Task: Submit to complete this assignment

A manufacturer of computer chips has a computer hardware company as its largest customer. The computer hardware company requires all of its chips to meet specifications of 1.2 cm. The vice-president of manufacturing, concerned about a possible loss of sales, assigns his production manager the task of ensuring that chips are produced to meet the specification of 1.2 cm.Based on the production run from last month, a 95% confidence interval was computed for the mean length of a computer chip resulting in:

95% confidence interval: (0.9 cm, 1.1 cm)

What are the elements that the production manager should consider in determining his company’s ability to produce chips that meet specifications?

Do the chips produced meet the desired specifications?

What reasons should the production manager provide to the vice-president to justify that the production team is meeting specifications?

How will this decision impact the chip manufacturer’s sales and net profit?

Assessing Spirituality – The Relationship between Spirituality and Mental Health

In this quantitative study, the authors attempted to investigate the possible relationship between two spirituality variables (religious coping styles and spiritual well-being) and two psychological variables (anxiety and depression). Also studied were differences between those who self-disclosed a spiritual/religious identity and those who did not. Their data analysis concluded that individuals who reported a high use of religious coping styles also reported high levels of spiritual well-being.

The authors felt a limitation of their study was in defining ‘spirituality.’ State how that can be an obstacle in doing religious counseling.

The authors state, “Spiritual well-being can clearly incorporate God into ones’ life while also incorporating self-reliance.” Is this not a seeming contradiction? Give your thoughts on this.
