What issues of validity concern you about this questionnaire? One of the validity concerns would be who filled out the survey? This survey was mailed out, so there was no way for us to ensure who filled it out? Also the state of mind that participant was in. most people filled out the survey on their free time. They could be in any state of mind, for example, they could have had a drink or two. Also, a participant could have more from that resident and the current residents thought the survey…
There are two things you should know about me. First: I get really bad nosebleeds. It's been this way for all of my life. To give you an idea of how bad they are, I've had to go to the hospital for them more than twenty times and blood has even started coming out of my nose and mouth, because my sinuses fill with blood and it has nowhere else to go. Second: I always hated field day. I live in California and field day was always in May. If you don't live in California, you might not know…
Failure to Answer a Specific Question Whenever a question is asked, in most cases, it’s not unreasonable to expect an answer to the question. If a question is asked and you didn’t receive a specific answer to the question, there is a reason for this. In 1988 while on the campaign trail, Al Gore was asked if he ever smoked marijuana. He responded with the following answer: “I don’t think this is an appropriate question. If you’re asking me have I done that as an adult in my career; the answer…
-Timing during your presentation: Another important aspect is timing. How long should you take to make your speech? Some think that it should all depend on the subject you want to talk about, which is true; but you should also think about the timing for the speech by asking yourself just how much is enough to inform, entertain or educate people. How much is enough for questions after the speech? How long is long enough, when you are using accessories or tools to help you for your presentation?…
Have you ever blamed yourself for a specific situation? While growing up with my mother, who is a single parent of two. I always blamed myself for my mom and dad’s separation. Never had I thought I would get over not having a father figure in my life. Although, yes it was difficult but it made me who I am today. Being grown up at an abnormal age can make things difficult but yet beneficial at the same time, I now help provide for my family by working and being able to pay my own bills. I can…
Biopsychosocial Assessment Critique Capus P. Barnett Valdosta State University In my endeavors to learn how to efficiently interview an older adult, I interviewed a woman named “Teresa Craig” that is sixty-five years old. Interviewing Ms. Craig was a slightly different experience from other interviews I have conducted over the years. It was the first time I interview someone that could be considered “elderly”. I gave me a new perspective on how someone older me thinks and…
Team building was also a strength our team implied. Our team never encountered any conflicts with each other while working on this project. When we were all assigned roles in the project everyone seemed pleased with what their responsibilities were. Everyone’s ideas were always heard and we were able to come up with a solution to a problem as a group. We seemed to get along very well, help each other out with any parts we had trouble with and get the job done by the expected date. We also…
Role Play Reflection The goal of this role play was to practice completing an assessment on a family, while using motivational interviewing. Since my group only had two people, our role play consisted of a social worker and a student, who was exhibiting behavioral problems in school. By using the motivational interviewing technique, our goal as a social worker is to get the client to say things and to help them come to the decision of change. With the use of open-ended questions and not being…
My research question is the following: Does living on-campus or off-campus has an impact of how students finance their leisure activities while attending MUN? My interview procedure had a good atmosphere, it had a good flow with all three of the interviewers and it was easy to carry along and get more information that made it more interesting. I did not exceed the time give for any of the three interviews and the three persons I interviewed were pretty open to talk about their experiences in…
time and money would be the most effective way to improve my English skills. I started to read some books and novels. The one I liked the most, was Around the World in Eighty Days, it was very interesting which made me excited to learn every single word in it. I continually watched the TV series Friends, which helped me a lot in improving my skills. I enrolled in an online program in a university. It was distance learning. I just had to go for the final tests. But my work management refused to…
