Parental Efforts to Influence Sexual Behavior of Young Haitian Women: Implications for Addressing the Risk of HIV/AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs). The Internet Journal of World Health and Societal Politics. 2014 Volume 9 Number 1. Abstract Background: In 2010, HIV/AIDS was ranked as the leading cause of disease burden in 21 countries including Haiti. Addressing the issues of HIV is complex and associated with the dynamic of personal relationships, which are further complicated by the issues of gender inequality in these relationships. Furthermore, in the Haitian culture, women often fail to have open discussions about sexuality and sexual health and especially the issue of forced sex. This is complicated by the issue of sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDs, sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) and/ or related health problems with their daughters. Parental involvement is thought to be an effective prevention strategy in behavior change. However, there is limited data regarding the level of parental contribution to sexual education and development of the young females in Haiti Objective: The study sought to determine: Haitian women’s knowledge of HIV/AIDS...

...While reflecting on particular aspects of life that could benefit from persuasion, I was instantly drawn to the long-standing issue of teenage driving. More specifically, addressing teen’s attitudes on the belief that texting while driving is both normal and socially acceptable. Texting while drive has become a national epidemic, with studies pointing to more than 40% of teens taking part in this high-risk behavior. Although there is no true answer to how this behavior became socially acceptable, it reflects an unaware and inconsiderate attitude of the potential repercussions of these actions. By altering this inherent attitude public safety and teen motor vehicle death rates could be greatly reduced. The overall safety and well being of many of today’s youth could be improved, leading to a more functional and beneficial society. By addressing this issue with teens, I hope to alter their belief in the psychological law of self-exception. This “wont-happen-to-me” belief seems to be highly prevalent in many of today’s youth, reflecting an attitude that does not associate the potential outcomes with their highly irresponsible actions. Although teens may be developmentally predisposed to take part in high-risk behavior, modifying this attitude regarding the social acceptance of texting while driving will yield substantial improvements in safety and well being. Although many have tried to previously address this attitude with today’s youth, few teens have been persuaded through...

...Abstract: The following paper will be written from the point of view of a manager/supervisor and will address various scenarios that may arrise concerning an employee’s behaviour and actions, and how to effectively adress them within the context of employment-at-will doctrine and the liability to the employer. Scenario 1: This scenario deals with an employee who has failed to learn the computer applications that are basic to the job requirements. The scenario assumes that the employee has received a few months of training and support, yet is unable to complete the required tasks in an efficient and effective manner. In analyzing this scenario, the first step I would take in addressing the issue at hand, is to formally counsel the employee in writing, as the information presented does not state if that has been done. The counseling would serve multiple purposes. First, it would serve as a means to formally document the employee’s lack of skills, competency, and abilities, as it relates to the requirement of the job. Secondly, it would clearly delineate the expectations of the position, the criteria under which they will be evaluated, and when the next evaluation will take place. The counseling would also inform the employee that failure to improve may result in administrative action, up to and including termination. Lastly it would require the employee acknowledge via signature that they have been counseled. The reason I have chosen to take the written counseling approach...

Since their disruptive behavior took place only a day ago, and they are already disrupting today's class, it is clear that action must be taken. I would initially address them as a group. Although group intervention seems counterproductive since they have their own respective issues, we are only five minutes into the class so it is clear that they are disrupting the class as a group and must be addressed that way. The clubs that I would use when addressing the group would be a combination of a stop action and a group reminder of...

Question If more than one-third of American adults are obese, this group of Americans Body Mass Index (BMI) above 30, per Center for Disease Control (CDC), how do we prevent discrimination against them in the work place? How do we help this group of Americans obtain gainful and fulfilling employment, as well as empower them to improve their health status? Our First Lady Michelle Obama has made obesity our countries’ number one enemy. The First Lady created “Let’s Move” as her platform for combating obesity in our country. Answer The workplace is evolving in understanding and addressing obesity in their workforce. Employers are supporting healthy lifestyle changes and are leading by example in many institutions. This includes managers who are participating in their organizations’ programs in lowing their BMI through exercise and healthy lifestyles. Stress eating is another contribution to obesity in the workplace. Programs related to managing stress...

...manager must take time to fully develop and implement a plan based on positive influence. This is accomplished through self-analysis, daily efforts in role modeling and instilling positive behaviors in workers. These types of initiatives create a motivated and dedicated team. Positive Behaviors Assess yourself critically in terms of your own positive behavior. As the manager, you are the role model for your employees so you need to correct and address issues, such as pessimistic language, in a timely manner. If a negative issue comes up, it is important to address and resolve the issue in as much of a positive way as possible. Establishing and keeping a positive atmosphere and environment can take some effort. Encourage your employees to become more positive in little ways like smiling more, speaking in an upbeat tone and thanking co-workers more often for their contributions. Beyond being positive, work to keep your team enthusiastic about the project. The assigned project’s timeline is long and employees can get distracted and discouraged when the project does not seem to be making progress. Keeping the enthusiasm up can be just as challenging. Team building events can help to relieve the stresses of a long-term project. Addressing Weaknesses One of the first steps to take when addressing a team’s weaknesses is to write down all the perceived weaknesses regarding the business, the project, and the team, in particular. Take each item on the list...

