Conduct a database search for a quasi-experimental study that pertains to professions in the healthcare or business field. > Examine the study and describe how the study is similar to an experimental study. >What confounds, if any, did you identify? >Describe any threats to internal or external validity you identified. >Discuss whether pre-experimental designs were part of the overall research design. Assuming that the study consisted of measures that were both reliable and valid, what are some implications of this research for individuals in healthcare and/or business?

what you need to focus on is writing a case study in which you examine why the ozone layer is affected by air pollution.. this is the checklist that you need to apply to paper 1. Do you have a project statement and argument included in a “set up” or introductory section? Does the project tell us what you are going to do in the paper, and perhaps, why? 2. Does the project line up with the assignment? This is a key component 3. Have you “mapped” your paper? Does it move in a logical order to make an argument? 4. Are there strong framing sentences that move the paper and “frame” each section or paragraph? 5. Are your quotations in “sandwiches”? Don’t forget to interpret what the quoted writers have said. The bottom bun on the sandwich is very important, but also don’t forget to set up each Q before you dive into it. 6. Are your quotations formatted correctly? See Purdue OWL for help on MLA quotations. 7. Don’t just put your experts in citation parentheses. Use your best experts to speak in your paper. 8. Make sure in-text citation is {Author page). No dates! No “pg.” No “pp.” No bold! If you mention the author in the text near that cited material, you don’t need the parenthetical except for page numbers. 9. Make sure your Works Cited is correct. Use a page break to get it to the top of its own page.

Your job is to critique/challenge these research journal articles. Critique the scientific evidence/results, there is an attached “cheat sheet” in which you can refer to on what to critique. The terms (in cheat sheet) may seem confusing to someone without a science background otherwise should be easy to understand if you search the meaning of those scientific terms; variables, external validity etc. These are the links provided to the journal articles you have to critique. (You don’t need to critique all of them, as long as you have about 275 words then should be fine.) – https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs00266-015-0592-7 – https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00266-016-0715-9 – https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0091217417703287 – https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S174868151830250X – https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1748681517304709 – https://europepmc.org/article/pmc/pmc7209878

Start by reading the article denoted “state openings” in the Coronavirus folder in Files. This will provide some information on the topic, especially different states’ policies. There should be some discussion of this or similar information early in your paper. 2. Access the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Dashboard through this link https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/ (Links to an external site.) You will find a button titled: Timeline of COVID-19 policies, cases, and, deaths in your state. This provides access to the type of interactive graphs we viewed in class. Pick any two states to conduct analysis. Some are more interesting than others. You may also, for extra credit, consider additional states. Observe the data and see what relationships might exist, or not, between opening policy and infection rates. Understand that nothing is conclusive here but you can certainly draw some initial observations. In this section, you will discuss this analysis. 3. The data provided is very basic and there may be alternative explanations of infection rates. Discuss these possibilities. You may use outside sources but they are not required. If you do use any you must cite them. 4. Discuss opening/closing policy in terms of the concepts in today’s lecture and Chapters 1 and 2. Scarcity, opportunity costs, trade-offs, incentives, etc. 5. Draw some conclusions from all the information you considered in your paper on what you think policies should be. THERE ARE NO RIGHT OR WRONG ANSWERS. There is a wide range of answers. For example, you may feel strongly one way or another. Or you might decide there is not yet enough research to inform policy. You are graded on creative thinking and linking this final normative analysis to the positive analysis that comprised the majority of your paper—not on your opinions. Outside sources are not required but you are encouraged to use them. If you use a source you must cite it. Also, paraphrase, don’t directly quote. NO media! The good writing style is stressed. Divide your paper into logical, separate sections The numbers above may suggest a section structure but use whatever you think is best. Delineate sections with subheadings. Use proper paragraph structure and watch spelling and grammar. I grade on quality not quantity. Normally I might suggest a length. I am not going here. I want to see your creativity, interest, and knowledge. I want this exercise to be fun and stimulating.
