Simulation quality.

You learned about three different views of simulation quality.

Suppose you lead a task force that is developing a simulation to provide strategic planning recommendations for property use zoning for a county of 750,000 residents. The zoning board and county commissioners want a simulation that allows them to assess the impact of various zoning decisions based on a variety of dynamic factors, including age, race, education, and income status. Which of the three views discussed would provide the best quality assessment for this type of simulation? How would you ensure the highest level of accuracy with your simulation, and how would you go about determining accuracy?
As indicated above, identify which of the three views discussed in the chapter that would provide the best quality assessment for the situation described above, and explain your decision. How would you ensure the highest level of accuracy with your simulation, and how would you go about determining accuracy?

Hypotheses and models surrounding drug addiction and abuse.

Use the text and other resources such as the NIDA Website to research hypotheses and models surrounding drug addiction and abuse. Discuss the positive reward (or positive reinforcement) hypothesis of drug abuse and compare it with at least one other explanation of drug abuse. How does the positive reward hypothesis compare with other models of drug abuse in your opinion? How would you use this model to treat a patient who chronically abuses methamphetamines?

Hypothesis or hypotheses on the functions of sleep

Based on your reading and research, which hypothesis or hypotheses on the functions of sleep do you agree with and why? How would you use this explanation(s) to assess a patient who has chronic insomnia, and has already had extensive treatment with hypnotic (sleep-inducing) medications?

Diet and Diet plan

For this discussion board, you will imagine that you are a nutritionist and a patient has come to you to ask for
help creating a diet plan. You will:
Create the reason as to why this patient is requesting a diet plan (i.e. weight loss, general health, training for
a sporting event, etc.). Be specific and provide relevant patient background information.
Create a diet plan for that individual – i.e. what nutrients should this individual be eating daily including
suggested daily intake. Include an example of one days’ worth of meals (if you choose to include fasting in your
diet plan, you need to thoroughly explain why and include scientific evidence that supports this decision).
Discuss why you chose this diet plan – how will it help the patient reach their goal?
Be sure to relate this directly to the digestive system and nutrition
What nutrients are included in this diet?
How will the body digest and then use those nutrients?
Include 3 reputable scientific sources that support your diet plan. Reputable sources= peer reviewed scientific
journal articles, accredited websites, or books. Google, Wikipedia, etc. are not acceptable sources. Remember
that you can use FTCC’s library website (opens in new window) to facilitate your search.
