Missed Questionsweek 2 Quiz8 There Are Dozens Of Personality Tests A
Week 2 Quiz #8. There are dozens of personality tests available on the World Wide Web. One test, scored on a scale of 0 to 200, is designed to give an indication of how “personable” the test taker is, with higher scores indicating more “personability.” Suppose that scores on this test have a mean of 95 and a standard deviation of 24. Complete the following statements about the distribution of scores on this personality test:
- a. According to Chebyshev’s theorem, at least (what percentage) ______ of the scores lie between 59 and 131.
- b. According to Chebyshev’s theorem, at least (what percentage) ______ of the scores lie between 47 and 143.
- c. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately (what percentage) of the scores lie between 47 and 143.
- d. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately 68% of the scores lie between ___ and ___.
Week 2 Homework #1. There are dozens of personality tests available on the World Wide Web. One test, scored on a scale of 0 to 200, is designed to give an indication of how “personable” the test taker is, with higher scores indicating more “personability.” Suppose that scores on this test have a mean of 106 and a standard deviation of 19. Complete the following statements about the distribution of scores on this personality test:
- e. According to Chebyshev’s theorem, at least (what percentage) ______ of the scores lie between 68 and 144.
- f. According to Chebyshev’s theorem, at least (what percentage) ______ of the scores lie between 77.5 and 134.5.
- g. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately (what percentage) of the scores lie between 68 and 144.
- h. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately 99.7% of the scores lie between ___ and ___.
Additional Data and Scenarios for Distribution Analysis and Probability
2. A major cab company in Chicago has computed its mean fare from O’Hare Airport to the Drake Hotel to be $28.57, with a standard deviation of $3.21. Based on this information, complete the following statements about the distribution of the company’s fares:
- a. According to Chebyshev’s theorem, at least 8/99 (about 89%) of the fares lie between ____ dollars and ____ dollars. Round your answer to 2 decimals.
- b. According to Chebyshev’s theorem, at least (what percentage) ____ of the fares lie between 22.15 dollars and 34.99 dollars.
- c. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately (what percentage) of the fares lie between 22.15 dollars and 34.99 dollars.
- d. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately 68% of the fares lie between ___ dollars and ___ dollars.
8. An ordinary (fair) coin is tossed 3 times. Outcomes are triples of “heads” and “tails” (e.g., hht, ttt). For each outcome, R is the random variable counting the number of tails. For example, for outcome tht, R(tht) = 2. Suppose that the random variable X is defined as X = R² - R - 1. The outcomes and their X values are:
| Outcome | Value of X |
|---|---|
| hht | |
| thh | |
| tht | |
| tth | |
| hhh | |
| ttt | |
| htt | |
| hth |
Particularly, for case analysis of binomial probabilities:
Sample Question:
A new surgery is successful 85% of the time. If 10 surgeries are randomly sampled, what is the probability that more than 8 are successful? Provide your computation to at least four decimal places, rounding to two decimal places.
Other Statistical Measures and Data Analysis
13. The red blood cell counts (in 10^2 + 3 cells per microliter) of a healthy adult measured on 6 days: 52, 48, 49, 50, 55, 52. Find the standard deviation of this sample, rounded to two decimal places.
16. An investment company's claim states that last year's average profit per client was 10%. Based on this mean, which of the following must be true?
- a. Two years ago, some clients made at least 10% profit.
- b. Last year, all clients made less than 17% profit.
- c. Last year, at least one client made exactly 10% profit.
- d. Fewer than half of clients made 10% or less profit.
- e. At least one client made at least 10% profit.
- f. None of the above statements is true.
Assessment and Diagnostic Process in Clinical Practice
This section includes a comprehensive initial clinical assessment form covering personal data, presenting problems, psychiatric history, trauma, violence history, psychiatric review, drug and medical history, psychosocial factors, family background, and risk assessment. It incorporates DSM diagnostic criteria, global functioning assessment, and clinician's recommendations. The structure supports detailed evaluation for mental health diagnosis and treatment planning, adapted from Shea (1998), emphasizing thoroughness in psychiatric interviewing, diagnosis, and case formulation.
Case Study Analysis in Clinical Practice
This assignment involves developing a detailed case and treatment plan for a client encountered in practice, with three parts:
- Part A: Clinical Assessment: Record assessment details, diagnosis, history, and psychosocial factors aligned with the Wheeler textbook format. Conclude with a one-page, realistic client description based on research and clinical guidelines.
- Part B: Therapy Session: Design a therapy session addressing the client’s issues, demonstrating professional therapeutic communication, empathy, and self-awareness. The transcript must be at least 15 minutes long, incorporating realistic client responses and empathic feedback.
- Part C: Therapeutic Intervention: Research and describe 3-5 evidence-based interventions, combining medication and non-medication approaches (e.g., client-centered, cognitive behavioral therapy). Justify choices with current literature.
Ensure a comprehensive, Evidence-Based Approach throughout, integrating therapeutic theories and empirical data to optimize client outcomes.
