Using the paragraph below, how could i rework it making the statement a proper introduction and literature review? I must include participants, instruments, procedure, and ethical issues and how to solve them. I thought i had included some of those things, but according to my grade i did not include any.
According to the five-factor model, Introversion and Extraversion form two extremes of the first
factor. This factor is scaled based on the person’s sociability, aggressiveness and emotional
expression. Depending on these measures, an introverted individual might be classified because they tend to lean more towards being quiet,
reserved and withdrawn. Similarly, an extroverted individual would lean towards being outgoing,
sociable and seeking adventure. Even in the MBTI scale, introversion and extraversion are the
first of the four markers that might determine an individual’s personality. Although it might seem like a good idea to predict the success of a marriage
based on an individual’s level of sociability and their comfort level with outdoor activities, it is
essential to remember that these markers are not an “all” or “nothing” situation. These are simply scales where an individual might have different
levels of sociability. For instance, one might find an extroverted individual who likes a good house party but hates the crowds at a concert. Also, there might be introverted individuals who
enjoy spending time with their close-knit friends but dislike spending time with people that they do not share a comfort level with. Here in lies the null hypothesis. Since these measures are
not absolute, the prediction based on these measures cannot be “either-or,” where a couple either gets divorced or stays together. Just like the mood to be social is intermittent, depending
on the mood, the day and other factors, the level of marital bliss is just as irregular. However, the synergetic effect between sociability and marital bliss would also depend on whether both
the members are of the same personality type. The best number of participants would be at least 15 couples of different sexual orientations but in equal amount. For instance, 5 straight
couples, 5 homosexual male couples, 5 homosexual female couples with each having different sociability level. The proper hypothesis would be to judge whether couples with the same
sociability marker have more marital bliss or couples with opposing sociability markers. I believe this covers the introduction as well as the literature review.

SCENARIO:
Eva Melon, the CEO and majority shareholder of OuterSpace Corp. (OSC) (incorporated in Delaware) founded the company to develop the technology needed to make commercial space flights available to the average citizen. She believed that space could be made available for colonization and that the energy and resources needed to sustain life in outer space could be harvested from other planets, such as Mars. Eva spent most of her substantial fortune investing in renewable energy and philanthropic endeavors aimed at making life more comfortable through technological breakthroughs. Because Eva’s mother was from the United States and Eva’s father was from France, she held citizenship in both countries. She frequently traveled back and forth operating OSC from her homes in both countries.
Eva’s most recent project for OSC involved the design and construction of a space vehicle. While Eva had initially planned on manufacturing the vehicle in the United States, she projected that she could save approximately $10 million dollars by manufacturing the vehicle in China. However, she wanted to launch the vehicle from a spaceport either in Russia or the United States. Several test flights were slated on the project’s schedule for the years 2020 and 2021 which included a standard flight into low earth orbit, a docking with the international space station, and finally, a trip to Mars for natural resource sample collection. If successful in all the test flights, OSC planned on launching short commercial trips to space for individuals in 2023 and “colonization” flights to Mars some time thereafter.
To help secure funding for the research and development of the project, OSC also developed and produced solar panels for sale to the public, which were very similar to the ones that they would be using on their space vehicles for energy while in space. The panels were highly successful not only because of their technological brilliance, but also thanks to the public’s fascination with Eva, who was portrayed in the media as the “architect of the future.” OSC’s solar panels dominated the solar panel market, effectively shutting down other solar panel companies both domestically and abroad. Upset by the shift in the market, a competing foreign company, SolarX, filed a suit against OSC in federal court for violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act.
Undeterred, OSC entered into agreement with a Chinese company to begin the manufacture of the space vehicle. However, upon learning of the agreement, the United States government immediately notified OSC that they were in violation of the U.S. Department of State’s International Traffic in Arms Regulation laws and that OSC must cease all transfer of technology and data related to the manufacturing of the vehicle. Concurrently, the Chinese government, in learning of the agreement and realizing the benefit of the technology to its national government, seized control of the manufacturing facility. OSC immediately filed suit in the United States against the manufacturing facility and Chinese government. It also brought an injunction against the U.S. government to prevent the enforcement of any federal regulation prohibiting OSC from using the Chinese company to manufacture space vehicles.
Knowing how long the lawsuits would take and wanting to stay on schedule, OSC opened a manufacturing facility in France to continue the construction of the space vehicle through a wholly-owned subsidiary of OSC (rather than an outside company).
The publicity surrounding OSC’s struggle to get its vehicle built and operational was overwhelmingly in support of OSC. As a result, OSC hinted at solidifying its decision to launch the vehicle from the United States, at a spaceport which it would build in Texas, for use in all its testing operations.
ETHICS QUESTION:
1. In 5-10 sentences, answer the following question. Assume OSC grants an exclusive interview to a 24-hour news channel about the economic status of the company hours after the seizure of the manufacturing facility in China. Chen Li is the marketing director for OSC and is assigned to the interview. Li does not know if the news station yet knows about the seizure, but knows he will be asked about the financial state of the company. He confirms that the confiscation has actually cost the company millions, which will impact the company's finances significantly but has been told by Eva "not to spook investors because we will recover." When asked by the interviewer, "Where is the company financially today, and what can we expect in terms of company growth over the next year?" Li responds, "OSC's management is as strong as ever and we expect revenues to climb in the future." Li never mentions the losses incurred by the seizure. Is this an ethical answer and should Li have disclosed the company's losses? Is corporate marketing "spin" an ethical business practice?

According to the 2017-2018 U.S. Pet Ownership & Demographics Sourcebook, 38.4% of US households own a dog. Ms Ferguson believes the percent of households who own a dog has changed since 2018, so she polls 90 students and finds that 39 students own a dog. Test Ms. Ferguson’s claim at the α = 0.05 significance level. Regardless of which method you use, sketch a graph showing the critical region and where the test statistic falls - inside or outside the critical region.

PLEASE EXPLAIN ANSWER. USING JAVA via jGRASP
a. Create a class named Student that has fields for an ID number, number of credit hours earned, and number of points earned. (For example, many schools compute grade point averages based on a scale of 4, so a three-credit-hour class in which a student earns an A is worth 12 points.) Include methods to assign values to all fields. A Student also has a field for grade point average. Include a method to compute the grade point average field by dividing points by credit hours earned. Write methods to display the values in each Student field. Save this class as Student.java.
b. Write a class named ShowStudent that instantiates a Student object from the class you created and assign values to its fields. Compute the Student grade point average, and then display all the values associated with the Student. Save the application as ShowStudent.java.
c. Create a constructor for the Student class you created. The constructor should initialize each Student’s ID number to 9999, his or her points earned to 12, and credit hours to 3 (resulting in a grade point average of 4.0). Write a program that demonstrates that the constructor works by instantiating an object and displaying the initial values. Save the application as ShowStudent2.java
