Evaluate the following clients and their needs.

1,000-1,500-words that clearly demonstrate your understanding of the prompt. Essays should be 5 or more paragraphs with a clear introduction, thesis statement and conclusion, written in APA format (APAstyle.org).

Evaluate the following clients and their needs. Write a multi-paragraph essay analyzing 3 clients, and then recommending the ideal components and software for the client using the following considerations: Form factor, processing power, memory (RAM), secondary storage, input devices, output devices, system software, and application software. Use product details and names to illustrate your understanding.

Client #1 often travels with a computer for work. Primary concern is battery life, software to demonstrate company products to customers, using standardized applications to share documents with customers, and ability to synchronize communication with a smartphone.

Client #2 wants a computer to play the latest state of the art games. Primary concern is compatibility with latest games, graphic output, and performance when playing the games.

Client #3 is a free-lance developer for network applications based on open source languages. Primary concern is reliability, cost of software, compatibility with open source languages, and satisfactory performance.

Explain why researchers who find that a difference is not statistically significant cannot assume that no difference exists.

Option 1
Researchers were interested in whether the use of biases in reasoning depended upon a person\’s intelligence. The researchers divided their sample of college freshman into two groups: those of higher intelligence and those of lower intelligence. They then gave both groups of students a test of reasoning.
a. If the researchers reject the null hypothesis, what is their conclusion?

b. If the researchers do not reject the null hypothesis, what is their conclusion?

c. If the researchers make a type I error, what does this mean?

d. If the researchers make a type II error, what does this mean?

Option #2:Statistically significant difference refers to a difference that is unlikely to have occurred by chance, given the size of the difference, the sample size, and the consistency of the scores (standard deviation). Explain why researchers who find that a difference is not statistically significant cannot assume that no difference exists. (This was discussed in the notes for unit 7.) For example, researchers were trying to determine if drug XXX, administered during infancy, resulted in cognitive impairments. They identified 10 children who had taken drug XXX as infants and tested the IQ score for these children. The average IQ score for these children was 90.8. They compared that to the national average, which is 100, with a standard deviation of 15. Based on these numbers, they calculated a z statistic of – 1.94. (See calculation below.) This calculated value of z does not exceed the critical value of z at the .05 level of significance (1.96), so the researchers cannot reject the null hypothesis; the difference is not statistically significant. Does this prove that drug XXX is safe? That is, since the difference was not found to be statistically significant, can we conclude that children that were treated with drug XXX were no different in measured intelligence than those who were not exposed to drug XXX? Explain why or why not.

Define Baroque and Classicism.

Define Baroque and Classicism. Then, using these definitions, write a paper that contrasts the Baroque art of Bernini (e.g., Ecstasy of St. Teresa, in The Making of the West) with the Classicism of Poussin (e.g., Discovery of Achilles on Skyros, in The Making of the West). You might want to google other images by these artists to support your ideas.

Read about the (3) three approaches to managing stress. Discuss and summarize the article and the three approaches.

Go to the Mindtools site (http://www.mindtools.com/pages/main/newMN_TCS.htm) and search the Stress Management link. Click on Managing Stress (Create Calm in your Career). Read about the (3) three approaches to managing stress. Discuss and summarize the article and the three approaches. Be sure to integrate your discussion about the article with what is provided in your textbook about stress. Provide an example of how you could apply each of these approaches to your life.

**textbook is Rathus \”Psych\”. Can use the edition you I think it is the 2nd edition.
Grading for will be based on

How well you summarize the article and its three approaches (up to 10 possible points)
Evidence of integrating information found in the textbook and other sources (up to 10 possible points)

Music and its influence

Synthesize what you have learned about media and society in this course through the writing of this final paper about music and its influences. Music is a medium that has shaped the ages. As noted throughout your texts, social movements have existed and evolved through many methods and vehicles. Music is one of those vehicles and music represents more than entertainment. It has spoken for generations, and exemplified belief systems.

For your final paper assignment, you are to write a 4-5 page research essay (excluding APA title page, appendix, and bibliography) that addresses the following questions and contexts. In this paper, explore the relationship of music to each decade from the 1960s through 2000-2010. Your paper should discuss high profile events or movements that happened in each decade and for each decade pick a song that personifies or represents the primary mood of the decade. In the essay:

cite examples of how activism and social justice are exemplified through music
show how technology and social media influenced the listeners reactions
The summary portion of the essay (perhaps at least 3/4 page of the entire essay) should draw connections between the decades and synthesize your findings. For instance, discuss what are commonalities of movements and people who are represented throughout the decades? Are these songs anthems for each decade or do the stand the test of time with other generations? Are there common threads that connect some decades with others?

Grading Guidelines

identify events in each decade
explain how events are connected to what the song represents
show how lyrics are used in the messaging (if full lyrics are used in the paper, they must be attached as an appendix and do not count in the 4-5 total pages)
help justify your opinions with 3-5 credible sources with proper source citation throughout the paper and in the bibliography
utilize terminology from the course readings when applicable
show how technology and social media or other media outlets influenced the listeners reactions
appropriate grammar and structure; college level writing
the summary is appropriate length and draws connections between the decades and synthesizes the findings, such as what are the commonalities of the movements and people represented and addresses the question, are these songs only anthems for each individual decade or do they also provide representation for and transfer to, other generations and decades?

Support your responses with research from the Learning Resources. Use APA in-text citations where necessary, and cite any outside sources that you use. Create an APA Bibliography at the end of your document. Add an APA title page and reference sheet.
