What five physical areas between people does differential psychology focus on identifying? Is it important for managers to understand their employees’
differences? Why or why not? Explain your viewpoint by giving a minimum of two specific examples.

Leslie Snow manages a team of five help desk operators. The cubicles of the operators are located a floor below Leslie’s office. Each operator is required
to log help desk calls into a team database. This database tracks the nature of a problem, the length of the call, and whether the problem was fixed or
sent to the engineering department for further investigation.

Leslie has a busy schedule, and it is not possible for her to monitor the performance of her team members sitting on a different floor. Therefore she
decides to assess their performance solely on the basis of reports queried from the database.

Based on what you have learned about criterion deficiency and contamination, analyze Leslie’s performance measurement strategy. Suggest three ways for
better performance measurement for Leslie’s help desk team.

please please i need help for the following assignment for pstchology

Your group has been hired by an advertising firm that is developing a series of commercials for family-oriented products geared toward the entire family. They want to develop a series of commercials that will target family members at various life stages. Your group needs to thoroughly describe Erikson’s theory of Psychosocial development. In your description of each stage, identify and analyze a television, movie, or literary character for each stage of the theory. Discuss how that character typifies the stage and how the character is resolving the conflict. The marketing firm will use this information as they develop commercials targeting each developmental stage. Finally, provide a review of three recent studies relating to EriksonÂ’s theory of development from the list below.

The advertising firm has requested that you submit a 4 to 5 page report summarizing your research in this area. Therefore, your group should submit one combined Word document that conforms to the following directions:

· Identify a character at each stage.

· Choose three of the following studies found in the Library article search engine Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection.
