concisely about sociology using proper writing mechanics.

Even with your abstract which is not required nor requested you have two and a half pages. You do not have in-text citations for each of the refs you have listed. You have an in-text citation that does not have a corresponding ref. This is just a draft, so for your final paper follow the instructions for the assignment and check your paper against the grading rubric. You did not use the Turnitin feature so I hope that your matching percentage does not exceed 20%.
