Ethics in business relationships include both the external and internal relationships that develop around the organization. For this assignment, you will focus on the internal relationships that develop inside the organization. Studies have indicated the more positive the environment within the organization, the more productive the employees.

Research one or a combination of these job-related topics found within organizations: job discrimination; sexual harassment; bullying or unsafe working conditions.

1. Briefly describe the issue.
2. Analyze the impact on overall morale, relationships within the organization and ultimately overall productivity levels.
3. Research a minimum of one company that was caught up in this type of issue.
4. What best practices might a company implement to avoid negative behavior within their organization?
5. How would you rate the ethical practices of the company that you chose (excellent, fair or poor)? Explain.

Your response should include an introduction, thesis statement, and a clear discussion of the questions/topics above. It should be a minimum of two double-spaced pages. You are required to use at least two credible references. All sources used must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations and be cited per APA guidelines.

In a five-page essay, you will discuss the influence that alcohol has had on societies and individuals.

Alcohol addiction is a common malady across many countries and cultures in the world. Some cultures encourage the use of alcohol as a part of social ritual while others ban its use entirely. In this assignment, you will conduct research on one of the following cultural groups to understand their use of alcohol. Select one group from the following choices: Native Americans, Eastern European, Western European, Saudi Arabian, or South Koreans. Your paper must use one of the listed populations to earn credit.

In the first part of the paper, explain how alcohol affects the body/brain. Summarize the dangers of alcohol abuse on individuals and society. Then, in the second part of the paper, describe alcohol use in a specific culture . Use the Library to find at least three studies of alcohol use by the chosen culture. Explain how members of that culture view alcohol use, alcoholism, and treatment for alcoholism.

In the second part of the paper, provide examples of how members of the selected culture transmit their attitudes about alcohol to other members of their culture. Find examples of advertising, traditions, and/or stories that either encourage or discourage the use of alcohol. How do these messages influence the trends of use in that society?

Explain how alcohol use has either served or hurt the people in your selected cultural group. .

Focus your paper on the following ideas:

Part One (at least two pages)

1. Describe how the body and brain can be damaged from the use of too much alcohol.
2. What are the dangers of addiction for individuals and society?
3. Evaluate the ethics of Antabuse (Disulfiram) prescription with clients diagnosed with Alcohol Use Disorder, severe.

Part Two (at least two pages)

1. Provide a specific example of how members of one of these cultural groups (Native Americans, Eastern European, Western European, Saudi Arabian, or South Koreans)) communicate their beliefs about alcohol to encourage or discourage drinking (e.g. cultural norms). Then, describe how those messages help to form the beliefs about alcohol and treatment of the selected group.
2. Research the trends of use in the selected culture (within the last twenty years). Describe the rates of use and treatment (e.g. increase or decrease) and explain why the rates have changed or stayed the same.
3. In the summary, provide reflection about how the personal beliefs and values of the addiction professional impacts treatment of members of the selected group.

Each paper should include:

• A title page
• The paper itself (the “discussion”) body of the paper
• Citations formatted according to the most recent edition of the APA manual
• Use standard margins: 1″ on all sides.
• Use standard 12-point font size, Times New Roman or Arial.
• Use standard double-spacing: average of 22 lines per page, and between 20 and 24 lines per page.
• Use left-aligned text. Do not right-justify.
• A reference page

Question – 1

In chapter1, the focus was on targeting five communities that make up the core field for ICT-enabled policy-making.  Name those five communities involved, and briefly explain to support your answer?

Q1 – Who are these five communities? 

• identify and name the five communities,
• provide a short narrative for each,
• provide substantive input to three other colleague’s response to the DF questions,
• DON’T COPY and PASTE responses into the DF from textbooks and any other digital Internet sources,
• 2.5 points will be earned for correct responses

Question-2

After reading through the Chapters, its reasonable to state that, Koliba and Zia (2015) observed that advancements in high-speed computing, digitization of data and improved collaboration across informatics project platforms create the need for quality simulation modeling education for two types of public servants.

Q1 – Who are these public servants? 

• identify and name these two types of public servants,
• provide a short narrative of why it’s important for these servants to receive this education,
• provide substantive input to three other colleague’s response to the DF questions,
• DON’T COPY and PASTE responses into the DF from textbooks and any other digital Internet sources,
• 1.25 points will be earned for correct responses

According to Chalmers et al. (1995, p. 173), validation of a simulation against empirical data is not about comparing “the real world” and the simulation output; but it is a comparison of what is observed as the real world with what is observed as the output.  In this scenario, both are constructions of observers and their views concerning relevant agents and their attributes (Chalmers et al., 1995). Constructing reality and simulation are just two-way of an observer seeing the world. The issue of objective, formation is not normally considered by computer scientists relying on the standard view: data is “organized” by a human programmer who appropriately fits them into the chosenrepresentational structure. In most cases, researchers apply their prior knowledge of the nature of the problem to hand-code a representation of the data into a near-optimal form.

Q2 – In consideration of the constructionist’s views regarding the quality of social simulation as an example of research-based and policy modeling approach, what happens when the possibility of validating a simulation by comparing it with empirical data from the “real world” is questioned? 

• provide a short and clear narrative with an explanation of what happens,
• provide substantive input to three other colleague’s response to the DF questions,
• DON’T COPY and PASTE responses into the DF from textbooks and any other digital Internet sources,
• 1.25 points will be earned for correct responses
