Long-Term Care in the U.S.
Determine the average daily cost of nursing home care in your state. Discuss the funding options (public and private) that exist to pay for long-term care. What policy and financing recommendations would you make to ensure that long-term care is available for everyone who needs the services in the U.S.? Please justify your answer.
Rationing of Healthcare Services
Healthcare services can be rationed by governmental rationing or by allowing those who can afford the services to purchase the services. If you were the chairperson of a medical ethics committee faced with the decision concerning which of the following patients would receive a heart transplant what decision would you make and what justification would you give to the families of each of the patients for making that decision?
Patient 1: A seventy-six-year-old nonsmoker with good pulmonary and renal function is a good candidate for a heart transplant and his life expectancy without the transplant is one month. The patient has the resources to pay cash for the transplant procedure and follow-up care.
Patient 2: A forty-six-year-old unemployed auto worker with a history of alcohol use and smoking suffered a heart attack and will die within one month if he does not receive a heart transplant. The patient does not have health insurance nor does he have the resources to pay for the procedure.

A. After completing the Launchpad Learning Curve exercise Learning Curve: 1b. Research Strategies: How Psychologists Ask and Answer Questions (this is in Launchpad) develop a related research question/topic that you would like to explore (Hint: look through the textbook Table of Contents for topics).

B. Search in the Concordia University library databases for two (2) peer reviewed psychology journal articles for each research question/topic to gain further information to begin answering your question. Do not use the articles listed in the Launchpad exercise. Write a 2- page paper that answers the critical thinking and information literacy questions listed below. The library guide provided below will be very helpful when completing your assignment. http://libraryguides.csp.edu/psy101.

1. Write a research question/topic you are trying to answer/research? (One Sentence).

2. How does this research question/topic connect to the immersive learning exercise you completed? Look through Learning Curve: 1b. Research Strategies: How Psychologists Ask and Answer Questions (Two – three sentences).

3. Describe the process you followed to choose your two journal articles (e.g. key words used, databases searched, how you narrowed or expanded the search).** (2-3 sentences).

4. Select the two articles that best answer your research question.

5. What criteria did you use to choose each of your two articles (i.e. think about why these two articles are the best resource for your research question)? (2-3 sentences)

6. Evaluate the quality of these two articles (e.g. who is the target audience of the journal).** (1- 2 sentences)

7. Who publishes the journal?**

8. What are the credentials of the authors?**

9. How current is the information?**

10. Is this a reputable source and how do you know?**

11. What type of publication is the journal, how do you know it is peer- reviewed?**

12. How adequate does each journal article answer your question? (i.e., do the articles answer your question or topic?). (1-2 sentences)

13. Present information that demonstrates how each article helps you answer your research question. (Read the ‘Abstract’, which is usually a small paragraph and ask ‘Does this article/journal answer or cover what I am researching/asking?). (1-2 sentences)

14. Why do you think your research question important and how does it add to information you learned in the immersive learning exercise? (Here is where you need to come up with a

reasonable topic/research question – ask a reasonable and simple question/topic). (2-3 sentences).

a. Look through Learning Curve: 1b. Research Strategies: How Psychologists Ask and Answer Questions and look at your question/topic.

b. For example, if your question/research topic are asking about the function of the left and right brain hemispheres, then do the articles relate and answer or add knowledge to your question. (2-3 sentences).

15. How do each of the two peer review journal articles add new perspectives/points of view to

your research question? (1-2 sentences)

16. What research methods were used in the studies and what conclusions can you make based on the authors choice of methodology? (e.g., random sampling, interviews, survey etc.). (1-2 sentences)

17. What flaws did you find in the research design or can you think of other ways in which the results might be interpreted or influenced other than what the authors conclude? (For example, if your questions were about right and left hemispheres, and the article title related to this, did the abstract relate to your question/topic? Did the authors answer the question?) (1-2 sentences)

18. Why did the assignment require you to access peer reviewed journal articles? (1-2 sentences)

solution to psyc 354 Homework 7EXCEL HOMEWORK 7 (70 PTS POSSIBLE) Research Question:A clinical psychologist is treating 25 patients with clinical depression. She wants to find out whether these patients score differently than the general population on an emotional response scale with a population mean μ = 9.5. She is only interested in whether there is a difference, but not in the direction of the difference at this point. Open the “Data Set 7” attachment under the “Excel Homework 7” header located in the Assignment Instructions folder and perform a single-sample t-test to evaluate this hypothesis. 1. State the null and alternative (research) hypothesis in symbolic form. Remember that your hypothesis should include evaluators such as =, [removed] or a combination of these.(7 pts) 2. Remember that we are only doing 2-tailed t-tests at this point. 3. Fill in the cells for the degrees of freedom andμ, which are already known. These will be used in formulas as shown in this week’s presentation. (7 pts) 4. In the appropriate cell in the table, compute the standard deviation of the sample (s) using the steps shown in this module/week’s presentation. (7 pts) 5. Fill in the sample mean (M), using the AVERAGE function for the raw scores on the left. (7 pts) 6. We are going to test our hypothesis at the .01 level of significance. Enter the alpha value in the appropriate cell. (7 pts) 7. Find the critical t value for our test, based on the alpha level, using the TINV function as shown in this module/week’s presentation. Remember that we are running a two-tailed test, so no change to the alpha level is needed. (7 pts) 8. Compute the sample t score using the steps gone over in this week’s presentation. (7 pts) 9. Fill in the critical p-value based on your alpha level. (7 pts) 10. Compute your sample’s p-value (based on your sample’s t score) by using the TDIST function as shown in this module/week’s presentation. (7 pts) 11. Answer the 2 questions underneath the second table directly in Data Set 7, after each question as indicated. (Questions = 3.5 points each for total of 7 pts.)
