a) A poor population of human beings in Egypt lives of a low-calorie vegetarian diet, yet they do not suffer from a lack of proteins or a lack of vitamins.
How do you explain this from a nutritional perspective?
b) a study about a group of 65-70 year old males in Japan, who live off a traditional Japanese diet, rich in fish, found that surprisingly few of these suffer from heart and circulatory disease, when compared to a similar group of Europeans.

INTEGRATIVE CASE: A PROBLEM AT METRO TRANSIT^" Ahmed Das is the Vice President of Human Resources at Metropolitan Transit System, a large and complex rail system that covers both a large city and suburbs in a metropolitan area. The Vice President of Operations, Billy Watson, has called Das to complain about the quality of candidates available to become new Rail Operations Managers. Watson's specific comments were: "How come your training program is not delivering the people we need? What's wrong with the training anyway? You people in HR need to get with it! We're experiencing some retirements and we need quality people to fill these positions." Assume that you are the Organization Development (OD) manager for Metro Transit, and that Mr. Das has called you in to ask for advice. In looking for new Rail Operations Managers, Metro Transit allows all Metro employees to apply when there are openings. As this is one of the better-paid positions at Metro Transit, many employees apply. HR staff first remove individuals from the pool who are recent hires, or who have had attendance or disciplinary problems. HR then narrows the list to not more than 20 candidates by reviewing candidates' work records and annual appraisals, as well as by asking for current evaluations from each candidate's supervisor. The remaining candidates are then interviewed by a panel of three to four interviewers. Typically, one or two interviewers are from HR, one is from the Training Department, and one is a Rail Operations Manager. Because of scheduling conflicts. Rail Operations Managers are not always a part of these panel interviews. Based on the panel ratings, HR then picks eight candidates to attend a week-long Rail Operations Manager training program. The training program covers the procedures and rules used to govern the rail system, and also emphasizes simulated incidents to address service disruption problems. After training, candidates are placed in a Manager pool from which they are called on to temporarily replace a regular Rail Operations Manager who is unavailable due to sickness, vacation, or other reason. The performance of the candidates in these temporary assignments is evaluated, and those whose performance is viewed as acceptable are eventually promoted to be a regular Rail Operations Manager. The content of the training program was designed collaboratively with current Rail Operations Managers, and as recently as two years ago, had been highly praised by Rail Operations Managers. However, only four of the eight candidates who completed the training 1 1 months ago remain. Two candidates were removed from the pool by the Rail Operations Director due to their inability to perform the job, and two had resigned saying that they had not been adequately trained concerning what the job entailed. Questions: Based on what you have learned in this chapter, as well as in Chapter 13, what advice would you give to Mr. Das? That is, from an organization development (OD) or perspective, what approach would you take to solve this problem?

5. [2 marks] Can we do better than this? Recall that the human player is at some fixed location (px, py). Your task is to work out how you would sort the array A so that those enemy AIs that need to be marked can be identified in log(N) time.Specifically, complete the following comparison function that would be used while sorting the array A. Here, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points from the array A. The function should return true if it considers the first point to be less than or equal to the second, and should return false otherwise. Your function can use the player’s coordinate (px, py) as global variables, i.e. you are allowed to refer to px and py in your function。 Function LessOrEqualTo((x1, y1),(x2, y2))

We all know there are different classifications of joints within the human body (e.g. ball and socket, hinge, pivot, fibrous, etc.). Why the variety? What if the joints between skull bones had more flexibility? It could be beneficial in the event of brain bleeds/swelling, right? Please give me an example or two of a specific joint, name its classification, and explain the current function and why that joint type is a good or poor fit for that body part/location/function/movement. Then imagine a different joint type in its place that would improve, or change, the current function/movement. You may substitute with a known joint type, invent your own joint type, or create a hybrid; it’s up to you.

The bystander effect captures a shadowy side of human nature. It may have contributed to atrocities such as the Holocaust and witch hunts. It may have its roots in childhood with those who watch bullying without intervening. Discuss the bystander effect utilizing the links below or recent news stories. Include in your discussion: One factor that might increase the chances of helping another One factor that might decrease the likelihood that a person in need will receive help. Note that it was the bystander intervention that saved the life of the 13 year old girl in the news link below. Likewise, recently in the Newark bus crash, bystanders attempted to rescue victims. Likewise helping behavior was noted in the mall when a woman on crutches dropped her papers.

Perspectives of Psychology Goal of assignment: identify and understand the different perspectives in understanding human behavior.
Case: Patient grew up with parents who didn’t divorce but fought a lot. Patient is having trouble in a relationship with an overpowering partner. Patient is failing out of school, can’t get out of bed in the mornings for classes, and is overwhelmed with decision making. Patient does not have a good support system outside of partner. Patient reports feeling depressed and anxious. Assign a name (make one up) and gender to the patient in the above case. Now, imagine the patient’s lifestyle, culture, neighborhood, relatives, etc. (be creative). Imagine the patient’s story. We have a panel of experts, each with a different contemporary perspective, who will be given the case based on your story. Quote each expert’s opinion on the underlying reason for Patient’s current functioning. Limit your writing to 3-4 sentences per perspective. Be clear and concise. Identify the perspective and then explain. Here’s an example: • Evolutionary View “Well, this is clearly a matter of survival of the fittest - poor adaptation and weak survival instincts. Those who are capable of dealing with the stressors will go on to do well academically and in relationships and enable the survival of their genes. Some people thrive and other collapse under stress, as in Max’s case.”

Diversity in Psychology
Why is diversity in the field of psychology important? I already know that it is good to get different perspectives, so you can’t say that. Sometimes, this can be a sensitive topic. Often, it’s because people don’t stop to think about the real value of meaningful diversity – not to fill quotas. Write 3-4 sentences on this issue depicting your understanding.

Lester Hollar is vice president for human resources for a large manufacturing company. In recent years, he has noticed an increase in absenteeism that he thinks is related to the general health of the employees. Years ago, in an attempt to improve the situation, he began a fitness program in which employees exercise during their lunch hour. To evaluate the program, he selected a random sample of eight participants and found the number of days each was absent in the six months before the exercise program began and in the last six months. Below are the results. Use a 0.05 significance level and determine if it is reasonable to conclude that the number of absences has decline? Use this information to solve the following questions.
A. What is the null hypothesis statement for this problem?
B. What is the alternative hypothesis statement for this problem?
C. What is alpha for this analysis?
D. What is the most appropriate test for this problem? (choose one of the following)
a. t-Test: Paired Two Sample for Means
b. t-Test: Two-Sampled Assuming Equal Variances
c. t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances
d. z-Test: Two Sample for Means
E. What is the value of the test statistic for the most appropriate analysis?
F. What is the lower bound value of the critical statistic? If one does not exist (i.e. is not applicable for this type analysis), document N/A as your response.
G. What is the upper bound value of the critical statistic? If one does not exist (i.e. is not applicable for this type analysis), document N/A as your response.
H. Is it reasonable to conclude that the number of absences has decline? (choose one of the following)
a. Yes
b. No
I. What is the p-value for this analysis? (Hint: Use this value to double check your conclusion)
