Assignment: Capella Effect of Covid 19 E Learning on Student Mental Health Research Proposal

Question Description
I have added a file that gives detailed explanation of the assessment. I have an assignment to write a 5 chapter research proposal to finish my Masters in General Psychology. This is the first of 5 assignments. This is a proposal. The actual research does not have to be done.

The file that I downloaded also includes my areas of interest for this proposal, however am willing to entertain other areas related to psychology, online professorship, or even nursing and psychology. Open for discussion.

Take a look and let me know what you think. Also need to know if you are able to complete all 5 assignments. I have up to 12 weeks for the final but would prefer to get it done much sooner than that.

Thanks so much!

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

A population I will likely serve as an advanced registered nurse that I think is particularly vulnerable to issues of health disparity/inequity is those with physical and intellectual disabilities. This is a subject that is rather close to my heart as my mother and a couple other of my family members have physical and intellectual disabilities. Examples of these disabilities would be Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, spinal cord injuries, Downs Syndrome, and autism to name a few. Right now, I work in oncology but a way that I can contribute to health promotion and disease prevention for those with physical and intellectual disabilities is taking special consideration when education them about the disease and treatment plan as well as making sure they have access to plenty of resources. Statistics show that anytime an individual with one of these disabilities is admitted to a hospital they do not receive the same level of care as someone without. The Disability Rights California agency has done research that shows people with disabilities are at least for to ten times for likely to be victims of abuse and neglect than people without disabilities (2022).

From a global perspective the United States does not provide the worst or best healthcare for those with disabilities so it could be a lot worse. Something extra special about this population is not only do these individuals have a disability but they could also fall into another category that is underserved depending on their race, economic status, sexuality, or other factors. I found a book titled Communities in Action Pathways to Health Equity and although I did not read it all I read quite a bit of it as it has a lot of good information and perspective. I really encourage everyone to go take a look if you are interested. It discusses that in America health equity and equal opportunity are linked, and the burdens of disease and poor health and the benefits of wellness and good health are inequitably distributed among groups of people (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2017). In one of the chapters, they use the analogy of a fishbowl when describing the relationship between an individual and the conditions in which one lives (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2017). If the bowl is dirty or cracked where the fish live than the fish can never reach full health potential, no matter what effort they put in (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2017). The same with humans that if we only address individual behaviors without considering context, they will never be able to get to their full health potential (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2017). So whenever I take care of a patient with a disability I am not just treating their disability, I am treating them as a whole person.

Discussion Questions (DQ)

Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.
Weekly Participation

Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.
APA Format and Writing Quality

Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.
Use of Direct Quotes

I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.
As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.
It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.
LopesWrite Policy

For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.
Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.
Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?
Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.
Late Policy

The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.
Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.
If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.
I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.
As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.
Communication

Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me:
Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.
Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
