******** please respond to the discussion questions below add citations and references :)*******Independent variables are the variables that are manipulated by a researcher in an experimental study in order to determine their relationship to an observed phenomenon. Dependent variables are the outcomes variables, which take on various values in response to the independent variables. An extraneous variable can influence the relationship between independent and dependent variables. It can be controlled either through statistical procedures or research design (Schmidt, 2018).Extraneous variables are a challenge to both the internal and external validity of the experiment. Two ways researchers try to control the variables can be through first, randomization, treatments are randomly assigned to the experimental groups. Extraneous factors are present equally in all groups. This allows them to consider them statistically equal for all variables at the start of the research. Second, the use of experimental designs, play a crucial role in reducing or completely removing the role and impact of the extraneous variables. It is dependent upon the expertise of the researcher to understand and administer these methods in a way that the best possible results can be obtained.Schmidt M., Grand Canyon University (Ed).

please respond to the following post, long paragraph with your opinion add citations and references.What is the role of health care reform in shifting the focus from a disease-oriented health care system toward one of wellness and prevention, and how does nursing fit into this shift? Many people are dying from preventable diseases than need be. The role of health care reform in shifting the focus from a disease-oriented health care system toward one of wellness and prevention is helping Americans remain healthy and fit and prevent people from succumbing to preventable diseases. The health and vitality of Americans are critical to the productivity and innovation essential for our nation’s future. Students who are healthy are coming to school ready to learn, employees who are free from mental and physical illness take fewer sick days and are more beneficial to our economy (Benjamin, 2011). Although the U.S. spends more on health care than any other country, our nation ranks lower than several other nations in life expectancy, infant mortality, and other healthy life indicators (Benjamin, 2011). Healthcare reform is going to increase the use of preventive services such as, tobacco cessation screening, and alcohol abuse screening.This could save $3.7 billion annually in medical costs. Shifting our nation’s focus toward preventive health will not only result in cost savings but, more importantly, will save and improve lives (Benjamin, 2011). A few other focus areas include, building more healthy and safe communities, enhancing the quality of air, water and land, thereby decreasing the exposure to toxic environmental hazards. Nursing fits into health care reform in a huge way because we are who people come to for preventive services. Nurses need to be available to run or contribute to preventive clinics that screen for diabetes, cancer, immunizations, etc. When people have better health, the cost of health care decreases. While preventive services are traditionally delivered in clinical settings, some can be delivered within communities, work sites, schools, residential treatment centers, or homes. Clinical preventive services can be supported and reinforced by community-based prevention, policies, and programs (Hassmiller, 2010). Nurses are educators. By word of mouth and teaching alone, nurses can educate people to make good healthy decisions regarding their own health. Nurses can reach people in all communities no matter the background. No community, person, or population should be left behind. Benjamin, Regina. (2011). The National Prevention Strategy: Shifting the Nation’s Healthcare System. Retrieved from Hassmiller, Susan.

