    Once you have implemented your organizational and leadership development plans, you need to apply strategies for improving employee relations as well as performance. This means your leadership team should be ready to address any type of issue that arises with employees, including the relationship between productive and counterproductive behaviors. The development of a final piece to your organizational culture puzzle is the development and implementation of an employee relations plan to address such issues before they become a problem within an organizations culture.

    Imagine ACME Industries has a final assignment for you after the success of your previous projects. With an organizational and leadership development plan now both in place, the CEO asks you to analyze the relationship between productive and counterproductive behaviors in the company and assess the benefits of implementing an employee relations plan.

    Research employee relations plans.

    Prepare a 1,050- to 1,400-word employee relations analysis, assessment, and plan.

    Include the following in your analysis, assessment, and plan:

    • From your point of view, identify the top 5 productive and top 5 counterproductive behaviors in an organization.
    • Analyze the relationship between your identified behaviors.
    • Identify potential issues that might arise from these behaviors.
    • Explain what an employee relations plan for ACME will look like, addressing all elements such a plan might include.
    • Assess the impact that implementing an employee relations plan would have on ACMEs overall culture.
    • Recommend strategies to implement an employee relations plan at ACME Industries.
    • How will these strategies eliminate a toxic work environment?
    • How will these strategies ensure a fair and equitable place to work for all employees at ACME?
  • Developmental theory verse critical criminology

    Developmental theory is one of the most dominate theories of criminality to date. Critical Criminology is made of newer and evolving theories. For this reason, it is important for future forensic psychologists to understand these concepts. For this assignment, find one criminal case (from a scholarly article, not a news source) that fits with developmental theory and one case that fits with critical criminology to compare and contrast. Using three to five scholarly sources to support your ideas, write a 500-750-word essay that addresses the following prompts: 1.Explain why the case you selected is an example of either developmental theory and critical criminology. Differentiate between the principles of developmental theory and critical criminology. 2.Explain how principal theorists from the two theories would view the cases you chose. Explain how significant studies from those theorists relate to the cases chosen.
  • Psychology Question

    PART 1: SUPPORTING AREAS OF ABA PRACTICE

    Using Figure 1.3 (“Improving People’s Quality of Life from A to Z”) in Chapter 1 of Cooper et al. (2020), select three different areas of practice where Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) can be effectively used to enhance the quality of life in real-world settings. You will use , formatted like an Annotated Bibliography, to organize your information. For each area selected, locate and summarize a recent peer-reviewed journal article (not included in the course readings) that illustrates how an ABA-based intervention improved an individual’s quality of life.

    Under each article summary, refer to your course readings to briefly discuss at least three specific key points that support how the intervention’s procedures and results reflect the application of fundamental ABA principles in producing behavior change.

    PART 2: RESPONDENT/OPERANT CONDITIONING ANALYSIS

    You will create a 6-8 slide PowerPoint presentation to guide your discussion of each of the outlined sections. Your presentation will be a narrated screen recording using Kaltura, which will be uploaded into the Unit 5 Assignment Dropbox, along with a copy of your PPT slide deck. Your PPT presentation should include a Title Slide and end with a reference slide formatted in APA.

    Using the scenario of you will analyze the respondent and operant conditioning relationships in the scenario and discuss their implications using behavior-analytic terms. Then, you will establish a simple plan that considers schedules of reinforcement and the use of various possible differential reinforcement procedures to support a change in Cindys behavior.

    INSTRUCTIONS:

    • Identify the respondent conditioning relationships in the scenario (i.e., stimulus-response pairs) using behavior-analytic vocabulary.
    • Discuss the elements of time and environment that influence Cindys respondent behavior.
    • Explain how the reflexive stimulus-response relationship could be reversed, providing examples of extinction or counterconditioning.
    • Create a diagram that visually represents the respondent conditioning relationships in the scenario.
    • Identify the operant conditioning relationships in the scenario (i.e., stimulus – response stimulus relations) using behavior analytic vocabulary.
    • Discuss the process of operant learning that occurred that maintained Cindys behaviors.
    • Establish a simple plan, providing examples of how different schedules of reinforcement (including the matching law) and a variety of differential reinforcement methods could be used to change Cindys behaviors. Also, discuss which methods would not be suggested and why.
    • If punishment were an option, describe, with a rationale, how you might implement a punishment procedure, identifying the anticipated outcome.

