Logistic Regression To Evaluate The Marketability Of Pepper Cultivars

/in /by

The practice of quantitative research not only involves statistical calculations and formulas but also involves the understanding of statistical techniques related to real-world applications. You might not become a quantitative researcher nor use statistical methods in your profession but as a consumer, citizen, and scholar-practitioner, it will be important for you to become a critical consumer of research, which will empower you to read, interpret, and evaluate the strength of claims made in scholarly material and daily news.

For this Assignment, you will critically evaluate a scholarly article related to logistic regression.

To prepare

  • Review the Article Critique Assignment Guide in the Walden Library, listed in the Week 2 Learning Resources.
  • Search the Walden Library for a quantitative article that applies binary logistic regression.

Write a 2- to 3-page critique of the research you found in the Walden Library that includes responses to the following prompts:

  • Why did the authors select binary logistic regression in the research?
  • Do you think this test was the most appropriate choice? Why or why not?
  • Did the authors display the results in a figure or table?
  • Does the results table stand alone? In other words, are you able to interpret the study from it? Why or why not?

Resources

Warner, R. M. (2013). Applied statistics: From bivariate through multivariate techniques (2nd ed.). Thousand Oaks, CA: SAGE Publications.

  • Chapter 23, “Binary Logistic Regression” (pp. 1007–1050)

    This chapter presents several simple examples of binary logistic regression. It also explains why researchers need to include probabilities along with odds when they report results.

You have met with the director of Sales and Marketing and have a general sense of what marketing will be needed to effectively launch the upgraded product. There will be a series of newsletters sent to the global customer base announcing the upgraded product. There will also be advertisements in the “usual” publications that will highlight the new features. The marketing team will attend an annual trade show and feature the upgraded product. Other marketing activities, such as updated collateral and press releases, are yet to be determined.

You have a follow-up meeting with the director next week. At that time, you will review a detailed write-up of the scope that describes what is included, as well as what is excluded.

Describe each of the key deliverables in detail. Be sure to include what is included in the scope of the deliverable as well as what is not included in the scope. Describe how you and the director will determine whether or not other marketing activities will be brought into the scope of the project. Finally, describe how you will gain consensus from the director on the scope.

Select a Topic and Record the Topic in Your Posting

/in /by

This Discussion will give you the opportunity to calculate or identify the three measures of central tendency. You will be asked to select an appropriate real life situation in which one measure would be more appropriate than the other two measures of center. Select a topic of interest to you and record the topic in your posting, for example: “What is the average number of hours people watch TV every week?”Make sure the question you ask will be answered with a number, rather than answers with words.Write a hypothesis of what you expect your research to reveal. Example: Adults 21 years and over watch an average of 2.5 hours of TV per day.Sample at least fifteen people and record their data in a simple table or chart; study the examples from Section 12-3.You can gather your data at work, on the phone, or via some other method. This is your “Sampling Design.” Which of the four sampling techniques best describes your design?Explain in moderate detail the method you used to gather your data. In statistics this venture is called the “Methodology.”Make sure you break your sample into classes or groups, such as males/females, or ages, or time of day, etc.Calculate the mean, median, and mode for your data as a whole. Now calculate the mean, median, and mode of each of your classes or groups. Indicate which measure of central tendency best describes your data andwhy. Then compare your results for each class or group, and point out any interesting results or unusual outcomes between the classes or groups. This is called a “comparative analysis” – using our results to explain interesting outcomes or differences (i.e., between men and women). Comment on at least two of your classmates’ postings. Make sure you comment on their hypothesis (topic), their design, and whether you agree or do not agree with their best measure of central tendency.Your initial post should be at least 150 words in length.

Shared Practice

/in /by

Shared Practice: Reflect on your own professional experiences and search reputable news sources on the internet to find an example in the news where managers and employees at a company fell short of doing the “right thing.” Consider the circumstances that surrounded the example and whether it makes the person or organization ‘bad’?

With these thoughts in mind:

Prepare a response to the following:

  • Describe a case you have experienced or a story within the last three years that you have found through a reputable news source, where the manager(s) of a company did not act ethically or align their conduct with laws and regulations. Discuss the consequences that occurred, or might occur, as a result.

Hint: Your answer should address who was affected and what happened to the reputation of the organization or the individual(s) involved in the situation.

  • Explain actions would you take if you knew management at your organization was not aligning its actions to the valued and policies of the organization, or worse, to the law. Discuss how would you proceed, and the concerns might you have.

Hint: In your answer, be sure to consider seriously the obstacles you might confront. Your actions might put friends and colleagues in legal trouble, your own job might be at risk, and “whistle-blowers” often face severe backlash. Your answer should account for these challenges.

2.

Think about your own professional experiences to identify the management practices that contribute to sustainable organizational culture. Also, reflect on the management practices you have observed or employed that create and sustain a positive and profitable work environment as you prepare for the discussion post below.

With these thoughts in mind:

Prepare an explanation of the direct and indirect contributions managers make to create a sustainable organizational culture. In your explanation, select and describe three management practices—from the resources or your professional experience—that you consider to be essential for contributing to a sustainable organizational culture.

Hint: Your answer needs to take into account that creating a sustainable organization culture is not an easy task—the direct and indirect contributions may require the managers make difficult choices that impact employees in different ways.

What is Most Significant for Promoting Social Justice?

/in /by

Interesting post.  Why do you think this is the most significant? i

There is no single right answer to this question.  Here’s my take on which of these cases were most significant for promoting social justice in our present day.  I list the in order of significance (in my opinion).

 1)  Texas v. Johnson (1989)

I know that this might surprise people.  I did not pick this case because of flag burning.  I picked it because it reinforced the 1st Amendment right of the people to protest against the government and to do so in non-conventional ways.  Even if it is using symbols rather normal speech and even if most people find it offensive. 

It was the 1st Amendment right of free speech that protected civil rights protestors (certainly one of the most important social justice movements of our time) and anti-Viet Nam war protestors.  It is the right that will continue to protect those crying out for social justice in the future even if the message and the means are painful for some to hear

2) Gideon v. Wainwright (1963)

Requiring the state to provide an attorney to anyone charged with a felony “evened the playing field” for those charged with serious crimes.  None of the rights in the Bill of Rights would be worth much without having an attorney to ensure they are protected.

3) Miranda v. Arizona (1966)

Requiring all people in custodial interrogation to be notified of their rights helped to ensure defendants understood the protections afforded by the Constitution and that the state would pay for them to have an attorney to protect them.  Built upon the breakthrough of Gideon.

4) Mapp v Ohio (1961)

Eliminated widespread abuse of the 4th Amendment by police.  Gave police an incentive to observe 4th Amendment requirements.  Not fully realized until after Gideon and Miranda as those without a lawyer might not know that they could challenge an illegal search.

5) Terry v. Ohio (1968)

Terry did not promote social justice so much as it validated a law enforcement tool.  The contribution to social justice was that it spelled out the criteria for “stop and frisk” and made clear that police must be able to articulate the circumstances that gave them reasonable suspicion.
