Bandura (1997) stated that a person's belief about his or her ability to perform a specific task is one of the most powerful predictors of actually performing well on that task. In fact, Hattie (2009) found that a student's self-report of grades (one way to measure self-efficacy) was more than twice as powerful a predictor of student achievement as actual past performance (d=1.44; d=.67, respectively).

Distinguish the differences between self-efficacy and different measures of self-esteem (such as general self-esteem, academic, physical, or social self-esteem). Assess two classroom or professional practice situations that illustrate the concepts of self-efficacy and self-esteem and indicate what strategies might be used to enhance a weakness or capitalize on a strength.

How would you teach self-efficacy for a specific task to a student whose perceived self-efficacy was low?

Dr. M is doing a secret study to see how much anxiety affects performance in a statistics class. He treats two sections of statistics students exactly the same except that one section is taught progressive relaxation skills. It is Dr. M’s hypothesis that these skills will reduce anxiety and thus improve academic performance as measured by the students’ final grades in the course.

What is Dr. M’s independent variable?

What is Dr. M’s null hypothesis?

What is Dr. M’s experimental design?

What type of hypothesis is Dr. M using?

What is an example of a demand characteristic that could pop up in Dr. M’s experiment?

What is an example of a possible experimenter bias that could pop up in Dr. M’s experiment?

How many factors are there in Dr. M’s experiment?

How many levels are there in Dr. M’s experiment?

A wealthy billionaire recently retired since his travel business was adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. He wants to start a mutual fund focusing on equities. He has hired two fund managers. One of them is his son who is a graduate of the University of Adelaide and believes in market efficiency. You are the second fund manager. You are skeptical about market efficiency having read a number of academic and practitioner articles on the topic. Since your boss is not a finance person, you need to convince him regarding the investment strategies that you will use in conjunction with your colleague

In the interest of equity, your boss is thinking of allocating equal amount of the funds undermanagement to you and your colleague. Is this the correct approach? Argue your case – equal or not using concepts learned in the course. What methodology should you use to come-up with the best allocation scheme?

The choice of the measurement model to be used in Financial Statements has always been particularly complex and controversial within the academic community, standard setters and practice. In a recent speech, the Chairman of IASB, emphasized: ‘[…] I was struck by the multitude of measurement techniques that both IFRSs and US GAAP prescribe, from historic cost, through value-in-use, to fair value and many shades in between. In all, our standards employ about 20 variants based on historic cost or current value.’ Hans Hoogervost, Chairman IASB (20 June 2012). It is expected that neither fair value nor historical cost are likely to be both wholly relevant and reliable and that there is often a trade-off between the two. In practice, which measurement method, historical cost or fair value would provide the ‘best’ accounting information?

argues in support of reliability (faithful representation) and historical cost measurement method.

Compare and contrast the tax rules and treatment applicable to corporations and partnerships. Indicate the major way in which the tax treatment affects the shareholders or partners. Explain at least two (2) reasons why a business owner might opt to become a partnership over a corporation. Provide support for your rationale. Imagine that you are a consultant and make the recommendation that the most advantageous business structure is a C-corporation. Justify why you would recommend a Corporation over a Partnership. Indicate tax rules that influenced your decision. Analyze what a business owner must consider when deciding what type of entity is best for the goals and vision of the business. Provide at least two (2) examples of research the owner must perform to ensure the proper election is made. Provide support for your rationale. Use at least two (2) quality academic resources in this assignment.

We have provided a list of three topics below.  Select one that is of interest to you.  For that topic, imagine that you are developing a CIHR Project Grant.  Part of that grant will be to create a thorough and convincing knowledge translation (KT) plan for your study and its findings.  In 400 words or less (that is the maximum space you will have on this grant application), please outline the essential elements of your KT plan as would be included in your grant.

Topic 1.  A randomized trial to investigate a new antiemetic therapy (vs. standard care) for use in the treatment of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy

Topic 2.  A study of gender identity, emotional wellbeing, and academic achievement in Ontario high school students

Topic 3.  A study of occupational of safety conditions on fruit and vegetable farms in the Niagara region and the health of migrant workers

1. The existing Conceptual Framework has several notable omissions. It does not include an explicit reference to substance over form nor does it define derecognition or when derecognition should occur. The International Accounting Standards Board has also removed prudence from its framework and has attracted criticism from the academic and practitioner communities for doing so. However, the Exposure Draft on the Conceptual Framework attempts to explain the roles of prudence and substance over form in financial reporting whilst putting forward proposals to clarify the aims of the accounting requirements for derecognition.

Required:

(i) Discuss the features of the concept of prudence and the arguments for and against its re-introduction into the Conceptual Framework.

(ii) Explain why it is important for there to be guidance in the Conceptual Framework on the role of substance over form, and the principles relating to derecognition set out in the Exposure Draft on the Conceptual Framework.

Initial Post:

Herbert Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt had very different attitudes about government and approaches to deal with the Great Depression. Describe each president's approach to the economic crisis, with examples from the speeches of President Hoover versus President Roosevelt.

Analyze the two approaches and consider:

• What was the long term impact of each President's actions?
• How did these different approaches change what Americans felt the government should be doing for them?

Your initial post should:

• Be 300-400 words in length.
• Describe each President's approach and consider the impact.
• Give at least one example from each President's speech.
• Use formal academic language, including MLA format citations- both parenthetical citations in your post, and full citations at the end. Please refer to the class Writing Guidelines and/or the MLA citation resources for a refresher.
