My topic is: Reward as a way of motivating workers in a workplaceFollowing the APA format and the Final Project Template, prepare the “Method Section” that describes the methodology used to test your hypotheses. This should include (a) participants, (b) procedures, (c) measures and/or instruments, and (d) data analysis plan.Support your assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course. GUIDEWeek 8: Method Section (6–8 pages) For Week 8, you write the “Method Section” of your Final Project. Consider research methodologies and designs appropriate to solve your research problem. Then decide which research paradigm, i.e., qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methodology, you plan to use in your study. In addition, describe your strategies for data collection and analysis. Below are key areas you need to address to complete the Methods Section.Participants (1–2 pages) Population oDefine the population. State criteria for selecting participants. State population size (if known) or approximate/estimated size. Sample and Sampling Procedures Identify and justify the type of sampling strategy. Explain specific procedures for how the sample will be drawn. Sampling frame (Inclusion and exclusion criteria) Use a power analysis to determine sample size and include: Justification for the effect size, alpha level, and power level chosen Citation of the source of calculation or the tool used to calculate sample size Procedures (1–2 pages) Procedures For Recruitment, Participation, and Data Collection (students collecting their own data) Thoroughly describe recruiting procedures and particular demographic information that will be collected. Describe how participants will be provided informed consent. Describe how data are collected. Explain how participants exit the study (for example, debriefing procedures, etc.). Describe any follow-up procedures (such as requirements to return for follow-up interviews, treatments, etc.). Procedures For Recruitment, Participation, and Data Collection (students using archival data) Include all procedures for recruitment, participation, and/or data collection associated with the main study. Describe the bounds of the data to be extracted (e.g., records from 2005-2008). Describe the procedure for gaining access to the data. Describe necessary permissions to gain access to the data (with permission letters located in the IRB application). Measures/Instrumentation (2–3 pages) Instrumentation and Operationalization of Constructs Identify each data collection instrument and source (published or researcher produced) For published instruments provide: Name of developer(s) Appropriateness to the current study Mention of permission from developer to use which permission letter included in the appendix Published reliability and validity values relevant to their use in the study Where/with what populations used previously and how validity/reliability are/were established in the study sample For researcher-developed instruments provide: Basis for development Literature sources Other bases (such as pilot study) Evidence of reliability (internal consistency, test-retest, etc.) Evidence of construct validity Establish sufficiency of instrumentation to answer research questions For studies involving an intervention or the manipulation of the IV: Identify materials/programs applied as treatment or manipulation. Provide information on the developer of the materials/programs/manipulations. If published, state where, how, and with what populations used previously If researcher developed, state basis for development and how developed. Provide evidence that another agency will sponsor intervention studies (such as clinical interventions). Operationalization: For each variable describe: Its operational definition How each variable is measured or manipulated How the variable/scale score is calculated and what the scores represent Data Analysis Plan (1–2 pages) oIdentify software used for analyses.oProvide explanation of data cleaning and screening procedures as appropriate to the study.oRestate the research questions and hypotheses here as written in Chapter 1.oDescribe in detail the analysis plan including the elements below including:§Statistical tests that will be used to test the hypothesis§Rationale for inclusion of potential covariates / confounding variables§How results will be interpreted (key parameter estimates, confidence intervals/probability values, odds ratios, etc.)

Specialization/Mental Health CounselingText / Zunker, Vernon G. Career Counseling: A Holistic Approach, 9th Edition. Cengage Learning, 20150101. VitalBook file.Please utilize the attached template.For this assignment, you will demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of career counseling theory by choosing a career counseling theory addressed in Units 1 or 2 and applying it to the case study provided below. Approach the case study from the perspective of your individual specialization (for example, mental health counseling, school counseling, et cetera). You can embellish the case scenario as needed to help you complete the assignment.ScenarioTaneka, a 17-year-old African-American female, is a high school junior. She is the oldest of three siblings living with her single-parent mother. Her mother has worked for the past 15 years at a manufacturing plant. Her father has not been a part of Taneka's life.As the oldest child, Taneka has held major responsibilities throughout her life to support her working mother, such as caring for her younger siblings: Derrick, now age 14, and Kenya, age 12. These early duties reinforced development of her natural leadership skills. Taneka has been recognized from an early age for being mature, responsible, and dependable. As her siblings have grown, she has been able to have part-time jobs, most recently as a salesperson at a teen fashion store in the local mall. It was here that she first realized she had a knack for dealing with people, and they responded well to her—employers, co-workers, and customers alike. She was recently approached by her supervisor to consider participating in the company's employee leadership training program.This has caused Taneka to start thinking about post-secondary education possibilities. Previously she had thought college was out of her reach, due to the limited financial resources of her family and no history of anyone in her family ever attending college. As such, she had not previously given much importance to her grades. Rather than participating in extracurricular school activities, she focused on working. She is on track for graduating with her class next year and has a current grade point average of 2.05.Taneka is now questioning her previous assumption about college or other post-secondary educational possibilities, but she does not have a clear idea of what she would like to pursue as a career. Choosing a career and a post-secondary program to prepare for it, seeking financial support, and navigating the admissions procedure all remain mysteries to her.In your paper, address the following:Argue for one relevant theory to be applied to the scenario. Note: Appropriate career counseling theories include, but are not limited to, Holland, Super, Krumboltz, Gottfredson, Social Cognitive Theory, and Person-Environment-Fit.Identify the theory you chose and provide a rationale as to why you have selected this career theory.Describe the key components of your chosen career counseling theoretical framework.Analyze any challenges you might have applying this theory to the case.Propose possible approaches for addressing the challenges you identified.Be sure to include research findings that support your use of this theory (Include a minimum of one supporting reference not provided in this course).Your assignment should be 4–5 pages in length and include at least three references, including your text. Be sure to indicate your specialization in your paper. Review the Career Counseling Theory Case Study Scoring Guide to understand the grading expectations for this assignment.
