Discussion Board 1-3 (ONLY 4 sentences to 1 paragraph)

 Discussion Board 1

Jamie, a 7-year-old boy, was playing in his backyard when a neighbor's large dog suddenly      jumped over the fence and barked loudly at him. Jamie was extremely frightened and started crying as the dog approached. Jamie's mother quickly intervened and took him inside, comforting him until he calmed down. This incident caused Jamie to develop a fear of dogs.

Reflective Questions:

Conditioned Stimulus (CS): After the incident, what started to cause Jamie to feel fear, even without the UCS present?

Conditioned Response (CR): What is Jamie's learned reaction to the CS?

As a helpful reminder:

Conditioned response (CR) is a response caused by the conditioned stimulus

Conditioned stimulus (CS) is stimulus that elicits a response due to its being paired with an unconditioned stimulus

Please answer each question in one short paragraph. Type your answer in the box below and then complete the Academic Honesty Policy declaration to earn the grade.

Discussion Board 2

 Identify and explain what type of memory errors are being experienced in the following scenarios:

  1. Mark's recollection of his high school years is overly positive, influenced by his current happiness and nostalgia.
  2. Jane couldn't recall her new colleague's name because she didn't pay enough attention when they were introduced.

As helpful reminder:

Encoding failure occurs when information fails to be encoded into long-term memory due to insufficient attention or rehearsal, resulting in the inability to recall or recognize the information later.

Bias is how feelings and views of the world distort the memory of past events.

Please answer each question in one short paragraph. Type your answer in the box below and then complete the Academic Honesty Policy declaration to earn the grade. 

Discussion Board 3

 Reflect on a situation from your own life where you had to use one of the three types of intelligence—analytical, practical, or creative intelligence. Describe the situation and explain how you applied that type of intelligence to solve a problem or achieve a goal. How did your chosen type of intelligence help you succeed, and what did you learn from the experience?

As a helpful reminder:

Analytical Intelligence: Analytical intelligence involves solving problems and analyzing information through logical reasoning. People strong in this type of intelligence excel in critical thinking, abstract reasoning, and drawing valid conclusions. It is often assessed through standardized tests and academic performance.

Practical Intelligence: Practical intelligence, or "street smarts," is the ability to adapt to real-world environments and navigate social and practical challenges. It includes skills like interpersonal communication, decision-making, and problem-solving in daily life. Practical intelligence is crucial for success in work, relationships, and personal life.

Creative Intelligence: Creative intelligence is the ability to generate novel ideas and solutions. Individuals with high creative intelligence show originality, flexibility, and imaginative thinking. This intelligence is essential for innovation, artistic expression, and adapting to change.

    Directions

    For this project, you will reflect on recognizing characteristics of personality theory in a professional context and its importance. A successful career approach uses strong emotional intelligence skills, including knowing yourself and your needs, as well as being observant of your team around you.

    You will create a professional blog post highlighting what you have learned about personality theory applied to yourself in the workplace. The purpose of the post is to promote and encourage similar reflection from peers. You can include personal examples or take a more hypothetical response in your blog post. The Project Two Milestone you completed in Module Five has helped prepare you for this assignment.

    You must address the rubric criteria listed below in 3 to 5 sentences each:

    1. Personality and the Individual
      1. Describe how the results from your Big Five personality assessment provide insights into how you perform work or the type of work that interests you most.
      2. Describe a type of work setting that may be a good fit for your personality (remote, group, hospital, private practice, open setting, privacy). Justify your answer.
      3. Describe the traits that you would seek in your ideal manager. Justify your response.
    2. Personality and Teams
      1. Describe how your behavior could shift as a result of the type of work you are doing (group work, individual work, etc.).
      2. Describe which traits may be viewed as strengths in a team setting, and how those traits may be a strength in one situation and not in another.
      3. Describe an example of the person-situation debate in the workplace.
      4. Describe how you would handle potential conflict with a coworker and how your personality traits play a role in this situation.
    3. Personality, Stress, and Coping
      1. Describe how you could approach differentiating between a team member’s personality traits and personality states, especially when it relates to stress.
      2. Describe an approach you could take to reduce a peer’s stress at work. Justify your response.
      3. Explain how you would determine whether your own stress in the workplace is too high and the steps you would take to reduce it. Justify your response.