reply post to a discussion board post :Discussion Question:As a junior congress person you have been asked to help promote a bill to allow casino gambling in your state. There is much opposition to this bill. Using distributive bargaining, discuss the pros and cons which might arise toward the passing or defeating of this bill. XXX’s Post:Distributive talks could be a quite approach towards negotiation or talks one thing that may be enforced once a number of the sources try to divide or distribute one thing supported the results. Here the subject is expounded to the passing of the bill to permit the casino gambling within the state. As considering Pine Tree State as a member i might counsel to push the bill within the state.Here the very fact that the majority of the revenue for the state depends upon the factors like varied economic contributions which has the touristry, exports, and varied investments. In respect of those the very fact that delivery the casino within the state can facilitate within the increasing the big revenue for the govt. and that result in the rise of the varied industrial activities. in keeping with the recent study of the Anderson,2005 and Gu &LI, 2009 prompted that casino would facilitate the govt. in many ways in respect of the economic.i might support the event of a casino gambling bar by examination the below reasons for each professionals and cons that I assessed for my arguments:PROS:The professionals of getting the gambling house within the state area unit listed below:ú State will get a high quantity of further revenue within the style of taxationú The state conjointly gets a further financial gain from the tourer inflows particularly on the weekendsú the extra inflows mean that the companies within the area unit like hotels, restaurants, public parking?s, liquor and toll booth collections conjointly increase that is extremely useful in making a stable economy for obtaining new businessesú A casino employs heaps of individuals for operations which implies heaps of employment operations for the realmú This increased revenue will facilitate produce a stable family surroundings within the space sort of a public park for the prevailing residentsCONS:As they area unit professionals there also are cons that are equally necessary to think about, however conjointly a reasoning on why i believe they will be handledú Law and order issues that may arise thanks to heaps of holiday makers sprawling in and out of the realm, however this could be resolvable by increasing the night patrolling within the space. Also, casino licensing will be strictly enforced which is able to facilitate to manage these eventualities.ú the most con of getting the license is that the issues with traffic that may increase, however the additional revenue returning in will facilitate to extend the police and enforcement to stay it in restraint.ú The nuisance that may be caused by the drug addicts may also increase which may even be taken care by the rise within the policeú old residents would possibly notice an interruption within the surroundings and also the nightlife too could be affectedú is also a rise in road accidents thanks to drunk driving.ú variety of latest tourists may increase the road rages that we’d face.CONCLUSION: My argument would be supported the very fact that casino gambling isn’t a brand new issue in America and conjointly the most cons like substance abuse, traffic, public disruptions and alternative cons don’t seem to be directly associated with the Casino. Not each town littered with these is thanks to a similar reasonAll of those cons area unit terribly manageable with the rise within the police or enforcement, all of them will be completely canceled out or maybe reduced watchfully once the state can increase the revenue for funding for these agencies. Implementing these measures currently itself can facilitate recruit and train them before the casino business develop demand. consecutive stage of discussions are disregarded to the state department for allocating lands to the casino and conjointly the local department to estimate on what quantity this might increase their employment.

reply to discussionThis was an interesting week learning on the various sectors; however, I would like to key in on the Dams sector. As we see with other sectors, it was hard to believe that private community owns the sector; in this case, the dam sector is 65% privately owned and operated. The dam?s sector is in close proximity to other sectors such as Communications, Energy, FA, Transportation, and Water. A sub-category of dams is levees. I noticed that (Emergency Action Plans) EAPs are created and based on 100-year flood plans. In the early 1900s, dams were constructed in rural areas and in lower risk criteria areas. Over time as we see in large cities such as New Orleans and Houston, industrial, manufacturing, and residential areas have located near dam locations. In other words, these locations are not following typical federal guidelines to the 100-year flood plans and EAPS have not been enforced or updated. We saw this happen in 2005 and again in 2017. An example of this is when the levees broke in three locations during Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and during Hurricane Harvey, which hit TX and LA. The Army Core of Engineers are the leaders in construction of dams and levees and they are failing. The dam had three reservoirs surrounding the city of Houston; Harvey took out one of them and flooded down town Houston. Due to Harvey, I did was unable to vacation in Houston and had to go north to Dallas. Besides Natural disasters that took out large cities in the south, it makes you curious on what dams there are in the West or in the Midwest region. Around the US, dams are ranked a D; why do elected officials and city leaders choose to ignore the potential impact if these dams or levees break? There are over 90,000 dams in the U.S. and it will cost $45 billion to fix all of them. Depending on the location of these dams, if you take a step back, how many more sectors will be destroyed after the Hoover dam breaks for example. While above the national average of a D, Nevada?s CI is a C and the Hoover dam is not part of the report card by ASCE. It makes you wonder if the Hoover dam were to break, Las Vegas and potentially Los Angles may be flooded. Dams are crucial to the water sector and energy sector, we speak of information sharing in all levels of government, private, tribunal, and other sectors and DHS has created a portal. The Homeland Security Information Network ? Critical Infrastructure (HSIN-CI) is an application-based internet portal. The portal leads into a Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) tool which aids in information sharing, access to dam sector awareness and training, and allowing people to stay current with threats and incidents from the Intelligence community. Assuming HSIN-CI is a mitigation strategy from years of Risk Assessments and other assessments, does the portal compensate the physical CI and potential threat to other cities dams?-ScottReferences
