discuss stress and stressors and their effect on an individual’s health
Assignment title: Understanding Stress and Wellbeing

 

In your assignment you should:

 

Complete both tasks to ensure you meet all the Learning Outcomes in the assignment.

 

Task 1: Case Study (LO: 1 & 3)

 

Write an 800 word (+/- 10%) case study where you identify a fictitious individual.

Ensure that you include:

·       Stress and stressors on this individual

·       The effects of stress on the individual

·       Compare and contrast at least two techniques used to manage stress.

 

Task 2: Discussion (LO: 2 & 4)

 

Firstly, you will need to lead a group seminar where you each present the key ideas around your case study client discussed in Task 1 and discuss these case studies as a wider group. You may wish to complete a small handout (which can be used as evidence for study skills) to use within this group-based seminar.

 

Secondly, you will then take part in a group discussion where need to outline at least two models of stress and apply to your individuals’ experiences of stress. You must include an evaluation of the models ensuring you have a balanced argument that you support with academic research.

 

Lastly your group discussion you need to outline at least two measures of stress and apply to how this can be used to measure your individuals’ stress. You must include an evaluation of the measures ensuring you have a balanced argument that you support with academic research and can apply to whether this may be an effective measure for your client.

 

  • You will need to bring to the discussion a prepared set of notes (800 words) where you outline the points you intend to make within the discussion. These notes are to aid your discussion and need to be written in a format appropriate for this. They must be submitted as evidence of your preparation and fully referenced.

 

  • Your lecturer will also complete an observation form during the discussion. This will provide evidence regarding the concepts/issues you addressed, the extent to which you contributed and your level of understanding/ application of knowledge and communication skills.

write a 1200-1500 word essay in which you compare and contrast the quantitative and qualitative approaches to research by selecting one research question and showing how one quantitative method and one qualitative method differ in their approach to your topic.

Description For this project, you will write a 1200-1500 word essay in which you compare and contrast the quantitative and qualitative approaches to research by selecting one research question and showing how one quantitative method and one qualitative method differ in their approach to your topic. Plan on locating one study using each orientation to illustrate your points. Be sure to find studies and not commentaries or reviews! Remember–both studies must deal with the same general research question. Be sure to reach out to Sheri, our embedded librarian for help if you are unsure about how to find studies. Research methods classes focus mostly on studies, so you need to demonstrate that you can find empirical research, and distinguish that from reviews, meta-analysis, and commentary or position papers. Plan on submitting a rough draft or an outline to one of our embedded tutors–please–do not use the Brainfuse tutors–use FSCJ tutors via tutor match, and be sure to share the assignment with them.  The topic MUST be of interest to a human services professional or a social worker, so do not pick any topic from medicine, biology, chemistry, etc. Topics of interest to HUS include domestic violence, addiction, and substance abuse, child and family welfare, family dynamics, and so on. For instance, you might wonder if any treatment works to change domestic violence offenders. Note that this question is phrased from a quantitative perspective (cause and effect), so you would need to think about how a qualitative researcher would approach this issue because they are not interested in cause and effect. HINT–it is possible that some topics will not lend themselves to both quantitative and qualitative approaches, so choose your topic carefully. Here is where Sheri can help. Your essay MUST have a well-developed introduction with a thesis statement, body paragraphs that develop the thesis, and a conclusion that reviews what you covered in the essay, along with implications of your analysis. Your introduction should establish the importance of knowing how to distinguish between these two methods (think about the strengths and weaknesses of each approach), identify your thesis, and provide a road map for the paper. Road maps tell the reader about the organization of the paper, and what will be covered. In this case, you will present two different articles to show how qualitative and quantitative researchers approach research questions, sampling, measurement or data collection, and conclusions. HINT–we generally say that the research question determines the method, so be sure to explain how or why the research question will drive the choice of methodology. For example, if we do not know anything about a topic, we are not likely to conduct a clinical trial. Instead, we will use one of the exploratory methods. APA style is required for all parts of the paper. Use headings to transition the reader. Please note that the word count for an essay does NOT include the title page or the references page. The body paragraphs should develop the thesis, and each paragraph should smoothly transition from one to the next. This means you should not list! The conclusion must overview what you did in the paper and should not introduce any new ideas.

f Max Clara and his research had been subject to the APA Code of Ethics, explain what principles and standards would have been violated.

Module Three Short Paper Guidelines and Rubric

Prompt: The four short paper assignments in this course provide you with an opportunity to explore course concepts to develop your own ideas about ethics in psychology. For this short paper, you will read The Clara Cell, a scholarly article chronicling an ethical conflict from World War II. Identify and describe the central ethical conflict of the case. If Max Clara and his research had been subject to the APA Code of Ethics, explain what principles and standards would have been violated. After discussing these violations, identify the ethical implications of the Clara cell case for contemporary psychology. Based on these implications, examine the role of research in society and analyze psychology professionals’ responsibilities to research participants and/or their families. Guidelines for Submission: Your paper must be submitted as a 2–3 page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, oneinch margins, and at least three sources cited in APA format.

Using academic theories and a case study, evaluate and analyse key traits of a global manager, such as, the appraisal of international culture, ethics and value-based considerations following which you should carry out a self-audit followed by a development plan.

Assessment Brief- 3000 WORD REPORT

 

Using academic theories and a case study, evaluate and analyse key traits of a global manager, such as, the appraisal of international culture, ethics and value-based considerations following which you should carry out a self-audit followed by a development plan.

