Pay-for-Performance Link. Discuss how to strengthen the pay-for-performance link.

A. Powerful incentives can cause undesired behaviors. Suggest ways to solve this problem, using something you know a great deal about – academic performance.

B. How would you design a pay-performance system that uses powerful incentives to motivate behavior, yet keep the behavior from veering into the unethical? (Hint: You want to keep the powerful incentive effect of pay. So don’t recommend eliminating incentive pay or reducing the size of the incentive component.) What’s left?

C. How do you ensure ethical behavior?

For the following health issues, please identify and briefly describe the most appropriate study design that you have learned about in this course to study the issue. Provide a clear and accurate justification for each choice of study design (suggested length for each response, 3-4 sentences maximum). 1) Breast cancer and lifetime use of oral contraceptives 2) Health effects related to a high fat diet. 3) Vitamin D intake and risks for multiple sclerosis 4) The impacts of poverty among refugee children on academic outcomes 5) Health promotion educational campaign aimed at cessation from vaping in teenagers

4) Educators introduce a new math curriculum and measure 45 students' scores before and at the end of the academic year using an exam widely believed to accurately measure students' understanding. The average score at the start the year was 65%, and after was 75%.

a) In words, what are the null and alternative hypothesis tests that the educators would most likely be interested in testing?
b) What does a hypothesis test tell us that we can't learn from simply noting that students improved 10 percentage points?
c) Suppose the p-value from this hypothesis test was 0.54. Explain how to interpret this value in this context.

Examine the healthcare offerings of your local marketplace and work to identify red oceans and potential blue oceans. This will require achieving a deep understanding of red and blue oceans, coupled with an intensive understanding of the selected market. Research beyond that supplied by your readings, notably including field research, will be most helpful in this endeavor.

This assignment must be between 1500 and 1800 words, include 4-10 references (3 being from scholarly academic journals),APA style only. Supply the following sections, exactly as they appear below, placing each heading in bold text:
Introduction
Red Oceans
Blue Oceans
Conclusions
References

Consider your dissertation research interests. Identify one categorical/nominal scale IV with more than 2 categories, and three DVs that are measured on continuous scales. Think of DV measures that probably are moderately correlated with each other because they are measuring different components of the same or similar concepts (e.g., three different measures of academic performance). What information would a one-way MANOVA provide you? What more would you want to know if you get significant results in the MANOVA? Why would this be significant to your research? Please type about a 200 word response and use IQ as as the topic. Thanks

Sandra and Michael Wilson are the parents of Rory who just turned 5 years old (coincidentally on the same date that primary, secondary and university academic years commence). They own a four-bedroom home in Edinburgh. Sandra is a partner in a local dental practice and Michael is a stay at home dad. Sandra earns £100,000 a year (after tax).

Now that Rory is starting primary school, thoughts have turned to saving for his education. Rory is enrolled to attend a state (i.e. non fee-paying) primary school. The Wilsons plan to send Rory to a private secondary school (when he turns 11). The school is prestigious and its fees are set accordingly. Currently tuition is £20,000 per school year and are projected to rise at the rate of inflation. Currently around 2% per annum.

The Wilsons hope that Rory will subsequently attend their alma mater, Oxford University when he turns 18. Most undergraduate courses at Oxford have a four academic year duration. Undergraduate fees at Oxford are currently £9250 per annum and are projected to rise faster than inflation, at a rate of 4% per annum. In addition, as Rory would be living away from home if he attended Oxford, his parents envisage that his living costs (primarily student accommodation and food) would amount to £10,000 per annum (expressed in today’s prices). These living costs are projected to increase at the rate of inflation, 2% per annum.

Using a discount rate of 7%, what is the present value of the combined projected spend on Rory’s private school fees, university tuition and living costs? (Assume that all fees and living costs are incurred at the beginning of each academic year e.g. Rory’s first school fee invoice will arrive in exactly 6 years which coincides with his first day at secondary school when he turns 11).

The Wilsons plan to fund the expenditure on private school fees from Sandra’s income. They would however like to start investing today in a fund that would be used to pay Rory’s university fees and living costs. They would like to make an equal annual payment into that fund every year (starting in one years’ time) with a view to accumulating £120,000 by Rory’s 18th birthday. This £120,000 would then be drawn down over Rory’s time at Oxford to meet expenses as they come due.

How much money would they have to deposit into the fund every year (with the first payment one year from now) to meet that target assuming a conservative fund return estimate of 3% a year. Will the accumulated amount be enough to cover the joint fees and living costs during Rory’s time at Oxford?