    What to Submit

    To complete this project, you must submit the following:

    INSTRUCTIONS AND ORDER ATTACHED

    DUE DATE AUGUST 14, 2025 NO LATER

    TOPIC: The Impact of Telehealth on Patient Outcomes in Primary Care

    TOPIC: The Impact of Telehealth on Patient Outcomes in Primary Care

    Decision-Making Process Paper  Instructions

    In this assignment, you will be writing a 5 pages paper identifying, comparing and contrasting at least 3 different decision-making approaches of care from a multidisciplinary perspective using a pertinent and significant topic in nursing (examples might include nursing shortage and nurse turn-over, nurse staffing ratios, unit closures and restructuring, use of contract employees (i.e., registry and travel nurses), continuous quality improvement and patient satisfaction, and magnet designation or another current and relevant nursing issue)

     You are required to use APA 7th edition format and the page count does not include title page or reference page. Reflect on your own decision- making practices and the implications this will have regarding differing approaches taken of nursing leaders and staff nurses/clinical practitioners in decision making within to issues in practice. To complete this assignment, do the following:  

    1. Select and describe an issue in nursing that impacts nurses at all levels from bedside to advanced practice. Make sure to provide an adequate background and its significance to all levels of nursing using a strong review of the literature. Additionally, this should include a thorough literature review that provides a good understanding of what the cause of this problem is; what is suggested to address this problem. Essentially, this review must support your choices of the decision-making models and this needs to include how all levels of nursing practice (the bedside nurse to the APN are impacted by the problem).

    2. Identify how you would expect a nurse leader/manager, a bedside/ staff nurse and an Advanced practice nurse (CNO or NP) to address

    your selected issue using at least 3different decision-making approaches which are clearly supported by the literature review. This must first include aa detailed analysis/overview of the selected decision making models and how they are used in practice. Then a detailed analysis of how these decision-making approaches/models would address the problem/along with a detailed analysis of how each of the three selected models would be applied to address the selected issue/problem making sure to incorporate this at all levels of practice. One of the decision-making models may be more applicable to the bedside nurse; whereas the other more applicable to the APN; however, all levels of nursing practice need to be addressed with at least one of the chosen 3 decision-making models. However, this does not mean that each decision-making model will apply to all levels of practice only that in this discussion needs to include how each level of nursing practice would utilize the decision-making model to address the problem. For instance,one decision making model may apply to the bedside nurse; the second decision making model may be more applicable at the level of APN (CNO, NP, etc) and the other decision-making model may be best applied to the nurse manager. This section should be detailed; meaning specific, well thought out, realistic solutions of how the nurse (at the level identified; this may include more than one level for the same decision-making model or not) would address the problem using the decision-making model is provided and well supported by the literature. of the benefits and limitations of various decision-making approaches that are applied appropriately to the level of nursing practice to address the selected issue/problem. This is informed from course readings, literature, clinical scenarios and other evidence-based and scholarly sources.

    3. Prioritize the best decision-making approach/model to address the selected problem that is grounded in best practice. This should provide a well-supported rationale for this choice that includes a good comparison and contrasting of the 3 chosen decision-making models that clearly illustrates why the choice was made, that is consistent with the decision making model and how it would address the chosen topic or problem.

    4. Identify a possible funding source that would addresses your approach to solving the problem. For instance, if the best approach to solving the nurse-to-patient ratio problem is through the use of SDM and shared governance, perhaps you may seek a local funding source to provide you with funding to implement a small EBP or research project that would be funded by a local nursing organization such as Sigma Theta Tau or perhaps if it was geared more towards assessing the value of this model towards NP in practice than seeking a local organization that supports funding for projects being implemented by practicing NP? If seeking money for research this would need to be overseen by a nurse with a DNP or a PhD or someone with the credentials to do so that are part of their scope of practice. Consider looking at federal, state, or local organizations. For example: There are many grants available through the CDC,HRSA, etc. Again, this need to be specifically applied with sufficient details

    Use at least 10 references other than your main text. Uses APA 7th edition formatting.