    Submit a 45-minute narrated Kaltura video of yourself, your slides, and any diagrams to discuss key concepts.

    Please review and follow the assignment requirements in the next tab titled Assignment Details.

  • standardizing measurement scores

    Testing and Measurements Week 9: Standardizing Measurement Scores Information about test norms allows you to equate scores across different tests of the same construct and lets you compare individuals to each other. Once you have the mean and standard deviation of a score, you can calculate an individuals z-score. Z-scores, also known as standard scores, tell you how many standard deviations away from the mean an individual is. Scores that are two standard deviations away from the mean represent the most extreme 5% of the population and often are considered to be unusual enough to warrant special consideration, such as a clinical diagnosis. For instance, IQ scores that are two standard deviations above the mean (130 or greater) are considered in a gifted range, and scores two standard deviations below the mean (70 or lower) are considered intellectually deficient. Scores on measures of depression that are two standard deviations above the mean often are considered to represent clinical depression. T-scores are another kind of standard score; the MMPI is the best-known example of a test that uses T-scores. (Note that T-scores have nothing to do with t-tests.) Z-scores have a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1; T-scores have a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Thus, the average score on a test would be assigned a T-score of 50 and a z-score of zero. A score that was one standard deviation below average would be assigned a T-score of 40 and a z-score of -1. For this Assignment, you will practice converting raw test scores into more meaningful standardized scores. To prepare for this Assignment: Download the Week 9 Assignment Template (Word document)Download Week 9 Assignment Template (Word document) Download the SPSS Data file Ocean Week 9.savDownload SPSS Data file Ocean Week 9.sav Read the assigned pages in the SPSS Instructions on how to transform raw scores into standardized scores. Use the Week 9 Assignment Template to properly organize, format, and present your standardized scores. Submit a 2-page paper (not including references) that addresses the following: Using the OCEAN SPSS data file, convert the OCEAN measures to T-scores, percentile scores, and z-scores. Then, split the file based on gender and compute the means and standard deviations for the male and female respondents in the sample, and summarize these in an APA Style table. Finally, compute a t-test to compare the T-scores based on gender. Summarize these analyses in an APA Style table. Then, explain insights you gained from your analyses about the impact and interpretation of transformed scores.

  • Essay final

    This assignment is a cause-and-effect essay about social media addiction. It must be at least 600 words long and contain exactly five paragraphs: one introduction, three body paragraphs, and one conclusion.

    In the introduction, the topic is presented, and at the end of the paragraph, the thesis statement is written. The thesis must include three causes of social media addiction, and it must be the same one used in the outline and the annotated bibliography, which were adjusted to match this topic. These three causes will be developed in the three body paragraphs.

    Each of the three body paragraphs must explain a different cause (for example: excessive screen time, lack of parental supervision, and the need for social validation) and must include at least one in-text citation from academic sources such as ProQuest or Google Scholar.

    The essay must follow APA 7 format (Times New Roman, 12-point font, double spacing) and use headings: a centered bold title (Level 1) for the main topic and bold, left-aligned subtitles (Level 2) for each cause.

    At the end, a separate References page must be included with at least three academic sources, the same ones used in the Annotated Bibliography.

    Lists, tables, graphs, and copying text generated by artificial intelligence are not allowed. The paper must be uploaded as a file using the paperclip icon, not as a link. If the topic is changed, citations are missing, or APA format is not followed, many points will be lost or the student may receive a zero.
