ASHFORD HHS 460 Week 1 DQ 1 Research
Presentation For more course tutorials
visit www.tutorialrank.com Research
Presentation. Assume you are asked to present a
half hour talk about research in human services.
Since this could cover a vast number of concepts,
you decide to illustrate a basic research process
(steps) and provide a real-world example taken
from your text. One example is Research in
Practice 10.2 (pp. 273) and the second example
is Research in Practice 9.2 (pp. 246).
Explanations as to the rational for using a
scientific research method compared to just
providing a theoretical explanation would make
the presentation more valid. In the discussion
address the notion that in so many health and
human services programs, finding important
information is tied to the need for information
to solve problems. Respond to at least two of
your classmates postings.

ASHFORD HHS 460 Week 1 DQ 2 Intake Process For
more course tutorials visit www.tutorialrank.com I
ntake Process. Often when providing services,
basic intake information is required. The
researcher could, at the end of a given time
period, examine these intake papers and, based on
some need, compute descriptive statistics using
information provided by the clients /
participants. Information such as income, family
make up, and education levels could be used to
compute mean values. However, you may be asked to
configure a study that can be called
experimental. In this discussion forum you are
asked to compare these two formats and identify
in what ways they differ. In order to determine
definitions of descriptive research, you will
need to access the MREL Reference Appendix A.

Resources For more course tutorials

The ability to locate and utilize information
relative to Health and Human Services is an
important component of many health and human

Research Venues. Research can be divided into
three broad areas descriptive, qualitative, and
quantitative. Some researchers subsume
descriptive research (archival) as quantitative.
However, for this discussion, we are considering
it a separate kind, as descriptive research can
fall into either area qualitative or
quantitative. Your assignment for this discussion
is to prepare a 250-300 word post differentiating
qualitative, quantitative, and analysis of
availability data. Identify those attributes that
form the essence of these three research venues.
Respond to at least two of your classmates
postings.

ASHFORD HHS 460 Week 3 DQ 1 Canadian National
Health Plan For more course tutorials
visit www.tutorialrank.com Canadian National
Health Plan. Research can vary from highly
sophisticated experimental studies to less
rigorous short term investigations. Each research
approach has advantages and disadvantages. Among
the different paradigms you could use, two of the
more common are the positivist approach and the
interpretive approach (consult pages 39-40 in
the text). If you were interested in determining
if the Canadian National Health Plan was better
(better in terms of care, coverage, and choice of
doctors) then the current United States Health
Coverage Plan (Obama sponsored), which approach
would you choose to make this determination?
Provide a justification to your answer.

esearch Formats. The research format found in
scholarly journal articles has purpose and
direction. Chapters 2 and 4 in the text provide
information as to the logic and makeup of a
research effort. Parallel to the structure of the
research format is the notion of the scientific
method as a basic approach to solving problems.
Your task is to analyze these two venues,
identifying in what ways they complement each
other, and how each venue is related to the
other. You may want to access outside references
regarding the concepts of research format and the
scientific method. Respond to at least two of
your classmates postings.

Careers in HHS. The great variety of careers and
occupations within the field of HHS is growing
every year. A review of some of the data bases in
the text will provide opportunities to search and
identify many occupational areas within different
governmental departments and programs. Searching,
for example, the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services website will result in finding
many careers such as social workers, preschool
programs, criminal justice, counseling,
gerontology, and drug and alcohol treatment.
After selecting two different websites related to
HHS, identify two career areas in the HHS field
and do the following

Practice For more course tutorials
visit www.tutorialrank.com Research in
Practice. Qualitative research in the past 30
years has increasingly been viewed as making an
important contribution to research and
evaluation. For this discussion, you are asked to
read two Research in Practice articles in the
text. Evaluate and synthesize the contribution
qualitative researched played with regard to
Research in Practice (5.1, pp. 110) and Research
in Practice (12.2, p 338). Your work should
clearly identify the importance of using
qualitative methods and explain in what ways
these methods helped the studies. Respond to two
of your classmates postings

ASHFORD HHS 460 Week 5 DQ 1 Ethics in
Research For more course tutorials
visit www.tutorialrank.com Ethics in Research.
Ethics plays an important role in conducting of
research. While the individual researcher is
responsible for his/her ethical practice, any
research sponsored by an organization,
university, or government program has a review
process guided by a code of ethics. Besides the
code of ethics, the Institutional Review Board
(IRB) plays an important role in monitoring
research. Your task in this discussion is to
examine the origins of the IRB and analyze how
the Review Board guides or monitors research. In
your 250-300 word post answer the following three
questions

Adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) have received a
great deal of bad press due to the tremendous
number of foreclosures resulting from families
who could not afford the loan payments once the
interest rates increased. Do you believe this
loan option was used appropriately in recent
years? Why or why not? Under what circumstances
does the use of ARMs make sense? Please explain.
