Question 4: In 400 words choose three ethical principles from the following list and give a detailed discussion about the Case Study below, Autonomy, Justice, Consequentialism, Prima Facie Duties, Mature Minor, Principle of Utility, Mills principle of liberty. Case Study: Benny is 15 years old. He was born with an enlarged, malfunctioning liver and an enlarged spleen. When he was eight years old he had his first liver transplant and for the following five years Benny took a drug called cyclosporin to prevent his body from rejecting the new organ. When the medication no longer worked, doctors performed a second transplant and prescribed an experimental anti-rejection drug that affected his normal activities due to side effects of headaches and irritability. Without this drug, his system would reject the new liver and Benny would ultimately die. Against his doctor’s and parent’s wishes, Benny decreased his dosage and eventually stopped taking the medication altogether. Although Benny's mother initially disagreed with him, she eventually supported his decision. When his doctors discovered this, the hospital filed a petition under Florida's child neglect statute and Benny was removed from his home and taken to the hospital. Benny has continued to refuse the medication and fought off the staff when any treatments or tests are attempted. Should Benny be allowed to refuse his medication? Why or why not?

What does a Lean organization value the most?
1. Job security over service
2. Tools first, then people
3. People first, then tools
Which statement best describes the term Lean?
1. A flavor of the month fad that will likely soon be forgotten
2. A broad cachphrase that describes a holistic and sustainable approach to using less of everything to give you more
3. An improvement approach focused primarily on applying tools to eliminate waste
The logic of Lean includes the following assumptions:
1. You know best what customers need, so you define value. Waste is a natural part of all processes. Pursuing perfection is unrealistic and ultimately unattainable.
2. Your mission is if it ain't broken don't fix it
3. You provide products/services to customers who define value. You create in a process, and waste in a process diminishes value. The perfect process has no waste, so you can maximize customer value by pursuing the perfect process.
When analyzing the value stream, you:
1. Focus only on the flow of information
2. Ensure the authorized colors of sticky notes are use for each process map.
3. Identify all the activities and events that occur to get the product or service to your customer, along with corresponding information flow.
To achieve flow, you must:
1. Conduct a benchmark
2. Reduce variation and eliminate defects, equipment breakdowns, rework and outages.
3. Establish a committee to study the sources of flow blockages.

Eating disorder symptoms among undergraduate varsity athletes, club athletes, independent exercisers, and nonexercisers.
Objective: To examine whether differences in eating disorder symptoms exist between women who are varsity athletes, club athletes, independent exercisers, and nonexercisers and to determine whether sports anxiety moderates any observed between-group effects.
Method: 274 female undergraduates completed the eating disorders inventory and the physical activity and sport anxiety scale and reported their exercise habits.
Results: Women who participated in sports tended to have higher levels of eating disorder symptomatology than those who did not. Higher levels of sports anxiety were predictive of higher levels of bulimic symptoms and drive for thinness. Finally, the interaction of sports anxiety and level of athletic participation significantly predicted body dissatisfaction and bulimic symptoms.
Conclusion: Coaches and clinicians should be aware that athletes experience higher rates of eating disorder symptoms than nonathletes. Moreover, sports anxiety should be considered as a possible target of therapy among athletes.