 

The first step in drafting your assignment is to choose a global company to focus on

At the chosen company, identify a case of a global perspective, such as an international pursuit, an expansion on a new market, an M&A, a strategy or model adopted, or any other situation that can show you understand elements related to global management – and it can be either a success or a failure (example: Starbucks failure while expanding in Australia – you can watch the video)

Then, for that particular case identify main issues that have to do with:

  • cultural considerations (in Starbucks example: cultural differences between the American and the Australian coffee drinking culture),
  • ethical considerations (in Starbucks example: aggressive marketing campaign)
  • AND value-based considerations (in Starbucks example: losing money and shutting down tons of stores)

You then start in depth your assignment sections: in the literature review analysing in detail the elements from the theoretical perspective, and in the case study your analysis from the company perspective

Remember: All three elements need to be tackled in both part 2 literature review and part 3 case study: cultural considerations, ethical considerations AND value-based consideration! Remember to focus on what is going on in the minds of the managers/leaders of the business.

I HAVE FOUND A PARTICULAR CASE STUDY ALREADY FOR YOU PLEASE USE:

Why McDonald’s failed in Vietnam?

BEFORE STARTING THE ASSIGNMENT EXPLORE THE CASE STUDY AND THE ISSUES THEY ENCOUNTER IN REGARDS TO CULTURAL, ETHICAL, AND VALUE BASED CONSIDERATIONS. THIS WILL HELP DRAW UP THE ASSIGNMENT WELL. YOU MAY FIND ISSUES IN THE CASE STUDY THAT ARE HIGHLIED BELOW.

For cultural-based considerations: you can analyse issues related to cultural differences, Cultural Orientations Model, managing global teams and networks, MBI Model, implementing strategies across borders, modes of entering new international markets, choosing the right people for overseas assignments, and any other relevant topic

For ethical-based considerations: you can analyse issues related to personal integrity and corporate integrity (corporate accountability, corporate responsibility and corporate sustainability)

For value-based considerations: you can analyse issues related to value creation, such as Value-Based Management Model, or core values, such as Values-Based Leadership Model

 

 

The following structure shall be used:

 

Part 1. Introduction. Clearly re-state the topic, aim and objectives and outline the structure of the work (150 words)

Your introduction should be brief and outline what you intend to do in the report.

 

Part 2. Critical   literature   review   about   international   culture,   ethics,   and   values-based considerations (1200 words)

In this section focus on the three areas in regards to international   culture,   ethics,   and   values-based considerations and here introduce some of the issues identified in the case study and explain where they ‘fit in’ under cultural, ethical and values-based considerations. Analyse those issues found in the case study from a theoretical perspective using frameworks and models which I have attached.

  • For cultural-based considerations – please use the theoretical models attached under PowerPoint slides weeks 3-6
  • For ethical-based considerations – please use the theoretical models attached under PowerPoint slides week 8
  • For value-based considerations – please use the theoretical models for attached under PowerPoint slides week 9

 

You could also use other examples in the literature review to support your writing of other businesses that have failed or succeeded in these particular areas identified in the case study.(THIS WILL GIVE ME HIGHER MARKS)

Use relevant references based on what I have attached as well as materials from your independent study, and beyond.

Be more critical in this section than descriptive and explain the relevance of the theories analysed.

Remember: Part 2 (the literature review) should reflect only theoretical models and part 3 those theoretical aspects applied by your chosen business!

 

 

 

Part 3. A case study about a business of your choice highlighting how the business has/ not benefited from international culture, ethics, and values-based considerations (1000 words)

For this section make links to the issues identified in the literature review under culture, ethics and value based considerations and explore them in greater depth here explaining how the company managed those issues, whether and to which extent it is considered a success or a failure, and what you can learn from this from a global perspective.

Part 4.Using a self-audit, score yourself on a scale of 1-10 using the Global Mind-set Model attached OR YOU CAN SEE THIS BELOW where you identify 3 skills of a global manager that you consider relevant having in mind your future career prospects (I WANT TO GO INTO CONSULTANCY) . Please see below the global mind-set model and the table to use to draw up this section. (THE TABLE CAN BE DESCRIPTIVE AS YOU WISH AS IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE WORD COUNT)

USE THIS TABLE BELOW TO COMPLETE THIS PART AND PICK THREE SKILLS FROM THE ABOVE MODEL AND FILL OUT THE KNOWLEDGE BOX YOU CAN RATE ME LOW IF NEED BE SINCE IM A UNDERGRADUATE.

AFTER DOING THIS TABLE PLEASE THEN FILL OUT A PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN SEE BELOW WITH THE THREE SKILLS YOU HAVE CHOSEN IN THE SELF AUDIT.

 

Your PDP should reflect an action plan for developing the three global mind-set skills you selected for your self-audit, and should be done in a table provided below. Reflect how you intend to develop as a future successful global manager with a cultivated global mind-set. (THIS CAN BE AS DETALIED AS YOU WANT AS THIS DOES NOT IMPACT WORD COUNT)

 

FOR THE SPECIFIC ACTIONS BOX- Identify resources which may help your achieve the skills you have selected to develop within : eg: can the learning centre help? Workshops available? Internet? Student services? Careers+ service? Self help reading/ self discovery/exposing yourself to new situations and people/developing an interest in those who aren’t similar to you/making time to talk to people and get to know them

 

After the two tables are completed explain in a paragraph as to why you want to develop those skills you have chosen, why are they are relevant to you and how do you see yourself developing these skills in becoming a future global manager with a cultivated global mindset and how this module has helped you to develop a global mind-set (500 words)

 

 

Part 5. Conclusion (150 words)

The conclusion is what you are going to do in the future ( I want to go into consultancy), how and why these skills chosen are the most relevant for you to develop.  Remember no new information should go in this section.

 

Part 6. List of references (not included in the word count). In-text citations and the list of references should follow Harvard style. A minimum of 15 academic references are required.