...Romans and the World View By Randy E Brown Bible 425 Prof. Jerry Hall Liberty University, Lynchburg, Va Date: Introduction The Christian Life and World View according to Romans, should not be based on condemnation for those who are not in Christ Jesus. Based on the fact through Christ Jesus, the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death (verse1-2).In the early Christian Practical Issues, The Apostle Paul forms the main character in relation to examining the respective entities attached to the issue. He was charged with three different assignments which were; preaching the gospel to the gentiles, providing the church leaders with the biblical instructions and encouragements, and lastly to teach the Christian community ways to live righteously in an unsaved world. Creation Romans on creation depicts that “for since the creation of the world, God’s invisible qualities such as the external power and the divine nature can easily be witnessed as also understood from what has been made. This reflects on the essence of creation as it presents God’s internal power and divine power. In Romans 5, those that place their trusts in Christ become “brad new creature” with the old things passing away where everything becomes new. Sin The consequences of sin according to the Romans are vast in relation to undermining ability to effectively interact with others. In Romans 6:23, the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God...

...It is stated, “Domestic Violence is a global issue reaching across national boundaries as well as socio-economic, cultural, racial and class distinctions. This problem is not only widely dispersed geographically, but its incidence is also extensive, making it an accepted behavior (Kaur & Garg, 2008).” Current research has shown that this is a social problem that is impacting a diverse range of individuals in relationships despite any socio-economic and cultural factors. Knowing that this is a social problem affecting such a wide range of individuals despite any distinctions, I believed that through choosing to address this issue, I would ultimately be reaching out to a larger audience by spreading awareness as opposed to focusing on the issue alone to one group of...

...acceptable behavior (ethnoconnect.com, 2016). Healthcare providers should understand that being culturally diverse consist or more than just values and beliefs (Nursingworld.org, 2003). Healthcare providers should understand there are more facets to cultural diversity such as language, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, socio-economic status, and occupational status. In this paper, the author will discuss how the Purnell Model relates to transcultural health care. The author will also discuss the different domains of the Purnell Model and assess how each of these domains play a part in the diversity of health care. The Purnell Model is designed of different cultural expectation of healthcare professionals. It is composed of many circles. It is composed of an outer ring and three rings. The outer ring represents global society. Global society means natural disasters, world communications, and politics. The second ring represents the community. The community is a group of people sharing a common interest. The third ring represents family. Family can be defined as two or more people who are emotionally involved with each other (Salisbury.edu, 2016). The fourth ring represent person. Person can be defined as a biopsychosociocultural human being who is constantly adapting (Salisbury.edu, 2016). The twelve domains are encompassed in the person ring.

...Addressing International Legal and Ethical Issues Simulation Summary LAW/421 August 31, 2015 Addressing International Legal and Ethical Issues Simulation Summary There are a few issues that must be considered in determining the best way to resolve legal disputes in an international transaction. Change in legislation, international laws and cultural difference are among the issues to consider. An issue that must be considered is how the contract was set up. If the company chose the wrong type of law when setting up the contract, then the company will not be protecting itself legally. Another issue to consider is what process would be used to resolve the dispute. Litigation, arbitration or some other alternative option that will best benefit the organization. Litigation in international courts has a low rate of success, and there is no governing body to enforce the ruling.

...COMPARING CODES OF ETHICS 1 Comparing Codes of Ethics Kirsten Price Counseling 6306: Ethics and Legal Issues Walden University Comparing Codes of Ethics The mental health counseling profession is guided by basic ethical guidelines that outline legal and moral responsibilities. Professional standards are necessary for counselors to understand the implications of their actions and behavior in the field. Good intentions do not guarantee appropriate practice. The American Mental Health Counselors’ Association (AMHCA) and American Counseling Association (ACA) provide standards for education and training counselors to better understand their role and provide oversight of ethical and legal issues commonly experienced by counselors on a day to day basis. Similarities between AMHCA and ACA Codes of Ethics The spirit and commitment to competent application of counseling procedure and professional courtesy is the underlying theme shared by the principles and guidelines of the AMHCA and ACA ethical codes. The ACA standards in Section A regarding the Counseling Relationship explore the counselor’s relationship to the client in regards to sensitivity and the mission to safeguard the client from harm during counseling process. (ACA 2014) The AMHCA principle under I.A.1 “Primary Responsibility”, also addresses the overall goal of counselors to look out for client welfare by following appropriate process and procedure.
