II. Quantitative Evaluation Mille Lacs County utilizes the quantitative evaluation process very well. The quantitative evaluation process is one in which requires a social worker and client to meet over a period of time allowing the worker to take a variety of different measurements of their client (Berkenmaier et al, 2014). The two most common tools used are single-subject design (SSD) and goal attainment scaling (GAS) (Birkenmaier et al, 2014).

    Looking at lake Mille Lacs again, we see the economy in the area dramatically drop since the announcement of a one fish limit. Because of Mille Lacs residing in central Minnesota, Anglers cannot justify a long drive to only take a single fish home each day. However, increasing the limit allows local business to thrive with an influx of anglers spending at gas stations, bait shops, and guide services. We also see an increase in the overall fishing industry with extensive purchases of tackle and…

If the amount of protein is significantly decreased this could be due to the mutation deleting or repressing a promoter or enhancer in lac operon. If the amount…

Research has shown that by studying the budget process in all 50 states, we ended up with a wide variety of requirements. The only similarity that appears through this study was that state governments are primarily only concerned with the first step of informing the public.
