Topic:  Plato argues there is a difference between sense-perception and knowledge.  He illustrates this difference in numerous places.  For instance, he discusses the inner workings of the cave (discussed in chapter 2 of Socrates to Sartre and chapter 3 of Demystified ), as well as the division of various levels of knowledge in his divided line (see chapter 3 in Socrates to Sartre ). 

 

This distinction should seem strange, however.  Most of us probably think that we know the world through our senses; we merely open our eyes or touch an object in front of us to confirm or deny what is real and what is not.  In line with this, people often say that ‘Seeing is believing’ and ‘Show me the money!’, two adages which suggest that unless we’re given direct sensory evidence for a belief we ought to disbelieve (or at least withhold judgement about) it. 

 

Drawing on your reading from the first week, write a paper in which you do the following:

Explain in your own words why Plato thinks sense-perception is not true knowledge, what Plato thinks true knowledge consists of, and whether you agree with his position or not.  (Whether you accept Plato’s claims or not, you should provide good reasons to support your belief.)  In doing so, make sure to relate your explanation to Plato’s discussion of these issues in the cave allegory and the divided line.

Once a researcher has chosen a topic to study, the first steps of the scientific method are to formulate a research question and hypothesis. For example, if a researcher wants to study the effect of exercise on grades, s/he might formulate a question of “is regular exercise associated with better academic performance?” and a hypothesis of “students who regularly exercise have better academic performance.” How s/he defines exercise and grades can be very important. For example, what is meant by regular? Is it exercising once a week every week or exercising 5 days a week most weeks? What is defined as exercise? Does vacuuming count? Lastly, how is academic performance defined and measured? Is it GPA or classes passed or school attendance? How the variables are defined and measure can greatly impact the study results and outcome.

Choose a topic of interest (you can use the same topic you used for the week 1 discussion if you want, but do not have to). With this topic,Formulate a research question and hypothesisOperationally define the variables you will use in this studyDiscuss what scales of measurement you would want to use to measure these variablesDiscuss how you would assess the reliability and validity of your study and your study measurements.

Assessment and Diagnosis

Assessment and diagnosis are the first, and most critical, parts of substance use disorder treatment. Without an accurate assessment, the client may not benefit from the treatment options selected.

Review the following scenario and address the questions that follow:Julia got into a car accident at the end of her senior year of high school, which resulted in a broken leg and an injured knee, both of which needed surgery to repair. During her recovery, she was in a lot of pain, so her doctor prescribed OxyContin.

After several weeks, the prescribed dose of OxyContin was no longer sufficient to completely alleviate Julia’s pain. So, she decided to take more than the prescribed dosage. This not only alleviated Julia’s pain, but it also gave her a feeling of euphoria, which she enjoyed. When Julia ran out of OxyContin and was unable to take it, she experienced a great deal of pain, even in areas of her body that were not affected by the car accident. She also found herself more anxious and agitated on days when she could not take OxyContin than on days when she did take it.

Based on your analysis of the scenario and module readings, respond to the following:Which assessment tool(s) would you use to help evaluate and diagnose Julia’s substance use? Explain why you made your choice.Based on the current DSM diagnostic criteria, does Julia’s behavior fit into a substance use disorder? Explain the rationale for your diagnosis.

Write your initial response in 300–400 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

By Saturday, March 7, 2015, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area.

Mark Jones, a Production Manager, has been transferred from the manufacturing plant in his hometown of Chicago to his company’s overseas manufacturing plant in Osaka, Japan.

You are the company’s I-O psychologist. Using Hofstede’s Five Basic Elements of Culture Distinction, write an e-mail message to the Vice President (VP) of Production discussing at least three cultural differences that Mark will experience in managing front-line plant workers in Japan in contrast to in the United States. Also address how cultural differences may play a role in individual differences Mark will experience. 

Your e-mail message should also include at least three recommendations on how managers can take up overseas tasks with minimum transition problems. State the rationale for your recommendations.

Because the VP of Production is a busy individual, restrict your e-mail message to one to two pages. Type the e-mail message in Microsoft Word
