Discuss how the soundness of research methodology relates to minimizing risk in research.

/in /by

Based on the article on vulnerable populations that you researched  for the library search assigned in your studies for this unit, address  the following:

  • Identify the vulnerable population that is the subject of the  article and, using the materials from Capella’s IRB (linked in the  Resources), explain why the population is vulnerable.
  • Discuss the level of risk in the research that was conducted (minimal versus more than minimal).
  • Integrating materials from Capella’s IRB and other readings,  discuss how the level of risk can be lowered, or was lowered, if the  risk is minimal.
  • Discuss how the soundness of research methodology relates to minimizing risk in research.
  • List the persistent link for the article. Use the Persistent  Links and DOIs library guide, linked in the Resources, to learn how to  locate this information in the library databases.
  • Cite all sources in APA style and provide an APA-formatted reference list at the end of your post.

Topic 1: The video cases exploring P.F. Chang’s examine organizational commitment. In what ways does P.F. Chang’s create organizational commitment among its workers? Can this be replicated at other organizations?

Topic 2: The video case at Washburn Guitars explores motivation. Where does motivation from Washburn employees come from? Could this be replicated at a company such as WalMart or Target? Why or why not?

Topic 3: Last week, we explored the documentary about Dick Winters as an example of the five key elements of leadership. This week, let’s explore the same documentary and explore Major Winters from the perspective of emotional intelligence (EQ). Do the interviews with his followers suggest emotional intelligence for Major Winters? Why or why not? Provide examples.
