A psychologist wants to determine if aging has an impact on depression. It is known that the general population scores a 41 on a standardized depression test where a higher score indicates more depression. The psychologist obtains a sample of individuals that are all over 67 years old. What can the psychologist conclude with an α of 0.01? The data are below.

a) What is the appropriate test statistic?
---Select--- na z-test One-Sample t-test Independent-Samples t-test Related-Samples t-test

b)
Population:
---Select--- aging standardized depression test depression elderly general population
Sample:
---Select--- aging standardized depression test depression elderly general population

c) Compute the appropriate test statistic(s) to make a decision about H₀.
(Hint: Make sure to write down the null and alternative hypotheses to help solve the problem.)
p-value =  ; Decision:  ---Select--- Reject H0 Fail to reject H0

d) Using the SPSS results, compute the corresponding effect size(s) and indicate magnitude(s).
If not appropriate, input and/or select "na" below.
d =  ;   ---Select--- na trivial effect small effect medium effect large effect
r² =  ;   ---Select--- na trivial effect small effect medium effect large effect

e) Make an interpretation based on the results.

The elderly are significantly more depressed than the population.

The elderly are significantly less depressed than the population.    

The elderly did not significantly differ on depression than the population

It seems to be very common sense to not have HR practices that are competing with one another. Why does this happen and what would be your recommendations to managers to try to avoid this scenario?

Provide examples from your work experiences in which incongruent HR practices existed. What was the impact on performance, motivation, and turnover?

P3-6 (Algo) Analyzing the Effects of Transactions Using T-Accounts, Preparing an Income Statement, and Evaluating the Net Profit Margin Ratio LO3-4, 3-5, 3-6

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Following are account balances (in millions of dollars) from a recent StateEx annual report, followed by several typical transactions. Assume that the following are account balances on May 31 (end of the prior fiscal year):

These accounts are not necessarily in good order and have normal debit or credit balances. Assume the following transactions (in millions, except for par value) occurred the next fiscal year beginning June 1 (the current year):

1. Provided delivery service to customers, who paid $13,390 in cash and owed $41,504 on account.
2. Purchased new equipment costing $3,914; signed a long-term note.
3. Paid $12,664 cash to rent equipment and aircraft, with $6,736 for rent this year and the rest for rent next year.
4. Spent $1,344 cash to repair facilities and equipment during the year.
5. Collected $38,685 from customers on account.
6. Repaid $390 on a long-term note (ignore interest).
7. Issued 260 million additional shares of $0.10 par value stock for $40 (that’s $40 million).
8. Paid employees $15,276 for work during the year.
9. Purchased spare parts, supplies, and fuel for the aircraft and equipment for $13,764 cash.
10. Used $7,650 in spare parts, supplies, and fuel for the aircraft and equipment during the year.
11. Paid $1,264 on accounts payable.
12. Ordered $136 in spare parts and supplies.

ABC drug company has hired you as a consultant to hire the following positions:

1. Production Supervisor (Factory)
2. Health and Safety Specialist
3. Financial Analyst
4. HRIS (Human Resource Information System) Specialist
5. Corporate Communication Director
6. Recruiter

ABC wants you to independently develop the job specification (KSAOs) of the jobs, and submit a proposal as how you would like to recruit, screen and then conduct employment testing prior to the final employment interview.

Instruction: for any four job of your choice from the above list and prepare the following:

1. Develop a job specification (KSAOs) of your picked job.

(if you are not sure about the job description and specification of your picked job, you can do some research in the internet using NOC, O*Net or other available resources. These specifications may vary from student to student. Its ok)

Based on your developed job specification (KSAOs) and course learning (lecture, text, class activities) answer the following:

2. Propose suitable recruitment sources (not more than 4) explaining the reasons behind your choices.

3. Propose a screening strategy, outlining each stage of screening and the resources and tools to be used. (Here you need to assume a reasonable volume of applications that you expect to receive)

4. Propose suitable employment tests for the screened candidates (not more than 4) with justifications and legal implications for using them.

5. Timing of recruitment plan indicating each stage of your initiatives up-to the completion of employment testing (Here, again, you need to have your estimates of candidates in each stage)

In mathematics, the notation n! represents the factorial of the nonnegative integer n. The factorial of n is the product of non-negative numbers from 1 to n.

Design a program that asks the user to enter a nonnegative integer and then displays the factorial of that number.

• Module main. Asks the user to enter a non-negative integer. A loop is used to require user input until a nonnegative number is entered. Once a nonnegative number is entered, the integer is passed to Module factorial.

• Module factorial. Accepts a non-negative integer from Module main and uses a loop to calculate the factorial of that number. The number resulting from each step of the calculation will be written to an output file products.dat. The following numbers would be written to the output file for 7!

42
210
840
2520
5040

Module readFactorial. Changes the status of products.dat to an input file. Reads and displays all numbers in the file. The final number should be labeled as the solution to the problem.

Expected Input/Output

Your results should be similar to the following:

Please enter a non-negative integer: -5

The number must be non-negative.

Please enter a non-negative integer: 0

The number must be non-negative.

Please enter a non-negative integer. 7

Following are intermediary calculations for 7 factorial:

42
210
840
2520
5040

7 factorial is 5040.

Please use java to generate the program. And must have these modules and use these guidelines!!!

Please answer ASAP

• Q2 Problem description

n (n is odd) people sitting around a round table playing a game. In this situation, everyone has a left neighbour and a right neighbour. At the beginning, each of them is holding a whiteboard with an integer number. Now, they are playing a game consisting of several rounds. In each round, everyone will first look at the numbers of his/her left neighbour and right neighbour, then calculate the average of the two numbers, replace the number on his/her whiteboard with the average finally. The game terminates when any one has to write a non-integer number on his/her whiteboard.

Given the number of people, the number of passed rounds and the integer numbers on their whiteboards at this moment, you are asked the integer numbers on their whiteboards at the very beginning. The number of rounds increases by 1 when changing the number on the whiteboard and new numbers are all integers.

• Input & output requirements

Input the number of people n and the number of rounds t on the first line. On the next line are numbers on their whiteboards after t rounds.

Output the integer numbers on their whiteboards at the very beginning.

• Sample input
